To calculate desired ending inventory, first determine the expected sales for the period and consider factors like lead time and safety stock. The formula is: Desired Ending Inventory = Expected Sales + Safety Stock - Beginning Inventory. This ensures you maintain sufficient inventory to meet demand while accounting for variability in sales and supply chain delays.
budgeted unit sales - beginning merchandise inventory + desired merchandise ending inventory.

To find the purchases figure, you typically start with the beginning inventory and add any new purchases made during the period. Then, subtract the ending inventory from this total. The formula can be summarized as: Purchases = Ending Inventory - Beginning Inventory + Cost of Goods Sold. This calculation provides insight into the amount spent on stock during the specified timeframe.

Open to buy is a method of planning and controlling retail inventory. Calculate your opening inventory balance (in units or dollars), add the in-coming (already ordered) inventory and subtract your projected sales for the period...then compare that number to your desired ending inventory amount...the difference is how much you are open to buy (inventory that should be ordered). So if you start with 100,000 and have 10,000 on order and expect sales to be 40,000 and you want your ending inventory to be 90,000...You are open to buy 20,000 90- (100 + 10 - 40) = 20
LIFO Reserve
Total material consumed amount is used for prime cost not opening inventory or ending inventory only.
goods available for sales = beginning inventory + net purchases. So net purchases = 6000 Goods available for sale - ending inventory = COGS So ending inventory = 7000
The inventory costing method that uses the costs of the oldest purchases to calculate the value of the ending inventory is the First-In, First-Out (FIFO) method. Under FIFO, it is assumed that the oldest inventory items are sold first, so the ending inventory consists of the most recently purchased items. This method often results in higher ending inventory values during periods of rising prices.
