Answer 1

Answer: $15,450

Step-by-step explanation:

The inventory cost of the car is every cost that was incurred to get it to the car dealer and ready for sale.

Total inventory cost assigned is:

= Cost of car + transportation-in + shipping insurance + car import duties

= 14,000 + 250 + 300 + 900

= $15,450
