Swifty Corporation’s April 30 inventory was destroyed by fire. January 1 inventory was $159,400, and purchases for January through April totaled $504,000. Sales revenue for the same period was $671,100. Swifty’s normal gross profit percentage is 35% on sales. Using the gross profit method, estimate Swifty’s April 30 inventory that was destroyed by fire.

$226,000

Explanation:

Ending Inventory As of April 30, is the ending inventory from January to April.

Opening inventory = $159,409

Purchases = $504,000

gross profit =35% of  $671,100

=0.35 x 671,000

=234,000

cost of goods sold = revenue - gross profit

=$671,100 - $234,000

=$437, 000

cost of goods sold = opening inventory + purchases- ending inventory

=$437, 000=  $159,409 +  $504,000- ending inventory

=$437,000= $663,409- ending inventory.

Ending inventory =  $663,409 - $437,000

=$226,000

start by isolating the variable on one side by adding 43w^2 to both sides.   the equation will read:

25w^2+5=0

*subtract 5 from both sides*

25w^2=-5

*divide both sides by 25*

w^2=-1/5

*take the square root of both sides*

w=√(-1/5)

the square root of -1 is i.   the square root of 5 remains √5

the answer is i/√5.
