Problem 2: The RAPTORS Company reviewed its inventories and found the following items:

1.) In the shipping room was a product costing P13,400 when the physical count was taken. Because it
was marked Hold for shipping instructions, it was not included in the count. The customer order was
dated December 15, but the product was shipped and the customer billed on January 4, 2015.
2.) On December 27, 2014, merchandise costing P11,648 was received and recorded. The invoice
accompanying the merchandise was marked on consignment.
3.) The company received merchandise costing P4,625 on January 2, 2015. The invoice, which was
recorded on January 3, 2015, showed shipment was made under FOB shipping point on December 31,
2014. The merchandise was not included in the inventory because it was not on hand when the
physical count was taken.
4.) A product, fabricated to order for a particular customer, was completed and in the shipping room on

title. The companys experience suggests that full payment on instalment sales is reasonably assured.
7.) An item costing P65,000 was sold and delivered to the customer on December 29, 2014. The goods
were included in the inventory because the sale was with a repurchase agreement that required
