    The amount of finished goods inventory on the balance sheet at year-end would be $10,000

    Explanation:

    Cost making different part of the cost of inventory are the cost use to make all those production costs that are necessary for the purchase of materials to make them into finished goods which we have in these case as;

    Cost production = All direct costs use for production

    These cost includes

    All Cost of production = $7000 + $9,500 + $8500 = $25000

    And the production cost is for 5000 units meaning production cost was which we have as

    =$25000 / 5000

    =5$

    Therefore closing inventory value which would be = 2000*5

    = $10000

    The amount of finished goods inventory on the balance sheet at year-end would be $10,000

    Closing Inventory would be standing at $10000

    Explanation:

    The cost that forms part of the cost of inventory are all those production costs that are necessary to convert it into finished goods which in this case is:

    Production cost = All direct costs are production costs

    And

    All Direct Cost = $7000 Direct Mat + $9500 Production Workers Wages + $8500 Direct Utilities bills = $25000

    And the production cost incurred was for 5000 units which means the unit production cost was $5 ($25000 / 5000 units).

    So closing inventory value would be = 2000 closing inventory units * $5

    = $10000
