Problem 6-1A

D) Schilling also had $400 of inventory at a Balena craft shop on consignment from Schilling.
E) ON February 26, Schilling ordered goods costing $750. The goods were shipped FOB shipping point on February 27. Schilling received the goods on March 1.

G) Schilling had damaged goods set aside in the warehouse because they are no longer saleable. These goods originally cost $400 and, originally, Schilling expected to sell these items for $600.
