Acme Brands invested $5 million in 2010 on new equipment, spent $750 thousand to increase its inventory of intermediate components, and added $25 thousand to its inventory of finished goods
At year's end, the components inventory is found to be $200 thousand above its beginning-of-the- year level, and finished goods inventory is up $30 thousand over its starting level. Calculate planned investment, unplanned investment, and actual (total) investment.
Planned investment is $5 million plus $750 thousand plus $25 thousand equals $5.775 million. Unplanned investment is $200 thousand minus $750 thousand plus $30 thousand minus $25 thousand equals negative $545 thousand. Actual investment is $5 million plus $200 thousand plus $30 thousand equals $5.23 million (equals $5.775 million minus $545 thousand).
