What is the value for closing inventory to be included in the financial statements of KL?

CORRECT TEXT

KL has just completed their inventory count and has ascertained that the cost value of the

inventory is $460,000; this was made up of 10,000 units of component part FF.

A week before the year end the FF components were moved to a temporary warehouse.

Two weeks later they were inspected and found to have been damaged by the damp conditions in the temporary warehouse.

Of the 10,000 units 2,500 of them were damaged. After remedial work of $5.00 per unit KL anticipates they will be able to sell the damaged parts for $32.00 per unit.
