Answer:

1) Cost of goods sold is calculated as follows:

  RM
Opening Inventory (A) 1,300
Purchases (B)            6,400
Carried Inventory (C)              200
Closing Inventory (D)        (900)
Cost of goods sold (A + B + C - D)    RM 7,000

So correct answer is option (a) or RM 7,000

2) The remaining book value, after 2 years by using the reducing balance method is calculated as follows:

Year   RM
1 Cost          3,200
  Less: Depreciation 25% (3,200 *25% )           (800)
  Book Value          2,400
     2 Less: Depreciation 25% (2,400 *25% )           (600)
  Book Value        RM 1,800

So correct answer is option (c) or RM 1,800
