    The answer is: $25000

    Explanation:

    The cost of goods sold is determined by deducting the closing inventory balance from the opening inventory balance and the inventory purchased during the current period. Audio Corporation had $15,000 as the opening balance of its DVDs inventory account, $20,000 of inventory was purchased during the year and at year end, the DVD inventory was less $25,000 worth of DVDs.

    The cost of goods sold is therefore calculated as follows:

    Opening balance: $15,000

    Purchases: $20,000

    Finished goods: ($25,000)

    Closing balance: $10,000

    $25,000 would be reported as cost of goods sold, assuming DVDs are the only goods that Audio Corporation sells.
