    B. $83,000

    Explanation:

    Inventory value at adoption = $50,000

    Increase in inventory using base year price = $30,000

    Current year Price increase = 10%

    Increase price = $30,000 + ($30,000 x 10%)

    Increased price inventory = $30,000 + $3,000

    Increased price inventory = $33,000

    Amount of Inventory reported on balance = Inventory value at adoption + Increase price Inventory

    Amount of Inventory to be reported on balance = $50,000 + $33,000

    Amount of Inventory to be reported on balance = $83,000
