A Level Accounting (9706)•9706/12/M/J/22

Explanation
Insufficient information to calculate goods taken for own use
Steps:
- Calculate actual COGS for sales: Revenue ÷ 1.25 = 240,000 ÷ 1.25 = 192,000.
- The 120,000 figure is unlabeled, preventing determination of purchases or recorded COGS.
- Recorded COGS requires opening inventory + purchases - closing inventory, but 120,000's role is ambiguous.
- Without clarified data, goods taken (recorded COGS - actual COGS or similar adjustment) cannot be found.
Why A is correct:
- Not enough information; no calculation yields $500 with given data.
Why the others are wrong:
- B. Not enough information.
- C. Not enough information.
- D. Not enough information.
Final answer: Not enough information.
