Blizzard Corporation sells a number of products to groups that provide educational workshops and seminars. One of the products involves a combination leather case and note pad. The company purchases the case and pad combination from a supplier and encloses a $3 pen that contains the educational groups' name and logo.
Blizzard began to carry this product at the start of 2011 by acquiring 12,500 cases from Executive Supply for $87,500 along with an identical number of pens from Accent Goods. During 2011, 9,500 of the cases and pens were issued to TBlizzard's assembly operation where the pen is added. Eighty percent of these cases were completed as of December 31, and a review of the December 31 finished-goods inventory found 2,600 completed cases in the warehouse. Conversations with salespeople revealed that 70 finished sets were used in various company marketing activities throughout the year.

A. Determine the cost of the cases and pens that would appear in Blizzard's raw materials, work in process, and finished-goods inventory as of December 31.
B. Determine the cost of the cases and pens that would appear in Blizzard's cost of goods sold for 2011.
