A Clarke Corporation subsidiary buys marketable equity securities and inventory on April 1, 2020, for 100,000 won each. It pays for both items on June 1, 2020, and they are still on hand at year-end. Inventory is carried at cost under the lower-of-cost-or-net realizable rule. Currency exchange rates in 2020 follow:

January 1 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .  $0.15 = 1 won
