Answer:

An advantage of using the retail method of inventory costing is

c.that it may be used as an aid in taking a physical inventory.

Explanation:

This method is based on the relationship between the cost of merchandise and its retail price. The method is not entirely accurate, and so should be periodically supplemented by a physical inventory count. Its results are not adequate for the year-end financial statements, for which a high level of inventory record accuracy is needed.

Dividing both side by 9,
