The costs least likely to incluthe CFO inventory are:A.storage costs for the chocolate liquor.B.excise taxes paito the government of Brazil for the cacbeans.C.storage costs for chocolate anpurchasefinishegoo awaiting shipment to customers.C is correct. The storage costs for inventory awaiting shipment to customers are not costs of purchase, costs of conversion, or other costs incurrein bringing the inventories to their present location ancontion anare not incluin inventory. The storage costs for the chocolate liquor occur ring the proction process anare thus part of the conversion costs. Excise taxes are part of the purchase cost.做错两遍，第三遍还是错了。题干我没找到chocolate liquor，解析的意思也看得模棱两可。麻烦助教点拨一下思路。
