Explanation / Answer

1.) Moving-average cost per unit at January:

   January 1 100 *$20 = $2000 $2000/100 = $20 per unit

   January 5    100 *$20 = $2000

150 *$23 =$3450   

   250 $5450 $5450 / 250 = $21.8 per unit

   Janaury 8 (110) * $21.8 = ($2398)

   10 10 * $21.8 = $218

Net sale (100) ($2180) ($5450 - $2180) / (250-100) =$3270/150units =$21.8per unit

Januray 15 55 * $25 = $1375 ($3270 + $1375) / (150 +55) = $22.66 per unit

   January 16 (5 units) * $25 = ($125)    ($3270 + $1375 -$125) / (150 +55-5)= $22.6 per unit

January 20 (100 unit ) * $22.6 = ($2260) ($3270 + $1375 -$125-2260) / (150 +55-5-100)=$22.6 per unit

   January 25 40 units * $27 =$1080    ($3270 + $1375 -$125-2260+1080) /(150 +55-5-100+40)=$23.86 per unit

Note:- Units sold are considered to be cost of goods sold , and need to be deducted from total cost till dates ; cost of goods sold = units sold * average moving cost per unit till dates
