Explanation / Answer

Schedule :

a) Ending inventory FIFO = (200*6.4+400*6.30) = 3800

b) Cost of goods sold under FIFO = (12440-3800) = 8640

c) Ending inventory LIFO = (500*6+100*6.20) = 3620

d) Cost of goods sold under LIFO = 12440-3620 = 8820

e) Ending inventory under weighted average = (12440/2000*600) = 3732

f) Cost of goods sold under weighted average = 12440-3732 = 8708
