Explanation / Answer

Answer a.

Number of units in Beginning Inventory = 100
Cost of Beginning Inventory = 100 * $5.00 = $500

Number of units purchased = 400 + 300 + 200 + 600 + 200
Number of units purchased = 1,700

Cost of Goods purchased = 400 * $5.10 + 300 * $5.30 + 200 * $5.35 + 600 * $5.60 + 200 * $5.80
Cost of Goods purchased = 9,220

Number of units available for sale = Number of units in Beginning Inventory + Number of units purchased
Number of units available for sale = 100 + 1,700 = 1,800

Cost of Goods available for sale = Cost of Beginning Inventory + Cost of Goods purchased
Cost of Goods available for sale = $500 + $9,220
Cost of Goods available for sale = $9,720

Number of units sold = 300 + 200 + 800 + 150
Number of units sold = 1,450

Number of units in Ending Inventory = Number of units available for sale - Number of units sold
Number of units in Ending Inventory = 1,800 - 1,450
Number of units in Ending Inventory = 350

FIFO:

Cost of Goods sold = 100 * $5.00 + 400 * $5.10 + 300 * $5.30 + 200 * $5.35 + 450 * $5.60
Cost of Goods sold = $7,720

Ending Inventory = 150 * $5.60 + 200 * $5.80
Ending Inventory = $2,000

LIFO:

Cost of Goods sold = 200 * $5.80 + 600 * $5.60 + 200 * $5.35 + 300 * $5.30 + 150 * $5.10
Cost of Goods sold = $7,945

Ending Inventory = 250 * $5.10 + 100 * $5.00
Ending Inventory = $1,775

Average Costing:

Unit Cost = Cost of Goods available for sale / Number of units available for sale
Unit Cost = $9,720 / 1,800
Unit Cost = $5.40

Cost of Goods sold = 1,450 * $5.40
Cost of Goods sold = $7,830

Ending Inventory = 350 * $5.40
Ending Inventory = $1,890

Answer b.

FIFO:

October 5:

Number of units sold = 300

Cost of Goods Sold = 100 * $5.00 + 200 * $5.10
Cost of Goods Sold = $1,520

Ending Inventory = 200 * $5.10
Ending Inventory = $1,020

October 12:

Number of units sold = 200

Cost of Goods Sold = 200 * $5.10
Cost of Goods Sold = $1,520

Ending Inventory = 300 * $5.30
Ending Inventory = $1,590

October 27:

Number of units sold = 800

Cost of Goods Sold = 300 * $5.30 + 200 * $5.35 + 300 * $5.60
Cost of Goods Sold = $4,340

Ending Inventory = 300 * $5.60
Ending Inventory = $1,680

October 28:

Number of units sold = 150

Cost of Goods Sold = 150 * $5.60
Cost of Goods Sold = $840

Ending Inventory = 150 * $5.60 + 200 * $5.80
Ending Inventory = $2,000

LIFO:

October 5:

Number of units sold = 300

Cost of Goods Sold = 300 * $5.10
Cost of Goods Sold = $1,530

Ending Inventory = 100 * $5.00 + 100 * $5.10
Ending Inventory = $1,010

October 12:

Number of units sold = 200

Cost of Goods Sold = 200 * $5.30
Cost of Goods Sold = $1,060

Ending Inventory = 100 * $5.00 + 100 * $5.10 + 100 * $5.30
Ending Inventory = $1,540

October 27:

Number of units sold = 800

Cost of Goods Sold = 600 * $5.60 + 200 * $5.35
Cost of Goods Sold = $4,430

Ending Inventory = 100 * $5.00 + 100 * $5.10 + 100 * $5.30
Ending Inventory = $1,540

October 28:

Number of units sold = 150

Cost of Goods Sold = 150 * $5.80
Cost of Goods Sold = $870

Ending Inventory = 100 * $5.00 + 100 * $5.10 + 100 * $5.30 + 50 * $5.80
Ending Inventory = $1,830
