Explanation / Answer

Goods available for sales = (Beginning inventory + Purchase) = 40 +50+30 + 80 = 200 units

Goods Sold =  Goods available for sales - Closing inventory = 200 - 40 = 160 units

Ending Inventory value & COGS under FIFO

COGS = (40 units * $128) + (50 units * $136) + (30 units * $142) + (40 units * $148) = $22,100

Ending Inventory = (40 units * $148) = $5,920

Ending Inventory value & COGS under LIFO

COGS = (80 units * $148) + (30 units * $142) + (50 units * $136) = $22,900

Ending Inventory = (40 units * $128) = $5,120

Ending Inventory value & COGS under Weighted Average cost

Weighted Average cost per unit = (40 units * $128) + (50 units * $136) + (30 units * $142) + (80 units * $148) / 200

= 28,020 / 200 = $140.10 per unit

COGS = 160 units * $140.10 = $22,416

Ending inventory = 40 units * $140.10 = $5,604

Inventory Method Ending Inventory ($) Cost of Goods Sold ($) FIFO 22,100 5,920 LIFO 22,900 5,120 Weighted - average cost 22,416 5,604
