Purchases Sales Units Unit Cost Units Selling Price/Unit 3/1 Beginning inventory 100 $40 3/3 Purchase 60 $50 3/4 Sales 70 $80 3/10 Purchase 200 $55 3/16 Sales 80 $90 3/19 Purchase 40 $60 3/25 Sales 120 $90 Using the inventory and sales data above, calculate the value assigned to cost of goods sold in March and to the ending inventory at March 31 using FIFO and LIFO.

Respuesta :

The value assigned to the cost of goods sold in March using the:

LIFO method is $14,900

FIFO method is:  $13,050

The value assigned to ending inventory in March using the:

LIFO method is $5,500

FIFO method is: $7,350

The ending inventory is inventory that was not sold at the end of a period.

Ending inventory = total inventory - inventory sold

Total inventory = 100 + 60 + 200 + 40 = 400

Inventory sold = 70 + 80 + 120 = 270

Ending inventory = 400 - 270 = 130

The FIFO inventory means that the first inventory a company buys are the first to be sold and the ending inventory consists of goods that were the last to be purchased.

The goods sold would consist of beginning inventory and goods bought on the 3rd and 10th.

Cost of goods bought = (100 x $40) + (60 x $50) + (110 x $55) = $13,050

Ending inventory would consist of the inventories purchase on the 10th and 25th

Ending inventory = (90 x $55) + (40 x $60) = $7,350

The LIFO method means that the last inventory purchased by a firm is the the first to be sold and ending inventory is made up of inventory purchase first.

The cost of goods sold would consist of inventory bought on 3rd. 10th and 19th

Cost of goods sold = (40 x $60) + (200 x $55) + (30 x $50) = $14,900

The ending inventory would consist of the inventories purchased first.

Ending inventory = (100 x $40) + (30 x $50) = $5500
