Periodic Inventory Using FIFO, LIFO, and Weighted Average Cost Methods
The units of an item available for sale during the year were as follows:
| Jan. 1 | Inventory | 6 | units at $27 | $162 | 
| Aug. 13 | Purchase | 15 | units at $28 | 420 | 
| Nov. 30 | Purchase | 7 | units at $29 | 203 | 
| Available for sale | 28 | units | $785 | |
There are 14 units of the item in the physical inventory at December 31. The periodic inventory system is used. Determine the inventory cost using the (a) first-in, first-out (FIFO) method; (b) last-in, first-out (LIFO) method; and (c) weighted average cost method (round per-unit cost to two decimal places and your final answer to the nearest whole dollar).
| a. | First-in, first-out (FIFO) | $ | 
| b. | Last-in, first-out (LIFO) | $ | 
| c. | Weighted average cost |
