1 Calculation of Ending Inventory at Retail=

Cost to retail ratio=494500/770000=49.00%

Beginning inventory 132000 (At cost)
Purchases + 362500 (At cost)
Goods available for sale = 494500
Sales - 306250 (Sales of 625000 x 49%)
Ending inventory $188250

2. Ending Inventory Cost at Retail=188250

Cost to retail ratio=494500/770000=49.00%

3. Cost of Ending Inventory Using FIFO Cost Method=

Opening Inventory Used=132000

Reemining will be used from Purchases=(306250-132000)=174250

Clsoing Inventory=494500-174250-132000=188250

4. Cost of Ending Inventory Using LIFO Retail Method=

Total retail Inventory Used=770000*49%=377300
