Answer 1

Solution:

Answer 1 :  

Given data,

Date	Particulars	Units	Unit cost
Jan 1	Inventory	5000	$9.20
June 18	Purchases	4,500	$8.00
Nov 08	Purchases	3,000	$7.00

The periodic inventory method.
Under the FIFO method

A physical inventory on December 31 shows 2,000 units on hand

Hence the value of the inventory = 2000 * 7

= $14,000

Note : The closing stock was from last purchased stock is $7 per unit because the company follows FIFO method.

The December 31 inventory is valued at $14,000

Answer 2 :

From the given data we need to find the cost of goods sold under FIFO method:

Cost of goods sold under FIFO methid:

= (20 units * $19) + (50 units * $20)

= $380 + $1,000

= $1,380 .

The correct answer for the question is option A - $1,380

Answer 3 :

From the given data we need to find the cost per unit for may :

100 at $7 = $700

400 at $7 = $2800

300 at $8 = $2400

Total units = 100 + 400 + 300

Total units  = 800

Total cost = 700 + 2800 + 2400

Total cost  = $5900

Now cost per unit :

Cost per unit: (Total cost / Total units)

= $5900 / 800

= $7.375

The cost per unit = $7.375

So, The correct option is C - $7.375
