Answer:
$113,700
Explanation:
Last in first out (LIFO) is an inventory management method, in which the cost of the most recent product bought are the first to be charged to expenses.
With regards to the above question, we'll have;
Inventory sold = (12,000 × $13.5) + (900 × $13) = $173,700
Ending inventory = [7,200 × $12] + [(3,000 - 900) × $13]
Ending inventory = $86,400 + $27,300
Ending inventory = $113,700
Therefore, the ending inventory using LIFO is $113,700

The taxpayer gives business gifts to her clients at Christmas.
- Business gives are not subject to a 50% deduction, instead they are subject to a $25 limit.

In essence,projects A,B,C,D and E should be accepted as they 12%,11.5%,11.2%,11% and 10.7% returns on investment respectively.
Projects F& G would be rejected on the premise that their rates of return are lower than what is currently obtainable in Midwest Water Works.
