Question

A company purchased 120 units for $ 20 each on January 31. It purchased 170 units for $ 30 each on February 28. It sold 170 units for $ 60 each from March 1 through December 31. If the company uses the firstminus​in, firstminusout inventory costing​ method, what is the amount of Cost of Goods Sold on the income statement for the year ending December​ 31? (Assume that the company uses a perpetual inventory​ system.)

Answer 1

Answer:

$2,730

Explanation:

The computation of the Cost of Goods Sold is shown below:-

Cost of goods sold =  Purchase × Each Unit + (Sold units - Each unit) × Purchase units

= 120 units × $20 + 110 units × $30

= $2,400 + $330

= $2,730

Therefore we have calculated the cost of goods sold from First in the first-out method by applying the above formula.
