Most time, it is reasonable to refer to the opportunity cost as the price because it entails the benefit of the foregone good or service.

<h3>What is an opportunity cost?</h3>

It refers to a value of what is rejected in order to perform the chosen alternative, that is, the value one have to give up to buy what you want in terms of other goods or services.

Therefore, it is sometimes reasonable to refer to the opportunity cost as the price because it entails the benefit of the foregone good or service.

Skysong, Inc. reports the following for the month of June. Units Unit Cost Total Cost June 1 Inventory 250 $5 $ 1,250 12 Purchas
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

Weighted average unit cost =  $8.78

Explanation:

<em>The weighted average method of inventory determines the average cost per unit of inventory each time a new batch is received. or every new batch received the average cost per unit is re-computed by dividing the total value of stock by the outstanding number of units.</em>

The explanation is completed using calculation below:

Total value of stock = (250× $5)   +  (500×$9) + (375 × 11)  = $9,875

Total units of stock = 250 + 500 + 375 = 1,125  units

Weighted average unit cost = Total value of stock / total units of stock

                                        =  $9875 / 1125 units = $8.78

Weighted average unit cost =  $8.78
