Answer 1

Answer:

Ending inventory cost= $599

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

June 1 150 units $ 390 (2.6)

June 10 200 units 585 (2.93)

June 15 200 units 630 (3.15)

June 28 150 units 495 (3.3)

Ending inventory in units= 200

To calculate the ending inventory, first, we need to calculate the average price:

Average price= (2.6 + 2.93 + 3.15 + 3.3) / 4= $2.995

Now, the ending inventory:

Ending inventory= 2.995*200

Ending inventory= $599
