Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Date      Description              Units     Unit Cost    Total Cost

July 1     Beginning Inventory  37             $18             $666

July 7    Purchases                 129            $19             2,451

July 22 Purchases                   18           $20                360

July 30 Total available           184                            $3,477

July 30  Ending inventory       46

July 30  Units sold                 138

Cost of goods sold, using FIFO inventory method:

July 1     Beginning Inventory  37             $18             $666

July 7    Purchases                 101              $19             1,919

Total cost of goods sold =                                       $2,585

Ending inventory = $892 (18 * $20 +  28 * $19)
