Answer:
$19.21
Explanation:
The computation of the unit cost per item is as follows:
Beginning merchandise inventory $52,000
Add: Purchases + freight in $293,000 ($280,000 + $13,000)
Less: Ending merchandise inventory -$54,900
Cost of goods sold $290,100
Now the cost of goods sold per unit is
= $277,100 ÷ 15,100 units
= $19.21
