Answer:

$41.41

Explanation:

The Weighted Average Cost Method recalculates the unit cost after every new purchase. The goods are then sold at the recent calculated average cost before the sale.

Average Cost Before sale = Total Cost ÷ Units Available for sale

                                           = ( 11 units × $2 + 16 units × $4) ÷ ( 11 units + 16 units)

                                           = $3.185

Therefore,

Cost of Goods Sold = Units Sold × Average Unit Cost Before sale

                                 = 13 units × $3.185

                                 = $41.41

Conclusion :

The amount of the cost of goods sold for this sale is $41.41.
