Answer:

Cost of goods sold = $836

Ending inventory = $315

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Date     Description    Units  Unit Price  Balance

Apr. 1    Inventory         12         $45       $540

Apr. 11  Purchase          13         $47       $1,151 ($540 + 13 * $47)

Apr. 14 Sale                 (18)      $100        $315 ($7 * $45)

Sales revenue = $1,800 ($100 * 18)

Cost of goods sold = $836 ($47 * 13 + $45 * 5)

Ending inventory = $315  ($7 * $45)

b) Under the LIFO (Last in, First out) inventory valuation method, it is assumed that goods that were purchased closest to the selling date were the ones to be sold while those purchased earlier remain in inventory.
