Answer:

a. The number of units purchased in October = 400

The cost per unit = $12

b-1. Cost of goods sold = $7,950

Ending inventory = $6,450

b-2. Cost of goods sold = $8,650

Ending inventory = $5,750

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Beginning inventory 300 units at $10 per unit = $3,000

May purchases 600 units at $11 per unit = 6,600

October purchases 400 units at $12 per unit = 4,800

Goods available 1,300 units $14,400

Ending inventory 550 units

Goods sold 750 units

a. The number of units purchased in October = 400 (1,300 - 300 - 600)

The cost per unit = $12 ($4,800/400)

b-1. Cost of goods sold and ending inventory using FIFO method:

Cost of goods sold:

300 units at $10 per unit = $3,000

450 units at $11 per unit = 4,950 $7,950

Ending inventory = $6,450 ($14,400 - $7,950)

b-2. Cost of goods sold and ending inventory using LIFO method:

Cost of goods sold:

350 units at $11 per unit = 3,850

400 units at $12 per unit = 4,800

Total Cost of goods sold = $8,650

Ending inventory = $5,750 ($14,400 - $8,650)
