Oriole has the following inventory data: July 1 Beginning inventory 34 units at $6.70 5 Purchases 134 units at $7.40 14 Sale 90 units 21 Purchases 67 units at $8.10 30 Sale 63 units Assuming that a perpetual inventory system is used, what is the value of ending inventory on a LIFO basis for July

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is "$585.80".

Explanation:

According to the question,

Sold 63 units on July 30 from purchase of July 21, the remaining will be:

= [tex](67-63)\times 8.1[/tex]

= [tex]4\times 8.1[/tex]

= [tex]32.4[/tex]

Sold 90 units on July 14 from purchase of 5, the remaining will be:

= [tex](134-90)\times 7.4[/tex]

= [tex]44\times 7.4[/tex]

= [tex]325.6[/tex]

On July 1, opening stock will be:

= [tex]34\times 6.7[/tex]

= [tex]227.8[/tex]

hence,

The total value of inventory as per LIFO method will be:

= [tex]32.4+325.6+227.8[/tex]

= [tex]585.80[/tex] ($)
