Calculate weighted average cost per unit. (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 2.25.) Weighted average cost per unit $?
Weighted Avg cost pu = Total cost of goods available for sale/Total goods available for sale
Total cost of goods available for sale = (4200 * 7) + (5250 * 8) + (6300 * 10) + (7350 * 9) + (8400 * 11)
= 292950
Total goods available for sale = 4200 + 5250 + 6300 + 7350 + 8400 = 31500
Weighted cost pu= 292950/31500 = 9.3
