a. Calculate the cost of ending inventory using
the LIFO (ending inventory shows 52 units).
b. Calculate the cost of goods sold using the LIFO
(ending inventory shows 52 units).
Goods sold=Total units available-Ending inventory
=169-52
=117 units
As per LIFO;goods purchased last are sold off first.
Hence 117 units sold would consist of 46 units of November 1;41 units of June 1 and balance=(117-46-41)=30 units of April 1
Hence cost of goods sold=(46 units@$9)+(41 units@$8)+(30 units@$7)
=$952
Hence ending inventory would consist of =(51-30)=21 units of April 1 and 31 units of January 1 inventory
Hence ending inventory=(21 units@$7)+(31 units@$4)
=$271
