Group of answer choices
$24,750
$26,700
$27,113
$28,350
Answer: The correct answer is $27,113
Total Units = Beginning Inventory + Units of Jan 10 + Units of
Jan 20
Total Units =500 + 500 + 1,000
Total Units = 2,000
Cost of Goods Available for Sale = 500 * $55 + 500 * $60 + 1,000
*$63
Cost of Goods Available for Sale = $27,500 + $30,000 +
$63,000
Cost of Goods Available for Sale = $120,500
Cost per Unit = Cost of Goods Available for Sale / Total
Units
Cost per unit = $120,500 / 2,000
Cost per unit = $60.25
Ending Inventory = Ending Units *Cost per unit
Ending Inventory = 450 * $60.25
Ending Inventory = $27,113
