Explanation / Answer

Calculation of inventory under FIFO method:

Date

Purchases

Sales

Balance

Dec. 1

Beginning Balance

33U X $299 = $6897

Dec. 6

24U X $304 =7296

33U X $299 = $6897

24U X $304 =$7296

Dec.13

33U X $299 =$9867

5U X $304 =$1520

19U X $304 =$5776

Dec.19

44U X $309 =$13596

19U X $304 =$5776

44U X $309 =$13596

Dec.22

19U X $304 =$5776

29U X $309 =$8961

15U X $309 =$4635

Dec. 25

34U X $314 =$10676

15U X $309 =$4635

34U X $314 =$10676

Cost of goods sold (COGS) and ending inventory:

With the help of the above inventory card, we can easily compute the cost of goods sold and ending inventory.

* The total of sales column of perpetual inventory card.
** The balance at 31st December – at the end of balance column.

Calculation of inventory under Average cost method:

Date

Purchases

Sales

Balance

Dec. 1

Beginning Balance

33U X $299 = $6897

Dec. 6

24U X $304 =7296

33U X $299 = $6897

24U X $304 =$7296

57U X $249 =$14193

Dec.13

38U X $249 =$9462

19U X $249 =$4731

Dec.19

44U X $309 =$13596

19U X $249 =$4731

44U X $309 =$13596

63U X $290.905 =$18327

Dec.22

48U X $290.91 =$13963.68

15U X $290.91 =$4363.32

Dec. 25

34U X $314 =$10676

15U X $290.905 =$4363.32

34U X $314 =$10676

49U X $306.92 =$15039.32

Note:

Calculation of Average price:

total units = 33+24 = 57

Total amount = 6897+7296 =$14193

Average price = 14193 /57 = $249

total units = 19+44 = 63

Total amount =4731+13596 =$18327

Average price = 18327 /63 = $290.91

total units = 34+15 = 49

Total amount =10676+4363.32 =$15039.32

Average price = 15039.32 /49= $306.92

Cost of goods sold: $9462 + $13963.68 = $23425.68 (Total of sales column)

Cost of ending inventory: $15039.56 (Balance column)
