Answer:
Cost of goods sold $152,000
Closing inventory $97,000
Explanation:
Under the FIFO system , inventories are priced using the price of the oldest batch in the stock, after which the price of the next oldest batch and this is done in turn. It is based on the principle that the first batch that arrives the store should be issued first.
Total units sold = 2,500+4,500= 7,000
Using the FIFO method of the perpetual inventory, the 7,000 units sold by will be priced as follows:
2500 units at a price of $20 = $50,000
Next 1500units at a price of $20 = $30,000
Next 3,000 units at a price of $24= $72,000
Cost of goods sold 152,000
Closing inventory = Total cost of goods available for sale- cost of goods sold
Total cost of goods available for sale =
(4,000× 20) + (6,000× 24) + (1,000× $25) = 249,000
Closing inventory = 249,000 - 152,000=$97,000
Cost of goods sold $152,000
Closing inventory $97,000
