                                       FIFO              LIFO

Sales Revenue         $1,060,740    $1,060,740

Cost of goods sold       803,976        825,304

Operating results      $256,764      $235,436

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Quarters   Units         Unit Costs     Total Costs

Beginning 9,940            $2.00            $19,880

1               71,000             $2.98            211,580

2             56,800               3.10            176,080

3             56,800              3.26             185,168

4             85,200              3.46           294,792

Total    279,740                               $887,500

Units sold 255,600

Ending inventory = 24,140 (279,740 - 255,600)

FIFO:

Cost of goods sold

= Cost of goods available for sale - Ending inventory

= $803,975.60 ($887,500 - $83,524.40)

Ending Inventory:

= $83,524.40 (24,140 * $3.46)

LIFO:

Cost of goods sold

= Cost of goods available for sale - Ending inventory

= $825,304 ($887,500 - $62,196)

Ending Inventory:

= (9,940 * $2.00) + (14,200 * $2.98)

= ($19,880 + $42,316)

= $62,196
