Question
EliteCraft Manufacturing has the following inventory purchases and sales during the month of March:March 1: Beginning inventory of 150 units at 13 eachMarch 12: Sale of 300 unitsMarch 18: Purchase of 200 units at 1,500; Total COGS: 2,100; Total COGS: 1,000; Total COGS: 1,100; Total COGS: $5,900
Solution
To calculate the ending inventory and cost of goods sold (COGS) using the LIFO (Last-In, First-Out) method, we start by tracking the inventory purchases and sales.
- March 1: Beginning inventory of 150 units at 1,650
- March 8: Purchase of 250 units at 3,250
- March 12: Sale of 300 units. According to LIFO, we sell the items we bought last first. So, we sell 250 units bought on March 8 and 50 units from the beginning inventory. This equals to (250*11) = 550 = $3,800 (COGS)
- March 18: Purchase of 200 units at 2,800
- March 25: Sale of 150 units. Again, according to LIFO, we sell the items we bought last first. So, we sell 150 units bought on March 18. This equals to 150*2,100 (COGS)
Now, let's calculate the ending inventory and total COGS:
Ending inventory = Beginning inventory + Purchases - COGS Ending inventory = 3,250 + 3,800 - 1,800
Total COGS = COGS on March 12 + COGS on March 25 = 2,100 = $5,900
So, the answer is: Ending inventory: 5,900. However, this option is not listed in the choices provided. Please check the calculations or the options provided.
