Solution

To calculate the weighted average cost, we first need to find the total number of units purchased and the total cost of these units.

The total units purchased are: 150 units + 130 units + 90 units + 110 units = 480 units

The total cost is: 1,500+1,500 + 1,170 + 1,260+1,260 + 990 = $4,920

The weighted average cost per unit is then calculated by dividing the total cost by the total number of units: 4,920/480units=4,920 / 480 units = 10.25 per unit

Finally, to find the amount allocated to the ending inventory, we multiply the cost per unit by the number of units left in inventory: 10.25perunit20units=10.25 per unit * 20 units = 205

So, the answer is a. $205.
