Solution

Under the Last-In, First-Out (LIFO) periodic inventory method, the last items purchased are the first ones to be sold. In this case, the last diamonds purchased by Delta Diamonds were the 2 diamonds bought on September 23 for $600 each.

Since Delta Diamonds sold 1 diamond on December 24, the Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) would be the cost of the last diamond purchased, which is $600.

So, the answer is $600.
