Solution

To determine the costs assigned to ending inventory using the LIFO (Last-In, First-Out) method, we need to follow these steps:

  1. Identify the number of units sold and the number of units in ending inventory. According to the information given, Trey Monson sold 15 units. The total units purchased were 10 units on December 7, 20 units on December 14, and 15 units on December 21, which totals 45 units. So, the ending inventory is 45 units - 15 units = 30 units.

  2. Under the LIFO method, the last units purchased are the first ones to be sold. So, the 15 units sold would have come from the December 21 purchase (15 units @ 19.00cost)andtheDecember14purchase(20units@19.00 cost) and the December 14 purchase (20 units @ 17.00 cost).

  3. Calculate the cost of goods sold (COGS). The 15 units sold would be costed at the latest purchase price, which is 19.00forthefirst15units.So,COGS=15units19.00 for the first 15 units. So, COGS = 15 units * 19.00/unit = $285.

  4. Calculate the cost of the ending inventory. The remaining 30 units would be costed at the earlier purchase prices. The first 5 units would be costed at 17.00(fromtheDecember14purchase),andtheremaining25unitswouldbecostedat17.00 (from the December 14 purchase), and the remaining 25 units would be costed at 11.00 (from the December 7 purchase). So, the cost of ending inventory = (5 units * 17.00/unit)+(25units17.00/unit) + (25 units * 11.00/unit) = 85+85 + 275 = $360.

So, under the LIFO method, the costs assigned to ending inventory would be $360.
