    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Ferris Company began January with 7,000 units of its principal product. The cost of each unit is $8.

    Merchandise transactions for January are as follows:

    Jan. 10: 4,000 units at $ 9 = $ 36,000

    Jan. 18: 7,000 units at $10 = 70,000

    Totals: 11,000 units for 106,000

    Sales:

    Jan. 5: 3,000

    Jan. 12: 1,000

    Jan. 20: 4,000

    Total: 8,000

    10,000 units were on hand at the end of the month.

    A) FIFO (first-in, first-out)

    Inventory = 3,000*9 + 7,000*10 = $97,000

    COGS = 7,000*8 + 1,000*9 = $65,000

    B) LIFO periodic.

    Inventory=7,000*8 + 3,000*9 = $83,000

    COGS = 7,000*10 + 1,000*9 = 79,000

    C) LIFO, perpetual.

    COGS = 3,000*8 + 1,000*9 + 4,000*10 = $73,000

    Inventory = 4,000*8 + 3,000*9 + 3,000*10 = $89,000

    D) Average, periodic.

    Purchase cost = (8+9+10) / 3 = 9

    Inventory = 10000*9 = $90,000

    COGS = 8,000*9 = $72,000

    E) Average.

    COGS = 3,000*8 + 1,000*8.5 + 4,000*9 = $68,500

    Inventory = 72,000
