    Average cost units in inventory=$1,205

    Explanation:

    August 8

    Weighted average cost in August 8

    = ((2 * 100) + (3 * 250)) / 5=$190

    Cost of goods sold in August 15 = 190 * 3 = 570

    Balance in inventory in August 15 = 950 - 570 = 380

    Weighted average cost in August 25 = 380 + (3 * 275) / (2+3) = 241 per

    Average cost of units = $241 per unit

    Average cost units in inventory in August 25 = $241*5 = 1205

    Average cost units in inventory=$1,205
