    Dr. Cost of goods Sold $850,300

    Cr. Finished goods Inventory $850,300

    Explanation:

    Goods available to sale is the sum to Beginning Inventory and the production / Purchases for the period.

    Finished goods Available for sale = Beginning Inventory of Finished goods + Production in the period

    Finished goods Available for sale = $171,500 + $848,000 = $1,019,500

    Cost of Goods sold is the cost of the unit sold which is incurred to produce / purchase that products. It is calculated by deducting the ending inventory from goods available to sale.

    Cost of finished goods sold = Finished goods Available for sale - Ending Inventory of finished goods = $1,019,500 - $169,200 = $850,300
