    Ending inventory = $1514

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Beginning inventory: 320u*$5.00 = $1600

    Purchase, (1/15/2017) = 160u*5.70 = $912

    Purchase, (1/28/2017) = 160u*5.90 = $944

    Ending inventory = 260u

    The company uses FIFO (first in, first out).

    What is the value of ending inventory?

    Ending inventory = 160u*5.90 + 100u*5.70 = $1514
