    Calculation of the ending inventory with the first-in-first-out (FIFO) method:

    Number of units in the ending inventory = Units in the beginning inventory + Units Purchased - Units sold

    Number of units in the ending inventory = 1200 + (500+2000) - 2150 = 1550 units

    Under the FIFO method the ending inventory belongs to the latest purchases. Hence, 1550 units shall belong to the latest purchase @ $13.50 per unit.

    Hence, Cost of ending inventory using FIFO method = 1550 units @$13.50 = $20,925
