Answer: $14371.6

Explanation:

Given that,

According to FIFO method,

Marvin sold = 1,900 units of inventory during the month

Cost of Beginning inventory = 990 * $7.25

= $7177.5

on Mar. 10

Cost of Purchase = 570 * $7.73

= $4,406.1

Remaining purchases = Total units sold - Beginning inventory - number of units purchase on mar 10

= 1,900 - 990 - 570

= 340 units

Cost of remaining purchases = 340 units * $8.2

= $2,788

Total cost of goods sold = Cost of Beginning inventory + Cost of Purchase + Cost of remaining purchases

= $7177.5 + $4,406.1 + $2,788

= $14371.6
