Clare Mahoney · Answer 1

D) $115,000

Explanation:

beginning 5,000 at cost of $ 35,000

purchase 12,000 at $9 each = $ 108,000

total units available for sale 17,000

ending (4,000)

sold units: 13,000

Under LIFO we first sale the newest units those are the purchased ones.

we will sale the 12,000 purchased unit - -> $108,000

13,000 - 12,000 = 1,000 there is still 1000 more unit to sale oso we take themfrom beginning inventory

and 1000 of the beginning inventory:

35,000 / 5,000 x 1,000 = 7,000

total cogs = 108,000 + 7,000 = 115,000
