If the company uses FIFO, what is the value of the ending inventory? Group of answer choices $868 $848 $800 $832

Ending inventory : $868

Explanation:

FIFO (First-In-First-Out) is a method of inventory valuation where the inventory that is received first is sold first. In other words, the earliest inventory is used first. This is common for perishable inventory such as fruits and vegetables which if not used fast, will be wasted.

01/01/21 : Beginning Inventory : 200 units x $5 = $1000

01/15/21 : Purchases : 100 units x $5.3 = $530

01/28/21 : Purchases : 100 units x $5.5 = $550

Total units = 200 + 100 + 100 = 400 units

Units sold = Total inventory available for sale - ending inventory

= 400 - 160 = 240 units.

COGS:

Beginning Inventory : 200 units x $5 = $1000

Purchases : 40 units x $5.3 = $212

Cost of goods sold : $1000 + $212 = $1212

Ending inventory:

Purchases : (100 - 40) units x $5.3 = $318

Purchases : 100 units x $5.5 = $550

Ending inventory : $318 + $550 = $868
