B £155,000
C £156,250
A £85,000
D £165,000

D £165,000

Explanation:

The computation of gross profit for the year using the first in first out (FIFO) method of inventory  valuation is shown below:-

As we know that

Gross profit = Sales - the cost of goods sold

where

Sales is

= 500 units × £550

= £275,000

And, the cost of goods sold is

= 200 units × £250 + 300 units × £200

= £50,000 + £60,000

= £110,000

We considered only 500 units as these sold units are sold

And, this is a first in first out method so we pick the first date units only

So, the gross profit is

= £275,000 - £110,000

= £165,000

rational decision making is a multi-step process for making choices between alternatives. the process of rational decision making favors logic, objectivity, and analysis over subjectivity and insight. the word “rational” in this context does not mean sane or clear-headed as it does in the colloquial sense.

hope this
