Aug. 1 Inventory On Hand—2,000 Units; Cost $5.70 Each.

Second sales assumed to be 7,000 units at a price of $11.40 each.

Altira Corporation

August 2021 Ending Inventory & Cost of Goods Sold:

1. Ending Inventory = 9,000 units at $5.88 per unit = $52,920

2. Cost of goods sold =

9,600 x $5.87 = $56,352

7,000 x $5.95 = $41,650

16,600 units = $98,002

Explanation:

a) Calculations:

Units Unit Cost Total Cost

Beginning Inventory 2,000 $5.70 $11,400

Purchases 12,000 $5.90 $70,800

Weighted average cost = ($11,400 + $70,800) / 14,000 = $5.87

Sales (9,600) $12.00 $115,200

Units remaining 4,400 $5.87 $25,828

Purchases 7,200 $6.00 $43,200

Weighted average cost = ($25,828 + $43,200) / 11,600 = $5.95

Sales (7,000) $11.40 $79,800

Units remaining 4,600 $5.95 $27,370

Purchases 4,400 $5.80 $25,520

Weighted average cost = ($27,370 + $25,520) / 9,000 = $5.88

Ending Inventory 9,000 $5.88 $52,920

b) The 'Average Cost Method' or the Weighted Average Cost Method assumes that the cost of inventory is based on the average cost of the goods available for sale during the period. To compute the average cost, divide the total cost of goods available for sale by the total units available for sale.
