Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Date Transaction             Number of units   Unit Cost   Cost Value

1/1     Beginning inventory             2,000        $22.00    $44,000

4/12  Purchase No. 1                      2,300        $26.00      59,800

7/11   Purchase No. 2                        800        $28.00      22,400

10/5 Purchase No. 3                      1,250        $30.00      37,500

Total inventory available              6,350                       $163,700

Wolfe sold                                      4,100

Ending Inventory                          2,250

LIFO

Ending Inventory = $50,500 (250 * $26 + 2,000 * $22)

Cost of goods sold:

4/12  Purchase No. 1                      2,050        $26.00      53,300

7/11   Purchase No. 2                        800        $28.00      22,400

10/5 Purchase No. 3                      1,250        $30.00      37,500

Total cost of goods sold =            4,100                        $113,200

FIFO:

Ending Inventory = Cost of goods available for sale - Cost of goods sold

= $65,100 ($163,700 - $98,600)

Cost of goods sold:

1/1     Beginning inventory             2,000        $22.00    $44,000

4/12  Purchase No. 1                      2,100        $26.00        54,600

Total cost of goods sold = $98,600

Weighted average:

Weighted average cost = $25.78 ($163,700/6,350)

Ending inventory = $58,005 (2,250 * $25.78)

Cost of goods sold = $105,698 (4,100 * $25.78)
