Required:

1. Using FIFO, calculate ending inventory, cost of goods sold, sales revenue, and gross profit.

1. Ending inventory = $3519

2. Cost of Goods Sold = $21030

3. Sales Revenue = $27279

4. Gross Profit = $6249

Explanation:

FIFO method of inventory valuation is whereby the stock that first comes into the business, leaves first. This is common in perishable inventory such as vegetables or fruits.

Jan 1. Beginning inventory: 53 units x $45 = $2385

Total

53 units x $45 = $2385

Apr 7. Purchase 133 units x $47 = $6251

Total

53 units x $45 = $2385

133 units x $47 = $6251

Jul 16. Purchase 203 units x $50 = $10150

Total

53 units x $45 = $2385

133 units x $47 = $6251

203 units x $50 = $10150

Oct 6. Purchase 113 units x $51 = $5763

53 units x $45 = $2385

133 units x $47 = $6251

203 units x $50 = $10150

113 units x $51 = $5763

1. Ending inventory = 502 - 433 = 69 hence,

69 units x $51 = $3519

2. Cost of Goods Sold =

[$2385 + $6251 + $10150 + (44 units x $51)] = $21030

OR $24549 - 3519 = $21030

3. Sales Revenue =

433 units x $63 = $27279

4. Gross Profit = Sales Revenue - Cost of Goods Sold hence,

$27279 - 21030 = $6249
