During the year, Wright Company sells 500 remote-control airplanes for $120 each. The company has the following inventory purchase transactions for the year. Date Transaction Number of Units Unit Cost Total Cost Jan. 1 Beginning inventory 40 $ 68 $ 2,720 May. 5 Purchase 270 71 19,170 Nov. 3 Purchase 220 76 16,720 530 $ 38,610 Calculate ending inventory and cost of goods sold for the year, assuming the company uses weighted-average cost.

Ending inventory = $2,185.47

Cost of goods sold = $36,424.53

Explanation:

500 units sold at $120

Date         Transaction                  Units         Unit Cost          Total Cost

Jan. 1        Beg. inventory               40               $68                 $2,720

May. 5      Purchase                      270               $71                  $19,170

Nov. 3      Purchase                      220               $76                 $16,720

Total                                              530               $72.849         $38,610

Ending inventory = (530 - 500) x $72.849 = $2,185.47

Cost of goods sold = 500 x $72.849 = $36,424.53

When you use the weighted average method, you add the total amount of purchases + beg. inventory, and then divide by the total amount of units.

comment it always confuses me

typically a loft will include modern kitchen and bathrooms, this increases the price tag. lofts also have a good amount of open space, this requires more heating and electricity. lofts are also in older buildings, this means that maintaining the location increases the bill. keep in mind this is without talking about the high state and property taxes.

i hope this you! : )
