Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Date Number of Units Purchased

June 1 100 units $360 ($3.6)

June 10 150 units 585 ($3.9)

June 15 150 units 610 ($4.067)

June 28 100 units 520 ($5.2)

A physical count of merchandise inventory on June 30 reveals that there are 240 units on hand.

First, we need to calculate the number of units sold:

Units sold= total units - units in ending inventory

Units sold= 500 - 240= 260

To calculate the cost of goods sold under the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method, we need to use the cost of the firsts units incorporated into inventory.

COGS= 100*3.6 + 150*3.9 + 10*4.067

COGS= $985.67
