    Explanation:

    First, We calculate the beginning inventory:

    5,496 x 1/3 = 1,832 bottles x $1 February = $ 1,832

    5,495 x 1/3 = 1,832 bottles x $1.25 March = $ 2,748

    5,495 x 1/3 = 1,832 bottles x $1.75 April = $ 3,206

    Second, We start subtract the first units from the sales until get zero

    sales 4,925

    -1,832 february bottles 1,832

    3,093

    -1,832 march bottles 2,748

    1,261

    -1,261 April bottles x 1.75 = 2,206.75

    0

    Third, we add them to get the COGS

    COGS 6,786.75
