    B) 1282

    Explanation:

    Units Per unit price Total

    Balance, 1/1/18 200 $5.00 $1,000

    Purchase, 1/15/18 100 $5.30 $530

    Purchase, 1/28/18 100 $5.50 $550

    total 400 $2,080

    Balance, 1/31/18 140 $762

    the first in, first out inventory method assigns cost of goods sold to the oldest merchandise available, so the 1/31/18 inventory's balance = (100 x $5.50) + (40 x $5.30) = $550 + $212 = $762

    So COGS = $2,080 - $762 = $1,318

    gross profit = revenue - COGS = [ (400 - 140) x $10] - $1,318 = $2,600 - $1,318 = $1,282
