Levi Oneill · Answer 1

Cost of Goods Sold FIFO basis = $38480

Explanation:

FIFO basis assumes that the units that are bought first will be the ones that are sold first. So, the cost of goods sold will include the cost of units that are bought first at the cost they were bought for.

Cost of Goods Sold FIFO basis

Sales in units = 200 units + 140 units = 340 units

So, the cost of goods sold will include,

50 units at $120 = 6000 290 units at $112 = 32480 Total Cost of Goods Sold = 6000 + 32480 = $38480
