Respuesta :

Answer:

The amount of inventory at the end of the year is $1,684 taking into account the 25 units of the commodity

Explanation:

In this case, the average cost method is used to determine the price per unit at the end of the yera taking into consideration the beginning inventory and the 3 purchases made during the year.

For each new entrance in the stock, it is necessary to calculate the unit price at the average cost method:

  • Beginning inventory: 10 units at $60 : $600
  • First purchase 25 units at $65: $1625, unit price = 600 + 1625 / 10 + 25 = $63.6
  • Second purchase 30 units at $68: $2040, unit price = 600 + 1625 + 2040/ 10 + 25 + 30 = $65.6
  • Third purchase 15 units at $75: $1125, unit price = 600 + 1625 + 2040 + 1125/ 10 + 25 + 30 + 15 = $67.4

At the end of the year, there are 25 units at $67.4 =$1,684
