Answer:

The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The LIFO (last-in, first-out) reserve is an account used to bridge the gap between FIFO (first-in, first-out) and LIFO costs.

To calculate the cost of goods sold (COGS) under FIFO, we need to use the following formula:

FIFO COGS= LIFO COGS - (ending LIFO reserve - beginning LIFO reserve)

FIFO COGS= 100,000 - (-30,000)

FIFO COGS= 100,000 + 30,000= $130,000
