Computation of April 30 inventory and the April cost of goods sold using the FIFO method:

For April, when the companies sold 550 units. In FIFO Method first purchase units will be sold first.

So,

Cost of Goods Sold = 260 units*$15 + (550-260)*$18

= 260 units*$15 + 290 units*$18

= $3,900 + $5,220

Cost of Goods Sold = $9,120

 

Ending Inventory = Opening inventory + Purchases - Sales

= 260 + (430 + 310) - 550

= 260 +740 - 550

= 450 units

 

Value of Ending Inventory = (140 units * $18) + (310units * $20)

= $2520 + $6200

Value of Ending Inventory = $8720
