During March 16,512 units were sold. Dunbar uses a periodic inventory system.
(a) Determine the cost of goods available for sale.
(b) Calculate Average Cost. (Round answer to 3 decimal places, e.g. 5.125.)
Cost of Goods Available for Sale = Value of Opening Stock + Value of Purchases
Value of Opening Stock = 3440 Units * $10 = $34,400
Value of Purchases = (2,752 Units * $11) + (4,816 Units * $12) + (6,880 Units* $14) + (2,752 Units * $15)
Value of Purchases = $30,272 + $57,792 + $96,320 + $41,280 = $225,664
Cost of Goods Available for Sale = $34,400 + $225,664 = $260,064
Average Cost = Cost of Goods Available for Sale/ (Opening Stock Units + Purchases Units)
Average Cost = $260,064/ (3440 Units+ (2,752 Units+4,816 Units+6,880 Units+2,752 Units))
Average Cost = $260,064/ 20640 Units = $12.6 per Unit
