Computation of Amount of Ending Inventory using FIFO Method:

Total units = 200+300+400+100 = 1000

Number of Units Sold = 800

 

Ending Inventory in Units = 1000-800 = 200

 

According to FIFO Method units purchased first will be sold out first. So, In this case Units from last two purchases will remain.

So,

Amount of Ending Inventory = (100 units*$1.30) + (100 units*$1.20)

= $130+$120

Amount of Ending Inventory = $250
