Workings:

Average Cost per Unit = Total Cost/Total Quantity

For Example On January 10:

Total Cost = $562,400+$1,909,200 = $2,471,600

Total Quantity = 7,400 + 22,200 = 29,600

Average Cost per Unit = $2,471,600/29,600 = $83.50 

 

For Example On February 10:

Total Cost = $1,112,220 + $4,715,280 = $5,827,500

Total Quantity = 13,320 + 53,280 = 66,600

Average Cost per Unit = $5,827,500/66,600 = $87.50
