Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

(1) 150 units at $5 on January 1,

(2) 460 units at $6 on January 8, and

(3) 760 units at $8 on January 29.

Assume 915 units are on hand at the end of the month.

Cost of goods available for sale= 150*5 + 460*6 + 760*8= $9,590

Ending inventory= 760*8 + 155*6= $7,010

Cost of goods sold= 150*5 + 305*6= $2,580

The cost of goods available for sale for the Literacy for the Illiterate is $9,590.

The cost of ending inventory for the Literacy for the Illiterate is $7,010.

The cost of goods sold for the Literacy for the Illiterate is $2,580.

Data and Calculations:

Date      Description                Units   Unit Cost   Total Cost

Jan. 1    Beginning inventory   150            $5           $750

Jan. 8   Purchase                    460            $6           2,760

Jan. 29 Purchase                   760             $8          6,080

Total units/cost available    1,370                         $9,590

Jan. 31  Ending inventory      915

FIFO:

Cost of ending inventory = $7,010 (760 x $8 + 155 x $6)

Cost of goods sold = $2,580 ($9,590 - $7,010)

Thus, the cost of goods available for sale equals the cost of ending inventory plus the cost of goods sold.
