Answer:
$2,870
Explanation:
The computation of the ending inventory using FIFO cash flow method is shown below:
Closing inventory units
= Purchase units including opening inventory - sales units
where,
Purchase units = 800 units + 900 units + 1100 units + 700 units
= 3,500 units
And, the sales units is 2,700 units
So, the ending inventory units is 800 units
Now the ending inventory is
= Purchase units on May 23 × price on that date + Purchase units on May 17 × price on that date
= 700 units × $3.60 + 100 units × $3.50
= $2,520 + $350
= $2,870
