Cortez Company sells chairs that are used at computer stations. Its beginning inventory of chairs was 240 units at $46 per unit. During the year, Cortez made two batch purchases of this chair. The first was a 310-unit purchase at $51 per unit; the second was a 375-unit purchase at $53 per unit. During the period, it sold 610 chairs.

Answer:

The correct answer for cost of goods sold is $30,030 and ending inventory is $16,695.

Explanation:

According to the scenario,the computation of the given data are as follows:

First we calculate the total cost of goods purchased.

Hence,

Beginning Inventory  = Total units × Rate

Where,  Total units = 240

Rate = $46 / unit

So, Beginning inventory = 240 × $46 = $11,040

First Purchase

Where,  Total units = 310

Rate = $51 / unit

So, First purchase = 310 × $51 = $15,810

Second Purchase

Where,  Total units = 375

Rate = $53 / unit

So, Second purchase = 375 × $53 = $19,875

Hence, Cost of Goods Available  = Beginning inventory + First purchase + Second purchase

= $11,040 + $15,810 + $19,875

= $46,725

So, we can calculate cost of goods sold using FIFO are as follows:

Total sold chairs = 610 units

So, Beginning inventory = Total units × Rate

Where,  Total units = 240

Rate = $46 / unit

So, Beginning inventory = 240 × $46 = $11,040

First Purchase

Where,  Total units = 310

Rate = $51 / unit

So, First purchase = 310 × $51 = $15,810

Second Purchase

Where,  Total units = 60

Rate = $53 / unit

So, Second purchase = 60 × $53 = $3,180

So, Cost of Goods sold  = Beginning inventory + First purchase + Second purchase

= $11,040 + $15,810 + $3,180

= $30,030

And Ending inventory = Cost of Goods Available - Cost of Goods sold

= $46,725 - $30,030

= $16,695
