Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the ending inventory by following methods are

a. Under FiFO

= 14 units at $39

= $546

b. Under LIFO

= 14 units at $29

= $406

c, Under average cost method

But before that the average cost per unit should be determined

= (22 units at $29 + 31 units at $20 + 46 units at $39) ÷ (22 units + 31 units + 46 units)

= ($638 + $620 + $1,794) ÷ (99 units)

= $30.83

Now the ending inventory is

= $30.83 × 14 units

= $431.62

= $432
