Answer 1

a. $4,830

b. $2,310

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. The cost of goods sold as on Oct 24 is

Units sold from Oct 1 Inventory is 40 (200 units - 160 units)

And, From Oct. 15 Purchase is 110 (150 units - 40 units)

Now

Cost of goods sold on October 24 is $4,830 (40 × 30) + (110 × 33)

b. The inventory as on Oct 31 is

= (180 - 110) × $33

= $2,310
