Assuming that a periodic inventory system is used, and operating expenses of $1800, what is the company's after-tax income using LIFO

Answer 1

Answer: $1,982.40

Step-by-step explanation:

The company's after-tax income using LIFO will be:

Sales = 306 × $63 = $19,278

Less: Cost of Goods Sold

132 × $49 = $6,468

174 × $47 = $8,178

Coat if goods sold = $14,646

Gross Profit = $19,278 - $14,646 = $4,632

Less: Operating Expense = $1,800

Income Before Tax = $2,832

Less: Tax = 30% × $2832 = $849.60

Income after Tax = $1,982.40
