Answer 1

Ending invenory= $1,298

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

July 1 Beginning inventory 35 units at $22 $770

July 7 Purchases 124 units at $24 $2,976

July 22 Purchases 18 units at $26 $468

A physical count of merchandise inventory on July 30 reveals that there are 57 units on hand.

To calculate the ending inventory using the LIFO (last-in, first-out) method, we need to use the cost of the firsts units incorporated into inventory:

Ending inventory= 35*22 + 22*24

Ending invenory= $1,298
