Answer:

COGS= $15,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchase= 500 grills

Unitary cost= $75

Units sold= 200

To calculate the cost of goods sold, we need to use the following formula:

COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods purchased - ending finished inventory

COGS= 0 + 500*75 - 300*75

COGS= $15,000

or;

COGS= 200*75= $15,000
