Answer:

COGS= $14,716

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Beginning inventory 920 $ 7.30

Mar. 10 Purchase 590 7.75

Mar. 16 Purchase 790 8.16

Mar. 23 Purchase 520 8.56

Marvin sold 1,930 units of inventory during the month.

Under the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method, the cost of goods sold is calculated using the cost of the first units incorporated into inventory:

COGS= 920*7.3 + 590*7.75 + 420*8.16

COGS= $14,715.7

COGS= $14,716
