Answer:

b. $3,800.00

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of cost of the ending inventory is given below:-

Month Units Price Amount

Jan 2.00 $120.00 $240.00

Feb 4.00 $130.00 $520.00

May 6.00 $140.00 $840.00

Sept 4.00 $150.00 $600.00

Nov 10.00 $ 160.00 $1,600.00

Ending Inventory $3,800.00

So, for computing the cost of ending inventory we simply multiply units with amount of every Month.
