Ending inventory = $7,090 (1 x $770 + 8 x $790)

Cost of goods sold = Cost of goods available for sale - Ending Inventory

Cost of goods sold = $10,760 ($17,850 - $7,090)

First-in, First-out (FIFO):

Ending inventory = $7,100 (1 x $780 + 8 x $790)

Cost of goods sold = Cost of goods available for sale - Ending Inventory

Cost of goods sold = $10,750 ($17,850 - $7,100)

Last-in, First-out (LIFO):

Ending inventory = $7,090 (1 x $770 + 8 x $790)

Cost of goods sold = Cost of goods available for sale - Ending Inventory

Cost of goods sold  = $10,760 ($17,850 - $7,090)
