TRC Corporation

Calculations, using FIFO:

a) Ending Inventory:

Ending Inventory in units = Units available for sale minus Units sold

Ending Inventory in units = 466 - 413 = 53 units

Ending Inventory value = Units x FIFO cost of last purchase = 53 x $42 = $2,226

b) Cost of goods sold:

Cost of goods sold = Beginning Inventory + Purchases - Ending Inventory

Cost of goods sold = $1,584 + 17,034 - 2,226 = $16,392

c) Sales Revenue:

Sales Revenue = Units sold x Selling price = 414 x $54 = $22,302

d) Gross Profit:

Gross Profit = Sales Revenue minus Cost of goods sold

Gross Profit = $22,302 - $16,392 = $5,910

Oct. 6    Purchase                     104                         42                4,368

b) Cost of goods available       466                                         $ 18,618

c) Sales                                      413                     $ 54           $ 22,302

d) Dec. 31 Ending Inventory      53                         42             $ 2,226

e) The FIFO (First-in, First-out) inventory method assumes that goods sold are from earlier inventory units, unlike Last-in, First-out (LIFO).  This means that beginning and earlier purchased inventory units are sold first before the latest purchases. Using the FIFO method, the ending inventory is valued at the cost of the most recent inventory purchases.
