How do we get 70, 280, and 50? Please show me the work and explanation. Thanks!

 

Scrappers Supplies tracks the number of units purchased and sold throughout each accounting period but applies its inventory costing
method at the end of each period, as if it uses a periodic inventory system. Assume its accounting records provided the following
information at the end of the annual accounting period, December 31.
Unit
Transactions
Units
Cost
Beginning inventory, January 1
Transactions during the year:
a. Purchase on account, March 2
b. Cash sale, April 1 ($46 each)
c. Purchase on account, June 30
d. Cash sale, August 1 ($46 each)

(50)
TIP: Although the purchases and sales are listed in chronological order, Scrappers determines the cost of goods sold after all of the
purchases have occurred.
Required:
1. Compute the cost of goods available for sale, cost of ending inventory, and cost of goods sold at December 31 under each of the
following inventory costing methods:
a. Last-in, first-out.
b. Weighted average cost.
c. First-in, first-out.
d. Specific identification, assuming that the April 1 sale was selected one-fifth from the beginning inventory and four-fifths from the
purchase of March 2. Assume that the sale of August 1 was selected from the purchase of June 30.
2. Of the four methods, which will result in the highest gross profit? Which will result in the lowest income taxes?
