Assume its accounting records provided the following information at the end of the annual accounting period, December 31.
Transactions | Units | Unit Cost | |||||
Beginning inventory, January 1 | 3,200 | $ | 45 | ||||
Transactions during the year: | |||||||
a. | Purchase, January 30 | 4,550 | 55 | ||||
b. | Sale, March 14 ($100 each) | (2,850 | ) | ||||
c. | Purchase, May 1 | 3,250 | 75 | ||||
d. | Sale, August 31 ($100 each) | (3,300 | ) | ||||
Assuming that for the Specific identification method (item 1d) the March 14 sale was selected two-fifths from the beginning inventory and three-fifths from the purchase of January 30. Assume that the sale of August 31 was selected from the remainder of the beginning inventory, with the balance from the purchase of May 1.
