**Inventory Management for Hammers:**

**Beginning Inventory, Purchases, and Sales Data:**

- **March 3**: 
  - Beginning Inventory: 12 units at $15 each

- **Transactions:**
  - March 11: Purchase of 13 units at $17 each
  - March 19: Purchase of 9 units at $19 each
  - March 25: Purchase of 21 units at $20 each
  - March 29: Sale of 10 units

**Objective:**

Calculate the cost of goods sold and ending inventory using a perpetual inventory system under the following cost-flow assumptions:

1. **First-in, First-out (FIFO)**
2. **Last-in, First-out (LIFO)**

**Inventory Record Structure:**

The inventory records are structured with columns for:
- Date
- Quantity (Qty.)
- Unit Cost
- Total Cost

These are divided into sections for Purchases, Cost of Goods Sold, and Inventory Balances.

### Method Definitions:

- **FIFO (First-in, First-out):** Assumes the oldest inventory items are sold first.
  
- **LIFO (Last-in, First-out):** Assumes the newest inventory items are sold first.

The exercise requires completing inventory cards for each transaction date, detailing the flow of costs in and out of the system, and calculating the resulting balances in the inventory account.

### Diagram Explanation:

The diagram consists of a table with placeholders where calculations should be input for each transaction under both FIFO and LIFO assumptions. Each row represents a transaction or balance calculation.

- **Purchases:** The quantities and costs of items acquired during the period.
- **Cost of Goods Sold (COGS):** Reflects which items (and costs) have left inventory following sales.
- **Inventory Balances:** Displays remaining quantities and costs after each transaction.

This exercise is designed to help students understand practical applications of FIFO and LIFO in inventory management, emphasizing how these methods impact financial statements.
