Perpetual Inventory Using LIFO

Beginning inventory, purchases, and sales data for portable game players are as follows:

Apr. 1   Inventory 53 units @ $92
10   Sale 37 units
15   Purchase 67 units @ $98
20   Sale 38 units
24   Sale 9 units
30   Purchase 30 units @ $104

The business maintains a perpetual inventory system, costing by the last-in, first-out method.

Determine the cost of merchandise sold for each sale and the inventory balance after each sale, presenting the data in the form illustrated in Exhibit 4.

Under LIFO, if units are in inventory at two different costs, enter the units with the HIGHER unit cost first in the Cost of Merchandise Sold Unit Cost column and LOWER unit cost first in the Inventory Unit Cost column.
