Answer #1

Under periodic records, the records are updated at the end of the period and not transaction wise

LIFO method states that Inventory purchased later will be sold first

Units in ending Inventory = 10,600-9200 = 1400 units

Hence, value = 1000*6.79 + 400*6.60 = $9430

Average Cost per unit = Total cost of goods available/Total Units available

= $6.35 per unit

Hence, value of ending Inventory = 6.35*1400 = $8,890

> Average Cost per unit is correct, however for Periodic LIFO, its 10,600 - 9,200 = 1,400 units.
(1,200 * 6.00) + (200 * 6.08) = $8,416
