What was cost of goods sold using the LIFO cost flow assumption?

Answer :

Answer:

$1,223,500

Explanation:

The computation of cost of goods sold using LIFO method is shown below:-

Here, we are using LIFO method so we calculate from last number of units and cost per unit so we need to get 1,100

So, units from last 270 + 440 + 340 = 1,050

Now we need 50 units from purchase units so cost of goods sold

= 270 × $1,190 + 440 × $1140 + 340 × $1,040 + 50 × 940

= $321,300 + $501,600 + $353,600 + $47,000

= $1,223,500
