COGS / Avg Inv. = Inv. Turnover (200,000 + 230,000) / 2 = 215,000 avg. inv. 1,600,000 / 215,000 = 7.44 Days' sales in inventory=Ending Inventory/Costs of goods sold × 365 =($230,000 / $1,600,000) × 365 = 52.47 days

Specific identification is the preferred method when each unit of product has unique features that markedly affect cost.

FIFO-results in a balance sheet inventory amount approximating replacement cost.

jan 1st 320 units@ 6.00 - 320 = 0 jan 9nth 85 [email protected] - 40 = 45units@$6.40 = $288.00 jan 25th 110 units@ 6.60 = 110units @$6.60 = $726.00 jan 31st 45units@$6.40 = $288.00 ______110units @$6.60 = $726.00 When we sell 18 units, we first use up all 10 units bought on Dec 7 and we use up 8 units bought on Dec 14 So our ending inventory is 12 units bought on Dec 14 15 units bought on Dec 21 Ending Inventory Cost = (12 x 10) + (15 x 12) = $300

LIFO-yields a balance sheet inventory amount often markedly less than its replacement cost,provides a tax advantage (deferral) to a corporation when costs are rising, matches recent costs against net sales.

Weight Average

you multiply the value times how many you have, to get a total value. Add up all those total values and divide by how many you have. For instance: 100 @ $10 = $1000 120 @ $11 = $1320 So you have total dollar value of $2320 and total units of 220. So $2320/220 = $10.55 average. i.e. you've averaged all 220 of the units, not just $10 & $11. Weighted average is trickier. When the first two purchases were made, it came out to a total cost of $290 for 30 units. This comes out to about $9.67 per unit. Eighteen units were sold leaving 12 units at a total cost of $116. Add to that the $180 purchased on Dec 21, and you have an ending inventory of $296
