QUESTION 2 (20 marks) Req. 1 (5 marks) # units Unit Cost Total Cost Beginning inventory Jan. 1 5,000 \$1.40 7,000 Purchase March 5 5,000 \$1.60 8,000 Purchase Sept. 30 2,500 \$2.00 5,000 Total available for sale 12,500 20,000 Weighted Average Cost = \$20,000 / 12,500 units = \$1.6 per unit Ending inventory (periodic, WAC): Number of units on hand = units available for sale – units sold = 5,000 + 5,000 + 2,500 – 8,000 – 2,500 = 2,000 units Cost of the ending inventory = 2,000 x \$1.6 = \$3,200 Cost of goods sold (periodic , WAC): Number of units sold = 8,000 + 2,500 = 10,500 COGS = 10,500 x WAC = 10,500 x \$1.6 = \$16,800 Or COGS = Cost of goods available for sale – Ending inventory = \$20,000 – \$3,200 = \$16,800 Gross profit (periodic, WAC) : Sales = ( 8,000 x \$4.50) + (2,500 x \$4.80) = \$36,000 + 12,000 = \$48,000 Gross profit = Sales – COGS = \$48,000 – 16,800 = \$31,200 Req. 2 (2 marks) The gross profit will be higher if Janet Corporation used the FIFO method.
