Montoure Company uses a perpetual inventory system. It entered into the following calendar-year purchases and sales transactions

Date Activities Units Acquired at Cost Units Sold at Retail
Jan. 1 Beginning inventory 660 units @ $35 per unit
Feb. 10 Purchase 330 units @ $32 per unit
Mar. 13 Purchase 110 units @ $20 per unit
Mar. 15 Sales 760 units @ $75 per unit
Aug. 21 Purchase 180 units @ $40 per unit
Sept. 5 Purchase 570 units @ $36 per unit
Sept. 10 Sales 750 units @ $75 per unit
Totals 1,850 units 1,510 units

Required: 1. Compute cost of goods available for sale and the number of units available for sale.

2. Compute the number of units in ending inventory.

3. Compute the cost assigned to ending inventory using (a) FIFO, (b) LIFO, (c) weighted average, and (d) specific identification. For specific identification, units sold consist of 660 units from beginning inventory, 230 from the February 10 purchase, 110 from the March 13 purchase, 130 from the August 21 purchase, and 380 from the September 5 purchase. (Round your average cost per unit to 2 decimal places.)

Compute the cost assigned to ending inventory using FIFO. (Round your average cost per unit to 2 decimal places.)

Perpetual FIFO:
Goods Purchased Cost of Goods Sold Inventory Balance
Date # of units Cost per unit # of units sold Cost per unit Cost of Goods Sold # of units Cost per unit Inventory Balance
Jan 1 660 @ $35.00 = $23,100.00
Feb 10
Mar 13

Aug 21
Sept 5
Sept 10
Totals $0.00 $0.00

4. Compute gross profit earned by the company for each of the four costing methods. (Round your average cost per unit to 2 decimal places.)

FIFO LIFO Weighted Average Specific Identification
Sales
Less: Cost of goods sold
Gross profit $0 $0 $0 $0

This is repeated for Perpetual LIFO, Weighted Average, and Specific ID as well.
