Perpetual Inventory Using FIFO

The following units of a particular item were available for sale during the calendar year:

Jan. 1 Inventory 4,200 units at $40
Apr. 19 Sale 2,600 units
June 30 Purchase 4,300 units at $44
Sept. 2 Sale 4,900 units
Nov. 15 Purchase 1,800 units at $47

The firm maintains a perpetual inventory system. Determine the cost of goods sold for each sale and the inventory balance after each sale, assuming the first-in, first-out method. Present the data in the form illustrated in Exhibit 3. Under FIFO, if units are in inventory at two different costs, enter the units with the LOWER unit cost first in the Cost of Goods Sold Unit Cost column and in the Inventory Unit Cost column.
