Trans Co. uses a periodic inventory system. The following are inventory transactions for the month of January: 1/1 Beginning inventory 1/5 Purchase 1/15 Purchase 1/20 Sales at $10 per unit
10,000 units at $3 5,000 units at $4 5,000 units at $5 10,000 units
Trans uses the average pricing method to determine the value of its inventory. What amount should Trans report as cost of goods sold on its income statement for the month of January? Answer:
$ 37,500
The average purchase price of the units available for sale is (10,000x3) + (5,000x4) + (5,000x5) / (10,000+5,000+5,000)= $3.75. Thus the cost of goods sold is 10,000 x $3.75 = $37,500.
