Piper Pipes has the following inventory data:
July 1 Beginning inventory 50 units at $120
5 Purchases 300 units at $112
14 Sale 200 units
21 Purchases 150 units at $115
30 Sale1 40 units

Assuming that a periodic inventory system is used, what is the cost of goods sold on a LIFO basis.

Cost of goods sold = $38,530

Explanation:

Given:

Total units sold = 200 units (14 July) + 140 units (30 July)

Total units sold =  340 units

Computation of Cost of goods sold Under (Last-in-First-out) method:

Cost of goods sold = First 150 units at $115 + Remaining units cost

Cost of goods sold = (150 units × $115) + (340 units - 150)($112)

Cost of goods sold = ($17,250) + (190)($112)

Cost of goods sold = ($17,250) + ($21,280)

Cost of goods sold = $38,530

b. a single paragraph.

a paragraph is a series of sentences that are organized and make sense, and are all related to a single topic . almost every piece of writing you do that is longer than a few sentences should be organized into paragraphs. this is because paragraphs show a reader where the subdivisions of an essay begin and end, and thus the reader see the organization of the essay into subjects in order to be able to understand its main points.
