Answer:

COGS= $130,000

Ending inventory= $110,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Units sold= 500

Purchases:

Dec. 1= 300 units at $250

Dec. 8=  600 units at $275

To calculate the cost of goods sold under the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method, we need to use the cost of the firsts units incorporated into inventory:

COGS= 300*250 + 200*275

COGS= $130,000

Now, the ending inventory:

Ending inventory= 400*275= $110,000
