The computation of the per unit value of ending inventory is shown below:

On Aug 2   18 units at $15.50        $279

On Aug 18  20 units at $14             $280

Total            38 units     $14.71        $559

On Aug 29

Sales units    -36 units     $14.71        -$529.58

On Aug 23     23 units     $18.50       $425.50

Oustanding    25 units     $18.20       $454.92

hence, the per unit value is $18.20
