Compute the gross margin for  FIFO:

Beginning inventory 85 units @ $21

Units purchased 114 units @ $38

Ending inventory consisted of 24 units. Sold 175 units at $65 each. All purchases and sales were made with cash. Operating expenses amounted to $2,500.

Sales: 175 @ 65 = $11,375

Cost of Goods Sold: (BI = 85 @ 21 = 1,785) + (PI = 90 @ 38 = 3,420) = $5,205

Gross Margin = 6,170

200

Compute the gross margin for LIFO:

Beginning inventory 85 units @ $21

Units purchased 114 units @ $38

Ending inventory consisted of 24 units. Sold 175 units at $65 each. All purchases and sales were made with cash. Operating expenses amounted to $2,500.

Sales: 175 @ 65 = $11,375

COGS = PI (114 units @ $38) + BI (61 units @$21)

GM = 11,375 - 5613 = $5,762

200

What is the formula for Weighted Average Cost per Unit?

Cost of Goods Available for Sale / 

Units on hand on the date of sale

200

What is a Gain?

Increase net income
• Not expected to recur from year-to-year
• Example: Selling land for more than we paid for it

300

Capitalize OR Expense:

Cost to repair an existing piece of equipment.

Expense

300

Based on the following information, what is net income w/ $2,500 total operating expenses?: 

Sales: 175 @ 65 = $11,375

Cost of Goods Sold: (BI = 85 @ $21 = 1,785) + (PI = 90 @ $38 = 3,420) = $5,205

Gross Margin = $6,170

Net Income = Sales - COGS = GM - OE = NI

$11,375 - $5,205 = $6170 - GM

6,170 - 2,500 = 3,670

300

Given, what is the NI when OE are 2,500?: 

Sales: 175 @ 65 = $11,375

COGS = PI (114 units @ $38) + BI (61 units @$21)

GM = 11,375 - 5613 = $5,762

NI = Gross Margin - OE = $3,262

300

Compute the gross margin for weighted average: 

Beginning inventory 85 units @ $21

Units purchased 114 units @ $38

Ending inventory consisted of 24 units. Sold 175 units at $65 each. All purchases and sales were made with cash. Operating expenses amounted to $2,500.

Sales: 175 @ 65 = $11,375

(BI= 85@$21= $1,785) & (UP= 114@$38= $4,332)

TI = $6117 for 199 units (85+114) 

WACPU = $6117 / 199 = 30.74

COGS = 175 x 30.74 = 5,379.27 & GM = $5995.73

300

What is a Loss?

Decrease net income

• Not expected to recur from year-to-year

• Example: Selling land for less than we paid for it

400

Capitalized or Expense:

Real estate commissions incurred on land purchased for a new plant.

Capitalize as Land

Compute the ending inventory for FIFO:

Beginning inventory 85 units @ $21

Units purchased 114 units @ $38

Ending inventory consisted of 24 units. Sold 175 units at $65 each. All purchases and sales were made with cash. Operating expenses amounted to $2,500.

24 @ $38 = $912

400

Compute the ending inventory for LIFO:

Beginning inventory 85 units @ $21

Units purchased 114 units @ $38

Ending inventory consisted of 24 units. Sold 175 units at $65 each. All purchases and sales were made with cash. Operating expenses amounted to $2,500.

24 @ $21 = $504

400

Compute the net income for weighted average: 

Beginning inventory 85 units @ $21 & Units purchased 114 units @ $38 & GM = $5995.73

Ending inventory consisted of 24 units. Sold 175 units at $65 each. All purchases and sales were made with cash. Operating expenses amounted to $2,500.

Net Income = Sales - COGS = GM - OE = NI

$11,375 - $5,379.27= $5995.73 - $2,500 = 

$3,495.73
