A Level Accounting (9706)•9706/11/M/J/18
Question 23 from 9706/11/M/J/18

Explanation

Weighted Average Cost (AVCO) under Perpetual Inventory System Steps:

  • Start with opening inventory: 20 items × 5=5 = 5=100 total cost, average $5 per item.
  • Add March 6 purchase: 12 items × 9=9 = 9=108, new total cost 100+100 + 100+108 = $208, total items 20 + 12 = 32.
  • Calculate AVCO: 208÷32items=208 ÷ 32 items = 208÷32items=6.50 per item.
  • Closing inventory on March 7 (before March 17 sale): 32 items valued at $6.50 each.

Not enough information: The calculated AVCO per unit is $6.50, which does not match any choice; sales on March 17 occur after closing date, but choices suggest possible error in dates or numbers.

Final answer: Not enough information.

Topic: Preparation of financial statements
