1.
2,100 units available for sale – 1,400 units sold = 700 units in the
ending inventory.
2.
$9,324 cost of goods available for sale ÷ 2,100 units available for
(b)
1.
FIFO will yield the highest gross profit because this method will
yield the lowest cost of goods sold figure in the situation
presented. The company has experienced rising purchase prices
2.
FIFO will yield the highest ending inventory because FIFO uses the
most recent purchase prices to cost the ending inventory units.

(c) FIFO matches older costs with revenue. When prices are declining, as
in this case, this results in a higher amount for cost of goods sold.
TIME AND PURPOSE OF PROBLEMS
Problem 8.1 (Time 25–35 minutes)
Purpose—to provide a multipurpose problem with trade discounts, goods in transit, comparative FIFO
and average cost computations, and inventoriable cost identification.
Problem 8.2 (Time 25–35 minutes)
Problem 8.3 (Time 20–25 minutes)
Problem 8.4 (Time 30–40 minutes)
Purpose—to provide a problem where the student must compute the inventory using a FIFO, specific
Problem 8.5 (Time 25–35 minutes)
Purpose—to provide a problem where the student must compute the inventory using a FIFO and
Problem 8.6 (Time 20–25 minutes)
Purpose—to provide a problem where the student must compute cost of goods sold using FIFO and
average cost, under both a periodic and perpetual system.
*Problem 8.7 (Time 40–55 minutes)
Purpose—to provide a problem where the student must compute the inventory using a FIFO, LIFO, and
*Problem 8.8 (Time 40–55 minutes)

periodic (rather than perpetual) inventory method must be assumed.
