Novak sold 97 snowboards, so the number of snowboards with it at the end of September is [tex]124 -97 = 27 units[/tex].

If Novak adopts First In First Out (FIFO) method, and 27 units are remaining, all 22 units purchased on Sept-26th and [tex]27 -22 = 5 units[/tex] from the purchases made on Sept-19th will remain in inventory.

So the value of inventory using FIFO will be [tex](22* 102) + (5*101) = 2749[/tex]

If Novak adopts Last In First Out (LIFO) method, all 11 units in inventory on  Sept-01st and [tex]27 -11 = 16 units[/tex] from the purchases made on Sept-12th will remain in inventory.

Hence inventory value using LIFO will be [tex](11* 97) + (16*100) = 2667[/tex]

We calculate the Average cost by dividing the Total Cost by total number of units purchased.

[tex]Average Cost = \frac{12458}{124} = 100.468[/tex]

The value of inventory using the average cost method is [tex]100.648 * 27 =2713[/tex].

Answer:

A)

ending inventory under FIFO method = $2,749

ending inventory under LIFO method = $2,667

ending inventory under the average-cost method = $2,713

B)

COGS under FIFO method = $9,709

COGS under LIFO method = $9,791

COGS under the average-cost method = $9,745

Explanation:

Novak Corp. inventory during September

sept. 1             inventory           11            $97             $1,067

sept. 12           purchases        44         $100             $4,400

sept. 19           purchases        47          $101              $4,747

sept. 26          purchases        22         $102             $2,244

totals                                       124                             $12,458

If Novak sold 97 units during September, ending inventory will be 27 units and their value under FIFO method = (22 x $102) + (5 x $101) = $2,244 + $505 = $2,749. COGS under FIFO method = $12,458 - $2,749 = $9,709

If Novak sold 97 units during September, ending inventory will be 27 units and their value under LIFO method = (11 x $97) + (16 x $100) = $1,067 + $1,600 = $2,667. COGS under LIFO method = $12,458 - $2,667 = $9,791

If Novak sold 97 units during September, ending inventory will be 27 units and their value under the average-cost method = ($12,458 / 124 units) x 27 units = $2,712.63 ≈ $2,713. COGS under the average-cost method = $12,458 - $2,713 = $9,745
