Respuesta :

Answer:

The amount of the cost of goods sold for this sale is $98.4

Explanation:

Marquis Company uses a weighted-average perpetual inventory system

August 2, 22 units were purchased at $3 per unit,

Total cost = $3 x 22 = $66

Average cost per unit: $3

August 18, 27 units were purchased at $5 per unit

Total inventory = $66 + $5 x 27 = $201

Average cost per unit = $201/(22+27) = $4.1

August 29, 24 units were sold

Cost of goods sold = 24 x $4.1 = $98.4
