Answer:

B) 1282

Explanation:

                                      Units         Per unit price        Total

Balance, 1/1/18               200               $5.00               $1,000

Purchase, 1/15/18           100                $5.30                 $530

Purchase, 1/28/18          100                $5.50                 $550

total                                400                                       $2,080

Balance, 1/31/18              140                                          $762

the first in, first out inventory method assigns cost of goods sold to the oldest merchandise available, so the 1/31/18 inventory's balance = (100 x $5.50) + (40 x $5.30) = $550 + $212 = $762

So COGS = $2,080 - $762 = $1,318

gross profit = revenue - COGS = [(400 - 140) x $10] - $1,318 = $2,600 - $1,318 = $1,282
