Answer:

$659

Explanation:

For computing the ending inventory using the average cost method first we have to determine the average cost per unit which is shown below:

Average cost per unit is

= (Beginning inventory units × price per unit + first purchase inventory units × price per unit + second purchase inventory units × price per unit + third purchase inventory units × price per unit ) ÷ (Beginning inventory units + first purchase inventory units + second purchase inventory units + third purchase units)

= (10 units × $30 + 25 units × $32 + 30 units × $34 + 10 units × $35) ÷ (10 units + 25 units + 30 units + 10 units)

= ($300 + $800 + $1,020 + $350  ) ÷ (75 units)

= ($2,470 ) ÷ (75 units)

= $32.93 per unit

So, the ending inventory is

= Ending inventory units × average cost per unit

= 20 units × $32.93

= $659
