Required: 1. Compute cost of goods available for sale and the number of units available for sale.
2. Compute the number of units in ending inventory.
3. Compute the cost assigned to ending inventory using (a) FIFO, (b) LIFO, (c) weighted average, and (d) specific identification. For specific identification, units sold consist of 660 units from beginning inventory, 230 from the February 10 purchase, 110 from the March 13 purchase, 130 from the August 21 purchase, and 380 from the September 5 purchase. (Round your average cost per unit to 2 decimal places.)
