Gregor, Inc

question 90

Short Answer

Gregor, Inc., uses the LIFO cost-flow assumption to value inventory. Inventory for Gregor on January 1, 2011 was 100 units at a LIFO cost of $25 per unit. During the first quarter of 2011, 200 units were purchased costing an average of $40 per unit, and sales of 265 units at a retail price of $50 per unit were made.
-Assuming Gregor does not expect to replace the units of beginning inventory sold, what is the amount of cost of goods sold for the quarter ended March 31, 2011?
