    Instructions are listed below

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Jan. 1 Inventory 10 units at $32

    Feb. 17 Purchase 15 units at $33

    Jul. 21 Purchase 17 units at $34

    Nov. 23 Purchase 5 units at $35

    There are 9 units of the item in the physical inventory on December 31.

    A) FIFO (first-in, first-out)

    Inventory = 5*35 + 4*34 = $311

    B) LIFO (last-in, first-out)

    Inventory = 9*32 = $41

    C) Weighted average cost method

    Total Cost = 10*32 + 15*33 + 17*34 + 5*35 = $1,568

    Total units = 47 units

    Weighted average cost = 1568/47 = $33.36

    Inventory = 33.36*9 = $300.24
