    using the weighted average method

    average cost per unit = total cost/total units

    begning stock 70*30 = 2100

    purchases 10*10 = 100

    2200/80

    w. average per unit cost = 27.5

    purchases 15*12 = 180

    2200+180=2380 / (100+15)

    w. average per unit cost = 20.70

    there is no purchase after the 5/30 therefore the cost of ending stock under average method will be 20.7 per unit and 20.7*10 = 207 total closing cost.
