    The correct answer is A.

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    March 1, 2016, inventory: 1,000 gallons at $7.20 = $7,200

    Purchases:

    Mar. 10: 600 gals at $7.25

    Mar. 16: 800 gals at $7.30

    Mar. 23: 600 gals at $7.35

    Sales:

    Mar. 5: 400 gals

    Mar. 14: 700 gals

    Mar. 20: 500 gals

    Mar. 26: 700 gals

    Under periodic inventory, the cost of the ending inventory is calculated at the end of the period.

    Total units = 3,000

    Units sold = 2,300

    Ending inventory = 700 units

    LIFO (last-in, first-out) inventory method:

    Inventory = 700*7.20 = $5,040
