    Opening inventory = 1,450 x $34 = 49,300

    Purchases = 890 x $55 = 48,950

    Purchases = 650 x $45 = 29,250

    Total 2,990 127,500

    Less:

    Sales 350 @ $34 11,900

    Sales 1,100 @ $34 37,400

    Sales 520 @ $55 28,600

    Closing inventory 1,020 units 49,600

    Cost of ending inventory = $49,600

    Explanation:

    In FIFO method, socks are issued out on first come, first served basis. The 350 units that were first issued will be valued at $34 per unit, the next 1,100 units will also be valued at $34. These two issues were taken from the opening inventory and are expected to be valued at the cost of opening inventory. the next 520 units sold will be valued at $55. This issue was made from 890 units purchased after the opening inventory.
