The correct answer is C: $4,250

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Product A:

January 1: 150 units costing $21 each.

Purchases:

200 units at $22.18

250 units $23.28

100 units $24

January 31, 2014: 200 units of product A on hand.

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

Inventory cost = 150*21 + 50*22.18 = $4,259

Rounding to 4250
