Davidson Electronics has the following: Units Unit Cost Inventory, Jan. 1 5,000 $ 8 Purchase, April 2 15,000 10 Purchase, Aug. 28 20,000 12 If Davidson has 7,000 units on hand at December 31, the cost of ending inventory under the average-cost method is: Select one: a. $84,000. b. $70,000. c. $56,000. d. $75,250.

Option (d) $75,250

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Units Unit Cost

Inventory, Jan. 1 5,000 $8

Purchase, April 2 15,000 $10

Purchase, Aug. 28 20,000 $12

Units on hand = 7,000

Now,

Total cost of the inventory

= (5,000 * $8) + (15,000 * $10) + (20,000 * $12)

= $40,000 + $150,000 + $240,000

= $430,000

Therefore,

Average cost of the inventory = [ Total cost of the inventory ] : [ Total units ]

= $430,000 : (5,000 + 15,000 + 20,000)

= $430,000 : 40,000

= $10.75 per unit

Thus,

Cost of ending inventory = Units on hand * Average cost of the inventory

= 7,000 * $10.75

= $75,250

Option (d) $75,250
