    Weighted-average inventory costing method Ending Inventory = $ 9666.67 = $ 9667

    Explanation:

    Date Particulars Units Unit Cost Total Cost

    January 31 Purchases 300 $ 60 $ 18,000

    February 28 Purchases 150 $ 25 $3750

    Total 450 $ 21,750

    Weighted-average inventory costing method = Total Cost / Total Units=

    $ 21,750/450 = $48.33 purchase price per unit

    Sales 250 units at $ 70 = $ 17500

    Ending Units = Purchases-Sales = 450-250 = 200

    Weighted-average inventory costing method Ending Inventory = $ 9666.67

    200 units at 448.33 = $ 9666.67 = $ 9667
