    d. $1,647

    Explanation:

    The computation of the ending inventory using the FIFO method under the periodic inventory system is shown below:

    But before that first we have to determine the ending inventory units which is

    = Beginning inventory + first purchase units + first purchase units + first purchase units - sold units

    = 7 units + 17 units + 20 units + 18 units - 35 units

    = 27 units

    Now the ending inventory is

    = 18 units * $62 + 9 units * $59

    = $1,116 + $531

    = $1,647
