The following data is available for one of the products sold by Learning Tree, Inc., which uses the perpetual inventory system:
If the moving average method is used, what is the amount assigned to cost of goods sold for the 2,500 units sold on May 10?
| May 1 | On hand, 1,000 units at $2.00 each | $2,000 | ||
| 5 | Purchased 2,000 units at $2.75 each | 5,500 | ||
| 10 | Sold 2,500 units at $16 each | |||
| 18 | Purchased 2,000 units at $4.00 each | 8,000 | ||
| 24 | Sold 1,500 units at $12 each | |||
| 31 | On hand, 1,000 units | 
Solution
on May 10, there are 3000 units with a total cost of $7,500. Average cost per unit = 7500/3000 = 2.5
Thus, cost of goods sold = 2500*2.5 = 6250
