A trader purchases plastic containers as follows:
1st January : 1000 containers @ Rs 50 each
15th January: 2000 containers @ Rs 55 each
21st January: 700 containers @ Rs 60 each
31st January: 1300 containers @ Rs 62 each
Assuming that there was opening inventory of 500 containers @ Rs 48 each and the sales for January amounted to 4500
containers @ Rs 75, determine the closing stock, cost of goods sold and profit under FIFO and LIFO methods of inventory
valuation.
FIFO LIFO
a) Sales 3,37,500 3,37,500
b) Opening inventory 24,000 24,000
c) Purchases 2,82,600 2,82,600
