A physical count of merchandise inventory on July 30 reveals that there are 48 units on hand. Using the LIFO inventory method, the amount allocated to cost of goods sold for July is

The explanation of the answers is now provided as follows:

Last in, first out (LIFO) inventory method refers to a method under which the costs of the costs of the most recent goods purchased or manufactured are expensed first.

Thereforee, the amount allocated to cost of goods sold for July can be calculated as follows:

Total units available for sales = 30 + 105 + 15 = 150 units

Units sold = Total units available for sales - Units on hand on July 30 = 150 - 48 = 102 units

Cost of goods sold for July = Value of 15 units July 22 purchases + (87 units * Cost per units of purchases on July 7) = $330 + (87 * $20) = $330 + $1,740 = $2,070

Therefore, the amount allocated to cost of goods sold for July is $2,070.
