Wasan values inventory on the periodic weighted average basis.
What is the value of Wasan's inventory at 31 January 20X3 (to the nearest $1)?
Suggested Solution.
No of units available for sales
= 500 + 500 +600
=1600
No of units sold during the month
=250 +200 +300
=750
No of units at the end of the month
= 1600 -750
=850 Units
