Respuesta :

Answer:

25,500 units

Cost of goods available for sale is $215,625.00

Explanation:

The available for sale units in the year is the sum of opening stock of inventory and  purchases made in the course of the year as spelt below:

                              Quantity    Price per unit $            total value $

Opening stock         6,500          8.25                        53,625.00  

Purchases(Jan7)      9,000          8.00                        72,000.00

Purchases(Jan 21)    10,000        9.00                        90,000.00

Total                        25,500                                          215,625.00  

The total number of goods available for sale is 25,500 units

The total cost of goods available for sale is $215,625

The cost of goods sold would then be the costs of goods available for sale less the value of closing stock of inventory
