Hurst Companys beginning inventory and purchases during the fiscal year ended December 31, 20-2, were as follows: There are 1,200 units of inventory on hand on December 31, 20-2. REQUIRED 1. Calculate the total amount to be assigned to the cost of goods sold for 20-2 and ending inventory on December 31 under each of the following periodic inventory methods: (a) FIFO (b) LIFO (c) Weighted-average (round calculations to two decimal places) 2.
