| Total | 750 | 33,550 | 250 | 17,019 | 600 | 31,531 | |||
Therefore cost of goods sold is $17,019 and cost of ending inventory is $31,531 under weighted average method.
(Under this method average cost is calculated after each purchase by dividing total cost of goods available for sale by total units available for sale).
