    A company values its inventory using the FIFO method. At 1 January 20X5 the company has 800 widgets in inventory, valued at $75 each.
    During the year ended 31 December 20X5 the following transactions took place:

    20X5
    1 February Purchased 500 widgets At $80 each
    1 May Sold 400 widgets For $45, 000
    1 August Purchased 450 widgets At $69 each
    15 Nov Sold 450 widgets For $28,750

    What is the value of the company’s closing inventory of widgets at 31 December 20X5?

    $67,050.
    Closing units = 800+500-400+450-450=900 units
    valued FIFO at =(450 x $69) + (450 x $80) = $67,050
