    How to calculate this using FIFO?
    Scott Company had a beginning inventory on January 1 of 100 units of Product CRV at a cost of $200 per unit. During the year, the following purchases and return were made:

    Mar. 15 300 units at $224
    July 20 250 units at $235
    Sept. 4 200 units at $238
    Sept. 5 50 units returned at $238
    Dec. 2 100 units at $250

    By year-end, 700 units were sold. Scott Company uses a periodic inventory system.

    Any help you could give me, I appreciate it. :)

    100 * $200 = $20,000
    300 * $224 = $67,200
    250 * $235 = $58,750
    50 * $238 = $2,383
    ---- -------------
    700 $148,336 (COGS)

    The remaining balance in the inventory account is:
    200 @ $238
    100 @ $100
