Gross profit= $1150

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Beginning inventory: 240u*$4.00= $960

Purchase, (1/15/2017)= 120u*4.20= $504

Purchase, (1/28/2017)= 120u*4.40= $528

Ending inventory= 190u

The company uses FIFO (first in, first out).

Sale price= $8.00 each.

What is the gross profit for the month?

First, we need to calculate the number of units sold:

Sold units= Beginning inventory + purchase - ending inventory= 240 + 240 - 190= 290 units

Revenue= 290*8= $2320

Cost of goods sold= 240*$4 + 50*4.20= $1170

Gross profit= $1150
