2. Determine the cost of the inventory on December 31 by the last-in, first-out method.

If the inventory of a particular model comprises one entire purchase plus a portion of another purchase acquired at a different unit cost, use a separate line for each purchase. If units are in inventory at two different costs, enter the OLDEST units first.

3. Determine the cost of the inventory on December 31 by the weighted average cost method.
