Merchandise inventory purchases for a firm for a three-month period are: January: 2,000 units @ $12 per unit; February: 1,800 @ $14 per unit; March 2,600 units @ 15 per unit. What is the mean unit cost of merchandise inventory?

1 answer

mean cost=(total cost)/total number units.

= (2000*12+1800*14+2600*15) /(2000+1800+2600)
