August 24 400 units 2,520
August 30 300 units 1,980
1,400 units $8,400

A physical count of the inventory on August 31 reveals that there are 500 units on hand. Using the FIFO inventory method in a perpetual inventory system, how much is the value of the ending inventory on August 31?

$3,240
$5,160
