If someone who had never watched Game of Thrones â or read the original written series A Song of Ice and Fire â asked who the main character was, what would you say? Though many point to Jon Snow, Tyrion Lannister, and Daenerys Targaryen as the main protagonists, narrowing it down to just one is tough. Thanks to the beauty of statistical analysis and network science, we finally have an answer: Tyrion Lannister.
As you can see, the average cost moved from $87.50 to $88.125âthis is why the perpetual average method is sometimes referred to as the moving average method. The Inventory balance is $352.50 (4 books with an average cost of $88.125 each).
To see how a company uses the weighted-average method to determine inventory costs using periodic inventory procedure, look at. Note that we compute weighted average cost per unit by dividing the cost of units available for sale, $690, by the total number of units available for sale, 80. Thus, the weighted-average cost per unit is $8.625, meaning that each unit sold or remaining in inventory is valued at $8.625.
