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).
Like FIFO and LIFO methods, AVCO is also applied differently in periodic inventory system and perpetual inventory system. In periodic inventory system, weighted average cost per unit is calculated for the entire class of inventory.t is then multiplied with number of units sold and number of units in ending inventory to arrive at cost of goods sold and value of ending inventory respectively. In perpetual inventory system, we have to calculate the weighted average cost per unit before each sale transaction.
