Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Units sold = $900,000 ÷ $10 per unit = 90,000 units
Units in beginning inventory + Units produced = Units sold + Units in ending inventory
25,000 units + 80,000 units = 90,000 units + Units in ending inventory
Units in ending inventory = 25,000 units + 80,000 units - 90,000 units = 15,000 units
