A company made the following merchandise purchases and sales during the month of May:
$$\begin{array} { | l | l | l | l | }
\hline \text { May 1 purchased } & 380 & \text { units at } & \$ 15 \text { each } \
\hline \text { May 5 purchased } & 270 & \text { units at } & \$ 17 \text { each } \
\hline \text { May 10 sold } & 400 & \text { units at } & \$ 50 \text { each } \
\hline \text { May 20 purchased } & 300 & \text { units at } & \$ 22 \text { each } \
\hline \text { May 25 sold } & 400 & \text { units at } & \$ 50 \text { each } \
\hline
\end{array}$$
There was no beginning inventory. If the company uses the weighted-average inventory valuation method and the perpetual inventory method, what would be the cost of its ending inventory?
