• Under the average-cost method, the business computes a new
average cost per unit after each purchase 201044 - Retail inventory 11 4/6/2022 Tasks at home 1/ Textbook: Chapter 6 • Quick Check • Starters • Exercises and Problems • Apply 2/ Self-study: Key References [2]: Chapter 11 Key References [3]: Chapter 3 201044 - Retail inventory 12 4/6/2022 The end of Chapter 6 Retail inventory 201044 - Retail inventory 13
