Cinnamon Corp. started business in 2007, uses a periodic inventory system and uses the weighted average cost method. During 2007, it purchased 75,000 units of inventory at €12 each and sold 30,000 units for €20 each. In 2008, it purchased another 35,000 units at €14 each and sold 38,000 units for €22 each. Its 2008 cost of sales (€ thousands) was closest to:

€4,883,000

Explanation:

The computation of cost of sales is shown below:-

Inventory = 35,000 ÷ €12

= 2,917 units

Weighted average cost of inventory

= (2,917 × €12) + (35,000 × €14)

=  €35,004 + €490,000

= €525,004

So weighted average cost = €525,004 ÷ €40,833.33

= €12.85

So, cost of sales = weighted average cost × sold units

= €12.85 × 38,000

= €4,883,000

all of them make sense but, i would have to say ask someone who has been there/or lives there, and/or read recent newspapers from that city.

hope this !
