Hello,everyone. I am a accounting student,second semester. I taking financial accounting and reporting this sem. I have some problem about "inventory" not understand,hope you all can help me to solute it.

1/1 beginning balance - 500 units, RM 150 per unit
10/1 purchase 300 units for RM 120 per unit
15/1 sold 100 units for RM 180 per unit
20/1 sales return- 5 units of product sold on 15/1
23/1 purchase return- 10 units of product purchased on 10/1

purchase discount RM 50
sales discount RM 30

Above is the example of problem i want to ask. I want to ask how to find the cost of goods sold and ending inventory? And how to calculate income statement?
* using FIFO inventory method

I confused with the sales return and purchase return for how to put them together with COGS.
