Answer:

Cost of goods sold = $590

Explanation:

Under the last in first out (LIFO), inventories are priced using the price of the lastest batch in stock and then the next second latest batch and so on.

The cost of goods sold would be

Nov 4   -  10 × $19 = $190

Nov 17   -  20 × $20 = $400

Cost of sold =  190 + 400 = $590
