Example 1:
You are required to value the inventory by FIFO (Perpetual System). Opening
Inventory is 8 Units at Rate of Rs. 10 at start of December and during the year the
following were the purchases and sales of inventory:

 
Solution:

2.2.2 Last in First Out (LIFO)


 The last-in, first-out inventory costing method is based on the assumption that the last items
received were the first items sold. In other words, the most recent purchases are assumed to be
sold first and the old goods remain in inventory. However, the assumed flow of goods can differ
from the actual physical flow. During inflationary times, recent costs are higher than old costs,
resulting in higher cost of goods sold, lower net income, and lower income taxes.
 
Example 2:
You are required to value the inventory by LIFO (Perpetual System). Opening Inventory is 8
Units at Rate of Rs. 10 at start of December and during the year the following were the purchases
and sales of inventory:

Solution:

2.2.3 Average or Weighted Average


The weighted-average inventory costing method uses a weighted-average cost per
inventory unit in assigning cost to units sold and to inventory. A weighted-average is
recalculated at the time of each purchase.
 
Example 3:
You are required to value the inventory by weighted average (Perpetual System).
Opening Inventory is 8 Units at Rate of Rs. 10 at start of December and during the
year the following were the purchases and sales of

Solution:
Results Variation in Inventory Valuation Methods
Each method is based on a different assumption about the cost of the merchandise that
are sold and the cost of the merchandise that are left in ending inventory:

Impact of LIFO and FIFO in Periods of Rising


Prices
Following are some impact on financial by using LIFO or FIFO:
Cost flow Assumption under Periodic Inventory
System
In physical inventory system stock taking are done at the end of period. No up-to-date
record for cost of sales are available. In this type of problems issuing date are not mention.
Example 4:
You are required to value the inventory (Cost of Sales and Ending Inventory) by
FIFO, LIFO and Weighted average (Periodic System) and Comparative Cost Sheet in
amount:
Date         Units @            Total
1 Jan   Balance   100   @ 10  Rs. 1,000
5 Jan   Purchases   100 @ 11       1,100
10 Jan  Purchases 150  @ 12        1,800
During the period 300 unit were sold @ Rs. 15 per unit

How to Calculate the NRV

The calculation of the NRV can be broken down into the following steps:

1. Determine the market value or expected selling price of an asset.


2. Find all costs associated with the completion and the sale of an asset
(cost of production, advertising, transportation).
3. Calculate the difference between the market value (expected selling
price of an asset) and the costs associated with the completion and sale
of an asset. It is a net realizable value of an asset.

Mathematically, the net realizable value can be found through the following
equation:

However, the net realizable value is also applicable to accounts receivables.


For the accounts receivable, we use the allowance for doubtful accounts
instead of the total production and selling costs.

Example of Calculating the NRV

Company ABC Inc. is selling the part of its inventory to Company XYZ Inc. For
reporting purposes, ABC Inc. is willing to determine the net realizable value of
the inventory that will be sold.
The expected selling price of the inventory is $5,000. However, ABC Inc. needs
to spend $800 to complete the goods and an additional $200 for
transportation expenses. Considering the available information, the net
realizable value of the inventory should be calculated in the following way:

NRV  =  $5,000 – ($800 + $200)  =  $4,000
