44. Specific Identification An actual physical flow costing method in which items still in inventory are specifically costed to arrive at the total cost of ending inventory. Page 248 in book

45. 44 Inventory Costing zSpecific Identification method zAssumed Cost Flow methods yFIFO- First-in, First-Out- earliest goods purchased first to be sold yLIFO- Last-in,First-Out- latest goods purchased the first to be sold yAverage Cost Method- costs are charged on the basis of weighted average unit cost

46. 45 What Makes Cost Flow Assumptions Necessary? Changing Prices

47. Use of Cost Flow Methods in Major U.S. Companies

48. The FIFO method assumes the earliest goods purchased are the first to be sold. Page 250 in book

49. The LIFO method assumes the latest goods purchased are the first to be sold. Page 251 in book

50. Page 252 in book The average cost method assumes that goods available for sale are homogeneous. The allocation of the cost of goods available for sale is made on the basis of the weighted average unit cost incurred.

51. Page 253 in book The average cost method assumes that goods available for sale are homogeneous.

52. 51 Factors Used in Selecting an Inventory Cost Method zIncome statement effects zBalance sheet effects zTax Effects

53. 52 Income Statement Effects zIn periods of increasing prices yFIFO reports the highest net income yLIFO the lowest yaverage cost falls in the middle. zIn periods of decreasing prices y FIFO will report the lowest net income yLIFO the highest yaverage cost in the middle.

54. 53 Balance Sheet Effects In a period of increasing prices costs allocated to ending inventory using: zFIFO will approximate current costs z LIFO will be understated

55. 54 Why Do Companies Use Lifo? zHigher cost of goods sold zLower net income Lower Income Taxes

56. 55 The Lower of Cost or Market Basis of Accounting for Inventories When the value of inventory is lower than its cost, the inventory is written down to its market value by valuing the inventory at the lower of cost or market (LCM) in the period in which the price decline occurs.

57. 56 Lower of Cost or Market (LCM) zdeparture from cost principle zfollows conservatism concept zcan be used only after one of the cost flow methods ( Specific Identification FIFO, LIFO, or Average Cost)

58. 57 Market Is... CURRENT REPLACEMENT COST

59. 58 How Much Inventory Should a Company Have? yOnly enough for sales needs yExcess inventory costs: xstorage costs xinterest costs xobsolescence - technology, fashion

60. Inventory Turnover Ratio = Cost of Goods Sold Average Inventory

61. Days in Inventory = 365 days Inventory Turnover Ratio

62. 61 Lifo Reserve And Its Importance For Comparing Results Of Different Companies zAccounting standards require firms using LIFO to report the amount by which inventory would be increased (or on occasion decreased) if the firm had instead been using FIFO. zThis amount is referred to as the LIFO reserve. Reporting the LIFO reserve enables analysts to make adjustments to compare companies that use different cost flow methods.
