The costs of ending inventory is similar under both periodic and perpetual inventory system if _________________ method is used.    a. first-in, first-out (FIFO)   b. standard cost    c. weighted average   d. last-in, first-out (LIFO)

During periods when costs are rising and inventory quantities are stable, cost of goods sold will be: Multiple Choice Lower under average cost than LIFO. Higher under FIFO than average cost. Lower under LIFO than FIFO. Higher under FIFO than LIFO.

Proponents of the LIFO inventory cost flow assumption argue that this costing method is superior to the alternatives because it results in better matching of revenue and expense. Required: a. Under LIFO, the release of the most recent purchase costs to the Cost of Goods Sold account results in better matching of revenue and expense. b. What is the impact on the carrying value of inventory in the balance sheet when LIFO rather than FIFO is used during periods of inflation? a. b. It understates the value of inventory in the balance sheet. It overstates the value of inventory in the balance sheet.
