Which method of inventory valuation is being described?
Characteristic FIFO LIFO AVCO
Potentially out of date valuation on issues.
The valuation of inventory rarely reflects the actual
purchase price of the material.
Potentially out of date closing inventory valuation.

to inventory that consist of liquid materials e.g. oil.
This inventory valuation method is particularly suited
to inventory that has a short shelf life e.g. dairy products.

In times of rising prices this method will give higher profits.
In times of rising prices this method will give lower profits.
In times of rising prices this method gives a middle level of

Are the following statements true or false?
Statement True False
In periods of rising prices, FIFO gives a higher valuation of
closing inventory than LIFO or AVCO.
In periods of falling prices, LIFO gives a higher valuation of
issues of inventory than FIFO or AVCO.
AVCO would normally be expected to produce a valuation of
closing inventory somewhere between valuations FIFO and LIFO.
FIFO costs issues of inventory at the most recent purchase price.
AVCO costs issues of inventory at the oldest purchase price.
LIFO costs issues of inventory at the oldest purchase price.
FIFO values closing inventory at the most recent purchase price.
LIFO values closing inventory at the most recent purchase price.
AVCO values closing inventory at the latest purchase price.
