Olson Company adopted the dollar-value LIFO method for inventory valuation at the beginning of 2015. The following information about the inventory at the end of each year is available from Olsons records: Required: 1. Calculate the dollar-value LIFO inventory at the end of each year. 2. Prepare the appropriate disclosures for the 2021 annual report if Olson uses current cost internally and LIFO for financial reporting.
LIFO and Inventory Pools On January 1, 2016, Grover Company changed its inventory cost flow method to the LIFO cost method from the FIFO cost method for its raw materials inventory. It made the change for both financial statement and income tax reporting purposes. Grover uses the multiple-pools approach under which it groups substantially identical raw materials into LIFO inventory pools. It uses weighted average costs in valuing annual incremental layers. The composition of the December 31, 2018, inventory for the Class F inventory pool is as follows: Inventory transactions for the Class F inventory pool during 2019 were as follows: On March 2, 2019, 4,800 units were purchased at a unit cost of 13.50 for 64,800. On September 1, 2019, 7,200 units were purchased at a unit cost of 14.00 for 100,800. A total of 15,000 units were used for production during 2019. The following transactions for the Class F inventory pool took place during 2020: On January 11, 2020, 7,500 units were purchased at a unit cost of 14.50 for 108,750. On May 14, 2020, 5,500 units were purchased at a unit cost of 15.50 for 85,250. On December 29, 2020, 7,000 units were purchased at a unit cost of 16.00 for 112,000. A total of 16,000 units were used for production during 2020. Required: 1. Prepare a schedule to compute the inventory (units and dollar amounts) of the Class F inventory pool at December 31, 2019. Show supporting computations in good form. 2. Prepare a schedule to compute the cost of Class F raw materials used in production for the year ended December 31, 2019. 3. Prepare a schedule to compute the inventory (units and dollar amounts) of the Class F inventory pool at December 31, 2020. Show supporting computations in good form.
Inventory Pools Stone Shoe Company adopted dollar-value LIFO on January 1, 2019. The company produces four products and uses a single inventory pool. The companys beginning inventory consists of the following: During 2019, the company has the following purchases and sales: Required: 1. Compute the dollar-value LIFO cost of the ending inventory. Round the cost index to 4 decimal places and all other amounts to the nearest dollar. 2. Next Level By how much would the companys gross profit differ if it had used four pools instead of a single pool?
Inventory Write-Down The inventories of Berry Company for the years 2019 and 2020 are as follows: Berry uses a perpetual inventory system and the FIFO inventory cost flow assumption. Required: 1. Assume the inventory that existed at the end of 2019 was sold in 2020. Prepare the necessary journal entries at the end of each year to record the correct inventory valuation if Berry uses the: a. direct method b. allowance method 2. Next Level Explain any differences in inventory valuation and income between the two methods.
Inventory Write-Down Stiles Corporation uses the FIFO cost flow assumption and is in the process of applying the LCNRV rule for each of two products in its ending inventory. A profit margin of 30% on the selling price is considered normal for each product. Specific data for each product are as follows: Inventory Write-Down Use the information in E8-1. Assume that Stiles uses the LIFO cost flow assumption and is applying the LCM rule. Required: 1. What is the correct inventory value for each product? 2. Next Level With regard to requirement 1, what effect does the imposition of the constraints on market value have on the inventory valuations?
On January 1 of Year 1, Dorso Company adopted the dollar-value LIFO method of inventory costing. Dorsos December 31 ending inventory records are as follows: Year 1: Current cost, 20,000; Index, 100 Year 2: Current cost, 33,600; Index, 120 Using the dollar-value LIFO method, compute Dorsos December 31 ending inventory for Year 2.
Inventory Costing Methods Crandall Distributors uses a perpetual inventory system and has the following data available for inventory, purchases, and sales for a recent year. Required: 1. Compute the cost of ending inventory and the cost of goods sold using the specific identification method. Assume the ending inventory is made up of 40 units from beginning inventory, 30 units from Purchase 1, 80 units from Purchase 2, and 40 units from Purchase 3. 2. Compute the cost of ending inventory and cost of goods sold using the FIFO inventory costing method. 3. Compute the cost of ending inventory and cost of goods sold using the LIFO inventory costing method. 4. Compute the cost of ending inventory and cost of goods sold using the average cost inventory costing method. ( Note: Use four decimal places for per-unit calculations and round all other numbers to the nearest dollar.) 5. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Compare the ending inventory and cost of goods sold computed under all four methods. What can you conclude about the effects of the inventory costing methods on the balance sheet and the income statement?
