1.
To determine
Method of Inventory: Inventory refers to the current assets that a company expects to sell during the normal course of business operations, the goods that are under process to be completed for future sale, or currently used for producing goods to be sold in the market. Inventory is valued under three methods:
FIFO: Under this inventory method, the units that are purchased first, are sold first. Thus, it starts from the selling of the beginning inventory, followed by the units purchased in a chronological order of their purchases took place during a particular period.
LIFO: Under this inventory method, the units that are purchased last, are sold first. Thus, it starts from the selling of the units recently purchased and ending with the beginning inventory.
Average cost method: Under this method, the cost of the goods available for sale is divided by the number of units available for sale during a particular period.
To prepare: the 2018

- ( Appendix 6B) Inventory Costing Methods Grencia Company uses a periodic inventory system. For 2018 and 2019, Grencia has the following data (assume all purchases and sales are for cash): Required: 1. Compute cost of goods sold, the cost of ending inventory, and gross margin for each year using FIFO. 2. Compute cost of goods sold, the cost of ending inventory, and gross margin for each year using LIFO. 3. Compute cost of goods sold, the cost of ending inventory, and gross margin for each year using the average cost method. ( Note: Use four decimal places for per unit calculations and round all other numbers to the nearest dollar.) 4. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Which method would result in the lowest amount paid for taxes? 5. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Which method produces the most realistic amount for income? For inventory? Explain your answer. 6. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION What is the effect of purchases made later in the year on the gross margin when LIFO is employed? When FIFO is employed? Be sure to explain why any differences occur. 7. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION If you worked Problem 6-68B, compare your answers. What are the differences? Be sure to explain why any differences occurred.arrow_forwardLIFO 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.arrow_forwardReview Exercises 7-41 M7-8 Assuming no beginning inventory, what can be said about the trend of inventory prices if cost of goods sold computed when inventory is valucd using the FIFO method exceeds cost of goods sold when inventory is valued using the LIFO method? Under the dollar-value LIFO inventory method, Kern's inventory method, Kern's inventory on December 31, 2016, would be: LO 7.5 a. $650,000 b. $655,000 c. $660,000 d. $720,000 a. Prices decreased. When the double-extension approach to the dollar-value LIFO inventory cost flow method is used, the inventory layer added in the current year is multiplied by an index number. How would the following be used in the calculation of this index number? M7-10 b. Prices remained unchanged. c. Prices increased. d. Price trend cannot be determined from information given.
