Statement of Financial PositionIncome StatementC2Inventory Cost Flow AssumptionsC2Management decisions in accounting for inventory involve the following:Items included in inventory and their costs.Costing method (specific identification, FIFO, or weighted average cost).Inventory system (perpetual or periodic).Use of market values or other estimates.LIFO is not allowed under IFRS.Inventory Cost Flow AssumptionsFirst-In, First-Out(FIFO)Assumes costs flow in the order incurred.Specific IdentificationWhen each item can be identified with a specific purchase Weighted Average CostAssumes costs flow at an average of the costs available.

Related to comparability is consistency which refers to the use of the same methods for the same items, either from period to period within a reporting entity or in a single period across entities. When a change from one method to another will improve its financial reporting, the entity can do so, but the notes to the financial statements must report the type of change, its justification, and its effect on profit.A1Lower of Cost and Net Realizable valueInventory must be reported at NRV when NRV is lower than cost.Can be applied two ways:(1) separately to each individual item. to major categories of assets.NRV is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.P2lower of cost and NRVA motor sports retailer has the following items in inventory:P2lower of cost and NRVHere is how to compute lower of cost and NRV for individual inventory items.P2Recording the lower of cost and NRVP2Financial Statement Effects of Inventory ErrorsIncome Statement EffectsA2Financial Statement Effects of Inventory ErrorsStatement of Financial Position EffectsA2Inventory TurnoverInventory Turnover =Cost of goods sold Avg. inventoryShows how many times a company turns over its inventory during a period.
