FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT I

FINAL REQUIREMENT
FIFO METHOD
1. Cindy Sheppard runs a candy shop. She enters into the following transactions
during July:

July 1 Purchases 1,200 lollipops at $1 each.


July 13 Purchases 500 lollipops at $1.20 each.
July 14 Sells 700 lollipops at $2 each.

First of all, how many lollipops does she have at the end of the month?

Answer:
1,200 + 500 700 = 1,000 lollipops

DATE DETAILS NUMBER UNIT VALUE


July 1 Purchased 1,200 1,200 1 1,200
lollipops at 1
each
July 13 Purchased 500 1,200 1 1,200
lollipops at 1.20 500 1.20 600
each 1,700 n/a 1,800
July 14 Sells 700 500 1 500
lollipops at 2 500 1.20 600
each 1,000 n/a 1,100

Using the First-In-First-Out method, our closing inventory comes to $1,100. This equates to
a cost of $1.10 per lollipop ($1,100/1,000 lollipops).
2. LIFO METHOD

This method assumes that the last inventories bought are the first ones to be sold,
and that inventories bought first are sold last.

The value of our closing inventories in this example would be calculated as follows:

DATE DETAILS NUMBER UNIT VALUE


July 1 Purchases 1,200 1,200 1 1,200
lollipops at 1
each
July 13 Purchases 500 1,200 1 1,200
lollipops at 500 1.20 600
1.20 each 1,700 n/a 1,800
July 14 Sells 700 1,000 1 1000
lollipops at 2 0 1.20 0
each 1,000 n/a 1000

Using the Last-In-First-Out method, our closing inventory comes to $1,000. This equates to
a cost of $1.00 per lollipop ($1,000/1,000 lollipops).

The LIFO method is commonly used in the U.S.A.
