Calc by determining AVG cost per unit of all inventory and mutiplying it by the number units sold
Moving AVG COGS?
Moving AVG method the COGS is calc using the AVG cost per unit and recalculated each time a new purchase is made
LIFO during inflation what happens to COGS and ending inventory?
LIFO would have a high COGS due to it selling it’s most expensive items first due to inflation
Inventory would be lower due to the lower cost. The lower cost item wouldn’t be touch due to the LIFO method
Net income and gross profit will be lower
Taxes will be lower as well
FIFO during inflation what happens to COGS and ending inventory?
FIFO COGS will be lower due to being able to sell the cheapest cost first
Ending inventory value it will produce higher because it sold the recent and priciest product first
End result the Net income and gross profit will be higher and taxes will be higher as well
Explain how to CALC weighted AVG method, COGS?
To calc the COGS using the weighted AVG method we need to total the units and costs.
Once we obtain that we need total we need to divide the units total by the cost total to get a AVG cost price
Next we multiply the AVG cost price by the amounts of units sold we get the Moving AVG COGS
What happens to ENDING INVENTORY when it’s overstated?
Meaning inventory is too high which in result will cause a decrease in COGS and an increase in net income
