Using the December 31, 2016, price level of 100 and the December 31, 2017, price level of 108, compute the inventory value at December 31, 2017, under the dollar-value LIFO method.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Ending inventory for Dec 2017 at dollar value LIFO comes out to be $989,000.

Step by step solution

01

Ending Inventory at base year price for 2017

Endinginventoryatbaseyearprice=EndinginventoryatcurrentyearpricePriceIndex=$1,053,0001.08=$975,000
