Instructions

Compute the ending inventories under the dollar-value LIFO method for 2016, 2017, and 2018. The base period is January 1, 2016,and the beginning inventory cost at that date was $45,000. Compute indexes to two decimal places.

Step by step solution

01

Price index schedule

	Inventories at Current Year cost	/	Inventories at Base year cost	=	Price Index
Dec 2016	$62,700	/	$56,000	=	1.12 or 112%
Dec 2017	$87,300	/	$68,400	=	1.28 or 128%
Dec 2018	$90,800	/	$70,000	=	1.29 or 129%

02

Inventories at dollar value LIFO

Date	Ending inventory at base year	Layer	X	Price Index	=	Dollar value LIFO
2015	$45,000	$45,000	X	100	=	$45,000
2016	$56,000	$11,000	X	112	=	$12,320
						$57,320
2017	$68,400	$12,400	X	128	=	$15,872
						$73,192
2018	$70,000	$1,600	X	129	=	$2,064
		$70,000				$75,256
