Problem Definition • Assume that Kuffel Co. uses a periodic inventory system. Calculate cost of goods sold and ending inventory under FIFO and LIFO. • Assume that Kuffel Co. uses a perpetual inventory system. Calculate cost of goods sold and ending inventory under FIFO and LIFO. • Explain why the FIFO results for cost of goods sold and ending inventory are the same in your answers to parts a and b, but the LIFO results are different.
Problem Solution Solution approach: Calculate goods available for sale in units and dollars, and ending inventory in units. These amounts are the same for both FIFO and LIFO under either a periodic or perpetual inventory system.

Problem Definition • Assume that Kuffel Co. uses a periodic inventory system. Calculate cost of goods sold and ending inventory under FIFO and LIFO. • Assume that Kuffel Co. uses a perpetual inventory system. Calculate cost of goods sold and ending inventory under FIFO and LIFO. • Explain why the FIFO results for cost of goods sold and ending inventory are the same in your answers to parts a and b, but the LIFO results are different.
Problem Solution c. Under FIFO, the periodic and perpetual inventory systems always result in the same dollar amounts being assigned to ending inventory and cost of goods sold – once first-in, always first in – and the timing of the application of the FIFO rules makes no difference. (continued)
Problem Solution • (concluded) Under LIFO, the “last-in cost” changes each time another inventory item is purchased. Thus, the timing of the application of the LIFO rules is relevant, and different results will occur under the periodic and perpetual systems.
Accounting What the Numbers Mean 9e You should now have a better understandingof the FIFO and LIFO cost flow assumptions under the periodic and perpetual systems. Remember that there is a demonstration problem for each chapter that is here for your learning benefit. David H. Marshall Wayne W. McManus Daniel F. Viele
