The LIFO method is based on the assumption that the goods which are received last are issued first o The ending inventory consists of eartiest lots and is vatued at the price paid for such lots o The ending inventory is understated in the batance sheet at old costs o ln periods of rising prices lower income is reported since current costs (which are higher than the old costs) are matched
ln periods of fatting prices higher income is reported since current costs (which are lower than the otd costs) are matched
