Accounting

ABC and XYZ are identical except that ABC uses the first-in-first-out (i.e., FIFO) cost-flow assumption when accounting for its inventory whereas XYZ uses the last-in-first-out (i.e., LIFO) cost-flow assumption. In the schedule shown below, you are provided with information by year about: (1) the numbers of units purchased (i.e., Units Purchased) by each company; (2) the cost that each company paid for each unit it purchased (i.e., Cost per Unit); (3) the number of units that each company sold (i.e., Units Sold); and (4) the per unit sales price that each company charged its customers (i.e., Price per Unit). You are provided with only one schedule because the two companies are identical except for the cost-flow assumptions that they use when accounting for their inventory.
