Under FIFO Method
The inventory which are first recorded are sold off first
think of it as ascending order
so
beginning inventory 15 10000
pruchases
feb 13 11500
june 20 12000
total 48 33500
used 42 units
beginning 15 10000
feb 13 11500
june 14 8400 (12000/20*14)
total 42 29900
so we have
ending inventory 6 3600 (33500-29900)
cost of usage 42 29900
Under LIFO Method
The inventory which are Last recorded are sold off first
think of it as descending order
so
beginning inventory 15 10000
pruchases
feb 13 11500
june 20 12000
total 48 33500
used 42 units
june 20 12000
feb 13 11500
beg.inventroy 9 6000 (10000/15*9)
total 42 29500
so we have
ending inventory 6 4000 (33500-29900)
cost of usage 42 29500
