  2. Inventory (stock) valuation A good estimate of closing stock is provided by three methods of stock valuation: • First-In-First-Out (FIFO) Method • Last-In-First-Out (LIFO) Method • Average Cost (AVCO) Method

  3. First-In-First-Out (FIFO) Method In this method we assume that the first set of inventory received is the first to leave the warehouse. The resulting ending inventory will be valued at current prices.

  5. Last-In-First-Out (LIFO) Method In this method we assume that the last set of inventory received is the first to leave the warehouse. The resulting ending inventory will be valued at older prices.

  7. Average Cost (AVCO) Method In this method, each time goods are purchased we calculate a new average cost of inventory. The average cost is calculated using the equation Average cost of inventory= Total value of goods on hand ÷ Quantity of goods on hand The resulting ending inventory will be valued at the last calculated average.
