Question

On January 1, 2018, Avondale Lumber adopted the dollar-value LIFO inventory method. The inventory value for its one inventory pool on this date was $280,000. An internally generated cost index is used to convert ending inventory to base year. Year-end inventories at year-end costs and cost indexes for its one inventory pool were as follows Year Ended December 31 2018 2019 2020 2021 Inventory Year-End Costs $356,530 367,500 416,580 446,355 Cost Index (Relative to Base Year) 1.01 1.05 1.06 1.09 Required: Calculate inventory amounts at the end of each year. (Round intermediate calculations and final answers to the nearest whole dollars.)

Explanation / Answer

Date Inventory Layers Converted to Base Year Cost Inventory Layers Converted to Cost Ending Inventory DVL Cost Inventory at Year End Cost / Year-End Cost Index = Inventory Layers at Base Year Cost Inventory Layers at Base Year Cost Year-End Cost Index = Inventory Layers Converted to Cost 1/1/2018        280,000.00 /               1.00 =            280,000.00 Base           280,000.00 X           1.00 =             280,000.00        280,000.00 12/31/2018        356,530.00 /               1.01 =            353,000.00 Base           280,000.00 X           1.00 =             280,000.00 2018             73,000.00 X           1.01 =                73,730.00        353,730.00 12/31/2019        367,500.00 /               1.05 =            350,000.00 Base           280,000.00 X           1.00 =             280,000.00 2018             70,000.00 X           1.01 =                70,700.00        350,700.00 12/31/2020        416,580.00 /               1.06 =            393,000.00 Base           280,000.00 X           1.00 =             280,000.00 2018             70,000.00 X           1.01 =                70,700.00 2020             43,000.00 X           1.06 =                45,580.00        396,280.00 12/31/2021        446,355.00 /               1.09 =            409,500.00 Base           280,000.00 X           1.00 =             280,000.00 2018             70,000.00 X           1.01 =                70,700.00 2020             43,000.00 X           1.06 =                45,580.00 2021             16,500.00 X           1.09 =                17,985.00        414,265.00
