Answer #1

Answer

As per U.S. GAAP inventories are valued at cost or market, whichever is lower (LCM).

Here, market value = Current replacement value that is subject to :-

  1. Upper limit (Ceiling) = Net Realizable Value (NRV)

  2. Lower limit= Net Realizable Value (NRV) - Normal Profit Margin

Case

Cost

Market value

Inventory Value (Lower of Cost or market)

1

$ 5450

$ 5500

$ 5450

2

$5800

$5600

$ 5600
