1.

To adjust a company’s LIFO cost of goods sold to FIFO cost of goods sold

the ending LIFO reserve is added to LIFO cost of goods sold.

the ending LIFO reserve is subtracted from LIFO cost of goods sold.

an increase in the LIFO reserve is subtracted from LIFO cost of goods sold.

a decrease in the LIFO reserve is subtracted from LIFO cost of goods sold.

2.

All of the following statements are true regarding the LIFO reserve except:

Companies using LIFO are required to report the LIFO reserve.

The financial statement differences of using LIFO normally increase the longer a company uses LIFO.

Current ratios and the inventory turnover can be significantly affected if a company has material LIFO reserves.

The equation (LIFO inventory – LIFO reserve = FIFO inventory) adjusts the inventory balance from LIFO to FIFO.
