Kyto had used the LIFO method for financial reporting since its inception on January 1, 2012, and had maintained records adequate to apply the average-cost method retrospectively. Kyto concluded that average-cost is the preferable inventory method because extreme effects of FIFO or LIFO on the income statement and balance sheet are averaged.
