Replacement cost was higher than the carrying amount by $1,053 million at January 31, 2015 and $827 million at February 1, 2014. We follow the Link-Chain, Dollar-Value LIFO method for purposes of calculating our LIFO charge or credit. Required: a. At what dollar amount does Kroger report its inventory in its January 31, 2015, balance sheet? $ million b. What is the cumulative effect (through January 31, 2015) of the use of LIFO on Kroger's pretax earnings? (Show an increase as a positive number and a decrease as a negative number.) $ million c. Assuming a 35% tax rate, what is the cumulative (through January 31, 2015) tax effect of the use of LIFO to determine inventory costs? (Show an increase as a positive number and a decrease as a negative number.) (Round your answers to one decimal place.) $ million
