Assuming the use of a periodic inventory system, compute Cost of Goods Sold under each method of inventory: average cost. FIFO, UFO, and specific identification. For specific idgntification, assume that the first sale was selected from the beginning inventory and the second sale was selected from the January 22 purchase. 1b. Assuming the use of a periodic inventory system, prepare a partial income statement under each method of inventory: (a) average cost, (b) FIFO, (c) LIFO, and (d) specific identification. For specific identification, assume thot the first sale was selected from the beginning inventory and the second sale was selected from the January 12 purchase. 2a. Between FIFO and LIFO, which method would result in the higher pretax income? 2b. Between FIFO and LIFO, which would result in the higher EPS? 3. Between FIFO and LIFO, which method would result in the lower income tax expense? Assume a 20 percent average tax rate. 4. Between FIFO and LIFO, which method would produce the more favorable cash flow? Complete this question by entering your answers in the tabs below.
