Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option A
In case of rising prices (inflation), LIFO will provide lowest value of closing stock and profit. Since LIFO (last-in, first out) is moving the recent/higher costs to the cost of goods sold, the older/lower costs remain in inventory. The higher cost of goods sold generally results in smaller amounts of gross profit, net income taxable income, income tax payments, and certain financial ratios.
