What is LIFO and FIFO ?

Answer Posted / amit

both are methods of inventory or stock valuation.

Under LIFO unit value of the latest stock will be applied to
value the stock of goods for closing the books of accounts.
Under FIFO unit value of the earliest stock will be applied
to value the stock of goods for closing the books of accounts.

However for issue of products for sale or materials for
manufacturing, stock from the earliest stock will be issued
- i.e for product/material use Fist in First Out (FIFO)
principle is applied.
