Bank certificates of deposit Commercial paper

The amounts reported for ending inventory and cost of goods sold will differ depending on whether the weighted-average, FIFO, or LIFO cost flow assumption is used by the reporting company because the (cost/profit) per unit (purchased/sold) changes over time.

Blank 1: cost Blank 2: purchased

In times of rising prices, inventory profits (or phantom profits) are said to occur under the FIFO cost flow assumption. This occurs because under FIFO, the release of (older/newer), (higher/lower) costs to the income statement results in (higher/lower) profits than if current costs were to be recognized.

Blank 1: older Blank 2: lower Blank 3: higher

The LIFO cost flow assumption results in the most (distant/recent) costs being transferred to cost of goods sold. In times of rising prices, the costs transferred to cost of goods sold under LIFO will therefore be (higher/lower) than the costs transferred to cost of goods sold under FIFO.

Blank 1: recent Blank 2: higher
