Smith Company adopted dollar-value LIFO (DVL) as of January 1, 2016, when it had an inventory of $690,000. Its inventory as of December 31, 2016, was $758,100 at year-end costs and the cost index was 1.05. What was DVL inventory on December 31, 2016?

$723,600 -$758,100/1.05 = $722,000 giving 2 layers of $690,000 and $32,000. $690,000 x 1.0 = $690,000 $32,000 x 1.05 = $33,600 $690,000 + $33,600 = $723,600
