Bududeen i disagree...if they allocate different costs to ending balance, then beginning balance by deduction is also different...because ending balance for this period becomes beginning balance for the next period
vatsal92 You're technically right Bududeen, but you're suppose to tackle this question from a micro perspective.
choas69 chill.... you cant just disagree with CFA man.
ashish100 "i disagree" lmao
zhefuli Recall Q1: "At year-end, all COG available for sale either become COGS or ending inventory."
