问题如下:

Q. Exhibit 2, Note 2, indicates that “inventories valued on the LIFO basis totaled JPY94,578 million and JPY50,037 million at 31 December 2017 and 2018, respectively.” Based on this, the LIFO reserve should most likely:

选项:

A.increase.

B.decrease.

C.remain the same.

解释:

B is correct. The decrease in LIFO inventory in 2018 would typically indicate that more inventory units were sold than produced or purchased. Accordingly, one would expect a liquidation of some of the older LIFO layers and the LIFO reserve to decrease. In actuality, the LIFO reserve increased from JPY10,120 million in 2017 to JPY19,660 million in 2018. This is not to be expected and is likely caused by the increase in prices of raw materials, other production materials, and parts of foreign currencies as noted in the MD&A. An analyst should seek to confirm this explanation.

这里存货是94578 和50037,那表格1里面的608572,486465是什么数据,存货准备减少,但17年存货准备是10120,18年是19660,并没有减少呀

2 个答案

嗨,努力学习的PZer你好:


是的,新考纲把LIFO转换去掉了,但是practice题库有些还没删,所以题目没删,这个知识点可以不看了

嗨,努力学习的PZer你好:


Inventories. Inventories are valued at cost, not in excess of market. Cost is determined on the “average-cost” basis, except for the cost of finished products carried by certain subsidiary companies which is determined “last-in, first-out” (“LIFO”) basis. Inventories valued on the LIFO basis totaled ¥94,578 million and ¥50,037 million at December 31, 2017 and 2018, respectively. Had the “first-in, first-out” basis been used for those companies using the LIFO basis, inventories would have been ¥10,120 million and ¥19,660 million higher

than reported at December 31, 2017 and 2018, respectively.

同学这道题还有上题是不是看到这句话?这句话的意思是“存货按成本计价,而不是超出市场价。除若干子公司的产成品成本按“后进先出”(“LIFO”)基准确定外,成本按“平均成本”基准确定。截至2017年12月31日及2018年12月31日,按后进先出法计算的存货价值分别为945.78亿日元和500.37亿日元。”


这句话在上题其实没有什么作用,是一个干扰信息,考题还蛮喜欢这样添加干扰信息的。


而这道题考的是LIFO后进先出,正常情况企业采购量都是大于等于出售量的,所以较早买进来的存货应该一直在账上趴着,后面采购的存货再往上累积。


最早留下来的存货不受到影响+不断有新采购的存货进来。因此,正常情况LIFO inventory不会大幅下降的。


LIFO inventory大幅下降,就可以推测是不是有挖以前存货的LIFO liquidition现象。


LIFO reserve的数据,是用来把LIFO调成FIFO的,所以正常逻辑是已知LIFO和LIFO reserve,可以求出FIFO的数据。除非题目明确是给了LIFO和FIFO数据,要求倒挤LIFO reserve。这道题没法倒挤,因为条件不足,没给FIFO的数据。


因此这道题的解题思路是通过看inventory的金额大幅下降,进而推测存在LIFO liquidation的情况,再结合LIFO liquidation情况下LIFO reserve降低,就能得到答案。

虽然现在很辛苦,但努力过的感觉真的很好,加油!

但是24年不是不考LIFO FIFO转换问题吗?
