What is Fifo Cost of Goods Sold ?

Fifo Cost of Goods Sold is a method to assume that the oldest inventory purchases or production costs are the first to be used up or sold. In periods of rising prices, FIFO typically results in lower COGS compared to LIFO, because the older inventory costs are usually lower than the newer inventory costs. Using FIFO during periods of inflation typically results in lower COGS compared to LIFO, which increases reported gross profit and taxable income. Higher taxable income can lead to higher tax liabilities, making FIFO less advantageous in certain economic conditions. FIFO often results in higher inventory values on the balance sheet during inflationary periods because newer, higher costs remain in inventory. Understanding FIFO COGS is crucial for analysts comparing companies using different inventory methods, as it directly affects profitability and financial ratios. In summary, FIFO COGS is a method of calculating the cost of goods sold that uses the oldest inventory costs.
