• This will affect both the income statement and the balance sheet.

Based on the assumption that the items are sold in the order acquired.

When a sale occurs:• The earliest units purchased are

charged to Cost of Goods Sold.• The cost of the most recent purchases

remain in merchandise inventory.

Under FIFO, units are assumed to be sold in the order acquired. Therefore, of the 20 units sold on August 14, the first 10 units come

from beginning inventory. Therefore, those 10 units are removed from the inventory record based on the cost of those units of $91.
