    So for GAAP, inventory valuation is lower of cost or market, with market being the median “middle” value of:

    Price Ceiling (NRV or Sales Price – Cost to Dispose)

    Replacement Cost

    Price Floor (NRV – Profit Margin)

    Is this correct? And is price floor NRV – (Sales – COGS)?

    You got it. The last step is to compare the “Middle Value” to the Cost on the books. Pick the lower of the two.

    B - 80
    A - 71, 67, 77
    R - 71, 77
    F - 72, 77

    Yes, for IFRS you just compare Book value to the NRV, which is SP-Cost to dispose (i.e. Ceiling value).

    A - 71, 67, 77
    R - 71, 77
    F - 72, 77

    I just took FAR on May 1st and this concept was HEAVILY tested. I'm saying a good 5 or 6 MCQ on it, so make sure you've got it down.

    FAR 5/1 - 83
    REG 7/7 - 79
    AUD 11/20 - 85
    BEC 8/27 - ALMOST THERE!!

    3 for 3! Study high, get high grades!!
