In a period of steadily rising prices (meaning the cost to purchase inventory is increasing over time), what would be the implications of choosing FIFO vs. LIFO? Which method would show a higher net income, and which would show a lower net income? Which method does a better job of matching expenses and revenues? Which method reflects the most recent costs of inventory on the balance sheet? What implications might this have that would be relevant for users of the financial statements to know?

Mannisto Inc. uses the FIFO inventory cost flow assumption. In a year of rising costs and prices, the firm reported net income of $217,775 and average assets of $1,463,010. If Mannisto had used the LIFO cost flow assumption in the same year, its cost of goods sold would have been $39,290 more than under FIFO, and its average assets would have been $42,760 less than under FIFO. Required: a. Calculate the firm's ROI under each cost flow assumption (FIFO and...
