Detailed explanation-1: -FIFO valuation is a method that enables you to valuate the stocks of a material as realistically as possible. FIFO (first in, first out) stands for the assumption that the first stocks of a material to be received are the first to be consumed.
Detailed explanation-2: -What is the FIFO method? FIFO stands for first in, first out, an easy-to-understand inventory valuation method that assumes that goods purchased or produced first are sold first. In theory, this means the oldest inventory gets shipped out to customers before newer inventory.
Detailed explanation-3: -There are three methods for inventory valuation: FIFO (First In, First Out), LIFO (Last In, First Out), and WAC (Weighted Average Cost). In FIFO, you assume that the first items purchased are the first to leave the warehouse.
Detailed explanation-4: -The First-in First-out (FIFO) method of inventory valuation is based on the assumption that the sale or usage of goods follows the same order in which they are bought. In other words, under the first-in, first-out method, the earliest purchased or produced goods are sold/removed and expensed first.
