My goodness, now I finally understand what LIFO Liquidation is. I was so confused about how this concept works after hours of reading the textbook and watching videos. Your explanation was perfect for me to understand this. Thank you.
Hi there, thank you for such a great tutorial video, it helps me a lot! But I'm still a little bit confused with the concept of "pooling LIFO approach". I understand it's designed to help solve the liquidation but I'm not clear with how it works in practice. Let's say the company has ABCD 4 product lines, and then it combines A&B into a pool in order to alleviate the LIFO liquidation of A. But when we prepare a P/L statement for product A only, it still faces liquidation problem. And if we prepare a P/L for A&B together, it may means nothing from the business point of view(for example A is apple pie and B is ketchup). And after all, at the end of the year when we report the P/L for the whole company wise, no matter there's pooling of inventory or not, all of the inventory will be included in the final statements, then what's the meaning of this pooling concept? I've thought about it for a long time but really can not figure it out by myself. Could you pls help me out here? Thanks!
I am really dumb so I am trying to dumb this down to my own understanding level. Is this a correct description of what is going on here: we are adjusting old layers of costs from prior years that have not been dug into/ recognized thus still remain on as an asset for inflation? we are adding the cost of inflation to old layers because they are not the true cost in the past. the reason they have increased may not have been due to a change in economy (supply or demand may have been equal for the inventory) rather just due to inflation? Thanks
who would have thought that horse manure would be an appreciating asset! thanks for the video. would hate to be the people eating into the inventory when it's horse manure though... 😂

the "that's a little abstract so let's get into an example...let's say you sell HORSE MANURE" bit got me good.
Thanks for this video. There was a goofy problem in my book with absolutely NO explanation, and this cleared it up. I really appreciate it.
Great. I'm glad you found this video useful!
Thank you! How I wish you would be my professor.......
