| treakj | But only if the first purchase cost is lower than the recently purchased cost, isnt it? Otherwise the LIFO would still show a higher COGS. |
| surob | treakj: if not given, assume the price is rising. |
| ddrmax | declining pricing.... |
| ericczhang | "...during a period of declining prices" |
