The company uses the periodic method.Compute the amount of phantom profit that would result if the company used FIFO rather than LIFO.

Respuesta :

Answer:

$740

Explanation:

The computation of phantom profit is shown below:-

According to FIFO,

Closing Stock = (390 × $12) + ( 40 × $11)

= $4,680 + $440

= $5120

According to LIFO

Closing Stock = (350 × $10) + (80 × $11)

= $3,500 + $880

= $4,380

Amount of Phantom Profit

= $5120 - $4,380

= $740

Therefore for computing the phantom profit we simply deduct LIFO from FIFO.
