- Definition of inventory according to IAS 2 so that you can correctly identify which assets should be included in inventory valuation
- Two key methods for valuing inventory under IAS 2: at cost and net realisable value, and how to determine the correct one to use in any given situation
- First-In, First-Out (FIFO) method for calculating the cost of goods sold – the only accepted method under IAS 2
- Last-in, First-Out (LIFO) method for calculating the cost of goods sold which can be used to lower the corporate tax liability in countries that haven’t adopted IFRS
- Average-Cost (AVCO) method for calculating the cost of goods sold – a cheap and simple method if there is a large volume of indistinguishable products to value and the organisation isn’t subject to IFRS
- Costs that need to be included in the inventory valuation and those that should be treated as expenses in order to calculate the full cost of inventory accurately
- Disclosures that are required in the financial statements to comply with IAS 2
The course also offers a range of practice questions that you can use to consolidate your learning and test your knowledge. You should come away from this course feeling confident that you can correctly account for an organisation’s inventory, in-line with IAS 2.
