Reporting inventory at the LCM is a departure from the accounting principle of

Historical cost
Conservatism
Consistency
Full disclosure

Which statement is NOT valid in relation to the LCM rule for inventories?
Statement 1: Inventories are usually written down to net realizable value on an item-by-

Statement 2 only
Statement 1 only
Both statements

financial statements?

Prime (Direct) costs

The use of purchase discounts account implies that the recorded cost of a purchased
inventory item is its

Invoice price
Invoice price plus any purchase discount lost
Invoice price less the purchase discount taken
Invoice price less the purchase discount allowable whether taken or not

Theoretically, cash discounts permitted on purchased raw materials should be

Deducted from inventory, whether taken or not


Added to other income, whether taken or not
Added to other income, only if taken
Deducted from inventory, only if taken

When a portion of inventories has been pledged as security on a loan

The fact should be disclosed but the amount of current assets should not be affected

balance sheet date for future delivery at firm prices
