lifo
The method is called First-In-First-Out (FIFO).
THERE ARE THREE METHODS OF INVENTORY COSTS FLOW. 1: LIFO=first in first out 2; LIFO= last in first out 3: AVERAGE method and your answer is LIFO
The inventory costing method that reflects the cost flow in the reverse order and will report the earliest costs in ending inventory is last in first out. This makes use of a perpetual inventory system.

last in first out
periodic inventory system
A method of inventory accounting in which the oldest remaining items are assumed to have been the first sold. In a period of rising prices, this method yields a higher ending inventory, a lower cost of goods sold, a higher gross profit (assuming constant price), and a higher taxable income. Also called FIFO.Method in calculation in which the weighted averagezzor the period is the cost of the goods available for sale divided by the number of units available for sale. When the perpetual inventory system is used, the weighted average method is called the moving average method.
Weighted average inventory valuation method is method in which inventory purchased at any price is put together to calculate one price for allocation in contrast to FIFO or LIFO.
The GAAP method for obsolete or slow moving inventory is to account for all inventory using either market value or cost method. The method which results in the lower amount is the one that is used.
FIFO method is based on the actual cost of each particular unit of inventory. In this method, inventory which is purchased first is sold out first. It ensures that old inventory is not piled up in storage and most companies use this method to evaluate their inventory.
FIFO method where the older items are sold first.
