Hello - I use the value the inventory was purchased at. If you need to, then you can devalue the inventory by stating a write down on obsolete goods, or alternatively, product that you will have to take a discount on. Technically, you have a few options - LIFO (last in, first out), FIFO most common - First in, first out, and average - average is not GAAP in Canadian accounting, but is workable in the states. Hope this helps you!
