FIFO (first in first out) is a method of account for inventory. With FIFO, if inventory costs are increasing your cost of goods sold will be lower than under the LIFO (last in first out) method. If inventory costs are increasing, FIFO will result in higher net income (lower COGS) than LIFO. If inventory costs are decreasing, FIFO will result in lower net income (higher COGS) than LIFO.

Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) represents the purchase price of inventory. Companies usually use one of three methods to determine this cost. These are FIFO, LIFO, and average cost.

what is the difference beyween lifo and fifo
Assuming we are talking about a business, one way is to reduce operating expenses in conjunction with changing the accounting method for cost of goods sold (COGS). Many companies use the FIFO method for calculating COGS. The FIFO method uses the highest costs for the goods and higher COGS leads to lower net income. Switching to the LIFO inventory method reduces COGS and increases net income.

Hi - in periods of rising prices, the FIFO (fist in, first out) will give the highest ending inventory. The other two options (LIFO last in first out) will give the lowest ending inventory and the average method will give between the two. Hope this helps!
