FIFO, or First In, First Out, is an inventory management and accounting method where the oldest inventory items are sold or used first. This approach helps ensure that products are sold before they expire or become obsolete, thereby reducing waste. FIFO is commonly used in industries with perishable goods or items with a limited shelf life. Additionally, it can result in lower cost of goods sold during periods of rising prices, as older, cheaper inventory is recorded as sold first.
