The accounting objective that best relates to the LIFO (Last In, First Out) method is the matching principle, which aims to match revenues with the expenses incurred to generate them within the same period. By using LIFO, companies can align their cost of goods sold (COGS) with the more recent costs of inventory, typically resulting in lower taxable income during periods of rising prices. This approach can also provide a more accurate reflection of current market conditions and inventory valuation on the balance sheet.
