Solution:
(45) Option(B) is correct.
when we evaluate the inventory we take cost or market value whichever is lower. But in case where there is a decline in the value of inventory from its original cost and when market value exceeds net realisable value, we will always consider NET REALIZABLE VALUE.
(46) Option(B) is correct.
Under the FIFO method, ending inventory is the same whether a perpetual or periodic system is used but under the LIFO method ending inventory is made up of the first purchase.
(47) Option(A) is correct.
when the accountant fail to record a purchase on account even though the goods are properly included in the physical inventory, we will observe that the value of the liabilities is understated and at the same time the value of the owner's equity is overstated.
