Severe crunches on cash commonly accompany quick corporate growth. There
may be large net income and working capital provided by operations, but heavy
demands for cash to expand receivables, inventories, and plant assets diminish
the cash on hand despite profitable operations. Hence, most “growth” companies
pay skimpy or no dividends.

question of what is income and what is capital. Does the $6.5 million represent a
return of capital or a payment of both capital and income?

This problem explores the effects of LIFO layers.
There would be no effect on gross margin, income taxes, or net income under
FIFO. The balance sheet would show a higher inventory by $900. A detailed income
statement would show both purchases and ending inventory as higher by $900, so the net

To see this another way, compare the ending inventories:

Second layer is 90 – 30 = 60 units higher @ $10 600

1. Inventory would have decreased by $.8 billion, from 10.6 billion to $9.8 billion,
under LIFO compared to $.3 billion, from 10.6 billion to 10.3 billion, under
FIFO. Therefore, cost of merchandise sold would have been $.5 billion higher,
and operating income would have been $.5 billion lower under LIFO.
3. Prices were rising during fiscal 2012. The most recent prices must be higher
than the beginning prices because the ending inventory under FIFO (which
