(4) There will be $4,452 additional cash available under LIFO because
income taxes are $66,892 under LIFO and $71,344 under FIFO.
(5) The illusionary gross profit is $15,900 ($378,800 – $362,900) under
FIFO. Under LIFO, National Inc. has recovered the current
replacement cost of the units ($387,100), whereas under FIFO, it
has only recovered the earlier costs ($371,200). This means that
under FIFO, the company must reinvest $15,900 of the gross profit
to replace the units used.
