PLEASE EXPLAIN As 2 valuation of inventories

Quick Summary
This discussion explains the First-In, First-Out (FIFO) method for valuing inventory, using a petrol distributor as an example. It details how to calculate the closing inventory value, cost of goods sold, and profit or loss for a given period, considering opening stock, purchases, and sales figures.

Cogs= (purchases as per the purchase date + opening inventory  - closing stock) 

Profit or loss = sales - cogs - general overheads

Post a screenshot because I'm confused and my mobile is allowing me to see the whole screen 

Sure sir 👍 how to post here??

Sorry if there is no attach link. But i have modified the recent formula and i hope you can make it out. 

Check out with others if there is a replacement cost issue here while calculating nrv. If not things are very easy.

You have posted purchase details as 10000/- ltrs on 30/6/21.

Ok , It's Total 20000 ltrs ( 10000 opening balances and purchase 10000 ltr , and as per FIFO method ( First in First out) , we have sold 7000 ltr from Opening balance 10000 ltr .
