**Table Breakdown:**
| | A | B | C | D | E | F | G |
|---|-------|----------|---------------|-------------------------|--------|--------|--------|
| | | Inventory| Cost per Unit | Market Value per Unit | Total | | |
| | | | | (Net Realizable Value) | | | |
| 3 | Item | Quantity | | | Cost | Market | LCM |

**Explanation**:
- **Inventory Quantity (Column B)**: Lists the number of units available for each item.
- **Cost per Unit (Column C)**: Represents the per-unit cost of acquiring or producing the items.
- **Market Value per Unit (Column D)**: Shows the current per-unit market value or net realizable value (NRV).
- **Cost and Market Totals (Columns E & F)**: Displays the total cost and total market value for each item by multiplying the quantity by their respective per-unit values.
- **LCM Total (Column G)**: Uses the Lower of Cost or Market methodology to determine the value at which inventory should be recorded. This is the lower value between the cost and market for each item.
