Word Problem 18-21 (Algo) [LU 18-1 (2)] LIFO was designed to protect cash flow in industries where prices increase rapidly. It has been used for both tax and financial statement reporting since the 1930s. The higher cost of goods sold under LIFO in these circumstances results in lower reported profit than under FIFO.

The following two statements concern depreciation: 1. Because our plant was shut down for part of the year, we will not depreciate it. Depreciating it for the full year would increase our costs and overstate the inventory. 2. I think we should have increasing depreciation expense each period because it will increase the funds recovered near the end of the assets life when maintenance costs are high and we will need to replace the asset. Also, I think tax rates will be higher toward the end of the assets life, so we will be better off to have a larger amount of depreciation expense then. Required: Prepare a short report that evaluates each of the following statements separately.
