Cevap
1. Valuation at lower of cost and NRV matches Application of the prudence concept; 2. Deduction from cost of goods available for sale matches Adjustment required to calculate Cost of Goods Sold; 3. Inclusion under Current Assets matches Presentation of unsold stock as a short-term resource; 4. Calculation of NRV matches Estimated selling price minus completion and selling expenses.
Each inventory rule directly aligns with financial accounting principles: lower of cost or NRV embodies prudence; deducting closing stock isolates cost of goods sold; Balance Sheet inclusion reflects working capital assets; and NRV represents expected net proceeds after completion and selling costs.
