【每日一练】CFA 一级（2015年）

Question：

In a period of rising prices, when compared with a company that uses weighted average cost for inventory, a company using FIFO will most likely report higher values for its: 
A. debt-to-equity ratio. 
B. return on sales. 
C. inventory turnover. 
 

Answer = B 
In periods of rising prices, FIFO results in a higher inventory value and a lower cost of goods sold and thus a higher net income. The higher net income increases return on sales. The higher reported net income also increases retained earnings and thus results in a lower debt-to-equity ratio, not a higher one. The combination of higher inventory and lower cost of goods sold (CGS) decreases inventory turnover (CGS/Inventory)
