Solution

The inventory costing formula that calculates the value of closing inventory by assuming that the inventory most recently purchased is still in stock is the First-In-First-Out (FIFO) method. Under this method, the oldest inventory is assumed to be sold first, and the most recently purchased inventory is assumed to be still in stock.
