FIFO Method

Current Costs

Costs Added                  $ 427,000

Add Beginning Work in Process Inventory  $36,000

Total Current Cost                                      $ 463,000

Cost Transferred Out                   $ 428,000

Add Ending Work in Process Inventory  $35,000

Total Current Cost                                      $ 463,000

FIFO assigns the current period costs to the inventories. Current period costs are obtained by adding the costs transferred out and ending inventories costs  or beginning costs and costs added.
