c. Because of severe hail storms, many people need to repaint now- Demand for paint will increase shifting the demand curve to the right increasing the price and quantity of paints.

d. The hail storms damaged several factories that make paint, forcing them to close down for several months- Supply of paint will decrease as factories close down. This will shift the supply curve to the left increasing the price of pain and decreasing the quantity of paint.

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

A. True.

Explanation:

Companies can and often do use different costing methods for financial reporting and tax reporting. The only exception is when LIFO is used for tax reporting; in this case the IRS requires that it also be used in financial statements.

LIFO assigns the highest amount to cost of goods sold - yielding the lowest gross profits and net income , which also yields a temporary tax advantage by postponing payment of some income tax.
