The lower cost or market approach is (C) required under GAAP for companies that use LIFO or retail inventory.
<h3>
What is market approach?</h3>
- The market approach is a method of evaluating an asset's worth based on the selling price of comparable assets.
- Along with the cost technique and discounted cash-flow analysis, it is one of three main valuation methodologies (DCF).
- Companies that use LIFO or retail inventory are obligated by GAAP to use the lower cost or market method.
- A realtor, for example, can gather information on comparable real estate sales in close vicinity to a client's property and modify those values to account for differences in land area and building square footage to arrive at a market-based valuation for the targeted property.
Therefore, the lower cost or market approach is (C) required under GAAP for companies that use LIFO or retail inventory.
