1.     
1   100 @ $48
+ 50 @ 46 =$7,100
2.   100 @ $42 + 50 @ 44 = $6,700

$’000s  Ceiling $255- $10 = $245, Floor $255 –$10 –
$30 = $215
                  Replacement $220 is middle value therefore market value
                  Loss is $240 - $220 = $20

Bonus
A. Under FIFO income would have been higher by $378,00 - $354,000 = $24,000
 
B.         Cash Saved = Tax saved = $24,000 * 30%
= $7,200
