Step 1: Determine the Market
Market is replacement cost limited to the Ceiling and the Floor
Ceiling: Net Realizable Value (Selling price-Selling costs-costs to complete)
Floor: Net Realizable Value - Normal Profit
If the replacement cost is > than the ceiling, market is the ceiling
If the replacement cost is < than the floor, market is the floor
If the replacement cost falls between the ceiling and the floor, market is replacement cost
Step 2: Determine Cost
Step 3: Select the lower of cost or market
Example: Cost=$9.00 Replacement Cost=$20.00 Selling Price=$17.00 Profit=$7.00
Step 1 -
Ceiling: $17.00
Floor: $10.00 ($17-$7)
Since the replacement cost is > than the ceiling, the market is the ceiling=$17.00
Step 2 -
Cost $9.00
Step 3 -
Market=$17.00 Cost=$9.00
