    Value of closing inventory = $230,000

    Explanation:

    Closing inventory as assessed = $258,000 based on FIFO

    Replacement cost of this closing inventory = $230,000

    Selling Price of this inventory = $275,000

    For which disposal cost = $14,000

    Net sales revenue from this inventory = $275,000 - $14,000 = $261,000

    Less: Regular operating margin = $10,000

    Value as per sales = $261,000 - $10,000 = $251,000

    Closing inventory as per IFRS is to be valued at cost or Net Realizable Value, or Replacement Value whichever is less:

    Here, least value = $230,000 which is replacement value.

    Final Answer

    Value of closing inventory = $230,000
