FIFO

Method of stock valuation that assumes that stock is used in the same order as that in which it is purchased, thus first stock in, first stock out.

The alternative valuation is LIFO (last in, first out). The LIFO method of valuation for closing stock is not permitted by the UK Inland Revenue.
