6 price-level adjusted historical cost
1. Historical cost -
Historical cost is the original cost of an asset at which asset
has been acquired by the entity. It is the purchase cost of an
asset.
This concept is clarified by cost principle, which states that you
should only record an asset, liability, or equity should be
recorded at its original acquisition cost. Traditionally most of
the transactions are stated at their historical cost.
A historical cost can be easily proven by accessing the source
purchase or trade documents. However, historical cost has the
disadvantage that it does not necessarily represents the actual
fair value of an asset, which is likely to diverge from its
purchase cost over time. For example, the historical cost of a
building purchased 10 y ears ago was $1million, but its current
market value is five times i.e. $5 Million.
2. Mark to market -
Mark to market is a practice that involves adjusting the value of
an asset to reflect its current market value or fair value.
It provides more accurate measurement or valuation of assets or
investments of a company
3. Net realizable value -
Net realizable value is estimated sale price of goods, minus
cost associated with sale or disposal.
Net realizable value = Sale Price - Cost of Sale
It is a valuation method. It is commonly used in valuing
inventory.
Net realizable value (NRV) is a conservative method for valuing the
assets as it estimates the net amount that the seller would get net
of costs if the asset is sold.
4. Replacement Cost -
Replacement cost is a cost that is required to replace any existing asset with any other asset having a similar characterstics
It refers to an amount that an entity has to pay to replace an asset at a current time , according to its current worth.
Example - . If a company bought a machine for $ 500 two years ago, and machine value today, less depreciation, is $100 dollars, then the book value of the asset is $100. However, the cost for replacing that machine at current market prices may be $1,500.
5. Future Profit -
Future Profit is profit that an entity expects to earn in coming periods.
If any entity is establishing a New business and to measure its profitability in future they use the method by discounting present value of future profits expected by the business in a given period of time.
6. Price-level adjusted historical cost
Price - level adjusted historical cost adjusts value of assets and liabilities with respect to the changes in purchasing power of the currency rather than changes in value of the asset. This method is mostly used in the countries in which there is a high rate of inflation and it is difficult to value the asset as they does not use historical cost method for valuation of asset.

How does the retail inventory method establish the lower-of-cost-or-market valuation for ending inventory? 1. The procedure is applied on a cost basis at the unit level. 2. By excluding net markups from the cost-to-retail ratio. 3. By excluding beginning inventory from the cost-to-retail ratio. 4. By excluding net markdowns from the cost-to-retail ratio. The original cost of an inventory item is above the replacement cost and below the net realizable value. The net realizable value less the normal profit margin...
