5 The use of historical cost accounting can mislead users when prices are rising in the following ways:
(i) Depreciation is based on the original cost of non-current assets and thus understates the true value obtained by the business from the use of these assets. The result is that profit is overstated.
(ii) Inventory is often valued at cost, using FIFO or average costs. If prices are rising, sales in current terms are matched with cost of sales in historical cost terms. Profit is again overstated.
(iii) Balance sheet values of assets may become seriously below their current value.
(iv) The combined effects of the above three factors mean that return on capital employed is overstated.
(v) Year on year comparison of results is likely to be misleading as figures will show an automatic increase as prices rise, when in real terms sales and profits may have risen far less, or even have fallen.
Any four points needed for full marks.
