Cost price or market price, whichever is less.<\/p>\n<p>The closing stock is valued at the lower of cost price or market value. This is because the company wants to show the lowest possible value for its inventory on its balance sheet. If the market value of the stock is lower than its cost price, then the company will show a loss on its income statement. However, if the market value of the stock is higher than its cost price, then the company will show a gain on its income statement.<\/p>\n<p>The cost price of the stock is the price that the company paid for it. The market value of the stock is the price that it could be sold for in the open market. The lower of cost price or market value is used to value the closing stock because it is the most conservative approach.
