Answer:

The grouping of the items and measurements are in the explanation

Explanation:

The question is to determine the placement of the items based on the inventory measurement list given

Inventory measurement                               Item  to be measured

1. Perpetual inventory system                  Continuously records changes in    

                                                                inventory

2. Periodic inventory system                  Continuously records changes in    

                                                                inventory

3. F.o.b. shipping point                            Legal title passes when goods are

                                                                 delivered to common carrier.

4. Gross method                                       Purchase discounts not taken are

                                                                 included in inventory cost.

5. Net method                                          Purchase discounts not taken are

                                                                 considered interest expense.

6.Cost index                                             Used to convert ending inventory at

                                                                 year-end cost to base year cost.

7. F.o.b. destination                                  Goods are transferred to another

                                                                  company but title remains with

                                                                  transferor.

8. FIFO                                                      Assumes items sold are those

                                                                 acquired first.

9. LIFO                                                      Assumes items sold are those

                                                                 acquired last.

Quite a  number of the items are self explanatory for instance, FIFO is first in first out and it deals with inventory sold based on those acquired first and the cost while LIFO is last in first out and it deals with inventory based on the cost of those that were acquired last

Also F.O.B shipping point means the seller of a product bears all risks until it gets to the destination while F.O.B destination means the risks on board shipping are already borne by the receipient.

It should also be noted that any thing that deals with the continous record of inventory is taken care of either by the perpetual inventory system or the periodic inventory system.
