Explanation:

The FIFO method is a system that facilitates the immediate exit of merchandise that first entered the warehouse. Hence the term "First In First Out". In this way, the stock is constantly renewed, and avoid keeping products in the warehouse for a long time.  

This method basically consists giving out of the inventory those products that were purchased first, so that in the inventories will be those most recently purchased products.

Weighted average method is used to make an inventory valuation, taking average values for both the merchandise in stock and costs of merchandise sold.
