Answer:

Option B is correct. Replacement Cost

Explanation:

According to LCM method, the inventory must be recorded at lowest of cost or Market value. The market value of the asset is replacement value and this is the cost at which the inventory must be recorded. This replacement cost is always greater than the net realizable value which is equal to the difference between the Market value and cost to sell.
