Modern LIFO Template for PowerPoint & Google Slides

Description

Introduce your stakeholders to the Last-In, First-Out (LIFO) inventory costing method with this versatile PowerPoint & Google Slides template. Four distinct, gradient-colored square blocks represent each LIFO component—Last, In, First, Out—adorned with folded-corner icons for people, ideas, analytics, and operations. A clean baseline timeline anchors the sequence, while subtle directional arrows highlight material flows. Master slides include both light and dark background variations; you can easily swap icons, adjust gradient palettes, or recolor shapes to match your brand identity. The balanced four-column layout guides viewers naturally from left to right, reinforcing sequential logic and ensuring clarity.

Built entirely with vector shapes and text placeholders, this template guarantees pixel-perfect scaling on any screen. Predefined animation paths allow you to reveal each block progressively for step-by-step walkthroughs. Single-click master-slide controls streamline editing—swap the default icons, modify the baseline’s color, or adjust shadows without disrupting layout. Fully compatible with PowerPoint and Google Slides, it maintains full-resolution clarity across devices and leverages built-in slide masters to ensure consistent design throughout your deck.

Whether you’re conducting financial reviews, supply-chain training, or academic lectures on cost accounting, this LIFO template transforms complex inventory flows into a concise visual narrative. Leverage it in operations meetings to outline COGS calculations, in audit reports to trace material movements, or in classroom settings to teach cost-management principles. Instantly adapt the blocks to illustrate any four-step process—project handoffs, approval workflows, risk assessments, or product-lifecycle stages—by relabeling content and icons as needed.

Who is it for

Accountants, inventory managers, supply-chain analysts, finance instructors, operations managers, CFOs, and business students can leverage this LIFO template to present cost-flow assumptions clearly and align teams around inventory-valuation discussions.

Other Uses

Adapt the four-block layout as a generic four-stage process map for project handoffs, approval workflows, risk assessment checklists, product lifecycle timelines, or operational training modules—simply change labels, colors, and icons to suit your message.
