I'm a little confused by this question. The wording about "running the inventory close" isn't super clear to me. I'll need to think more about what that means in the context of FIFO and Standard Cost. Maybe I'll jot down some notes about the key differences between those two methods to help me figure this out.

Ah, I see what they're getting at here. FIFO and Standard Cost are the two costing methods mentioned, so the answer must be related to one of those. I'm pretty confident that FIFO requires running the inventory close, since it's tracking the flow of specific items. Standard Cost might not need that.

Hmm, this seems straightforward. I think the key is to focus on the costing methods mentioned - FIFO and Standard. The question is asking which one requires running the inventory close, so I'll need to think through the differences between those two methods.

This question seems straightforward. I think the answer is Planned orders, since the material requirement plan logic is used to determine those.
