If a company switches its inventory costing method from FIFO to Weighted-Average, how should this change be reported in the financial statements according to ASC 250?

  1. As a cumulative effect adjustment to the current year's Net Income
  2. Only in the footnotes, with no changes to the numerical data on the face of the statements
  3. Retrospectively, by restating all prior period financial statements presented
  4. Prospectively, starting from the first day of the current fiscal year
