At the time, the book value and the fair value of John鈥檚 net assets were \)13,000,000. On July 1, 2018, Beyonce paid \(3,040,000 for 50,000 additional shares of John common stock, which represented a 20% investment in John.

Botticelli Inc. was organized in late 2015 to manufacture and sell hosiery. At the end of its fourth year of operation, the company has been fairly successful, as indicated by the following reported net incomes.

2015 \(140,000a 2017 \)205,000

2016 160,000b 2018 276,000

a Includes a \(10,000 increase because of change in bad debt experience rate.

bIncludes a gain of \)30,000.

The company has decided to expand operations and has applied for a sizable bank loan. The bank officer has indicated that the records should be audited and presented in comparative statements to facilitate analysis by the bank. Botticelli Inc. therefore hired the auditing firm of Check & Doublecheck Co. and has provided the following additional information.

1. In early 2016, Botticelli Inc. changed its estimate from 2% of sales to 1% on the amount of bad debt expense to be charged to operations. Bad debt expense for 2015, if a 1% rate had been used, would have been \(10,000. The company therefore restated its net income for 2015.

2. In 2018, the auditor discovered that the company had changed its method of inventory pricing from LIFO to FIFO. The effect on the income statements for the previous years is as follows.

2015 2016 2017 2018

Net income unadjusted鈥擫IFO basis \)140,000 \(160,000 \)205,000 \(276,000

Net income unadjusted鈥擣IFO basis 155,000 165,000 215,000 260,000

\) 15,000 \( 5,000 \) 10,000 \( (16,000)

3. In 2018, the auditor discovered that:

(a) The company incorrectly overstated the ending inventory (under both LIFO and FIFO) by \)14,000 in 2017.

(b) A dispute developed in 2016 with the Internal Revenue Service over the deductibility of entertainment expenses. In 2015, the company was not permitted these deductions, but a tax settlement was reached in 2018 that allowed these expenses. As a result of the court鈥檚 finding, tax expenses in 2018 were reduced by $60,000.

Instructions

(a) Indicate how each of these changes or corrections should be handled in the accounting records. (Ignore income tax considerations.)

(b) Present net income as reported in comparative income statements for the years 2015 to 2018

Tedesco Company changed depreciation methods in 2017 from double-declining-balance to straight-line. Depreciation prior to 2017 under double-declining-balance was \(90,000, whereas straight-line depreciation prior to 2017 would have been \)50,000. Tedesco鈥檚 depreciable assets had a cost of \(250,000 with a \)40,000 salvage value, and an 8-year remaining useful life at the beginning of 2017. Prepare the 2017 journal entries, if any, related to Tedesco鈥檚 depreciable assets

Peter Henning Tool Company鈥檚 December 31 year-end financial statements contained the following errors.

December 31, 2017 December 31, 2018

Ending inventory \(9,600 understated \)8,100 overstated

Depreciation expense \(2,300 understated 鈥�

An insurance premium of \)66,000 was prepaid in 2017 covering the years 2017, 2018, and 2019. The entire amount was charged to expense in 2017.

In addition, on December 31, 2018, fully depreciated machinery was sold for $15,000 cash, but the entry was not recorded until 2019.

There were no other errors during 2017 or 2018, and no corrections have been made for any of the errors. (Ignore income tax considerations.)

Instructions

(a) Compute the total effect of the errors on 2018 net income.

(b) Compute the total effect of the errors on the amount of Henning鈥檚 working capital at December 31, 2018.

(c) Compute the total effect of the errors on the balance of Henning鈥檚 retained earnings at December 31, 2018.

You have been engaged to review the financial statements of Gottschalk Corporation. In the course of your examination, you conclude that the bookkeeper hired during the current year is not doing a good job. You notice a number of irregularities as follows.

1. Year-end wages payable of \(3,400 were not recorded because the bookkeeper thought that 鈥渢hey were immaterial.鈥�

2. Accrued vacation pay for the year of \)31,100 was not recorded because the bookkeeper 鈥渘ever heard that you had to do it.鈥�

3. Insurance for a 12-month period purchased on November 1 of this year was charged to insurance expense in the amount of \(2,640 because 鈥渢he amount of the check is about the same every year.鈥� 4. Reported sales revenue for the year is \)2,120,000. This includes all sales taxes collected for the year. The sales tax rate is 6%. Because the sales tax is forwarded to the state鈥檚 Department of Revenue, the Sales Tax Expense account is debited. The bookkeeper thought that 鈥渢he sales tax is a selling expense.鈥� At the end of the current year, the balance in the Sales Tax Expense account is $103,400.

Instructions Prepare the necessary correcting entries, assuming that Gottschalk uses a calendar-year basis.

(Analysis of Various Accounting Changes and Errors) Katherine Irving, controller of Lotan Corp., is aware of a pronouncement on accounting changes. After reading the pronouncement, she is confused about what action should be taken on the following items related to Lotan Corp. for the year 2017.

1. In 2017, Lotan decided to change its policy on accounting for certain marketing costs. Previously, the company had chosen to defer and amortize all marketing costs over at least 5 years because Lotan believed that a return on these expenditures did not occur immediately. Recently, however, the time differential has considerably shortened, and Lotan is now expensing the marketing costs as incurred.

2. In 2017, the company examined its entire policy relating to the depreciation of plant equipment. Plant equipment had normally been depreciated over a 15-year period, but recent experience has indicated that the company was incorrect in its estimates and that the assets should be depreciated over a 20-year period.

3. One division of Lotan Corp., Hawthorne Co., has consistently shown an increasing net income from period to period. On closer examination of its operating statement, it is noted that bad debt expense and inventory obsolescence charges are much lower than in other divisions. In discussing this with the controller of this division, it has been learned that the controller has increased his net income each period by knowingly making low estimates related to the write-off of receivables and inventory.

4. In 2017, the company purchased new machinery that should increase production dramatically. The company has decided to depreciate this machinery on an accelerated basis, even though other machinery is depreciated on a straight-line basis.

5. All equipment sold by Lotan is subject to a 3-year warranty. It has been estimated that the expense ultimately to be incurred on these machines is 1% of sales. In 2017, because of a production breakthrough, it is now estimated that 陆 of 1% of sales is sufficient. In 2015 and 2016, warranty expense was computed as \(64,000 and \)70,000, respectively. The company now believes that these warranty costs should be reduced by 50%.

6. In 2017, the company decided to change its method of inventory pricing from average-cost to the FIFO method. The effect of this change on prior years is to increase 2015 income by \(65,000 and increase 2016 income by \)20,000.

Instructions Katherine Irving has come to you, as her CPA, for advice about the situations above. Prepare a report, indicating the appropriate accounting treatment that should be given for each of these situations.
