Chapter 8: Q.8-10BE (page 423)

Bienvenu Enterprises reported cost of goods sold for 2017 of \(1,400,000 and retained earnings of \)5,200,000 at December 31, 2017. Bienvenu later discovered that its ending inventories at December 31, 2016 and 2017, were overstated by\(110,000 and \)35,000, respectively. Determine the corrected amounts for 2017 cost of goods sold and December 31, 2017,retained earnings.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Corrected COGS and retained earnings are$1,325,000 and $5,275,000, respectively.

Step by step solution

01

Correct amount of cost of goods sold for 2017

As the ending inventory for 2016 is overstated by $110,000, the opening inventory for 2017 would have the same effect.

The ending inventory for 2017 is overstated by $35,000.

Overstatedamountofcostofgoodssold=overstatedopeninginventory-overstatedclosinginventory=$110,000-$35,000=75,000

correctamountofcostofgoodssold=currentCOGS-overstatedamount=$1,400,000-$75,000=1,325,000

02

Correct amount of retained earnings for 2017

As the COGS has been overstated, there would be an opposite effect on the retained earnings. Thus the retained earnings have been underestimated.

Correctamountofretainedearnings=currentretainedearnings+overstatedCOGS=$5,200,000+$75,000=5,275,000

Instructions

(a) Assuming that perpetual inventories are not maintained and that a physical count at the end of the month shows 560units on hand, what is the cost of the ending inventory using (1) FIFO and (2) LIFO?

(b) Assuming that perpetual records are maintained and they tie into the general ledger, calculate the ending inventory using (1) FIFO and (2) LIFO.

FIFO, average-cost, and LIFO methods are often used instead of specific identification for inventory valuation purposes. Compare these methods with the specific identification method, discussing the theoretical propriety of each method in the determination of income and asset valuation.

Case 1: T J International

T J International was founded in 1969 as Trus Joist International. The firm, a manufacturer of specialty building products, has its headquarters in Boise, Idaho. The company, through its partnership in the Trus Joist MacMillan joint venture, develops and manufactures engineered lumber. This product is a high-quality substitute for structural lumber and uses lower-grade wood and materials formerly considered waste. The company also is majority owner of the Outlook Window Partnership, which is a consortium of three wood and vinyl window manufacturers.

Following is T J International鈥檚 adapted income statement and information concerning inventories from its annual report.

T J International

Sales \(618,876,000

Cost of goods sold 475,476,000

Gross profit 143,400,000

Selling and administrative expenses 102,112,000

Income from operations 41,288,000

Other expense 24,712,000

Income before income tax 16,576,000

Income taxes 7,728,000

Net income \) 8,848,000

Inventories.Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market and include material, labor, and production overhead costs. Inventories consisted of the following:

Current Year Prior Year

Finished goods \(27,512,000 \)23,830,000

Raw materials and

work-in-progress 34,363,00033,244,000

61,875,000 57,074,000

Reduction to LIFO cost (5,263,000) (3,993,000)

\(56,612,000 \)53,081,000

The last-in, first-out (LIFO) method is used for determining the cost of lumber, veneer, Microllamlumber, TJI joists, and open web joists. Approximately 35 percent of total inventories at the end of the current year were valued using the LIFO method. The first-in, first-out (FIFO) method is used to determine the cost of all other inventories.

Instructions

(a) How much would income before taxes have been if FIFO costing had been used to value all inventories?

(b) If the income tax rate is 46.6%, what would income tax have been if FIFO costing had been used to value all inventories ? In your opinion, is this difference in net income between the two methods material? Explain.

(c) Does the use of a different costing system for different types of inventory mean that there is a different physical flow of goods among the different types of inventory? Explain.

Question:Data for Amsterdam Company are presented in BE8-4. Compute the April 30 inventory and the April cost of goods sold using the LIFO method.
