A company like Golf USA that sells golf-related inventory typically will have inventory items such as golf clothing and golf equipment. As technology advances the design and performance of the next generation of drivers, the older models become less marketable and therefore decline in value. Suppose that in the current year, Ping (a manufacturer of golf clubs) introduces the MegaDriver II, the new and improved version of the MegaDriver. Below are year-end amounts related to Golf USA's inventory. Inventory Shirts Quantity Unit Cost Unit NRV 42 $65 $77 MegaDriver 22 430 380 MegaDriver II 37 450 490 3. Record any necessary adjusting entry to inventory. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No Journal Entry Required" in the first account field.)

You are a newly hired accountant for Sushi Beeber, Inc., a retail company specializing in apparel for small pets. The company would like to expand its apparel line to include sweaters for cats.

Peterson Corporation is considering implementing a JIT production system. The new system would reduce current average inventory levels of $2,000,000 by 75%, but it would require a much greater dependency on the company’s core suppliers for on-time deliveries and high-quality inputs. The company’s operations manager, John Leung, is opposed to the idea of a new JIT system. He is concerned that the new system (a) will be too costly to manage; (b) will result in too many stock outs; and (c) will lead to the layoff of his employees, several of whom are currently managing inventory. He believes that these layoffs will affect the morale of his entire production department. The management accountant, Susan Chow, is in favour of the new system, due to the likely result in cost savings. John wants Susan to revise her cost saving estimation because he is concerned that top management will give more weight to financial factors and not give due consideration to nonfinancial factors such as employee…
