During 2021, a construction company that began operations in 2019 changed from the completed-contract method to the percentage-of-completion method for accounting purposes but not for tax purposes. Gross profit figures under both methods for the past three years appear below:
Completed-Contract | Percentage-of-Completion | |||||||
2019 | $ 385000 | $ 790000 | ||||||
2020 | 525000 | 850000 | ||||||
2021 | 600000 | 950000 | ||||||
$1510000 | $2590000 |
Assuming an income tax rate of 30% for all years and that comparative statements are not issued, the effect of this accounting change on prior periods should be reported by a increase of
$511000 on the 2021 income statement.
$755000 on the 2021 retained earnings statement.
$511000 on the 2021 retained earnings statement.
