Rachel Warren, an auditor with Laplante CPAs, is performing a review of Skysong, Inc.’s inventory account. Skysong, did not have a good year, and top management is under pressure to boost reported income. According to its records, the inventory balance at year-end was $748,000. However, the following information was not considered when determining that amount.
Prepare a schedule to determine the correct inventory amount. (If an amount reduces the account balance then enter with a negative sign preceding the number , e.g. -15,000, or parenthesis e.g. (15,000). Enter 0 if there is no effect.)

The company received an order on December 29 that was boxed and sitting on the loading dock awaiting pick-up on December 31. The shipper picked up the goods on January 1 and delivered them on January 6. The shipping terms were FOB shipping point. The goods had a selling price of $47,000 and a cost of $34,500. The goods were not included in the count because they were sitting on the dock.

On December 29, Skysong, shipped goods with a selling price of $84,000 and a cost of $55,000 to Reza Sales Corporation FOB shipping point. The goods arrived on January 3. Reza had only ordered goods with a selling price of $10,500 and a cost of $8,100. However, a sales manager at Skysong, had authorized the shipment and said that if Reza wanted to ship the goods back next week, it could.

Included in the count was $45,000 of goods that were parts for a machine that the company no longer made. Given the high-tech nature of Skysong,’s products, it was unlikely that these obsolete parts had any other use. However, management would prefer to keep them on the books at cost, “since that is what we paid for them, after all.”

- How much is the adjusted balance of inventory?arrow_forwardThe following is an independent error made by a company that uses the periodic inventory system: Equipment with a book value of $70,000 and a fair value of $100,000 was sold at the beginning of the year. A 2-year, non-interest-bearing note for $129,960 was received and recorded at its face value, and a gain of $59,960 was recognized. No interest revenue was recorded and 14% is a fair rate of interest. What is the journal entry needed to correct the sale of equipment? Ignore income taxesWhat is the journal entry adjustment needed to correct interest related to the note?arrow_forwardShortly after the end of the fiscal year, the company performs a physical count of the inventory. When Margie compares the physical count to the balance in the inventory account, she finds a significant amount of inventory shrinkage. The amount is so large that it will result in a significant drop in earnings this period. Margie’s boss asks her not to make the adjusting entry for shrinkage this period. He assures her that they will get “caught up” on shrinkage in the next period, after the pressure is off to reach this period’s earnings goal. Margie’s boss asks her to do this as a personal favor to him. Should the inventory shrinkage be ignored? How will the income statement and balance sheet be effected if the adjustment is not made? What should Margie do in this situation? Why?arrow_forward

This helps us guide the audit process. This analysis indicates that the inventory turnover has decreased from 5 to 2.8 and the accounts receivable turnover has decreased from 12 to 8. I was wondering if you could explain this change in operations. Travis: There is little need for concern. The inventory represents computers that we were unable to sell during the holiday buying season. We are confident, however, that we will be able to sell these computers as we move into the next fiscal year. Sandra: What gives you this confidence? Travis: We will increase our advertising and provide some very attractive price concessions to move these machines. We have no choice. Newer technology is already out there, and we have to unload this inventory. Sandra: …and the receivables?
