Current Attempt in Progress
Kari Downs, an auditor with Wheeler CPAs, is performing a review of Lily Company's inventory account. Lily 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
$741,000. However, the following information was not considered when determining that amount.
(a1) 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, eg.-15,000, or porenthesis eg.(15,000). Enter 0 if there is no effect.)
Ending inventory-as reported
Included in the company's count were goods with a cost of $248,000 that the company is
holding on consignment. The goods belong to Kroeger Corporation.
The physical count did not include goods purchased by Lily with a cost of $50,000 that
were shipped FOB destination on December 28 and did not arrive at Lily warehouse until
January 3.
Included in the inventory account was $20,000 of office supplies that were stored in the
warehouse and were to be used by the company's supervisors and managers during the
coming year.
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 $50,000 and a cost of $21,000. The goods were not included in the count
because they were sitting on the dock
On December 29. Lily shipped goods with a selling price of $79,000 and a cost of
$60,000 to Macchia Sales Corporation FOB shipping point. The goods arrived on January
Macchia had only ordered goods with a selling price of $14,000 and a cost of $8,000.
However, a sales manager at Lily had authorized the shipment and said that if Macchia
wanted to ship the goods backnext week, it could.
Included in the count was $38.000 of goods that were parts for a machine that the
compary no longer made. Given the high-tech nature of Lily'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".
