The Mason family operates a building supply store and counts the physical inventory once a year. The value assigned to the year-end inventory was $35 000. They failed to count the inventory on four shelves in the warehouse. As a result, the year-end financial statements were prepared with an incorrect valuation for ending inventory. A couple of weeks after the statements were prepared, the omission was discovered and reported to the company's accountant. The value of the inventory missed was $7 500. Required: 1. Create a mini-income statement including the incorrect ending inventory on the spreadsheet provided. Net sales for the period were $325 000; beginning inventory was $65 000; purchases were $24 000; and operating expenses were $161 000. 2. Create a revised income statement with the correct ending inventory figure. 3. Evaluate the effect of the omission on each of the following: a. cost of goods sold b. gross profit c. net income d. the balance sheet 4.
