Travis Inc. has just completed its financial statements for the reporting year ended December 31 of Year 5. Pretax income is $160,000. The accounts have not been closed for December 31 of Year 5. Further consideration and review of the records revealed the following items related to the Year 5 statements. 1. On January 1 of Year 1, a machine was acquired that cost $10,000. The estimated useful life was 10 years, and the residual value was $2,000. At the time of acquisition, the full cost of the machine was incorrectly debited to the land account. The company uses straight-line depreciation. 2. On January 1 of Year 3, a long-term investment of $18,000 was made by purchasing a $20,000, 8% bond of FDC Corporation. The investment account was debited for $18,000. Each year, starting on December 31 of Year 3, the company has recognized and reported investment revenue on these bonds of $1,600. The bonds mature in 10 years from the date of purchase. Assume that any amortization would follow the straight-line method and that Travis intends to hold the bonds to maturity. The Year 4 ending inventory was overstated by $7,000 (periodic inventory system). An $11,000 credit purchase of merchandise occurred on December 18 of Year 4. Because the merchandise was held on December 31 of Year 4, it was included in the Year 4 ending inventory. The purchase was re- corded on Janu 18 of Year 5, when the invoice was paid (periodic tor ystem) 3. 4. Required a. Prepare correcting entries that should be made on December 31 of Year 5 for each of the four errors identi- fied. Ignore income tax effects. b. Compute the correct pretax income for Year 5.
