Chapter 9: Q5IFRS. (page 500)

In some instances, accounting principles require a departure from valuing inventories at cost alone. Determine the proper unit inventory price in the following cases. Cases 1 2 3 4 5 Cost \(15.90 \)16.10 \(15.90 \)15.90 $15.90 Sales price 14.80 19.20 15.20 10.40 17.80 Estimated cost to complete 1.50 1.90 1.65 .80 1.00 Estimated cost to sell .50 .70 .55 .40 .60

Short Answer

Expert verified

The cost of inventory in case 1 equals $12.80, case 2 equals $16.10, case 3 equals $13, case 4 equals $9.20, and case 5 equals $15.90.

Step by step solution

Question:Amiras Corporation began operations on January 1, 2017, with a beginning inventory of \(30,100 at cost and \)50,000 at retail. The following information relates to 2017. Retail Net purchases (\(108,500 at cost) \)150,000 Net markups 10,000 Net markdowns 5,000 Sales revenue 126,900 Instructions (a) Assume Amiras decided to adopt the conventional retail method. Compute the ending inventory to be reported in the balance sheet. (b) Assume instead that Amiras decides to adopt the dollar-value LIFO retail method. The appropriate price indexes are 100 at January 1 and 110 at December 31. Compute the ending inventory to be reported in the balance sheet. (c) On the basis of the information in part (b), compute cost of goods sold.

Corrs Company began operations in 2016 and determined its ending inventory at cost and at lower-of-LIFO cost-or-market at December 31, 2016, and December 31, 2017. This information is presented below. Cost Lower-of-Cost-or-Market 12/31/16 \(356,000 \)327,000 12/31/17 420,000 395,000 Instructions (a) Prepare the journal entries required at December 31, 2016, and December 31, 2017, assuming that the inventory is recorded at market, and a perpetual inventory system (cost-of-goods-sold method) is used. (b) Prepare journal entries required at December 31, 2016, and December 31, 2017, assuming that the inventory is recorded at market under a perpetual system (loss method is used). (c) Which of the two methods above provides the higher net income in each year?
