– General rule: all costs associated with purchase or manufacture, including shipping to facility.

E7-6a. Assume that counting errors caused the

ending inventory (EI) in 2007 to be understated by $50 and the ending inventory in 2008 to be overstated by $50.

Compute the impact of these errors on cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2007 and on the inventory balance as of December 31, 2007.

of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2008 and on the inventory balance as of December 31, 2008.

c. What is the impact of these errors on cost of goods sold over the two-year period ended December 31, 2008?

a. Error in Ending Inventory in 2007: The $50 understated error in the Ending inventory means that the Ending Inventory should have been $268 + $50 = $318. This would change the Cost of goods sold to $1,174 - $318 = $856 which would then increase the Gross profit to $421 ($1,277 - $856).

b. Error in Ending Inventory in 2008: =The 2007 error in the Ending Inventory changes the Beginning Inventory in 2008 and the Goods Available for sale to $318 + $857 = $1,175. To calculate the Cost of Goods Sold the Ending Inventory for 2008 is deducted from the revised Goods Available for Sale: $1,175 – ($239 - $50) = $986. The gross profit would then be $1,262 - $986 = $276.

3. Cost Flow AssumptionsGiven: BI + P (net) = EI + COGSHow to assign costs of inflows [BI +

P(net)] to EI and COGS?Methods:Specific identificationAverage for both COGS and EIFIFO - (first-in, first-out) for COGS

– and LISH (last-in, still here) for EILIFO - (last-in, first-out) for COGS

– and FISH (first-in, still here) for EI

International Perspective – Cost Flow Assumptions

Under IFRS the LIFO method is prohibited. This poses an important potential impediment to

the adoption of IFRS in the US. Most LIFO users in the US have chosen LIFO because it results in an income tax savings.

DuPont, for example, has saved over $150 million in income taxes because it uses LIFO.

A shift to IFRS could impose a huge and immediate tax burden on LIFO users in the US.

Choosing an Inventory Cost Flow Assumption: Trade-Offs

Income and Asset MeasurementEconomic Consequences

– Income Taxes and Liquidity– Bookkeeping Costs– LIFO Liquidation and Inventory Purchasing

Practices– Debt and Compensation Practices– The Capital Market

Ending Inventory: Applying the Lower-of-Cost-or-Market Rule

Applying the lower-of-cost-or-market rule to ending inventory is accomplished by comparing the cost allocated to ending inventory with the market value of the inventory. If the market value exceeds the cost, no adjustment is made and the inventory remains at cost. If the market value is less than the cost, the inventories are written down to market value with an adjusting journal entry.

The Lower-of-Cost-or-Market Rule and Hidden Reserves

Based on conservatism, ending inventory is valued at cost or market value, whichever is lower.

Problem: can create hidden reserves– Recognizes price decreases immediately– Defers price increase recognition until sold

US GAAP and IFRS use different market values when applying the lower-of-cost-or-market rule. Under US GAAP the market value is usually the replacement cost. Under IFRS it is normally the realizable value.

International Perspective: Japanese Business and Inventory Accounting Just-in-time (JIT) inventory systems, which

reduce the costs of carrying large amounts of inventory without jeopardizing customer service, have long been a characteristic of this Japanese system and have given the Japanese a definite advantage when competing against U.S. industry.

Japan has adopted international reporting standards (IFRS), which does not allow the use of LIFO.
