The 2023 audit reveled the following facts:

  • On January 5, 2022, Spiceland Corporation had charged a 5-years insurance premium to expense. The premium totaled P31,000.

 

  • The amount of loss due to bad debts had steadily decreased over the last 2 years. Spiceland Corporation has decided to reduce the amount of bad debt expense from 2% to 1.5% of sales, beginning with 2023. (a charge of 2% has already been made for 2023.)

 

  • Spiceland Corporation uses the periodic inventory system. The following are the inventory errors for the last 2 years:

2022 –  ending inventory overstated by P75,500.

2023 – ending inventory overstated by P99,000.

 

  • An equipment costing P150,000 was acquired on January 3, 2022. The purchase was recorded by a charged to operating expense. The equipment has a useful life of 10 years and a residual value of P25,000. Spiceland Corporation uses the straight line method in depreciating its assets.

 

  • Assume that the books for 2023 have not yet been closed. Ignore tax implications.
