(Record the cumulative effect of pretax income due to change from LIFO to average cost) |
Table (1)
Description:
- Inventory is an asset account. Since the cumulative difference has increased due to change from LIFO to average cost, inventory has increased, the asset account increased, and an increase in asset is debited.
- Deferred Tax Liability is a liability account. The obligation to pay taxes has increased on saved income taxes, due to increase in cumulative difference. The liability increased and an increase in liability is credited.
- Retained Earnings is an equity account. Since earnings increased due to increase in pretax income due to increase in cumulative difference out of the change from LIFO to average cost, and an increase in equity is credited.
Working Notes:
Compute the deferred tax liability amount.
Compute retained earnings amount.

EBK INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING: REPORTING
- Koopman Company began operations on January 1, 2018, and uses they FIFO inventory method for financial reporting and the average cost inventory method for income taxes. At the beginning of 2020, Koopman decided to switch to the average cost inventory method for financial reporting. It had previously reported the following financial statement information for 2019: An analysis of the accounting records discloses the following cost of goods sold under the FIFO and average cost inventory methods: There are no indirect effects of the change in inventory method. Revenues for 2020 total 130,000; operating expenses for 2020 total 30,000. Koopman is subject to a 21% income tax rate in all years; it pays the income taxes payable of a current year in the first quarter of the next year. Koopman had 10,000 shares of common stock outstanding during all years; it paid dividends of 1 per share in 2020.

Fava reported revenues of 300,000 and 270,000 in 2019 and 2018, respectively. Fava reported expenses (excluding income tax expense) of 125,000 and 120,000 in 2019 and 2018, which included cost of goods sold of 55,000 and 45,000, respectively.

It made the change for both financial statement and income tax reporting purposes. Grover uses the multiple-pools approach under which it groups substantially identical raw materials into LIFO inventory pools. It uses weighted average costs in valuing annual incremental layers. The composition of the December 31, 2018, inventory for the Class F inventory pool is as follows: Inventory transactions for the Class F inventory pool during 2019 were as follows: On March 2, 2019, 4,800 units were purchased at a unit cost of 13.50 for 64,800. On September 1, 2019, 7,200 units were purchased at a unit cost of 14.00 for 100,800. A total of 15,000 units were used for production during 2019.

REQUIRED Using the information provided, compute the cost of goods sold for 20-1 and 20-2 comparing the LIFO and FIFO methods.arrow_forwardIn 2020, Frost Company, which began operations in 2018, decided to change from LIFO to FIFO because management believed that FIFO belter represented the flow of their inventory.
