Chapter 22, Problem 6P
Kraft Manufacturing Company manufactures two products: Mult and Tran. At December 31, 2019, Kraft used the FIFO inventory method. Effective January 1, 2020, Kraft changed to the LIFO inventory method. The cumulative effect of this change is not determinable, and, as a result, the ending inventory of 2019, for which the FIFO method was used, is also the beginning inventory for 2020 for the LIFO method. Any layers added during 2020 should be costed by reference to the first acquisitions of 2020, and any layers liquidated during 2020 should be considered a permanent liquidation.
The following information was available from Kraft’s inventory records for the two most recent years:
Required:
Compute the effect on income before income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2020, resulting from the change from the FIFO to the LIFO inventory method.

Will Company began operations late in 2019 and adopted the conventional retail inventory method. Because there was no beginning inventory for 2019 and no markdowns during 2019, the ending inventory for 2019 was $52,000 under both the conventional retail method and the LIFO retail method. At the end of 2020, management wants to compare the results of applying the conventional and LIFO retail methods. There was no change in the price level during 2020. The following data are available for computations: Cost Retail Inventory, January 1, 2020 $52,000 $70,000 Sales 240,000 Net markups 2,000 Net markdowns 8,600 Purchases 191,000 268,000 Freight-in 12,500 Estimated theft (abnormal) 2,000
Compute the cost of the 2020 ending inventory under both (a) the conventional retail method and (b) the LIFO retail method.
Heinz Company began operations on January 1, 2019, and uses the FIFO method in costing its raw material inventory. Management is contemplating a change to the LIFO method and is interested in determining what effect such a change will have on net income. Accordingly, the following information has been developed:Final Inventory 2019 2020FIFO ₱640,000 ₱ 712,000LIFO 560,000 636,000Net Income (computed under the FIFO method) 980,000 1,030,000Based on the above information, a change to the LIFO method in 2020 would result in net income for 2020 ofa. ₱1,070,000 c. ₱954,000b. ₱1,030,000 d. ₱950,000
In 2021, the Barton and Barton Company changed its method of valuing inventory from the FIFO method to the average cost method. At December 31, 2020, B & B’s inventories were $32 million (FIFO). B & B’s records indicated that the inventories would have totaled $23.8 million at December 31, 2020, if determined on an average cost basis. Ignoring income taxes, what journal entry will B & B use to record the adjustment in 2021? Briefly describe other steps B & B should take to report the change.
