Therefore the option a is correct
Answer:
Explanation:
1. The computation of the balance in retained earnings is shown below:
= Beginning retained earning balance + adjusted net income
where,
Beginning retained earning balance is $780,000
And, the adjusted net income is = Inventory × ( 1 - tax rate)
= $60,000 × (1 - 40%)
= $36,000
Now put these values to the above formula
So, the value would equal to
= $780,000 + $36,000
= $816,000
2. The journal entry is shown below:
Inventory A/c Dr $60,000
To Retained earning A/c $36,000
To Tax payable A/c $24,000
(Being inventory is adjusted and the remaining balance is credited to tax payable account)
