Answer:
$535,000
Explanation:
The computation of the Latham's basis in the building is shown below:
= The material cost + direct labor cost + worker pension cost + architectural fees + depreciation on equipment + interest paid during the year
= $300,000 + $150,000 + $5,000 + $15,000 + $25,000 + $40,000
= $535,000
It includes both direct and indirect cost
Since we have to compute for the building so we do not considered the purchase value of land and the loan amount
The standardized deficit <span>is the difference between annual government expenditures and revenues.

Answer:
In Barton and Barton Company's general journal, entry required include:
Debit Retained Earnings Account with $8.2 million
Credit Opening Inventory with $8.2 million
Being reversal of overstated inventory due to change from FIFO to Average cost method.
Explanation:
The debit entry to the Retained Earnings Account will reduce the balance by $8.2 million. The effect of overstating the closing inventory is overstatement of the net income because the cost of sales was understated as a result of the inventory overstatement.
The credit entry to the Opening Inventory reduces the balance to the new balance based on the average cost method of $23.8 million.
The FIFO cost method or First-In, First-Out method is an inventory costing method that assumes that goods that were bought first were the ones to be sold first. The inventory cost is therefore valued with the most recent quantity and cost price.
On the other hand, the Average Cost Method, also called the Weighted Average Cost Method, calculates the inventory cost by adding all the period's inventory and dividing it by the quantity for the period. This gives an average cost which is in turn used to multiply the quantity of inventory at the end of the period to obtain the inventory cost.
Both methods are estimates that produce different results and affect the reported net income differently. There is always the need for consistency in choosing the method to apply so that reported net income is not unduly distorted.
The cengage learning for the mitigation is the difference between the agreed upon $72000 less what was earned from the $25000 position that barton managed to obtain
<u>Explanation</u>:
Mitigation of damages:
In the case of barton v. vanhorn a court would consider barton's attempts at findings similar employment a reasonable step in mitigating her damages.
