Answer:
An adjustment to retained earnings is necessary when when there is a change from LIFO to FIFO.
Calculating the effect on retained earnings:
- In the year 1 company followed LIFO and recorded ending inventory at $177500. Had it followed FIFO it would have recorded at $195000. So there would be increase in income of $17500 (195000 - 177500).
- In year 2 it followed LIFO and recorded opening inventory at $177500 and closing inventory at $355000 and thereby recording Net closing stock of $177500 (355000 - 177500). Had it followed FIFO it would have recorded a net stock of $195000.(390000-195000). So there would be increase in income by of $17500 (195000 - 177500).
So in total of 2 years there would be an increase of $35000 Net income i.e., Retained earnings and increase in stock value of $35000.
The journal entry is:
Inventory A/c Dr $35,000
To Retained earnings A/c $35,000

Answer:
Gross margin= $744,760
Explanation:
<u>The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable.</u> The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.
Unitary fixed overhead= 52,900 / 21,500= $2.46
Total unitary production cost= 10.3 + 12.3 + 3.3 + 2.46= $28.36
<u>Now, the gross margin:</u>
Gross margin= sales - COGS
Gross margin= 21,500*63 - 21,500*(28.36)
Gross margin= $744,760
