Answer

Retained earnings will be overstated by $38.40 million

Explanation:

The overstatement of retained earnings by this amount arises from the fact that if the depreciation of $64 million had been charged, the charge will have been tax deductible at 40% thus the amount overstated if (1-40%) x $64m =$38.4m.

Crote's retained earnings as of December 31, 2018, would be overstated by \$38.40 \text{ million}

<u>Explanation: </u>

Overstated = The amount is more than it ought to be = Very high

Accumulated depreciation =  \$64 \text{ million}

Tax rate = 40\%

In round 2 decimal places = 0.40

Right now, revenue is underestimated because cash was removed due to error of the depreciation costs

Round million on December 31, 2018 as 2 decimal places = \rightarrow \frac{64}{2} = 38

In decimals = \$38.40 \text{ million}
