Answer:

d. $2,676

Explanation:

The computation of the horizontal value is shown below:

FCF1 = (100 × 1.06) = 106

FCF2  = (106 × 1.06) = 112.36

FCF3 = (112.36 × 1.06) = 119.1016

FCF4  = (119.1016 × 1.06) = 126.247696

FCF5  = (126.247696 × 1.06) = 133.8225578

Now

Horizon value is

= FCF5 ÷ (Cost of capital  - Growth rate)

= 133.8225578 ÷ (0.08  - 0.03)

= $2,676

Hence, the correct option is d.

Berkshire Inc. uses a periodic inventory system. At the end of 2015, it missed counting some inventory items, resulting in an in
zlopas [31]

Answer:

Assets understated by $510,000, liabilities understated by $153,000 and shareholders' equity understated by $357,000.

Explanation:

An understatement of closing inventory will have the following effects,

First of all the inventory as an asset is understated by $510,000

Second, this inventory was subject to deduction from the Cost of goods sold as, Cost of goods sold = Opening Inventory + Purchases - Closing Inventory.

Since this amount was not subtracted from the CGS, the gross profit and ultimately the Net profits were understated by $510,000.

This will be added in the net profits.

With an increase in net profits, the tax payable amount also increases. This is calculated as 510,000 * 0.30 = $153,000

So total change in profits is = 510,000 - 153,000 = $357,000

While $153,000 is still payable and is recorded as a tax payable liability.

Thus,

Assets understated by $510,000

Liabilities Understated by $153,000 (tax payable)

Share holders equity understated by $357,000 (part of retained profits)

Hope that helps.
