Answer:

Entry to record adjustment:

COGS Dr $9.4m

         Inventory Cr $9.4m

Explanation:

The question relates to a change in accounting policy. According to IAS 8 (changes in accounting policy and estimate), a change in accounting policy is to be reflected retrospectively and prospectively, which means any changes should be implemented by bringing changes in the past records. Since CPS company has been using FIFO method, the inventory has been overstated in the financial statements. A shift to AVCO has resulted in a decrease in inventory value.

The value of inventory has to be reduced as a result of change in accounting policy (i.e $38m - $28.6m). This is the closing inventory so a reduction in the value of closing inventory results in an increase in cost of goods sold (COGS), therefore, the adjusting entry will be aimed at reducing inventory and increasing cost of goods sold, see as follows:

Entry:

COGS Dr $9.4m

         Inventory Cr $9.4m

Sustainable Growth Rate You have located the following information on Rock Company: debt ratio = 46.5%, capital intensity ratio
Sliva [168]

Answer:

The correct answer is 10.72% ( Approx.).

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Debt ratio = 46.5%

Capital intensity ratio = 2.51 times

Profit margins = 21%

Dividend payout = 38%

Formula to calculate sustainable growth rate ae as follows:

Sustainable growth rate = (Earnings retention rate × Return on equity ) / ( 1 - (ROE × RR)

where, Retention rate =(1 - dividend payout rate)

= (1-0.38) = 0.62

ROE = Profit margin × Total asset turonver × Equity multipler

= Profit margin × 1/capital intensity ratio × 1/(1-debt ratio)

= .21 × (1/2.51) × 1/(1-.465)

= .21 × 0.398 × 1.869

= 0.1562

=15.62%

So, Sustainable growth rate = (0.1562*0.62) / 1 - (0.1562*0.62)

= 0.096844 / 0.903156

= 0.1072

= 10.72% (approx.)

Hence, the correct answer is 10.72% (approx.).
