A legal firm would be considered a service company because they provide legal services to clients and persons.
Answer: Sell before assembly, the company will be better off by $1 per unit.
Explanation:
To solve the above question, we need to calculate the incremental profit or loss first. This will be:
= After assembling sales value - Unassembled unit sales value - Coat if further processing
= $87 - $62 - $26
= -$1
Since there is an incremental loss of $1, then the correct answer is "Sell before assembly, the company will be better off by $1 per unit".
The Cost of Good Sold is $36,000 lower than it should have been and the net income is $36,000 higher than it should have been.
There are two formulas that are important to know for this question. The first is Beg. Inventory + Purchases - Ending Inventory = COGS. The second formula is Sales - Cost of Good Sold = Gross Profit.
If you reported a higher ending inventory it is going to result in a lower value for Cost of Good Sold. In this case the company had too high of an ending inventory by $36,000, which mean that the COGS is $36,000 lower than actual.
When you have a COGS that is lower than it should be you are going to have a gross profit which is overstated. The Income is overstated by $36,000.
