Answer:
False
Explanation:
The change in inventory balance in a period is usually due to purchases and sales. The period opening and closing balances are connected as such;
Opening balance + purchases - cost of goods sold = ending balance
Hence overstating the ending balance results in an understatement of cost of goods sold thereby resulting in an overstatement of net income and retained earning.
The retained earnings is a component of the stockholder's equity hence it is overstated as well. Inventory is an asset, so overstating it is equivalent to overstating the assets balance.
Answer: Cost of goods sold = $62500
Explanation:
Given that,
Sales revenue = $183,000
Ending inventory = $12,600
Beginning inventory = $15,600
purchases = $64,000
purchases discounts = $4,000
purchase returns and allowances = $1,500
freight-in = $1,000
freight-out = $500
Cost of goods sold = Beginning inventory + purchases - purchases discounts - purchase returns and allowances + freight-in - Ending inventory
= $15,600 + $64,000 - $4,000 - $1,500 + $1,000 - $12,600
= $62500

Answer: d. Net income is part of the computation for ending retained earnings.
Explanation:
In the statement of owner's equity, Retained earnings are calculated and it is done with the Net Income. This is why when the net income is calculated from the Income Statement it is transfered to the SOE and used to calculate Retained Earnings.
Retained Earnings are calculated by the formula,
Ending Retained = Opening Retained Earnings + Net Income (losses) - Dividends
Net income is added to (or subtracted from if it is a Net loss) the Opening Retained earnings balance. Net dividends are also subtracted.
