Answer: $19,750‬

Explanation:

The Annual Lease expense is the average of the lease over the 4 year period.

Annual Lease Expense  = Total lease expense / number of years

= (26,000 + 20,500 + 18,000 + 14,500) / 4

= 79,000 / 4

= $19,750‬

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer: $187 ⇒ Amount should ABC report as a net pension liability (asset) at Dec 31, 2018

Explanation:

Given that,

Data for 2018 as of Dec 31, 2018 are as follows:

Projected benefit obligation = $634

Accumulated benefit obligation = $418.44

Plan assets at fair value = $821

Pension expense = $192.48

Employer's cash contribution (end of year) = $361

The amount should company report as a net pension liability at Dec 31, 2018 as follows:

Net Pension Liability =  Projected benefit obligation - Plan assets at fair value

= $634 - $821

= $187 ⇒ Amount should ABC report as a net pension liability (asset) at Dec 31, 2018

Suppose management estimated the market valuation of some obsolete inventory at $99,000; this inventory was recorded at $120,000
Annette [7]

Answer:

a. An audit adjustment is needed since the best case scenario, where the net realizable value is highest would result in $92,000 - $5,000 = $87,000.

b. the value of inventory must decerase by $99,000 - $87,000 = $12,000, so COGS must increase by that amount:

Dr Cost of goods sold 12,000

    Cr Merchandise inventory 12,000
