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:

Answer:
UNDER THE HISTORICAL COST OF PRINCIPLE THE COST OF LAND WOULD BE $82,000
Explanation:
Historical cost principle is one of many principle that is used in the accounting , where it states that the value of the asset which will be recorded in the asset side of the balance sheet will be based on the original amount of price which was incurred to acquire the asset at the time of purchase. In this we will include the broker's commission and amount spent for demolishing old building
COST OF LAND = purchase price + broker commission + cost on demolishing
= $70,000 + $5000 + $7000
= $82,000
