A store accidentally priced an item at $20 instead of $30 and honored the mispricing. where should the $10 difference
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

The difference is attributed to sales.

Explanation:

The difference of $10 will be attributed to sales because $20 is charged instead of $30 which means selling price has been changed. However, it cannot be considered as a loss because the cost price is not given. It might be the actual cost price for the item is $15 and the store is selling at $20 instead of $30. So, in this case, the store is making a profit of $5. Thus, the difference is considered as the sale difference.

Assume that the fair values of the investee's net assets approximated the recorded book values of the investee's net assets, exc
Andrew [12]

Answer:

I could not find the exact details related to this question so here is a similar question to guide you.

Goodwill = Acquisition Price - Net book value (Investee)

= 75,000 - ( Assets - Liabilities)

= 75,000 - ( 90,000 - 40,000)

= $25,000

Identifiable noncurrent assets is overstated by $10,000 however. This will have to be adjusted for tax and then removed from Goodwill to find the Net goodwill that should be reported in the investor's consolidated balance sheet prepared immediately after this business combination.

= 10,000 ( 1 - 40%)

= $6,000

Net Goodwill = 25,000 - 6,000

<h2>= $19,000</h2>
