Deflation is A) A decrease in the cost in the goods and services.

Deflation is the opposite of inflation (the increase in the cost in goods and services).

Hope this helps! :)

Income from installment sales of properties included in pretax accounting income in 2021 exceeded that reported for tax purposes
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

1. Taxable income = $76 million

2.  Net income = $65.25 million

3-a. Net current Deferred Tax Asset = $1.95 million

3-b. Net current Deferred Tax Liability = $6.25 million

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question. See the attached pdf file for the complete question.

The explanation of the answers I now provided as follows:

1. Determine the amounts necessary to record income taxes for 2021, and prepare the appropriate journal entry.

1-a. Note: See the attached excel file for the determination of the amounts necessary to record income taxes for 2021 and the taxable income.

From the attached excel file, we have:

Taxable income = $76 million

1-b. The journal entries will look as follows:

<u>Details                                                       Debit ($'m)             Credit ($'m)     </u>

Tax expense (6.75 + 19 - 3)                           22.75

Deferred tax asset (25% * (1 + 13 - 2))             3.00

Deferred tax liability (25% * (7 + 20))                                              6.75

Tax payable (25% * 76)                                                                   19.00

<u><em>(To record tax expense.)                                                                                 </em></u>

2. What is the 2021 net income?

This can be determined as follows:

Net income = Pretax accounting income - Tax expense = $88 million - $ 22.75 million = $65.25 million

3. Show how any deferred tax amounts should be classified and reported in the 2021 balance sheet.

3-a. The deferred tax amounts should be classified as follows.

From installment receivable in point (a) in the question:

Current deferred tax liability in 2022 (25%* ($4  / 2)) = $1

Noncurrent deferred tax liability in 2023 (25%* ($4 / 2)) = $1

From the depreciation in point (c.) in the question:

Noncurrent deferred tax liability (25%* ((24 + 24) - (14 + 7))) = $6.75

From the Warranty Expense/Payable in point (d.) of the question:

Current deferred tax asset (40%* 3) = $1.20

From the Acrrued Expense/Payable in point (e.) of the question:

Current deferred tax asset (25%* 7) = $1.75

Noncurrent deferred tax liability (25% * $6) = $1.50

3-b. These will be reported reported in the 2021 balance sheet as follows:

Sherrod, Inc.,

Balance Sheet (Partial)

As the Year Ended 31 December, 2021

<u>Details                                                                         $'Million    </u>

<u>Assets:</u>

Current Deferred Tax Asset (1.20 + 1.75)                      2.95

Current Deferred Tax Liability                                     <u> -1.00  </u>

Net current Deferred Tax Asset                                <u>   1.95  </u>

<u>Liabilities:</u>

Noncurrent Deferred Tax Asset (A)                              1.50

Noncurrent Deferred Tax Liabiity (1.0 + 6.75) (B)      <u>   7.75  </u>

Net current Deferred Tax Liability (C = B - A)       <u>    6.25   </u>

A company purchased inventory for $74,000 from a vendor on account, FOB shipping point, with terms of 3/10, n/30. The company pa
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

Cost of inventory =$73,280

Explanation:

The term 3/10 implies that the company would get a discount of 3% off the gross purchase price if its settles its account within 10 days of purchase. Since the payment was made 9 days after then the  discount is secured.

The cost of inventory =  the net purchase price + the freight charges

Net purchase price = Gross amount - discounts

Net purchase price = 74,000 - (3%× 74,000)=$71780

The cost of inventory = 71,780 + 1500= 73280

Cost of inventory =$73,280

Big Time Widgets has the following inventory data: December 1 Beginning inventory of 15 units at $6.00 per unit December 7 Purch
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Cost of goods sold on a LIFO basis for December = $409.50

If periodic inventory system is followed then, there is no proper weekly record, proper record is missing and therefore, average method is followed, in that case usage of LIFO or FIFO is not suggested.

Explanation:

As per LIFO method, we have Last In First Out which means the item which is last added in inventory will be sold first.

In the given instance we have things as following:

1 December       opening      15 units         $6.00 per unit           $90.00

7 December      purchased   50 units       $6.60 per unit           $330.00

12 December     Sales           45 units        $6.60 per unit           $297.00

Balance after sales

15 units @ $6.00 per unit = $90.00

5 units @ $6.60 per unit = $33.00

20 December    Purchased  30 units      $7.50 per unit              $225

29 December    Sales          15 units        $7.50 per unit              $112.5

Balance

15 units @ $6.00 per unit = $90.00

5 units @ $6.60 per unit = $33.00

15 units @ $7.50 per unit = $112.50

As stated above, under LIFO we have Last In First Out

Cost of goods sold

12 December     Sales           45 units        $6.60 per unit           $297.00

29 December    Sales           15 units        $7.50 per unit              $112.5

Total cost of goods sold in December = $297 + $112.5 = $409.5

In case periodic inventory system had been used then,

no proper record is maintained, for cost at which the goods are acquired, and therefore average method is followed, since no proper cost record is maintained.

Final Answer

Cost of goods sold on a LIFO basis for December = $409.50

If periodic inventory system is followed then, there is no proper weekly record, proper record is missing and therefore, average method is followed, in that case usage of LIFO or FIFO is not suggested.
