Answer:
The journal entry is as follows:
Cash A/c Dr. $51.45
To Paid in capital in excess of par value A/c $51.42
To Common shares A/c $0.03
(To record the sale of the shares)
Note: The amount mentioned in debit and credit column in the above journal entry are in the millions of dollar.
Workings:
Cash = Shares sold × shares closing price
= $3 million × $17.15
= $51.45 million
Common shares = Shares sold × Par value per share
= $3 million × $0.01
= $0.03 million
Paid in capital in excess of par value = Cash - Common shares
= $51.45 - $0.03
= $51.42
Answer:
The inventory would be increased by $55,283 and the profit has been decreased by the same amount.
Explanation:
The reason is that the closing inventory has been increased by the difference of the correct and incorrect amount which is:
Closing inventory difference = $225,513 - $170,230 = $55,283
This will increase the closing inventory in the balance sheet and the increase in the closing inventory will decrease the cost of goods sold. The lower the cost of goods sold the greater is the profit.

Explanation:
Inflation is a situation where prices of goods and services become high. It can be caused by increased sand where consumers are willing to spend more on goods, or by an increase in production cost forcing suppliers to increase price.
The government can take various measures to control price increase during an inflation.
If money supply is reduced by less government spending and increased tax, there will be less tendency for price to increase.
Consumers will not be able to buy at the high price so suppliers are forced to reduce their prices
