Answer:
Dr retained earnings($21,600+$15,800) $37,400.00
Cr accumulated depreciation $21,600
Cr inventory $15,800
Explanation:
The errors that require adjustment are the overstatement and understatement of depreciation expense as well as the December 2021 overstatement of inventory.
The understatement of inventory in 2020 would have self-corrected itself in 2021 since closing inventory in 2020 deducted from costs of goods available for sale would be introduced as opening inventory in 2021.
net effect of depreciation=understatement -overstatement=$37,500-$15,900=$21,600.00
hence retained earnings would reduce by $21,600.00
for the overstatement of inventory,retained earnings would reduce by $15,800

Answer:
a. Steve will not have a capital gain in Year 1 for tax purposes.
Explanation:
Since Steve (the owner of Barb) sold his stocks to an ESOP (employee stock ownership plan), then he will be able to avoid capital gains taxes at least for the first year. ESOPs are qualified retirement plans and when they invest in stocks of the same sponsoring company, the transaction is not taxed if the seller reinvests (buys other stocks). As long as ESOP holds at least 30% of the company's stocks, then Steve can defer his taxes.
