Gerhard Company has 300 units costing $10 per unit in beginning inventory. During the year, the company purchases an additional 1,000 units costing $20 per unit and sells 1,200 units. The company has used the LIFO inventory method for the past 5 years. If the company had purchased at least 1,200 units, COGS would have been

$2,000 higher.

Joachim Company has 300 units costing $10 per unit in beginning inventory. During the year, the company purchases an additional 1,000 units costing $20 per unit and sells 1,200 units. The company has used the LIFO inventory method for the past 5 years. If the company had purchased 1,200 units, pretax income would have been

$2,000 lower. Reason: Currently cost of goods sold ($22,000) is computed using the 1,000 units at $20 plus 200 units at $10 ((1,000 x $20) + (200 x $10))so the units from beginning inventory are liquidated. If they had purchased at least 1,200 units, cost of goods sold would have been $24,000 (1,200 x $20); $2,000 higher; resulting in lower pretax income of $2,000.

Smith Company adopted dollar-value LIFO (DVL) as of January 1, when it had an inventory of $690,000. Its inventory as of December 31, of the same year was $758,100 at year-end costs and the cost index was 1.05. What was DVL inventory on December 31?

$723,600 Reason: $758,100/1.05 = $722,000 giving 2 layers of $690,000 and $32,000. $690,000 x 1.0 = $690,000 $32,000 x 1.05 = $33,600 $690,000 + $33,600 = $723,600

Western Company adopted dollar-value LIFO (DVL) as of January 1, when it had an inventory of $715,000. Its inventory as of December 31, of the same year was $815,400 at year-end costs and the cost index was 1.08. What was DVL inventory on December 31?

$758,200 Reason: $815,400/1.08 = $755,000 giving 2 layers of $715,000 and $40,000. $715,000 x 1.0 = $715,000 $40,000 x 1.08 = $43,200 $715,000 + $43,200 = $758,200
