Pr. 4-151—Irregular items and financial statements.
The accountant preparing the income statement for Bakersfield, Inc. had some doubts about the
appropriate accounting treatment of the six items listed below during the fiscal year ending
December 31, 2019. Assume a tax rate of 40 percent.
1. The corporation disposed of its sporting goods division during 2019. This disposal meets
the criteria for discontinued operations. The division correctly calculated income from
operating this division of €150,000 before taxes and a loss of €20,000 before taxes on the
disposal of the division. All of these events occurred in 2019 and have not been recorded.
2. The company recorded advances of €15,000 to employees made December 31, 2019 as
Salaries and Wages Expense.
3. Dividends of $10,000 during 2019 were recorded as an operating expense.
4. In 2019, Bakersfield changed its method of accounting for inventory from the first–in first-
out method to the average cost method. Inventory in 2019 was correctly recorded using
the average cost method. The new inventory method would have resulted in an additional
€125,000 of cost of goods sold (before taxes) being reported on prior years’ income
statement.
5. Office equipment purchased January 1, 2019 for €60,000 was incorrectly charged to
Supplies Expense at the time of purchase. The office equipment has an estimated three–
year service life with no expected residual value. Bakersfield uses the straight-line method
to depreciate office equipment for financial reporting purposes. This error has not been
corrected.
6. On January 1, 2015, Bakersfield bought a building that cost €85,000, had an estimated
useful life of ten years, and had a residual value of €5,000. Bakersfield uses the
straight-line depreciation method to depreciate the building. In 2019, it was estimated that
the remaining useful life was eight years and the residual value was zero. Depreciation
expense reported on the 2019 income statement was correctly calculated based on the
new estimates. No adjustment for prior years’ depreciation estimates was made.
Part A. For each item, indicate corrections to income from continuing operations before
taxes, if any. Denote any negative numbers by using brackets < >.
