The Cain Company has just completed a physical inventory count at year end, December 31,
2014. Only the items on the shelves, in storage, and in the receiving area were counted and
costed on the FIFO basis. The inventory amounted to $80,000. During the audit, the independent
CPA discovered the following additional information:
(a) There were goods in transit on December 31, 2014, from a supplier with terms FOB
destination, costing $10,000. Because the goods had not arrived, they were excluded from
the physical inventory count.
(b) On December 27, 2014, a regular customer purchased goods for cash amounting to $1,000
and had them shipped to a bonded warehouse for temporary storage on December 28, 2014.
The goods were shipped via common carrier with terms FOB shipping point. The customer
picked the goods up from the warehouse on January 4, 2015. Cain Company had paid $500 for
the goods and, because they were in storage, Cain included them in the physical inventory count.
(c) Cain Company, on the date of the inventory, received notice from a supplier that goods
ordered earlier, at a cost of $4,000, had been delivered to the transportation company on
December 28, 2014; the terms were FOB shipping point. Because the shipment had not
arrived on December 31, 2014, it was excluded from the physical inventory.
(d) On December 31, 2014, there were goods in transit to customers, with terms FOB shipping
point, amounting to $800 (expected delivery on January 8, 2015). Because the goods had
been shipped, they were excluded from the physical inventory count.
(e) On December 31, 2014, Cain Company shipped $2,500 worth of goods to a customer, FOB
destination. The goods arrived on January 5, 2014. Because the goods were not on hand,
they were not included in the physical inventory count.
(f) Cain Company, as the consignee, had goods on consignment that cost $3,000. Because these
goods were on hand as of December 31, 2014, they were included in the physical inventory
count.

Dalton Company was undergoing an end of year audit of its financial records. The auditors were
in the process of reviewing Dalton’s inventory for year end, December 31, 2014. They completed
an end of year inventory. The value of the ending inventory prior to any adjustments was
$185,000, but before finishing up they had a few questions. Discussion with Dalton’s accountant
revealed the following:
(a) Dalton sold goods costing $60,000 to Summey Company FOB shipping point on December
28. The goods are not expected to reach Summey until January 12. The goods were not
included in the physical inventory because they were not in the warehouse.
(b) The physical count of the inventory did not include goods costing $95,000 that were shipped
to Dalton FOB destination on December 27 and were still in transit at year-end.
(c) Dalton received goods costing $25,000 on January 2. The goods were shipped FOB
shipping point on December 26 by Strong Company. The goods were not included in the
physical count.
(d) Dalton sold goods costing $40,000 to Hampton Company FOB destination on December 30.
The goods were received by Hampton Company on January 8. Because the goods had
been shipped, they were excluded from the physical inventory count.
(e) Dalton received goods costing $42,000 on January 2 that were shipped FOB destination on
December 29. The shipment was a rush order that was suppose to arrive December 31.
This purchase was included in the ending inventory of $192,000.
(f) Dalton Company, as the consignee, had goods on consignment that cost $3,000. Because
these goods were on hand as of December 31, they were included in the physical inventory
count.

Ex. 201
Dennis Lee, an auditor with Knapp CPAs, is performing a review of Dobson Company's inventory
account. Dobson did not have a good year, and top management is under pressure to boost
reported income. According to its records, the inventory balance at year-end was $640,000.
However, the following information was not considered when determining that amount.
1. Included in the company's count were goods with a cost of $200,000 that the company is
holding on consignment. The goods belong to Agler Corporation.
2. The physical count did not include goods purchased by Dobson with a cost of $40,000 that
were shipped FOB shipping point on December 28 and did not arrive at Dobson's warehouse
until January 3.
3. Included in the inventory account was $22,000 of office supplies that were stored in the
warehouse and were to be used by the company's supervisors and managers during the
coming year.
4. The company received an order on December 29 that was boxed and was sitting on the
loading dock awaiting pick-up on December 31. The shipper picked up the goods on January
1 and delivered them on January 6. The shipping terms were FOB shipping point. The goods
had a selling price of $40,000 and a cost of $30,000. The goods were not included in the
count because they were sitting on the dock.
5. On December 29, Dobson shipped goods with a selling price of $90,000 and a cost of
$70,000 to Central Sales Corporation FOB shipping point. The goods arrived on January 3.
Central Sales had only ordered goods with a selling price of $10,000 and a cost of $8,000.
However, a sales manager at Dobson had authorized the shipment and said that if Central
wanted to ship the goods back next week, it could.
6. Included in the count was $50,000 of goods that were parts for a machine that the company
no longer made. Given the high-tech nature of Dobson's products, it was unlikely that these
obsolete parts had any other use. However, management would prefer to keep them on the
books at cost, "since that is what we paid for them, after all."
