Your client took a complete physical inventory count under your observation as of December 15 and adjusted the inventory control account (perpetual tory method) to agree with the physical inventory count. After considering the count adjust ments as of December 15 and after reviewing the transactions recorded from December 16 to December 31, you are almost ready to accept the inventory balance as fairly stated. However, your review of the sales cutoff as of December 15 and December 31 disclosed the following items not previously considered Sales Date Cost Price Shipped Billed Credited to Inventory Control $28,400 $36,900 12/14 12/16 12/16 39,100 50,200 12/10 12/19 12/10 18,900 21,300 1/2 12/31 12/31

Answer:

The adjustments made are as attached in the excel sheet. As the goods are entered prior to shipment in the first item, the inventory control variation is to be made.

Explanation:

As the goods are shipped before taking the physical inventory, the inventory control is not made. As the shipment got prior to the physical inventory, the control amount is credited. However, the auditee credited Inventory Control for the cost of these goods on December 16, one of these two credits must be removed.

For the third item, similar situation happened where the inventory control is made.
