Adonis’s records indicated that the inventories would have totaled $63.2 million at December 31, 2020, if determined on a FIFO basis.

Retained earnings under the Balance sheet

Explanation:

Making comparisons between the two inventory value when using FIFO or Average cost method=

63.0M - 47.1M = $15.9M

We see an increase in the ending inventory.

Thus, this increase in income has been unprecedented, and may not have been distributed to the shareholders of Adonis Industries. On the balance sheet journal entry this extra income would be indicted on the balance sheet on the retained earnings column for year 2021.

Answer from: sofigaviria05

$16 million is inputed on credit side of adjustment journal

Explanation:

Firstly, let us compare the FIFO method and the average cost method

Using FIFO method, we assign the cost of first acquired items to sales, while we assign the value of the closing stock to include the cost of recently acquired items.

In average cost method, the inventories have prices which are at the average of all available inventories. Average cost is obtained by dividing is total cost of goods available for sale by total units available for sale.

We proceed to calculate inventory value:

It is given that the average cost of inventory is $47.2million and inventory cost at book is $63.2million.

inventory value = Average cost of inventory value - Inventory cost at book = $47.2 - $63.2 millions = $16 million

We now proceed to the adjustment journal.

To fill the adjustment journal, we take note of the following;

Inventory is an asset. There is an increase in asset value. Therefore, it is debited.

Since Retained earnings are liability. There is an increase in liability value. Therefore, it is credited.

This means we put a value of $16 million on the credit side of the adjustment journal

Alandowner entered into a written agreement with a real estate broker whereby the broker would receive a commission of 10% of the sale price if he procured a "ready, willing, and able buyer" for the landowner's property and if the sale actually proceeded through closing. the broker found a buyer who agreed in writing to buy the property from the landowner for $100,000, the landowner's asking price. the buyer put up $6,000 as a down payment. the agreement between the landowner and the buyer contained a liquidated damages clause providing that, if the buyer defaulted by failing to tender the balance due of $94,000 at the closing date, damages would be 10% of the purchase price. the landowner included that clause because she was counting on using the proceeds of the sale for a business venture that would likely net her at least $10,000. the buyer became seriously ill and defaulted. when he recovered, he demanded that the landowner return his $6,000, and the landowner refused. the broker also demanded the $6,000 from the landowner and was refused. the broker and the buyer filed separate suits against the landowner, with the buyer pleading impossibility of performance. the two cases are consolidated into a single case. how should the court rule as to the disposition of the $6,000?
