CASE 21-29
A. A price of $8 is proper for pricing L37 spars at 12-31-11 since the next shipment of
spars was not received until 1-06-12. However, the next invoice shows a lower cost,
which indicates a decline in the value of this product. If the net realizable value
(selling price less cost to sell) is less than the $8 per meter cost, the spars should be
revalued to net realizable value at 12-31-11.
B. The total is 10,000/12 feet times $1.20 per foot = $1,000. In addition, the freight of
$200 should have been as follows:
$200 / (12,800 inches / 12 inches per foot) = $0.1875 per ft.
Total inventory cost should be ($1.20 + 0.1875 per foot) times 833 feet (10,000/12) =
$1,155.79 or an overstatement of inventory by $10,844.21.
Voucher number 12-81 is not used because the receiving date is after year-end
D. FIFO value:
Voucher 12-61 800 feet at $8.00 per foot = $6,400
Voucher 11-81 200 feet at $8,20 per foot = $1,640
= $8,040
E. Pricing is correct if the item is for inventory. It is possible that this item should be
capitalized.

CONCLUSION:
There is a material potential misstatement due to the number and size of misstatements found relative to the sample chosen. In order to
determine a more accurate estimate of the actual misstatement, additional tests are necessary.
