LO 1:

Discuss How to Classify and Determine Inventory

Merchandising Company

One Classification:

Merchandise Inventory

Manufacturing Company

Three Classifications:

Raw Materials

Work in Process

Finished Goods

▼ Helpful Hint

Regardless of the classification, companies report all inventories under Current Assets on the balance sheet.

A Big Hiccup

JIT can save a company a lot of money, but it isn’t without risk. An unexpected disruption in the supply chain can cost a company a lot of money. Japanese automakers experienced just such a disruption when a 6.8-magnitude earthquake caused major damage to the company that produces 50% of their piston rings. The rings themselves cost only $1.50, but you cannot make a car without them. As a result, the automakers were forced to shut down production for a few days—a loss of tens of thousands of cars. Similarly, a major snowstorm halted production at the Canadian plants of

Ford

. A Ford spokesperson said, “Because the plants run with just-in-time inventory, we don’t have large stockpiles of parts sitting around. When you have a somewhat significant disruption, you can pretty quickly run out of parts.”

Determining Inventory Quantities

Physical Inventory taken for two reasons:

Perpetual System

Check accuracy of inventory records.

Determine amount of inventory lost due to wasted raw materials, shoplifting, or employee theft.

Periodic System

Determine the inventory on hand.

Determine the cost of goods sold for the period.

Taking a Physical Inventory

Involves counting, weighing, or measuring each kind of inventory on hand.

Taken,

when the business is closed or business is slow.

at the end of the accounting period.

Ethics Insight Leslie Fay

Falsifying Inventory to Boost Income

Managers at women’s apparel maker

Leslie

Fay

were convicted of falsifying inventory records to boost net income in an attempt to increase management bonuses. In another case, executives at

Craig Consumer Electronics

were accused of defrauding lenders by manipulating inventory records. The indictment said the company classified “defective goods as new or refurbished” and claimed that it owned certain shipments “from overseas suppliers” when, in fact, Craig either did not own the shipments or the shipments did not exist.

Determining Ownership of Goods

(1 of 5)

Goods In Transit

Purchased goods not yet received.

Sold goods not yet delivered.

Goods in transit should be included in the inventory of the company that has

legal title

to the goods. Legal title is determined by the

terms of sale.

Copyright ©2017 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Slide10

Determining Ownership of Goods

(2 of 5)

Ownership of the goods passes to the buyer when the public carrier accepts the goods from the seller.

Ownership of the goods remains with the seller until the goods reach the buyer.

Freight costs incurred by the seller are an

operating expense

.

Consigned GoodsTo hold the goods of other parties and try to sell the goods for them for a fee, but without taking ownership of the goods.

Many car, boat, and antique dealers sell goods on consignment. Why?

Anatomy of a Fraud

Ted Nickerson, C E O of clock manufacturer Dally Industries, had expensive tastes. To support this habit, Ted took out large loans, which he collateralized with his shares of Dally Industries stock. If the price of Daily's stock fell, he was required to provide the bank with more shares of stock. To achieve target net income figures and thus maintain the stock price, Ted coerced employees in the company to alter inventory figures. Inventory quantities were manipulated by changing the amounts on inventory control tags after the year-end physical inventory count. For example, if a tag said there were 20 units of a particular item, the tag was changed to 220. Similarly, the unit costs that were used to determine the value of ending inventory were increased from, for example, S125 per unit to $1,250. Both of these fraudulent changes had the effect of increasing the amount of reported ending inventory. This reduced cost of goods sold and increased net income.

Total take: $245,000

The Missing Control

Independent internal verification. The company should have spot-checked its inventory records periodically, verifying that the number of units in the records agreed with the amount on hand and that the unit costs agreed with vendor price sheets.

O 2: Apply Inventory Cost Flow Methods and Discuss Their Financial Effects

Inventory is accounted for at cost.

Cost includes all expenditures necessary to acquire goods and place them in a condition ready for sale.

Unit costs are applied to quantities to determine the total cost of the inventory and the cost of goods sold using the following costing methods:

Specific Identification

(3 of 3)

Actual physical flow costing method

in which items still in inventory are specifically costed to arrive at the total cost of the ending inventory.

Practice is relatively rare.

Most companies make assumptions (

cost flow assumptions

) about which units were sold.

20

Income Statement Effects

In periods of changing prices, the cost flow assumption can have significant impacts both on income and on evaluations of income, such as the following.

In a period of inflation, F

I

F

O produces a higher net income because lower unit costs of the first units purchased are matched against revenue.

In a period of inflation, L

I

F

O produces a lower net income because higher unit costs of the last goods purchased are matched against revenue.

If prices are falling, the results from the use of F

I

F

O and L

F

O will report the lowest net income and LIFO the highest.

Regardless of whether prices are rising or falling, average-cost produces net income between F

International Insight ExxonMobil

Is L

I F O Fair?

ExxonMobil Corporation, like many U.S. companies, uses L

I F

O

to value its inventory for financial reporting and tax purposes. In one recent year, this resulted in a cost of goods sold figure that was $5.6 billion higher than under

F

I

F

O

. By increasing cost of goods sold, ExxonMobil reduces net income, which reduces taxes. Critics say that

L

I F

O provides an unfair “tax dodge.” As Congress looks for more sources of tax revenue, some lawmakers favor the elimination of L

I

F

O

. Supporters of

L

I

F

O

argue that the method is conceptually sound because it matches current costs with current revenues. In addition, they point out that this matching provides protection against inflation. International accounting standards do not allow the use of

L

I

F

O

. Because of this, the net income of foreign oil companies such as

B

P

and

Royal Dutch Shell

are not directly comparable to U.S. companies, which can make analysis difficult.

Inventory is classified in the balance sheet as a current asset immediately below receivables.

In a multiple-step income statement, cost of goods sold is subtracted from net sales.

Lower-of-Cost-or-Market

(1 of 2)

When the value of inventory is lower than its cost.

Applied to items in inventory after the company has used one of the cost flow methods (specific identification, FIFO, LIFO, or average-cost) to determine cost.

Companies can

“write down”

the inventory to its market value in the period in which the price decline occurs.

Market value

Replacement Cost

Accounting Across the

Organization (2 of 2)

Too Many TVs or Too Few?Financial analysts closely monitor the inventory management practices of companies. For example, some analysts following

Sony expressed concern because the company built up its inventory of televisions in an attempt to sell 25 million liquid crystal display (L C

.D) TVs—a 60% increase over the prior year. A year earlier, Sony had cut its inventory levels so that its quarterly days in inventory was down to 38 days, compared to 61 days for the same quarter a year before that. But in the next year, as a result of its inventory build-up, days in inventory rose to 59 days. Management said that it didn’t think that Sony’s inventory levels were too high. However, analysts were concerned that the company would have to engage in very heavy discounting in order to sell off its inventory. Analysts noted that the losses from discounting can be “punishing.”

Inventory errors affect the computation of cost of goods sold and net income in two periods.An error in ending inventory of the current period will have a

reverse effect on net income of the next accounting period.Over the two years, the total net income is correct because the errors

offset each other.Ending inventory depends entirely on the accuracy of taking and costing the inventory.

Looking to the FutureOne convergence issue that will be difficult to resolve relates to the use of the L

I

F

O cost flow assumption. As indicated, I

F

R

S specifically prohibits its use. Conversely, the L

I F

O cost flow assumption is widely used in the United States because of its favorable tax advantages. In addition, many argue that L I

F

O from a financial reporting point of view provides a better matching of current costs against revenue and, therefore, enables companies to compute a more realistic income.
