ABC Inc. had two accountants named Ms. Lee and Mr. Wong who
created two different sets of income statements, cash flow
statements, and balance sheets to give to the Accounting Manager of
ABC Inc. Ms. Lee believed that the FIFO method was the best way of
costing inventory and believed that packaging the screwdrivers is
integral to selling them. Mr. Wong believed that the weighted
average method is best for inventory costing and that packaging is
not really important to sell the screwdrivers. ABC Inc. made the
following transactions:
- Jan 1st, 2019: ABC Inc. receives 1200 metal plates
for which it pays cash of $5 each from Metal Inc.
and receives 6000 plastic slabs from Plastic Inc. for which
it pays $1 to the supplier in cash.
- Jan 21st, 2019: ABC Inc. receives 600 metal plates
for which it pays cash of $6 each from Metal Inc.
and receives 3000 plastic slabs from Plastic Inc. for which
it pays $2 each to the supplier in cash.
- Jan 28th, 2019: ABC Inc. produces 25,000
screwdrivers and uses 1,300 metal plates and 7,500 plastic slabs to
make those screwdrivers.
- Jan 30th, 2019: ABC Inc. spends $5,000 cash on
packaging its 25,000 screwdrivers.
- Jan 31st, 2019: ABC Inc. sells 18,000
screwdrivers to Wan Chai Inc. for $10 each. However, Wan Chai Inc.
uses a Hong Kong Express credit card, which had fees of 3%, and ABC
Inc. receives the money in cash immediately from Hong Kong
Express.
