Expert Solution

(a) Cost of Goods Sold for 2015 as originally reported

Cost of goods sold Formula   = Opening stock + Purchases + Direct Expenses – Closing Stock

If the closing Stock is overstated by $ 20,000, Then the Cost of goods sold will be Understated by $ 20,000     

(b) Net Income for 2015 as originally reported

If the closing Stock is overstated by $ 20,000, Then the net Income will also be Overstated to the extent of $ 20,000

(c ) Cost of Goods Sold for 2016 as originally reported

Cost of goods sold Formula   = Opening stock + Purchases + Direct Expenses – Closing Stock

The closing stock of 2015 will be the Opening stock of 2016, So If the Opening stock Is overstated by $ 20,000, Then the Cost of goods sold for the year 2016 would also be overstated by $20,000

(d). Net Income for 2016 as originally reported

Closing inventory of 2015 will be the opening inventory of 2016, So the Increase in the value of opening stock of $ 20000 will result in decrease in the value of Net Income to the extent of $ 20000
