The basic data are presented below for the three years covered by the example: Year 1-Year 3. There were 40 units in beginning inventory at the start of Year 1. Each of these units had a cost basis of $30 per unit.

                                          Year 1                                                   Year 2                                                   Year 3

Purchases         Jan.22 120@$31                                Feb.15 210@$36                                Jun.20 280@$42

                                Mar.20 240@$32                               Apr. 20 180@$38                              Aug.30 300@$46

                                Jul.30 310@$33                                  Dec.17 100@$40

Sales                     Jan.11 20@$60                                   Jan.15 50@$70                                   Jul.16 220@$84

                                May 15 320@$60                              Jul.30 150@$90                                 Nov.20 250@$90

                                Nov.25 300@$65                               Dec.20 350@$90

Sales and purchases are the same numbers for a particular year regardless of the inventory method being used. Sales figures for Year 1-Year 3 are $39,900, $48,500 and $40,980, respectively. Purchases for the same three years, respectively, are $21,630, $18,400 and $25,560.

Ending inventories for each system and for each method will usually vary by year depending on the particular sequence of the purchases and the sales. There is one notable exception: FIFO will always produce the same result for the perpetual system as for the periodic system. [LIFO liquidation occurs during Year 2.]

Ending Inventories:

●Perpetual/Periodic FIFO Year 1                         $_____

■Perpetual LIFO Year 1                                      $_____

●Periodic LIFO Year 1                                        $_____

■Periodic Weighted Average Year 1                   $_____

Acme Corporation uses the calendar year as their fiscal year for reporting purposes. Acme Corporation is owned 100% by Jesse Smith. Jesse Smith is quite wealthy - he has over $3 million in a personal savings account which is currently earning 2 one hundredths of 1% interest (or .0002 rate resulting in $600 per year). He also has many other investments. Acme Corporation has $300,000 of current assets. Acme has Accounts Payable of $40,000 and various Payroll liabilities totaling $109,000. Acme also has a Note Payable in the amount of $800,000. There are no other liabilities. Interest has been paid every year when due on December 31. The Note Payable is due in $200,000 installments on June 30 of each year for the next 4 years. The current interest rate on the note is 4%. However, according to the loan terms, if Acme's current ratio falls below 2, the interest rate will automatically increase to 7%. Since the note is due in installments over the next 4 years, management is presenting the Note on the balance sheet as a long term liability.

Is Acme's management reporting their balance sheet appropriately? What recommendations do you have for management? How do these recommendations impact the current ratio?
