Kevin Farley, an auditor with Koews CPAs, is
performing a review of Knight Company’s Inventory account. Knight did not have
a good year, and top management is under pressure to boost reported income.
According to its records, the inventory balance at year-end was $735,410.
However, the following information was not considered when determining that
amount.
Prepare a schedule to determine the correct inventory amount. (Show amounts that reduce inventory with a negative sign or parenthesis e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45).)

The company received an order on December 29 that was boxed and
was sitting on the loading dock awaiting pick-up on December 31. The shipper
picked up the goods on January 1 and delivered them on January 6. The
shipping terms were FOB shipping point. The goods had a selling price of
$40,460 and a cost of $32,030. The goods were not included in the count
because they were sitting on the dock.

On December 29, Knight shipped goods with a selling price of
$78,540 and a cost of $58,580 to Houchins Sales Corporation FOB shipping
point. The goods arrived on January 3. Houchins Sales had only ordered goods
with a selling price of $11,130 and a cost of $5,370. However, a sales
manager at Knight had authorized the shipment and said that if Houchins
wanted to ship the goods back next week, it could.

Included in the count was $47,890 of goods that were parts for a
machine that the company no longer made. Given the high-tech nature of
Knight’s products, it was unlikely that these obsolete parts had any other
use. However, management would prefer to keep them on the books at cost,
“since that is what we paid for them, after all.”
