ANSWERS
1. (500000)*4.60478=2,302,390 => final answer
2. 595000/15*3=119000
595000-119000=476000
476000/(10-3)=68,000
476000-68000=408000 => final answer
3. 360000-300000=60000 increase in COGS under LIFO
600000-60000=540000 => final answer
4. (750000-30000)/9=80000
80000*2=160000
750000-160000=590000
590000*(1-40%)=354000=> final answer
5. 400000*(1-20%)=320000. This amount is to be added to retained earnings as the 400000 increase in beginning inventory for January 1, 2008 decreased cost of goods sold for 2007, and hence net income for that year was understated by 320000
6. 80000-50000=30000
