Exercise 32

Inventory profits with lower-of-cost-or-market adjustment. Hide Corporation is a wholly owned subsidiary of Seek Company. During 2011, Hide sold all of its production to Seek Company for $400,000, a price that includes a 25% gross profit. 2011 was the first year that such intercompany sales were made. By year-end, Seek sold, for $416,000, 80% of the goods it had purchased. The balance of the intercompany goods, $80,000, remained in the ending inventory and was adjusted to a lower fair value of $70,000. The adjustment was a charge to the cost of goods sold.
