A. Prepare the necessary journal entries at December 31, 2021, to record the above information.
B. Prepare new comparative income statements to reflect the adjustments required (1) through (4) above.
You may ignore income taxes.
C. Retained earnings reported for the end of 2020 was $2,416,500 and at the end of 2019 was S2,112,000.
Dividends of $60,000 were
declared in each year. Prepare comparative statements of retained earnings for Lancer Company for 2021
and 2020, reflecting
appropriate adjustments from items (1)-(4) above, ignoring income taxes.

Lancer's records reveal the following information:
(1) Lancer neglected to record S8,000 of supplies expense at the end of 2020, so the supplies inventory was overstated at the end of 2020.
Consequently, the supplies expense computed for 2021 included the additional amount of supplies used in 2020.
(2) On 1/1/19, Lancer purchased a machine for $120,000. Although the machine was expected to have an eight-year life, it was erroneously
expensed in recording the purchase. The appropriate depreciation method for this machine is double-declining-balance with no residual.
(3) At the end of 2021, Lancer decided to change its inventory costing method from the FIFO costing method to the average costing method.
An analysis of the accounting records provides the following cost of goods sold amounts under average cost and FIFO:
Year
FIFO
Average
615,000 645,000
637,500
2019
2020
630,000
648,000 675,000
2021
(4) Lancer acquired a machine on 1/3/19 for $100,000 and estimated its useful life to be 6 years with a salvage value of $10,000. In 2021,
after the preliminary statements were prepared, Lancer realized that the machine could be used for an additional 5 years, but that the
salvage value at the end of that time would probably be only $5,000. Straight-line depreciation is being used.
