The Seemore Lens Company (SLC) sells contact lenses with the terms FOB destination. For the year ending December 31, the company reported the following figures:
- Inventory: $87,000
- Cost of Goods Sold: $454,000
**Adjustments to Inventory:**
a. **Consignment Inventory**:
- $13,400 of lenses included in Inventory are held on consignment.
b. **Office Supplies**:
- $6,700 of office supplies are incorrectly recorded as Inventory.
c. **Pre-sold Lenses**:
- $9,700 of lenses, ready to be shipped on January 2, were excluded from Inventory and reported as sold.
d. **Damaged Lenses**:
- $3,850 of damaged lenses included in Inventory will be scrapped, having zero realizable value.
**Required Adjustments**:
For each scenario, journal entries are necessary to correct the current reporting, unless specified otherwise.

2. **Entry for Office Supplies**:
- **Action**: Adjust inventory to remove $6,700 of office supplies mistakenly classified as Inventory.
3. **Entry for Pre-sold Lenses**:
- **Action**: Update records to reflect the adjustment of $9,700 for lenses reported as sold in December but due for shipment in January.
4. **Entry for Damaged Lenses**:
- **Action**: Remove $3,850 from Inventory for lenses that will be scrapped.
**Note**: No journal entry is required if there is no impact on the financial statements from a transaction/event.
