Serial No | Details | Cost of goods sold | Net income | Retained earnings |
1. | Overstatement of ending inventory | Understated | Overstated | Overstated |
2. | Overstatement of purchases | Overstated | Understated | Understated |
3. | Understatement of beginning inventory | Understated | Overstated | Overstated |
4. | Freight-in charges are understated | Understated | Overstated | Overstated |
5. | Understatement of ending inventory | Overstated | Understated | Understated |
6. | Understatement of purchases | Understated | Overstated | Overstated |
7. | Overstatement of beginning inventory | Overstated | Understated | Understated |
8. | Understatement of purchases plus understatement of ending inventory by the same amount | No effect | No effect | No effect |
