Chapter 21, Problem 1SSC
Surfing the Standards: Change in Accounting Principle
- 1. Read FASB ASC 250-10-S99 to respond to the following question. ASCO Recordings has decided to change its inventory system from the LIFO method to the FIFO method for the 2015 fiscal year. Because it does not carry much inventory, the change in principle does not have a material effect on the financial statements of prior periods. Accordingly, it plans not to adjust comparative financial statements presented but rather to report the cumulative effect of the change through
retained earnings as of the beginning of the 2015 fiscal year. Is this approach permissible? If not, how must ASCO Recordings report this change in principle? - 2. Read FASB ASC 250-10-45 to respond to the following question Basty Needleworks, a calendar-year firm, has decided to change its inventory system from the FIFO method to the LIFO method. It made this decision in July 2015, and thus plans to report under LIFO for the first time in its third quarter of 2015 filings. Based on the impracticability rules associated with retrospective application, it plans to use the prospective method of reporting for the change in principle beginning in the third quarter. Is this approach permissible? If not, how must Basty report this change in principle?
