The Village of Dove ruses the purchases method of accounting for its inventories of supplies in the General Fund. GASB standards, however, require that the consumption method be used for the government-wide financial statements. Because its computer system is very limited, the Village uses a periodic inventory system, adjusting inventory balances based on a physical inventory of supplies at year-end. When supplies are received during the year, the Village records expenditures and expenses in the general journals of the General Fund and governmental activities, respectively. The Village’s inventory records showed the following information for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014:
Balance of inventory, December 31, 2013 $132,000
Purchases of inventory during 2014 772,000
Balance of inventory, December 31, 2014 150,000
