Mika Sorbino, an auditor with Martinez CPAs, is performing a review of Sergei Company's inventory account. Sergei's did not have a good year and top management is under pressure to boost reported income. According to its records, the inventory balance at year-end was \(\$ 650,000\). However, the following information was not considered when determining that amount.

1. Included in the company's count were goods with a cost of \(\$ 200,000\) that the company is holding on consignment. The goods belong to Bosnia Corporation.

2. The physical count did not include goods purchased by Sergei with a cost of \(\$ 40,000\) that were shipped FOB shipping point on December 28 and did not arrive at Sergei's warehouse until January 3.

3. Included in the inventory account was \(\$ 15,000\) of office supplies that were stored in the warehouse and were to be used by the company's supervisors and managers during the coming year.

4. The company received an order on December 28 that was boxed and was sitting on the loading dock awaiting pick-up on December 31. The shipper picked up the goods on January 1 and delivered them on January 6 . The shipping terms were FOB shipping point. The goods had a selling price of \(\$ 40,000\) and a cost of \(\$ 30,000\). The goods were not included in the count because they were sitting on the dock.

5. On December 29 , Sergei shipped goods with a selling price of \(\$ 80,000\) and a cost of \(\$ 60,000\) to Oman Sales Corporation FOB shipping point. The goods arrived on January 3. Oman Sales had only ordered goods with a selling price of \(\$ 10,000\) and a cost of \(\$ 8,000\). However, a Sergei's sales manager had authorized the shipment and said that if Oman wanted to ship the goods back next week, it could.

6. Included in the count was \(\$ 30,000\) of goods that were parts for a machine that the company no longer made. Given the high-tech nature of Sergei's products, it was unlikely that these obsolete parts had any other use. However, management would prefer to keep them on the books at cost, "since that is what we paid for them, after all."
