You are the controller of Garton Inc. H. K. Logan, the president, recently mentioned to you that she found an error in the 2024 financial statements which she believes has corrected itself. She determined, in discussions with the purchasing department, that 2024 ending inventory was overstated by \(\$ 1\) million. H. K. says that the 2025 ending inventory is correct, and she assumes that 2025 income is correct. H. K. says to you, "What happened has happened-there's no point in worrying about it anymore."

Instructions
