Gary Kifer, an auditor with Neely CPAs, is performing a review of Monty Inc's inventory account as at December 31. Monty did not have a good year, and top management is under pressure to boost reported net income. According to its inventory count, the inventory balance at year-end was $ 769,000. However, the following information was not considered when determining that amount 1 2 3. 4. Included in the company's count were goods with a cost of $ 249,000 that the company is holding on consignment. The goods belong to Anya Corporation.
