In reviewing the December 31, 2014, inventory, Penn discovered errors in its inventory-taking procedures that have caused inventories for the last 3 years to be incorrect, as follows. December 31, 2012 December 31, 2013 December 31, 2014 Understated Understated Overstated $17,800 $20,300 $7,200 Penn has already made an entry that established the incorrect December 31, 2014, inventory amount. 3. At December 31, 2014, Penn decided to change the depreciation method on its office equipment from double-declining-balance to straight-line. The equipment had an original cost of $101,000 when purchased on January 1, 2012. It has a 10-year useful life and no salvage value. Depreciation expense recorded prior to 2014 under the double-declining-balance method was $31,000. Penn has already recorded 2014 depreciation expense of $12,200 using the double-declining-balance method. 4.

Income for 2014 has been recorded using the percentage-of-completion method. The following information is available. Pretax Income Percentage-of-Completion Completed-Contract $167,400 $116,000 61,300 21,600 Prior to 2014 2014 Prepare the journal entries necessary at December 31, 2014, to record the above corrections and changes.
