In 2023, the ending inventory was overstated by $181,000. The ending inventories for 2024 and 2025 were correctly computed. In 2025, accrued wages in the amount of $230,000 were omitted from the balance sheet, and these expenses were not charged on the income statement. In 2025, a gain of $178,000 (net of tax) on the sale of certain plant assets was credited directly to retained earnings. A major competitor has introduced a line of products that will compete directly with Kingbird's primary line, now being produced in a specially designed new plant. Because of manufacturing innovations, the competitor's line will be of comparable quality but priced 50% below Kingbird's line. The competitor announced its new line on January 14, 2026. Kingbird indicates that the company will meet the lower prices that are high enough to cover variable manufacturing and selling expenses, but permit recovery of only a portion of fixed costs. You learned on January 28, 2026, prior to completion of the audit, of heavy damage because of a recent fire to one of Kingbird's two plants; the loss will not be reimbursed by insurance. The newspapers described the event in detail. Analyze the above information to prepare a corrected balance sheet for Kingbird in accordance with proper accounting and reporting principles. Prepare a description of any notes that might need to be prepared. The books are closed and adjustments to income are to be made through retained earnings.
