Dalton Company was undergoing an end of year audit of its financial records. The auditors were in the process of reviewing Dalton's inventory for year end, December 31, 2014. They completed an end of year inventory. The value of the ending inventory prior to any adjustments was $185,000, but before finishing up they had a few questions. Discussion with Dalton's accountant revealed the following:
(a) Dalton sold goods costing $60,000 to Summey Company FOB shipping point on December 28. The goods are not expected to reach Summey until January 12. The goods were not included in the physical inventory because they were not in the warehouse.
(b) The physical count of the inventory did not include goods costing $95,000 that were shipped to Dalton FOB destination on December 27 and were still in transit at year-end.
(c) Dalton received goods costing $25,000 on January 2. The goods were shipped FOB shipping point on December 26 by Strong Company. The goods were not included in the physical count.
(d) Dalton sold goods costing $40,000 to Hampton Company FOB destination on December 30. The goods were received by Hampton Company on January 8. Because the goods had been shipped, they were excluded from the physical inventory count.
(e) Dalton received goods costing $42,000 on January 2 that were shipped FOB destination on December 29. The shipment was a rush order that was suppose to arrive December 31. This purchase was included in the ending inventory of $192,000.
(f) Dalton Company, as the consignee, had goods on consignment that cost $3,000. Because these goods were on hand as of December 31, they were included in the physical inventory count.
