Allen's Hardware Store prepared the following analysis of cost of goods sold for the previous three years: Net income for the years 2021, 2022, and 2023 was $75,000, $60,000, and $57,000, respectively. Since net income was consistently declining, Mr. Allen hired a new accountant to investigate the cause(s) for the declines.
