Beech Corporation expects to incur selling costs equal to 5% of the selling price on each of the products.
1. Determine the amount at which Beech should report its inventory on the December 31, Year 1, balance sheet under (1) IFRS and (2) U.S. GAAP.
2. Write a 2-page evaluation, which compares and contrasts the two balance sheets and how these differences impact reporting. Support your statements with references from the text and a minimum of two additional sources formatted according to C5U-Global Guide to Writing and APA Requirements. The CSU-Global Library is a good place to locate these sources.
Submit your responses in MS Word as one document. Label each section clearly. If you choose to use an Excel spreadsheet for your calculations for question 1, please copy and paste your spreadsheet into your Word document.
