Statement of retained earnings and balance sheet


Requirement:

Using the financial statement templates, prepare in good form the Income Statement, Statement of Retained Earnings, and Balance Sheet for the year.

Be sure the 3-line headings of each financial statement are presented properly.

Note:

The company uses the periodic inventory method. Mr. Harris has decided it is too expensive to count and price the inventory, and has asked you to estimate the inventory using an estimated gross profit percentage of 40.0%

Hint: Compute the gross profit amount first, then "back into" the ending inventory figure.
