RWP6-8 (Algo) Earnings Management Case Eddie's Galleria sells billiard tables. The company has the following purchases and sales for 2024. Eddie is worried about the company's financial performance. He has noticed an increase in the purchase cost of billiard tables, but at the same time, competition from other billiard table stores and other entertainment choices have prevented him from increasing the sales price. Eddie is worried that if the company's profitability is too low, stockholders will demand he be replaced. Eddle does not want to lose his job. Since 90 of the 490 billiard tables sold have not yet been picked up by the customers as of December \( 31,2024 \). Eddie decides incorrectly to include these tables in ending inventory. He appropriately includes the sale of these 90 tables as part of total revenues in 2024. Required: 1. What amount will Eddie calculate for ending inventory and cost of goods sold using FIFO, assuming he erroneously reports that 130 tables remain in ending inventory? 2. What amount would Eddle calculate for cost of goods sold using FIFO if he correctly reports that only 40 tables remain in ending inventory? 3. \& 4. What effect will the inventory error have on reported amounts for (a) ending inventory, (b) retained earnings, (c) cost of goods sold, and (d) net income (ignoring tax effects) in 2024 and in 2025, assuming that ending inventory is correctly counted at the end of \( 2025 ? \) Complete this question by entering your answers in the tabs below.
