Problem 2-16 (continued)
3. In preparing the income statement for August, Sam failed to distinguish
between product costs and period costs, and he also failed to recognize
the changes in inventories between the beginning and end of the
month. Once these errors have been corrected, the financial condition
of the company looks much better and selling the company may not be
advisable.
