Excerpts from the balance sheet of Milton Corporation as of April 30, 1997 are presented as follows:

Cash $725,000
Accounts receivable (net) $1,640,000
Inventories $2,945,000

Assume that the only transactions that affected Milton during May 1997 were the dividend transactions. If the dividend declared by Milton had been a 10% stock dividend instead of a cash dividend, Milton's total shareholders' equity would have been

  1. unchanged by either the dividend declaration or the dividend distribution.
  2. increased by the dividend declaration and unchanged by the dividend distribution.
  3. decreased by the dividend declaration and increased by the dividend distribution.
  4. unchanged by the dividend declaration and decreased by the dividend distribution.

If an independent auditor has not become satisfied by means of other auditing procedures with respect to opening inventories, they should

  1. either disclaim an opinion on the statement of income or qualify the opinion thereon, regardless of the degree of materiality of the amounts involved.
  2. either disclaim an opinion on the statement of income or qualify the opinion thereon, depending on the degree of materiality of the amounts involved.
  3. disclaim an opinion or qualify the opinion on the statements as a whole.
  4. express an adverse opinion on the statements taken as a whole when the amount in question is material.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

If the auditor has become satisfied as to current inventory, the auditor may use alternative procedures to become satisfied as to opening inventories. But if they cannot become satisfied regarding inventories, a qualified opinion or a disclaimer of opinion may be expressed, depending on materiality. Because cost of goods sold is dependent on opening inventories, an unqualified opinion on the income statement is not possible.
