Due to LCM/NRV application, the Cost of ending inventory has decreased. Due to this cost of goods sold has increased. The increased cost has decreased Gross profit and Income from Operations by 8,385 (equal to a decrease in value of ending inventory). Lower-income has in turn reduced tax expense by 3,354 (8385*40%). The final net income is lower by 5,031.
