Prepare a reconciliation of Lily's stockholders' equity of $100,000 to U.S. GAAP. Ignore income taxes.
The following financial information is for Lily Company, a non-U.S. firm with shares listed on a U.S. stock exchange.

Net income, computed according to home country GAAP

Stockholders' equity, computed according to home country GAAP

100,000

Research and development costs last year of $80,000; amortization
|
|
|
of these costs this year (same amortization amount as last year)
|
16,000

Interest expense

4,700

If Lily were following U.S. GAAP, the entire $80,000 in research and development costs would have been expensed immediately last year when it was incurred. Under U.S. GAAP, the entire $4,700 in interest expense would have been capitalized. There was interest expense of $2,000 recognized in the prior year in association with the same project; the associated construction is not yet completed, so no depreciation would have been recognized. Reconcile Lily's net income of $10,000 to U.S. GAAP. Ignore income taxes.
