Based on the adjusted trial balance, you decided to prepare ESER's first set of financial statements in accordance with Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises (ASPE). You plan to apply what you have learned in BUS 285 to prepare a classified statement of financial position, multiple step income statement and statement of retained earnings (in good form). As you have not yet studied the cash flow statement, you decided to leave the preparation of the cash flow statement for later in the semester. 2. Now that you have prepared ESER's first set of financial statements, you need to prepare the closing entries (in good form) to prepare the accounting records for 2017. 3. In early February, your BUS 285 instructor discussed periodic and perpetual inventory systems. To date, you have been using a periodic inventory system for ESER. You decided to review your BUS 285 notes and prepare a summary of how a perpetual inventory system differs from a periodic inventory system and which type of inventory system would be more appropriate for Bob to use at ESER. 4. In BUS 285, you discussed the specific identification, FIFO and average cost inventory cost determination methods. You decided to make some brief notes explaining each of the methods and when they should be used and then decide on the most appropriate method to recommend to Bob for ESER
