When performing his year-end inventory count Mahmood accidentally counted goods that were in the despatch area waiting to be delivered to customers. The goods had a cost of $50000 and were despatched prior to the year-end.

Assets are over-stated (because they included inventory that has already been sent out to customers).
Profit is over-stated also.
