Answer:
The answer is stockholders' equity is overstated
Explanation:
When inventories are overstated it reduces the cost of sales because the excess inventory in accounting records means the ending inventory will be higher and cost of sales will be lower.
When ending inventory is overstated, total assets and retained earnings will be overstated. And when retained earnings is overstated, stockholders' equity is also overstated because retained earnings is a line item under stockholders' equity.

- The per instrument cost of the bank is $0.25. Assuming uniform cheque value, the 24 million remittances across 10000 cheque will mean per cheque value of 2400. If this amount can be invested at 8% p.a., then daily investment income will be approx = 2400 * 8% /365 = $ 0.526
- Now for the company to jus about cover the cost of the cheque processing, the time should reduce by (assuming fractional time in days is possible) 0.25/0.526 = 0.48 days
- Now if the interest that can be earned reduces to 4%, the average daily interest will also reduce to $0.263. At this level, the time required to cover the cost should reduce by 0.95 days
The difference is simply because the opportunity cost in terms of alternate usage of funds has decreased for the company.

we will decrease our liability against the customer and recognize the revenue by crediting service revenue.
