Section 4 – Matters Related to Accountants and Financial Statements
Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
On November 22, 2022, the General Partner of Commonwealth Income & Growth Fund VII, LP, (the “Partnership”), in consultation with management and MORISON COGEN, LLP, the Partnership’s independent registered public accounting firm, concluded that the Partnership’s previously issued interim financial statements contained within the quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, should no longer be relied upon due to errors in such financial statements, and therefore a restatement of these prior financial statements is required. Accordingly, the Partnership will issue restated financial statements in an amended Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. The Partnership expects to file an amended quarterly Form 10-Q report on or before November 30, 2022.
During the second quarter of 2022, the Partnership recorded approximately $21,000 of depreciation expense when the actual depreciation expense should have been $119,000. The Company will restate its previously issued interim financial statements to properly record the depreciation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.
Subsequent to the issuance of the condensed financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, included in the Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on September 8, 2022, it was discovered that there was an error in the depreciation calculation resulting in an understatement of depreciation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 in the amount of $98,000. The impact of the restatement is as follows:
Condensed Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2022 – Accumulated depreciation increased $97,943, from $12,176,815 as originally reported to $12,274,758 as restated. Total assets decreased $97,944, from $2,626,444 as originally reported to $2,528,500 as restated. Limited Partners’ capital account decreases $97,945, from $1,708,248 as originally reported to $1,610,303 as restated.
Condensed Statement of Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2022 – Depreciation expense increased $97,944, from $20,564 as originally reported to $118,508 as restated. Total expense increased $97,945, from $295,813 as originally reported to $393,758 as restated. Net loss increased $97,945, from $96,436 as originally reported to $194,381 as restated. Net loss allocated to limited partners increased $97,945, from $96,436 as originally reported to $194,381 as restated. Net loss per equivalent limited partners unit increase $0.07, from 0.06 as originally reported to $0.13 as restated.
Condensed Statement of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022 – Depreciation expense increased $97,944, from $121,629 as originally reported to $219,573 as restated. Total expense increased $97,945, from $498,130 as originally reported to $596,075 as restated. Net loss increased $97,945, from $104,114 as originally reported to $202,058 as restated. Net loss allocated to limited partners increased $97,945, from $104,114 as originally reported to $202,059 as restated. Net loss per equivalent limited partners unit increase $0.07, from 0.06 as originally reported to $0.13 as restated.
Condensed Statement of Partners’ Equity as of and for the three months ended June 30, 2022 – Net loss allocated to limited partners increased $97,945, from $96,436 as originally reported to $194,381 as restated. Limited partners’ capital balance as of June 30, 2022 decreased $97,945, from $1,708,248 as reported to $1,610,303 as restated.
