    35,000

    Explanation:

    Given:

    2018 ending inventory understated = 9,000

    2017 ending inventory understated = 14,000

    Pretax income = $40,000

    Computation:

    We know that ending inventory 2017 is opening inventory of 2018 so, we say that Opening inventory of 2018 understated by $14,000.

    According to rules, Opening inventory understated, overstated the profit and ending inventory understated, understated the profit.

    2018 ending inventory understated will be added into profit and 2017 ending inventory understated will subtract from the profit.

    Profit during the year = $40,000 + $9,000 - $14,000

    Profit during the year = $35,000
