Factory overhead is applied at the rate of Rs. 3.30 per hours in the mixing department and Rs. 4 per hours in the finishing department.

DescriptionRs.
Inventories on August 1st, 2019:
Raw materials16,000
Material-in-process6,000
Labor-in-process6,500
F.O.H-in-process7,200

Inventories on August 31st, 2019:
Raw materials18,000

Labor-in-process5,000
F.O.H-in-process6,000
Finished goods14,000

The Corporation produced 25,000 units of product during the month.



Requirement:

  • A schedule showing the cost of goods manufactured and the cost of goods sold.
  • Calculate per unit cost of materials, labor and overhead for the August 2019 production.

 

Solution:

cost of goods manufactured

 

Cost of Goods Manufactured

Per Unit Cost = Cost of Goods Manufactured / Units Manufactured

Per Unit Cost of Material = 49,000 / 25,000 = 1.96

Per Unit Cost of Labor = 49,500 / 25,000 = 1.98

Per Unit Cost of FOH = 48,800 / 25,000 = 1.952

Total Per Unit Cost = 1.96 + 1.98 + 1.952 =   5.892

W.I.P December, 3142,350

 

Other information:

  • Finished goods inventory Jan. 1 = 300 units
  • Finished goods inventory Dec. 31 = 420 units
  • Sold during year = 3880 units at Rs. 220 per unit

Required:

  • Cost of goods sold
  • The unit cost of Finished Goods Inventory as on December 31st, 2019
  • The total value of Finished Goods Inventory as on December 31st, 2019

 

Solution: (1) 

Production Budget

 

Solution: (2) 

Per Unit Cost = Cost of Goods Manufactured / Units Manufactured

Per Unit Cost = 703,300 / 4,000 (see working below)

Per Unit Cost = Rs. 175.825

 

Unit manufacturing working:

Total number of units sold = 3880 units

Add Finished goods inventory Dec. 31 = 420 units

Less Finished goods inventory Jan. 1 = 300 units

Units manufactured or Production Budget = 4,000 Units

 

Solution: (3) 

Finished goods inventory cost = Closing finished goods units * Per unit cost

Finished goods inventory cost = 430 * 175.825

Finished goods inventory cost = Rs. 73,846.50
