COST SHEET                             THEORY


 

Cost sheet is  prepared to calculate cost of production and net profit of the firm excluding financial expenses. First part is similar to manufacturing account with additional of administration overheads and selling & distribution overheads.

 

NOTES to be kept in mind.............

 

 

If work in progress is at prime cost, then it will be shown after “RAW MATERIAL CONSUMED”  

<<<<  Financial expenses are not to be taken in cost sheet  >>>>

 

For example >>> Discount  allowed, Discount received ; Provision for bad debt; Provision for 

                          Discount  allowed ; Interest on capital; Loan ; Interest on Drawings;  Donation paid;

                          Commission paid; Commission received; Income tax paid..  

<<<<  If closing stock of finished good is not  given then follow the formula  >>>>

 

  CLOSING STOCK  = Cost of production / Total units produced  x  Units left

 Total units produced = Sale  +  Closing stock  - Opening stock

 

Remember - All should be in units 

DIRECT EXPENSES.

 

wages ; Royalty on production ; Chargeable expenses ; other direct expenses ; Hire charges on special plant tool; Primary packing ; Productive &Manufacturing wages .

FACTORY OVERHEADS.

CALCULATIONS___________lifo & FIFO METHODS________

 

FIFO  :-  first in first out  (Perishable goods)

LIFO  :-  last in last out( Non-perishable goods)

 

NOTES to be kept in mind.............

 

---- Administrative expenses are calculated on TOTAL UNITS PRODUCE”  

 ---- Selling & Distribution expenses/overheads are calculated on” TOTAL UNITS SOLD”  

 

 ---- Calculation of Cost Per Unit.

          **   Upto cost of production total divide the amount by total units produce.

          **   Opening & closing stock of finished goods divide the amount by units given in the sum.

          **   From cost of goods sold till end divide each figure by total units sold.

 

EXPLANATION with EXAMPLES of each method----------------------------

 

Value of closing stock (under fifo method )

     

For example- Cost of production – 75000

                    No of units produce – 15000

                    Opening stock of finished goods  (2000 units) – 7000

                    Closing stock of  finished goods  ( 2500 units)-    ?

 

    Then Closing stock=    Cost of production / Total units produced  x  Units left

                                             75000          /             15000            x     2500

                                                                          Answer = 12500

Value of closing stock (under fifo method)

For example-   Cost of production – 75000

                      No of units produce –15000

                      Opening stock of finished goods  (2000 units) – 7000

                      Closing stock of  finished goods   ( 2500 units)-    ?

 

      Then Closing stock=  Cost of production / Total units produced  x  Units left

                                              75000          /           15000              x     500

                                                                 2500.

 

                   Value of Closing stock >>  7000+2500 = 9500  (answer) 

 

  OTHER CONDITIONS------------------------

 

If the goods sold on 20% profit

   

Let Selling price be 100; then cost price is 80  

If Selling price is 100 ; cost price is 100/80

If Selling price is186300 cost price is

                   186300/80 x 100

                        =232875

     (assumed that the Selling price is 186300 )  

If the goods sold on20% above cost.

 

                   Then - 20/100*186300

= 37260

 

COST OF SALES  - 1,86,300

NET PROFIT              37260

SALES               -     223560
