Will this item be included in cost sheet If yes,why?
latest answer
It will be considered for calculation of cost of sales. When I said 'not considered in cost sheet', I meant till Cost of Goods Sold. Interest is a period cost. Sorry for the ambiguity π

Manufacturing overhead charged to production 77,200 My Ans:manufacturing overhead control A/C Dr 77200 To cost ledger control A/C. 77200 Icai material answer Work in progress control A/c Dr 77200 To manufacturing overhead control A/C 77,200 Why this differences sir?
latest answer
Charged to production means absorbed by production. So it should be Dr. WIP Cr Production OH Control Account. When you incur expenditure, the entry would be Dr. OH control Account Cr. cost Ledger Control Ac. It reflects the initial recording of manufacturing overheads into the cost system, not yet allocated to production.

How hours worked by Mr. Z is calculated? I am having doubts because in the soln below for the overtime caln is accounted for 2 times. But why ?
latest answer
What they have done is, they calculated the hours for: Days he worked Normal hours + Days he was overtime (by overtime, here in this calculation, they meant any day he worked more than 8 hours. They've considered the entire hours of such days) + holidays worked If you see further below, they have taken only 2 hours to calculate the overtime wage payable Hope you understood

The manufacturing cost of a work order is ` 1,00,000; 8% of the production against that order spoiled and the rejection is estimated to have a realisable value of ` 2,000 only. The normal rate of spoilage is 2%. RECORD this in the costing journal. This is the entry mentioned in icai book Material Control Account Dr. 2,000 Overhead Control Account Dr. 1,500 Costing Profit and Loss Control Account Dr. 4,500 To Work-in-Progress Control Account 8,000 Can someone please explain this entry. Because As per my understanding we need to reduce the losses from WIP So what I thought it would be WIP 8000 To MCA 2000 To OCA 1500 To CP/L 4500.
latest answer
I don't think so First we recorded the WIP cost, then wrote off spoilage

Variable cost
Costing
answered on 19-Oct-24 16:25
Variable cost = DM + DL + V. OH....and all other expenses incurred the factory which is varible... This is what sir told about varible cost in marginal costing... Does the expenses that he meant includes DIRECT EXPENSE?
latest answer
Variable Costs are those that vary according to units produced. If the Direct Expense is of such a nature, it will be variable. A question in the study material took it as Variable cost, despite nothing mentioned in the question itself
