VALUATION OF MATERIAL ISSUE: WEIGHTED AVERAGE METHOD

Costing

answered on 04-Aug-25 11:26

Sir, in other methods of valuing , i.e. FIFO & LIFO, they can be used on daily basis, but as far as the Weighted average method is concerned, it can be used only over a period of time, and that is because, to calculate weighted average, we need two or more purchases/ rates, which might not happen on a daily basis, purhcases may happen on weekly basis or sometimes monthly basis. Am i correct sir? [Video Time Stamp: 02:41]

latest answer

What I meant is for weighted average, the rate is computed based on purchases. If there is only 1 purchase, then that itself becomes the rate. When the next purchase happens, rate is updated.

INVENTORY STOCK OUT

Costing

answered on 06-Aug-25 10:58

Good evening sir, i have understood this concept but.. two things which i didnt understand is:- 1). The logic behind multiplying the probability of stock out with the stock out cost: - in this, we arive at the expected stock out cost. My concern is, why expected cost is used instead of actual stock out cost. What logic plays behind the usage of probability in costing. 2). The relavance of inventory stock out concept with Exam point of view and its importance in real life scenario. what does this concept helps a user to arive at? [Video Time Stamp: 15:51]

Why only remaining life of original license period is considered as useful life of Intangible asset ( i.e License ) by buying co from selling co even if selling co has renewal of license sir ? [Video Time Stamp: 08:36]

latest answer

If renewal is done at a significant cost, then it is treated as a new separate intangible asset because future economic benefits are different.
