Prepare the Cost Sheet with as many details as possible and ascertain the Selling Price per unit of the product.
1. Direct Materials - 12.5o/o ol Selling Price, 4. Administration 0H - 50o/o of Production Cost,
2. DIrect labour - 17.5o/o of Selling Price, 5. Profit (Rs.750 per unit) - 15olo of Sales.
3. Production Overheads - 1/3nc ol Prime Cost,

Solution: Note: It is given that Administration OH = 50o/o of Production Cost, i.e. 50% of Cost of Production.
We know that Cost of Production = FactoU Cost + AOH. Hence, if AOH = 50o/o of Cost of Production, the
balance 50o/o should be Factory Cost. Therefore, Factory Cost to AOH will be 500/o : 50o/o or I : 1.

Conversion Costs (100o/o), Dlrect tabour =
100o/o - 40o/o = 6o0/o of Convercion Costs.

Notes:
(a) The Cost Sheet is completed by Reverse Working. Purchases amount is the balancing figure.
(b) Direct Labour = !75o/o of Factory Overheads (given) Hence, if Direct Labour = L7,50, then Factory Overheads = L7,50
i l75o/o= Rs.10,00 (in 000s).
(c) Selling OH = Rs.700 p.u = Rs.3,50,000 (in total). So, Units Sold = Rs.3,50,000 + Rs.700 = 500 units.
(d) Cost of Goods Sold (excluding Administrative OH) = Rs.11,200 per unit.
Costof GoodsSold LessAOH = 11,200 x Unitssold = Rs.11,200 x 500 units = Rs.56,00,000.

absorbed at a uniform rate per tin ol polish sold.
/
Prepare a statement to show the Cost and Profit per tin of polish.

Solution:
Note: In this question, Total Costs are given and product-urise analysis is required to be made, Hence, the ratios for
appoftionment oh various types of costs should be determined first. The workings are given below'

1. Computation of Productiut Quantities


We know that Ooeninq Stock + Productic n - Ctosinq Stock = Sales. So, the are determined as unoer -
Pailicularc BIack Polish Brown Polish
Sales Quantity (in tins) 72,000 30,000
Add: Closing Stock (in tins) 5,400 3,000
77,400 33,000
Less: Openinq Stock (in tins) 2,4N 8,000
Prcduction Quaffit 751000 l5r$00
Since Production Quantfties are 75,000 at rd 25,000 tins respectively, the ratio of production is 3 : 1.

2. Cost for Dircct Materials


Polish Tins
TVoe of Polish Black Brcwn TVoe of Polish Black Btown
Production Ratio as above 3 I Production Ratio as above 3 1

Material Usage rate p.u. 100p/o 110o/o Material Usage rate (equal) 100o/o 100o/o

So, Material Cost (QtW x Rate) 300o/o lt0o/o So, Material Cost (Qtty x Rate) 300o/o 100o/o

Hence, Ratio of Polish Cost apportionment = 3O : 11 Hence, Ratio of Tins Cost apportionment = 3 : 1

It is given that POH varies with Wages. The relationship


Production Ratio as above 3 1 between POH & Wages = Rs.3,06,000 + Rs.2,04,000 =
150o/o of Direct Wages. Hence, POH are taken at 150%
Wage rate per unit 100o/o 108o/o
of Direct Wages, or alternatively apportioned in the same
So, Wages Cost (Qtty x Rate) 300% 108o/o
ratio as Direct Wages i.e. 25 : 9.
Ratio of Direct Wases apportionment = 25 : 9

5. Recognition of AOH & SOH: Conventionally, Administration and Sellitg are regarded as distinct functions. However, in
this queiion, they are given together and o<preCsed as cost per unit sold. Hence, Finished Goods are valued at the Factory
Cost, i.e. without including AOH. Here, AOH is based on units sold (not units produced).

6. of Stocks
Type Opening Stock Value = Qth/ x Rate Closing Stock Value = QttY x Rate
Black 2,400x 8.60 = 20,@0 5,400x8.60= 46,440
Brown 8,000x9.24=73,920 3,000x9.24= 27,720

Cost stage (WN 8). Rlso, Selling OH should not be included in Inventory Valuation, hence, for Stock Valuation
purposes, only Factory Cost is considered.

7. Administration and Se[ing OH: Since these are absorbed at a uniform rate per unit sold, they should be apportioned
in the ratio of units sold, i.e. 72,000: 30,000 i.e. 12 : 5.

o Selling and Distribution Overheads were Rs.2 per bearing sold for each type.
o Stock ol Finished Bearings on 1st May was 15,000 bearings at Rs.l5 of Type 'XD'and 20,000 bearings at Rs.8 ol Type 'XE'.

Comparing Proposed situation: 1.13C + 0.6P = 1,600 (Equation 2)
Multiplying EqpUon 1 by 0.6, 0.60C + 0'6P = 960

Basic Cost Concepts

Product A: Factory Cost + AOH = Total Cost. Product B: Factory Cost + AOH = TotalCost.
So, (34,000 + 15,000 x) + (34,000 + 15,000 x) y = 48,000 so, (40,000 + 25,000 x) + (40,000 + 25,000 x) y = 60,000
By taking (34,000 + 15,000x) as common factor, we have By taking (40,000 + 25,000x) as common factor, we have
+ 15.000 x) (1+ v) = 48.000............Equation 1

Dividing Equation 1 by Equation 2 [to eliminate / cancel (1+y)] and further simpliffing, we have,
(34,000 +15,000 x) _ (34 + 15x) _ _48 _ 4
(40,000 +25,000 x) (40 + 25x) 50 5

On cross multiplication, we have (34 + 15x) 5 = (40 + 25x) 4. This means 170 + 75x= 160 + 100x.
On solving, -25x = -10. So, x = t0125 = 0.4.

Substituting x = 0.4 in Equation 1, we have (34 + 15x0,4)(1 + y; = 46.


40 (1 + Y) = 48. So, (1+y) = 1.2, Thus, V = O.2

Answer: (a) Factory OH = 40o/o on Direct Labour, and (b) Office OH = 20o/o on Factory Cost.

For Job 103 Profit is 12.5olo on Sales. So, Cost is 100o/o 12.5o/o = 87.5o/o. Since this Cost is Rs.70,000 (as derived in
Cost Sheet above), Profit = 12.5o/o + 87.5o/o on Cost of Rs.70,000 = Rs.10,000.

Simultaneous Equations:
In the above question, SOH is not given. Hence, Factory Cost + AOH = Total Cost.
The Total Cost as derived above (for Job 101 and Job 102) is equated with Cost determined using x and y.

Job 101: Factory Cost + AOH = Total Cost, Job 102: Factory Cost + AOH = Total Cost.
so, (96,000 + 42,000 x) + (96,000 + 42,000 x)y = 1,51,500 So, (67,500 + 30,000x) + (57,500 + 30,000 x) y = 1,06,875
By taking (96,000 + 42,000 x) as common factor, we have By taking (67,500+ 30,000x) as common factor, we have
+ 42,000 x) (1+ y) = 1,51,500............Equation 1 67,500 + 30,000 x) (1+ y) = 1,06,875............Equation 2

Dividing Equation 1 by Equation 2 [to eliminate / cancel (1+y)] and fufther simplifying, we have,
(96,000 + 42,000 x) (96 +
_ 42x)
_ 1,51,500
242.4
(67,500 + 30,000 x) (67.5 + 30x) 1,06,875 L7t.0

On cross multiplication & simpliflcation, we have 16,416 + 7,182x = L6,362 + 7,272x.


Hence, 54 = 90x and x = 0.6 or 6o0/o

Substituting x = 0.6 or 600/o in Equation 1, we have (96,000 + 42,000)<0.6)(1 + y) = 1,51,500.


t,2L,200 (1 + y) = 1,51,500. So, (1+y) = 1.25, Thus, y = 0.25 or25o/o

Hence, Production OH = 600/o on Direct Labour and Administration OH = 25o/o on Factory Cost.

o The cost of Direct Material will be decreased by 60lo

o The Company desires to earn a profit of 10% on Selling Price.

Ascertain the Cost of Production and Selling Price for the next year.

Solution:
1. Direct Material Cost = (Rs.12,00,000 + 600lo due to Output Increase) Less 60lo Price Decrease
= (Rs.12,00,000 + Rs.7,20,000) x 94o/o = Rs.1&O+800.

2. Direct Labour Cost = (Rs,7,00,000 + 600/o due to Output Increase) + l0o/o increase due to Efficiency Fall
= (Rs.7,00,000 + Rs.4,20,000) x 110o/o = Rs.12r32r000.
Note: Since Efficiency declines, workers now take 10o/o mor€ time to compete the output. So, Labour Cost increases by 100/o.

A R+roller produced 400 metric tons of MS bars spending Rs.36,00,000 towards Material and Rs.6,20,000 towards Rolling
Charges, Ten percent of the output was found to be defective, which had to be sold at 10% less than the price for good
production. If the sales realization should give the Firm an overall profit of 12.5o/o on cost, find the Selling Price per Metric Ton
of both the categories ol bars. The scrap arising during the rolling process fetched a realization of Rs.60,000.

Solution:
1. ComDutataon of Desined Sales Value 2. ComDutation of Sale Price Der Ton
Particularc Rs. Let Price of Good Output be Rs.P per ton.
Cost of Materials 36,oo,ooo (a) o/o of Output 90% Good 10o/o Defective
Less: ScrapRealisation 60,000 (b) Quantity of Output 360 tons 40 tons
Net Cost of Materials 35,40,000 (c) Price per ton P P Less 10o/o = 0.9P
Add: Rollino Charoes 6.20.000 (d) Total Sales Value (b X c) 360P 36P
Total Cost 41,60,000 (e) Total Sales Value = 396 P = Rs.46,80,000
Add: Profit (12.5olo on Cost) 5,20,000 So, Normal Sales Price per ton = P = 46,80,000 + 396 = Rs.11,818.18
Desired Sales Value 46.80.000 So. Sales Price of Defectives = 0.9 x P = 0.9 x 11.818.18 = Rs.10,535.35
