All costs relate to the pumps produced, which are all unsold at year end. What is the cost of inventories?

The cost of inventories is Rs 58,00,000. It includes purchase price, non-refundable import duty, freight, direct labour and factory overheads. Selling expenses and storage costs not necessary for production are excluded from cost and recognised as expenses in the period.

  2. BRs 61,00,000
  3. CRs 59,50,000
  4. DRs 56,00,000

Explanation

Cost = purchase 40,00,000 + duty 2,00,000 + freight 1,00,000 + labour 10,00,000 + factory overheads 5,00,000 = Rs 58,00,000. Selling expenses and storage not necessary in the production process are excluded and expensed. Including selling expenses (Rs 61,00,000) is wrong.
