Financial Statements of Manufacturing Businesses Manufacturing business

A business that produces or manufactures goods i.e. car/cloth manufacturer

Manufacturing account

Manufacturing businesses prepare manufacturing account as part of their internal financial statements. A manufacturing account shows the costs of running and maintaining the factory in which a final product is made. A manufacturing business will also trade by selling its finished goods to wholesalers or retailers, so it will prepare a trading account in its income statement as well as manufacturing account

Types of inventory in manufacturing business

There are three types of inventory in manufacturing business.

 Raw materials (main component of finished foods, wood for furniture)  Work-in-progress (value of semi-finished goods or incomplete goods)  Finished goods (end product)

Note:

All three types of closing inventory will appear as current assets in the Statement of Financial position.

Manufacturing cost

Manufacturing cost = Direct production cost + Indirect production cost

 Direct production cost (Prime cost) A cost that can be easily identified or calculated on a single unit produced.

 Direct material  Direct labor  Direct expenses (Royalty, Patents, Direct heating and lighting) Prime cost = raw material + direct labour + direct expenses  Indirect production costs Cost that incurred in the manufacturing process but they cannot be traced directly to the goods being produced.

Make Accounting easy with Sir Muzammil Manufacturing/Factory profit

Sometimes the managers of a business will wish to gauge how efficiently their factory is operating. They compare the price that the costs of goods produce in their factory with the cost of purchasing the same goods from an outside supplier. If it would be cheap to purchase the goods externally then it may be in the best interest of the business to cease manufacturing and purchase the goods. When the managers of a business transfer the total production cost to the trading account, gross profit is found by deducting the cost of sales from the sales revenue. This method does have a flaw- there is no indication of how profitable the factory is. We can determine the factory manufacturing profit by finding the difference between the cost of production and cost of goods purchasing externally

Importance of Transfer Price

 Better control of manufacturing cost.  Transferred price is compared with market price.  Manufacturing department is a profit centre.  Better way to measure the performance of the manufacturing department.

Drawbacks

 However, the use of this technique does not improve overall profitability of the business.  Can give an unrealistic view of the factory profitability unless other production prices are researched and used to set the transfer price.

Treatment of factory profit Transfer price = cost of production + factory profit Example 1

The following information is provided by El Sayed Manufacturing Company. Prime cost $86000 Cost of production $124000 Finished goods are transferred from factory to warehouse at cost plus 20% What will be the transfer price shown in manufacturing account?

Provision for Unrealized Profit (PURP)

The finished goods at the year-end are valued at cost plus the manufacturing profit margin. Unrealised profit should not be anticipated and the profit element should be removed from the inventory by creating a provision for unrealised profit. IAS 2 Lower of cost and net realisable value

Mega Lecture youtube.com/c/MegaLecture/

Make Accounting easy with Sir Muzammil

Prudence /not overstating profits/assets Realization

Treatment of Factory profit and PURP in Income Statement

 Factory profit same amount is again added in gross profit in Income Statement  PURP adjustment is same as provision for doubtful debts in Income Statement and is calculated as follows

F.G at transfer price = finished goods at cost (1+ mark-up) Increase/ Decreased in Provision of Unrealized Profit

Increase in Provision (Expense) Reduction in Provision (Income)

Dr Income Statement Dr Provision for Unrealized Profit Cr Provision for Unrealized Profit Cr Income Statement
