Cevap: ₦920,000

Cevap

₦920,000

Factory overheads encompass all indirect manufacturing expenses incurred inside the factory. Factory rent is adjusted for prepayment (₦450,000 - ₦50,000 = ₦400,000) and supervisor salary is adjusted for accrual (₦150,000 + ₦30,000 = ₦180,000). Adding indirect wages (₦280,000) and lubricants (₦60,000) gives total factory overheads of ₦920,000. Direct wages belong to prime cost, and office administrative rent is an administrative expense.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Adjust factory rent for prepayment

₦450,000 - ₦50,000 = ₦400,000

Prepaid rent relates to the next period and must be deducted from cash paid.

2

Adjust factory supervisor salary for accrual

₦150,000 + ₦30,000 = ₦180,000

Accrued expenses incurred during the current period must be added to cash paid.

3

Sum all indirect manufacturing expenses (factory overheads)

₦400,000 (Factory Rent) + ₦280,000 (Indirect Wages) + ₦180,000 (Supervisor Salary) + ₦60,000 (Lubricants) = ₦920,000

Factory overheads consist of all indirect costs incurred in the manufacturing area. Direct wages belong to prime cost, and office administrative rent belongs to administrative expenses.

Cevap: Copyright royalties paid per copy to book authors and rental fees for specialized binding machinery hired exclusively for a specific job

Cevap

Copyright royalties paid per copy to book authors and rental fees for specialized binding machinery hired exclusively for a specific job.

Direct expenses are costs specifically incurred for a particular job or product line, apart from direct materials and direct labour. Copyright royalties paid per copy to authors and rental fees for specialized machinery hired exclusively for a specific contract are directly traceable to specific production runs and are therefore classified as direct expenses.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Define Prime Cost and its components

Prime Cost consists of Direct Materials + Direct Labour + Direct Expenses.

Understanding the components of Prime Cost is essential for proper cost classification in manufacturing accounts.

2

Identify the definition of Direct Expenses

Direct expenses are expenditures incurred directly and exclusively for a specific product, job, or batch, other than raw materials and direct labour.

This isolates direct expenses from direct materials, direct labour, and indirect factory overheads.

3

Classify each given cost item

Item I (Author Royalties) = Direct Expense; Item II (Paper and Ink) = Direct Material; Item III (Special Machinery Hire for a Specific Job) = Direct Expense; Item IV (Factory Maintenance Engineer Salary) = Factory Overhead (Indirect Labour).

Soldaki öğeye tıklayın, sonra eşleşen sağdaki öğeye tıklayın

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

Prime Cost matches with the aggregate total of direct materials, direct labour, and direct expenses. Factory Overheads matches with the sum of all indirect factory production expenses. Work-in-Progress matches with partially completed goods remaining in the factory at period end. Cost of Production matches with the net total cost of completed goods transferred to the Trading Account.

Each manufacturing term is accurately matched with its accounting definition: Prime Cost is the sum of all direct expenses; Factory Overheads represents all indirect production expenses; Work-in-Progress refers to uncompleted inventory at period end; and Cost of Production is the net cost of finished goods transferred to the Trading Account.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the primary direct components of production cost.

Prime Cost is the sum of Direct Material + Direct Labour + Direct Expenses.

Direct expenses are costs specifically traced and assigned directly to units produced.

2

Identify the indirect operational costs within the factory.

Factory Overheads comprise indirect material, indirect labour (e.g., supervisor salary), and indirect expenses (e.g., factory rent, machinery depreciation).

Costs incurred inside the factory that cannot be traced directly to a single unit are treated as factory overheads.

3

Evaluate uncompleted inventory at the closing date.

Work-in-Progress (WIP) represents goods partially processed but not yet finished.

Adjusting for opening and closing WIP ensures that costs allocated strictly match goods completed in the current period.

4

Determine the overall balance transferred out of the Manufacturing Account.

Cost of Production = Prime Cost + Factory Overheads + Opening WIP - Closing WIP.

This total reflects the cost to bring finished goods into stock and is transferred to the Trading Account.

Cevap: ₦1,360,000

Cevap

The total factory overheads to be charged in the Manufacturing Account is ₦1,360,000.

The correct total of ₦1,360,000 is derived by aggregating all indirect costs attributable to production: Indirect labor (₦420,000), Factory portion of rent after deducting prepayment [80% × (₦600,000 - ₦100,000) = ₦400,000], Factory machinery depreciation (₦250,000), Machine lubricants and consumables (₦90,000), and Factory insurance after adding accruals (₦160,000 + ₦40,000 = ₦200,000). Direct raw materials and direct wages belong to Prime Cost and are excluded.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the factory portion of rent and rates after adjusting for prepayments.

Total rent expense for the period = ₦600,000 - ₦100,000 (prepayment) = ₦500,000. Factory share (80%) = 80% × ₦500,000 = ₦400,000.

Prepaid expenses must be deducted to reflect only the current period's cost, and non-factory allocations must be excluded.

2

Calculate the total factory insurance expense including accruals.

Factory insurance for the period = ₦160,000 + ₦40,000 (accrual) = ₦200,000.

Accrued expenses incurred in the period must be added to the cash paid.

3

Identify all indirect manufacturing cost items and sum them up.

Indirect factory labor (₦420,000) + Apportioned factory rent (₦400,000) + Factory machinery depreciation (₦250,000) + Machine lubricants and consumables (₦90,000) + Adjusted factory insurance (₦200,000) = ₦1,360,000.

Factory overheads consist strictly of indirect manufacturing costs, excluding direct costs (raw materials and direct wages).

Cevap: ₦835,000

Cevap

The prime cost of production is ₦835,000.

Prime cost is the total of all direct production costs. First, calculate the cost of raw materials consumed: Opening Stock (₦150,000) + Purchases (₦420,000) + Carriage Inwards (₦30,000) - Closing Stock (₦90,000) = ₦510,000. Next, add all other direct costs, which are Direct Factory Wages (₦280,000) and Production Royalties (₦45,000). ₦510,000 + ₦280,000 + ₦45,000 gives ₦835,000. Indirect costs such as factory supervisor salary, factory rent, and plant depreciation are factory overheads and are excluded from prime cost.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the Cost of Raw Materials Consumed

Raw Materials Consumed = Opening Stock + Purchases + Carriage Inwards - Closing Stock = ₦150,000 + ��420,000 + ₦30,000 - ₦90,000 = ₦510,000

Carriage inwards is a direct expenses added to purchases, while closing stock must be deducted to find the cost of materials actually used in production.

2

Identify other direct cost components

Direct Factory Wages = ₦280,000; Production Royalties = ��45,000

Royalties tied directly to production units and direct factory labor are direct costs, whereas supervisor salary, factory rent, and plant depreciation are indirect factory overheads.

3

Compute Prime Cost

Prime Cost = Raw Materials Consumed + Direct Wages + Direct Expenses = ₦510,000 + ₦280,000 + ₦45,000 = ₦835,000

Prime cost is defined as the aggregate total of all direct production costs.

Anahtar Kavram

Prime cost comprises all direct costs of production: direct raw materials consumed, direct wages/labor, and direct expenses (such as royalties or carriage inwards on raw materials). Factory overheads are excluded.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

Patent royalty per unit matches with direct expense forming Prime Cost; Depreciation of factory plant matches with indirect manufacturing expense under Factory Overheads; Unfinished units at period end match with closing Work-in-Progress deducted from manufacturing costs; Sum of Prime Cost and Factory Overheads adjusted for Work-in-Progress matches with Cost of Production transferred to the Trading Account.

Each terminology in manufacturing accounting has a distinct classification based on traceability and function. Patent royalties tied directly to volume are direct expenses contributing to Prime Cost. Factory plant depreciation is an indirect operational cost categorized as Factory Overheads. Closing Work-in-Progress represents incomplete inventory and is deducted from total manufacturing expenses. The resulting grand total represents the Cost of Production, which is credited to the Manufacturing Account and debited to the Trading Account.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify direct cost items traceable directly to production units.

Patent royalty paid per unit is classified as a direct expense and forms part of Prime Cost.

Direct expenses are costs other than raw materials and direct labor that are directly attributable to producing specific units.

2

Identify indirect factory costs incurred within the production facility.

Depreciation of factory machinery is classified under Factory Overheads.

Factory overheads encompass all indirect costs of manufacturing that support production without being directly tied to a specific unit.

3

Analyze the accounting treatment for partially completed inventory.

Unfinished units at period end represent closing Work-in-Progress and are subtracted from cumulative production costs.

Deducting closing Work-in-Progress ensures that costs incurred on incomplete goods are excluded from the period's cost of completed goods.

4

Determine the final output metric of the Manufacturing Account.

Prime Cost + Factory Overheads + Net Work-in-Progress adjustment equals the Cost of Production transferred to the Trading Account.

The primary objective of the Manufacturing Account is to determine the Cost of Production for transfer to the Trading Account to ascertain trading gross profit.

Cevap: ₦425,000

Cevap

The total factory overhead for the year is ₦425,000.

The correct calculation isolates all indirect manufacturing expenses—supervisor salary (₦180,000), machine depreciation (₦95,000), indirect materials (₦45,000), and electricity adjusted for prepayment (₦120,000 - ₦15,000 = ₦105,000)—and sums them to ₦425,000. Direct wages are excluded as they are part of prime cost.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the net factory electricity expense for the current financial year by adjusting for prepayment.

₦120,000 - ₦15,000 = ₦105,000

Prepayments represent expenses paid for a future period and must be deducted from cash paid under the accrual concept.

2

Identify all indirect manufacturing expenses (factory overheads) and exclude direct costs.

Factory Supervisor's Salary = ₦180,000; Depreciation of Machinery = ₦95,000; Indirect Materials = ₦45,000; Adjusted Electricity = ₦105,000. (Direct Wages of ₦300,000 excluded).

Factory overheads consist strictly of indirect production expenses. Direct wages belong to prime cost.

3

Sum up all indirect manufacturing costs to determine total factory overheads.

₦180,000 + ₦95,000 + ₦105,000 + ₦45,000 = ₦425,000

Adding all verified indirect costs yields the complete factory overhead figure.

Cevap: 72000

Cevap

The cost of production is

\text{₦}72,000

.

The cost of production is determined by summing prime cost and factory overheads, adding opening work-in-progress, and subtracting closing work-in-progress:

\text{₦}50,000 + \text{₦}20,000 + \text{₦}5,000 - \text{₦}3,000 = \text{₦}72,000

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the total factory expenditure prior to work-in-progress adjustments by adding factory overheads to prime cost.

\text{₦}50,000 + \text{₦}20,000 = \text{₦}70,000

Prime cost and factory overheads together represent the current period manufacturing inputs.

2

Add the valuation of opening work-in-progress.

\text{₦}70,000 + \text{₦}5,000 = \text{₦}75,000

Opening work-in-progress consists of partially completed goods carried over from the prior period that were completed in the current period.

3

Deduct the valuation of closing work-in-progress.

\text{₦}75,000 - \text{₦}3,000 = \text{₦}72,000

Closing work-in-progress consists of uncompleted goods at the end of the period that must be deferred to the subsequent period.

Cevap: $\text{₦}30,000$

Cevap

The valuation of closing work-in-progress as at 31 December 2025 is

\text{₦}30,000

.

The correct answer of

\text{₦}30,000

is obtained by first adjusting direct wages for prepayment (

\text{₦}90,000 - \text{₦}10,000 = \text{₦}80,000

) to get Prime Cost of

\text{₦}260,000

. Adding adjusted factory overheads (

\text{₦}120,000 + \text{₦}15,000 = \text{₦}135,000

) gives total manufacturing costs of

\text{₦}395,000

. Adding opening WIP of

\text{₦}45,000

gives

\text{₦}440,000

. Subtracting the transferred cost of production (

\text{₦}410,000

) yields the closing WIP valuation of

\text{₦}30,000

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate adjusted direct wages incurred for the period

\text{Direct Wages} = \text{₦}90,000 - \text{₦}10,000\text{ (prepayment)} = \text{₦}80,000

Prepaid expenses must be deducted because they relate to the subsequent accounting period.

2

Determine Prime Cost

\text{Prime Cost} = \text{Direct Materials} (\text{₦}180,000) + \text{Direct Wages} (\text{₦}80,000) = \text{₦}260,000

Prime Cost consists of all direct manufacturing costs incurred during the period.

3

Calculate adjusted total factory overheads

\text{Factory Overheads} = \text{₦}120,000 + \text{₦}15,000\text{ (accrual)} = \text{₦}135,000

Accrued expenses must be added as they represent costs incurred in the current period but unpaid.

4

Compute total manufacturing costs incurred during the period

\text{Total Manufacturing Costs} = \text{Prime Cost} (\text{₦}260,000) + \text{Factory Overheads} (\text{₦}135,000) = \text{₦}395,000

Total current production costs equal direct costs plus indirect factory costs.

5

Apply the Work-in-Progress formula to solve for Closing Work-in-Progress

\text{Closing WIP} = \text{Total Manufacturing Costs} (\text{₦}395,000) + \text{Opening WIP} (\text{₦}45,000) - \text{Cost of Production} (\text{₦}410,000) = \text{₦}30,000

Rearranging the formula

\text{Cost of Production} = \text{Total Manufacturing Costs} + \text{Opening WIP} - \text{Closing WIP}

isolates closing work-in-progress.
