Normal and Abnormal Losses

FFrederico8y ago
Hello sir, I found a question on process costing quoting : Input =1, 000kg Normal loss =10% Output =830kg Then there was also 5% of weight loss in the process. I failed to interpret the meaning of this 5% sir. First thought it was actual loss but then actual output was already given and different to what I got. My last thought was to add the 5% and 10% to have a new normal loss percentage. Help me out please.

The question does not really make sense. Are you sure you have copied it correctly? If it is in the BPP Revision Kit then tell me which question it is and I will check.
