Question to Solve
Hi, so 6500 units sold, and 200 units left at year end - in total produced 6700 units.
Fixed costs therefore allocated 41540 on 6700 units = 6.2 per unit.
Production cost 93130 also was used to produce these 6700 units = 13.90
But you sold only 6500 units therefore sales income is 169000 but costs are:
6500 x 13.90 plus 6500 x 6.2 - as only these were sold and the cost is materialised.
The remaining 200 is stock valued (200x13.90) plus (200x6.2)
Will be transferred to cost of sale when sold in next period
