Inventoriable Product Costs

• For external reporting, merchandisers’ inventoriable product costs include only costs that are incurred in the purchase of goods.

• Inventoriable costs are an asset.

• Period costs flow as expenses directly to the income statement.


• For external reporting, manufacturers’ inventoriable product costs include raw materials plus all other costs incurred in the manufacturing process.

• Inventoriable product costs are incurred only in the third element of the value chain.

• Costs incurred in other elements of the value chain are period costs.

Manufacturing Company Example

• Kendall Manufacturing Company:• Beginning and ending work-in-process

inventories were $20,000 and $18,000.• Direct materials used were $70,000.• Direct labor was $100,000.• Manufacturing overhead incurred was

$150,000.


• What is the cost of goods manufactured?

Beginning work in process $ 20,000Direct labor $100,000Direct materials 70,000Mfg. overhead 150,000 320,000Ending work in process (18,000)Cost of goods manufactured $322,000


• Kendall Manufacturing Company’s beginning finished goods inventory was $60,000 and its ending finished goods inventory was $55,000.

• How much is the cost of goods sold?


Beg. finished goods inventory $ 60,000+ Cost of goods manufactured 322,000= Cost of goods available for sale $382,000– Ending finished goods 55,000= Cost of goods sold $327,000


• Kendall Manufacturing Company had sales of $627,000 for the period.

• How much is the gross margin?Sales $627,000– Cost of goods sold 327,000= Gross margin $300,000


• Kendall Manufacturing Company had operating expenses as follows:

• $80,000 Sales salaries 10,000 Delivery expense

30,000 Administrative expenses $120,000 Total

• What is Kendall’s operating income?


Gross margin $300,000– Operating expenses 120,000= Operating income $180,000

Flow of Costs through a Manufacturer’s Accounts

• Direct Materials Inventory• Beginning inventory+ Purchases and freight-in

= Direct materials availablefor use

– Ending inventory= Direct materials used

• Work in Process Inventory• Beginning inventory+ Direct materials used+ Direct labor+ Manufacturing overhead= Total manufacturing costs

to account for– Ending inventory= Cost of goods manufactured

Flow of Costs through a Manufacturer’s Accounts

• Finished Goods Inventory• Beginning inventory+ Cost of goods manufactured= Cost of goods available for sale– Ending inventory= Cost of goods sold

Identify major trends in thebusiness environment, and usecost-benefit analysis to make
