Cambridge IGCSE Accounting(0452)/O Level Principles of Accounts(7110) Notes: The structure of Manufacturing Accounts
- In the other post we introduced you to manufacturing accounts
- In this post we will look at typical formats of manufacturing accounts
- This is not to say there are different formats, no
- We are merely going to present a simple manufacturing account
- Followed by one that incorporates the idea of work in progress
- Finally we will look at the issue of manufacturing profit and loss
- We will not use figures at this point as the goal is to familiarize you with the format manufacturing accounts

NB
- These is just a typical template if items shown here are not in the question then you can omit them altogether. For example in the first year of manufacturing there is no opening stock of raw materials so don’t show an empty line simply omit the entire raw materials. You can also omit Import duty where there is no import duty.
- This is a simple manufacturing account where there is no work in progress.
- You can also add or remove overhead costs depending with the question

NB:
- The last layout is more complicated but it shows the portion of gross profit that is attributable to manufacturing and the one attributable to the business’s trading activities.
- It is is unlikely you will encounter a question involving manufacturing profits as it will lead to a host of other issues that are beyond the scope of Ordinary level
