Materials used 150000
Direct wages 120000
Factory overhead expenses 24,000
Office expenses 17640
Prepare a Cost Sheet of the machines and calculate the price which the company should
quote for the manufacture of a machine requiring materials valued at Rs 1,250 and
expenditure on productive wages of Rs 750, so that the price may yield a profit of 20% on
the selling price. For the purpose of price quotation, charge factory overhead as a
percentage of direct wages and charge office overhead as a percentage of works cost .
Problem 7
A factory produced and sold 1000 units of a product in July 2019 for which the

As from January 01, 2020, the selling price was reduced to Rs. 4.50 per unit. It was
estimated that the production could be increased in 2020 by 50 percent without incurring
any overtime or extra shift.
Prepare statements showing different element of cost for 2019 and estimated cost and
profit for 2020 assuming that 1,50,000 units will be produced and sold in the year. State
the assumption made to solve the problem.
