Question

The following information is given for the activity of the accounts of the company "PLIADES" during the cost period from 1/1 – 30/6. Initial stock (r.a.) of direct materials = 5100, n.a. of semi-finished products = 6200, n.a. of finished products = 7700. During the period, purchases of materials worth 29,000 were made in cash. The cost of direct labor was 58000. The charging rate of the CBS was 25% of the cost of direct labour.  Sales totaled 198,000, before returns were 1.5% of sales. Sales were made as follows: 1/3 with promissory notes, 1/3 cash and 1/3 with credit. The promissory notes incurred interest worth 1400 euros. The final stocks were: direct materials = 4500, semi-finished products = 3900 and finished products = 6800. The company's expenses during the above period were: depreciation = 1500, exhibition expenses = 800, factory insurance premiums = 650, administrative employees' fees=22000, depreciation of factory machinery = 1400, rent=6500, salesmen's travel expenses = 1500, factory warden salaries = 2200, cleaning costs = 450, subscriptions = 150, maintenance costs = 320, indirect production materials = 750, factory maintenance costs = 1100, advertising costs = 5100,  salaries of salesmen = 10000, utility costs = 4800, sample costs = 650, indirect work = 3600, interest debit & related financial expenses = 750, foreman salaries = 4100, other promotion costs = 390, lawyers' fee = 10000, accountants' fee = 11000, miscellaneous production consumables = 900. If there is a difference in the allocation of the NGS, the adjustment should be made to the cost of goods sold.
