 = 16,181 kg. 
(iii) (b) Calculation of Maximum Stock level: Since, the Material A is 
perishable in nature and it required to be used within 10 days, 
hence, the Maximum Stock Level shall be lower of two: 
(a) Stock equal to 10 days consumption

× 10 ???????? ????????  = 12,000 kg. 
(b)  Maximum Stock Level for Material A: 
 Re-order Quantity + Re-order level – (Min consumption* ×  
      Min. lead time) 
 Where, Re-order Quantity = 15,000 kg.  
 Re-order level    = Max. Consumption* × Max. Lead  
        time 
         = 30,000/25×2 days=2,400 kg. 
 Maximum stock Level  = 15,000 kg. + 2,400 kg. -  
         (30,000/25  × 1 day) 
         = 17,400 – 1,200 = 16,200 kg. 
 Stock required for 10 days consumption is lower than the maximum 
stock level calculated through the formula. Therefore, Maximum 
Stock Level will be 12,000 kg.

2×( 2 0, 0 0 0× 1 2)× 1, 2 0 0
5 % ???? ???? 4 4
 = 16,181 kg. 
(iii) (b) Calculation of Maximum Stock level: Since, the Material A is 
perishable in nature and it required to be used within 10 days, 
hence, the Maximum Stock Level shall be lower of two: 
(a) Stock equal to 10 days consumption 
 =
3 0 0 0 0
2 5
× 10 ???????? ????????  = 12,000 kg. 
(b)  Maximum Stock Level for Material A: 
 Re-order Quantity + Re-order level – (Min consumption* ×  
      Min. lead time) 
 Where, Re-order Quantity = 15,000 kg.  
 Re-order level    = Max. Consumption* × Max. Lead  
        time 
         = 30,000/25×2 days=2,400 kg. 
 Maximum stock Level  = 15,000 kg. + 2,400 kg. -  
         (30,000/25  × 1 day) 
         = 17,400 – 1,200 = 16,200 kg. 
 Stock required for 10 days consumption is lower than the maximum 
stock level calculated through the formula. Therefore, Maximum 
Stock Level will be 12,000 kg.

 (*Since, production is processed evenly throughout the month 
hence material consumption will also be even.) 
(iv) (b) Calculation of Savings/ loss in Material A if purchase quantity

 Purchasing of material - A at present policy of 15,000 kg. saves  
` 3,21,201. 
 Notes: (i) Since, material gets obsolete after 10 days, the quantity 
in excess of 10 days consumption i.e. 12,000 kg. are wasted. 
Hence, after 12,000 kg. a fresh order needs to be given. 
(ii)  Carrying cost is incurred on average stock of Materials 
purchased.  
(iii)  the excess quantity of material gets obsolete and loss has to 
be incurred.  
(v)  (c) Minimum Stock Level for Material A 
 = Re-order level – (Average Consumption Rate x Average Re-order 
Period) 
= 2400 – (1200 x 1.5)  = 600 kgs 
Re-order level   = Max. Consumption* × Max. Lead time 
   = 30,000/25 × 2 days = 2,400 kg.

As, 40% of the over absorbed overheads were due to defective 
production policies, this being abnormal, hence should be credited 
to Costing Profit and Loss Account. 
 Amount to be credited to Costing Profit and Loss Account  
= `1,18,000× 40% = `47,200. 
 Balance of over absorbed production overheads should be 
distributed over Works in progress, Finished goods and Cost of 
sales by applying supplementary rate*. 
 Amount to be distributed = `1,18,000× 60% =  `70,800

5.  (a) Variable overhead cost variance: Standard Variable overheads - Actual

6.  (c) Equivalent Units:
