The answer given by Mr. Gupta is absolutely right. As per AS 2 stock is to be valued at cost or NRV. in the given case, cost of stock is 40,000 but it is expected to realise Rs. 16,000. Hence it will be valued at NRV. now, to find the normal stock on date of fire, follow the rule " REMOVE ABNORMAL ITEMS WHEREVER INCLUDED AND AT WHATEVER PRICE INCLUDED". So from debit side of trading A/c reduce Rs. 40,000 from opening stock and from cl. stock reduce Rs. 16,000 if abnormal item is included in closing stock at valuation But if abnormal item is included in cl. stock at cost then u need to deduct Rs. 40,000 following the abovementioned rule.
