Hi,

There is a concern who is involved in the activity of Manufacturing.

It purchases raw material which is an excisable raw material and also liable to VAT.

It process the said raw material and manufactures finished goods. The said finished goods are also excisable and also liable to VAT.

For the purpose of valuation of inventory i am a little confused about the Value to be considered for valuation of inventory.

The Main confusion is regarding the Excise & VAT Factor which needs to be either to be considered / ignored for valuation of inventory. And if the answere to the said question is in affirmative, "To what extent?"

Thanks.

excise duty on closing inventory is to be added to cost of inventory as manufacturing expenses....... no relevancy of vat treatment for the purpose of valuation of inventory

Thats ok But by what way will you add the Excise Duty. I mean, Would it be the Excise Duty already paid in the Raw Materials or would it be Excise Duty which is actually payable on Finished Stock after deduction of Excise Credit on Raw Material purchased.

I am very confused as there are lot of different valuation calculations are going on in the mind.
