Material cost is Rs. 80/- freight cartidge Rs. 20/- and
Labour expnese Rs. 30/- the total production expenses will
be Rs. 130/- and the freight and labour expenses will be
considered as Direct Expenses. The Formula for GP (Gross
Profit is Opening stock + Purchase -Sale+Closing Stock-
Direct Expnese = GP, then for NP GP+Indirect Income -
indirect Expneses = NP, then it will be distributed between
partners to affect their Capital Value.
INDIRECT EXPNESES : After finished product is ready, the
cost of ADVERTISING and Business Promotion expenses for
that product will be add up in Indirect Expnese. other
