how to calculate closing stock?

Answer Posted / h.r. sreepada bhagi

Calculation of Book Stock (Trading Company):
Opening Stock + Purchases - Purchase Returns - Cost of Goods
Sold = Closing Stock.

Calculation of Book Stock (Manufacturing Company):
Opening Stock + Purchases - Purchase Returns - Cost of
Materials used in manufacture = Closing Stock.

For finalisation of accounts & audit at the year end, take
physical stock & value it by applying unit rate to stock
quantity at cost or realisable value whichever is lower.

Generally there will be difference between the book value &
physical stock value & physical stock value arrived as above
should be taken in to P&L A/c & Balance Sheet.
