Working 1 (W1):
Closing provision for unrealized profit
= (Factory profit / cost of production at transfer price) X Closing inventory transfer price
= (108224 / 649344) X 15750 = $2 625
Closing provision for unrealized profit
= Closing inventory transfer price – closing inventory cost price
= 15 750 – 13 125 = $2 625
Closing inventory cost price = Closing inventory transfer price / (1 + Mark-up)
= 15750 / (1 + 0.2)
= 15750 / 1.2
= $13125

Transfer price is the price of the goods calculated in the manufacturing account and
transferred to the income statement. The transfer price includes an additional
percentage for factory profit and this is included in the inventory of finished goods
as unrealized profit.
Cost of production per unit at cost price = 541 120 / 10 000 = $54.11
Cost of production per unit at transfer price = 649 344 / 10 000 = $64.93
The cost of production at transfer price includes an element of factory profit. The
offer price by the supplier of $60 is greater than the cost of production at cost price
of $54.11. The business is able to produce the goods at a lower price compared to
buying it from another supplier. The business should not buy from the supplier but
instead should produce the goods. If there is an additional demand the business is
not able to produce the additional goods, then only it can by from the supplier. In
addition buying from the supplier might result in inferior quality goods being
obtained and delay in delivery of goods by the supplier.
