In Fig. 16 _a._ is shown a working balance sheet in which the accounts
as found in the trial balance are segregated in the four groups,
_Manufacturing, Trading, Profit and Loss_, and _Balance Sheet_. First,
the trial balance is entered in the two columns at the left. Next, the
manufacturing account is made up by extending the inventory of material
at end of preceding period, the manufacturing expense accounts, material
purchases and freight on same. This gives the total charges to
manufacturing account, but not the month's expenditures, for the present
inventory of material must be considered. An inventory shows the value
of material in stock to be $4,550.00. Deducting this leaves $12,626.00,
the total operating cost for the month. To find the cost of goods
completed during the month an inventory is taken of work in process, the
amount is deducted from the total operating cost and the result,
$9,126.00, represents cost of goods manufactured.
The trading account is now made up, this $9,126.00 taking the place of
purchases, and the gross profit is carried to profit and loss account.
