An abnormal loss refers to a situation where a business or firm is making profits below the normal limits. In an abnormal loss situation the total revenue of a business does not cover total cost incurred for the business. If abnormal losses persist in a firm or business, it will threaten the property of the firm or the business.

Generally, an abnormal loss occurs because of negligence, carelessness, theft, mischief, fraud of employees, or inefficiency. Some of the examples of abnormal loss are destruction of goods by fire, theft, breakage, or loss of goods because of mishandling

Its the result of actual output minus normal loss. For Eg. if a manufacturing firm estimates an 5% as normal loss of their shift production, then in a Shift for an output of 100 units, 5 units will be the normal loss. So if in any case if the actual output is less than the 95 units, it will be resulted in abnormal loss and if actual output exceeds expected output then it results into an abnormal gain i.e. anything more than output of 95 units. While calculating the cost per unit, normal loss is usually adjusts to the actual output, whereas abnormal loss is charged to Cost of goods sold account.
