Finished Product Cost = AED Forty Five
Finished Product Selling Price = AED Sixty Five
Raw Material Cost = AED Ten
Raw Material NRV = AED Seven
Now as Per IAS2
"Materials and other supplies held for use in the production of inventories are not written down below cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost."
As Finished Product is expected to be sold above its cost price, we will record Raw Material at Cost i.e., AED Ten.
TEN is the answer for this question.
As per IAS -2 There is an exception to the basic rule "inventory should be valued at lower of cost or NRV"
The exception is given below:
IAS - Two.Thirty Two2.
Materials and other supplies held for use in the production of inventories are not written down below cost if the finished products in which they will be incorporated are expected to be sold at or above cost.
So in this scenario R would be recorded at cost which is AED ten.
According to IAS2, inventory should be valued at lower of cost or NRV. In this case, "R" should be valued at AED7 for financial reporting purposes.
It depends on the accounting method, and the company's particular policies within the context of that method.
Or, to put it another way, what do you want it to be?
