When Net Sales exceeds the Cost of Sales then there is Gross Profit. However, if the Cost of Sales exceeds the Net Sale(Sales less Return Inwards) then there is Gross loss. A Manufacturing Account is part of the Final accounts drawn by a manufacturing entity before drawing the Trading Account. Since the firm is engaged in the manufacturing or converting of raw materials to finished goods,they express the monetary value of Prime Cost(Direct Materials + Direct Labour + Direct Expense) and Overheads( Sum of all Indirect cost) to determine the cost of Production.

Why don't add freight inward into gross profit account?

You do..? Freight Inwards should be included in the costs of goods sold, as it is a direct cost in getting your goods ready for sale.
