How is carriage inwards treated in the final accounts?

Carriage inwards, which refers to the transportation costs incurred when goods are purchased and delivered to a business, is treated as an expense in the final accounts. It is typically added to the cost of goods sold in the trading account, thereby increasing the total cost of inventory. This treatment ensures that the true cost of acquiring inventory is reflected in the financial statements, ultimately impacting the gross profit calculation. In the profit and loss account, it is not shown as a separate line item but is included in the overall cost of sales.

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.
