 QUESTION 2: PRODUCTION COST STATEMENT, GROSS PROFIT AND
             UNIT COSTS                 (60 marks, 45 minutes)

 Current Ltd builds inverters to sell to households and small businesses
 throughout Africa. The financial year ends on 30 June 2025.

 REQUIRED:

 2.1     Calculate the cost of the imported raw materials. (adjustment 5)               (3)

 2.2     Prepare the following:

         2.2.1   Production cost statement for the year ending 30 June 2025.

         2.2.2   Notes:
                  Direct material costs                                                (10)
                  Factory overhead cost                                                (11)
                  Cost of finished goods sold.                                         (4)

 2.3     Calculate the gross profit for the year ending 30 June 2025.                   (3)

 2.4     Calculate the following:

         2.4.1   The unit cost of each inverter; rounded to the nearest rand.           (3)

         2.4.2   The selling price of each inverter.                                    (3)

         2.4.3   Calculate the break-even point and comment on it.                      (7)

 2.5     Give TWO reasons why you would advise Current Ltd to support local
         suppliers.                                                                     (2)

 2.6     The owner of Current Ltd. is not satisfied with the profit he is making.
         Currently there is an enormous demand for inverters in the country which
         the industry cannot supply.

         The owner found an alternative supplier of raw materials for the
         manufacturing of the inverters. This supplier is much cheaper, but they
         are not approved by the Electricity Board as the safety of the material
         cannot be guaranteed. The owner calculated that he would be able to
         cut his direct material costs by around 40% by using the alternative
         material. Since the demand is so high and people will buy whatever they
         can find, he decided to take this option. Do you agree with him? Explain
         the possible implications of his decision on his business.                     (2)

          first in first out (FIFO), perpetual inventory system; periodic inventory
             system, weighted average method; specific identification method

                  are purchased in bulk.

                  value to each inventory item.

                  date.                                                                   (3)

         3.2.5    The owner feels that it is better for the business to use the
