(a) Or In determining the cost of inventories, it is appropriate to exclude certain costs and recognise them as expenses in the period in which they are incurred. Examples of such costs are: (a) Abnormal amounts of wasted materials, labour, or other production costs; (b) Storage costs, unless the production process requires such storage. (c) Administrative overheads that do not contribute to bringing the inventories to their present location and condition; (d) Selling and distribution costs.
