The Schedule of Cost of Goods Manufactured is helpful in calculating the cost of goods manufactured. The schedule sounds complex and intimidating, but it is nothing more than a restatement of the Work in Process Inventory account. To prepare the schedule, begin with the total manufacturing costs incurred during the period — direct materials used in production, direct labor incurred, and manufacturing overhead applied. To that total, add the beginning balance in the Work in Process Inventory account. Finally, subtract the ending balance in the Work in Process Inventory account. The remaining amount is the cost of goods manufactured. Its relationship to the income statement is that the cost of goods manufactured is used in the calculation of Cost of Goods Sold That is, add cost of goods manufactured to beginning Finished Goods and deduct ending Finished Goods to determine Cost of Goods Sold. The relationship to the balance sheet is that calculating cost of goods manufactured requires adding beginning Work in Process inventory and deducting ending Work in Process inventory. Ending inventories for Raw Materials, Work in Process, and Finished Goods all appear as current assets on the balance sheet.
