Manufacturing & Production SME

SME manufacturing businesses face challenges in Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) calculation involving raw materials, direct labor, and overhead. Without accurate bookkeeping, selling prices and margins are difficult to control. Arunika Consulting helps manufacturing bookkeeping so costing and financial statements are consistent.

What usually goes wrong

  • COGS with Many Components

    Production costs come from various components requiring consistent costing methods.

  • Work in Process (WIP)

    Inaccurate WIP valuation makes financial statements biased and margins inaccurate.

  • Production Waste

    Waste and scrap are often unrecorded so efficiency is difficult to measure.
