Cost of goods produced in 1C:Drive

Question: How is the cost of goods produced calculated in 1C:Drive? How can I learn the projected and actual cost of goods produced?

Answer:

1C:Drive is being improved constantly, below information is actual as of 1C:Drive version 1.3.14.5.

In 1C:Drive, only projected cost of components we see is in the Sales order document, upon clicking the button “+ Profit estimation”.

In the “Cost of goods produced” report, two types of cost of a produced commodity is shown: 1-Components, elements of the products catalog, which go in the bill of materials of the finished product, whose cost is determined by the Purchase invoice document. Cost of component is real. 2-Operations, whose cost is determined by the Manufacturing overhead rates document. The rate given with this document is calculated from the regular monthly expenses on production, such as wages, electricity, cost of equipment, taxes etc. This rate is not actual, it is projected. So, in this report we see a mix of actual (component costs) and projected (operation costs).

The real operation cost of goods sold (COGS) is kept in the accounting register only. Take note that the default chart of GL accounts only have the cost of goods sold account, and not the cost of goods produced. In the Trial Balance report, if we drill down into the 6040000 Manufacturing overheads account by recorder, we see that all projected sums are recorded by Work in progress documents, while all the actual sums are recorded by other documents such as Tax accrual (land tax), Expense claim (business trip expenses of our manager), Supplier invoice (electricity bill), Settlements and other costs (payroll payable) etc. At the end of each month, the Month end closing document makes a record so that the sum of Debit and sum of Credit flows of the month in the account become equal to each other. So, decreased sum of the record made by the Month end closing document means increased accuracy of cost projection.
