Quick Summary
This discussion explains the accounting treatment for inventory valuation under AS 2, focusing on valuing items at the lower of cost and net realisable value. It provides guidance on valuing raw materials based on purchase invoices, work-in-progress using the Cost of Goods Manufactured (COGM) ledger, and finished goods derived from COGM. Closing inventory will encompass all three categories.

1. Value of raw material as per purchased invoices because all valuation is done on rupee basis and not on quantity.

2. WIP - follow the COGM ledger for a better understanding of how opening wip + overheads + finished stock + waste is allocated. You can get that info from Corporate finance institute on Google. 

3. From COGM only you can find the cost of finished goods. 

When it comes to reporting, closing inventory includes, all three costs.
