AS 2 is applicable for presentation & disclosures in financials. But these methods are useful for internal analysis like arriving at cost of your product etc
Ultimately how u disclose in balance sheet that is very essential.
But internal analysis is also very much essential and important to arrive at your cost & thereby to arrive at a selling price which makes sense. Financials are end results but to get there you need to have a plan which is based on these internal analyses and projections.
