Option 1 is correct

manufactuing cost of work order is Rs 1000,8% of the production against that the order spoiled and rejection is estimated to have a realisable value of Rs  20 only .The normal rate of spoilage is 2% ..Record this entry in cost books 

1st one is right one

Normal spoilage @ 2% is part of production cost.

Rest 6% abnormal loss is debited to P&L (net of realizable value)
