Yes,

 

you should take sales promotions exp & selling cost Overheads for calcualting Finished Goods.

Even though ur IPCC are over now, you may not need the answer now...

Nevertheless, Answer is NO, you shouldn't 

Finished goods are calcuated either on factory cost or cash cost of goods sold..

D. Material + D. Labour + D.Expenses + Factory OHD = Factory cost

and 

Factory cost + Administration OHD = Cash cost of goods sold

&

Cash cost of goods sold + selling OHD = cost of sales  and not cost of finished goods

I Agree wity Mr Kumar.

 

Thanks.
