As per AS 2 Inventory should be valued at lower of cost or net realisable value. Now as per AS 2 Inventories include WIP. cost of WIP u know and NRV = saleable value - estimated amount of expenses that will be required for completion of product....

You have to arrive at the Cost of WIP by taking in the Direct Expenses and your production overhead. While apportioning your overheads to WIP, you will need to calculate equivalent units to arrive at a common unit measure.

What industry may i know?

Friends ..kindly let me know the detailed procedure of valuation of WIP under IFRS and also highlight how it is diferent from valuation done in AS?
