Approach. A manufacturing concern prepares three linked accounts: the Manufacturing Account (to find cost of production), the Trading Account (to find gross profit on finished goods), and the Profit and Loss Account (to find net profit). Manufacturing wages must include the accrual, and work-in-progress is adjusted inside the manufacturing account.
