Quick Question regarding normal loss and abnormal loss. If a scrap value is indicated, then you enter this in to the account. My question stated that ALL losses can be sold for scrap, therefore for the abnormal loss do I calculate the scrap value or the full value? I then need to prepare accounts for Normal loss/scrap account, and Abnormal Loss. I'm lost.

    Abnormal loss is calculated at full cost the scrap value is taken into account in the abnormal loss 't' account. Loss from the abnormal loss is reported to the P&L account.
