Atlas Exports has been profitable but the rate of growth has been declining. It grew by 1% only
from 2017 to 2018 owing to the huge distribution costs and administrative expenses. Their sales
have increased from 2017 to 2018, so has their contribution margin from 29% in 2017 to 31% in
2018. Price variances of direct material and efficiency variance of direct labour cost was
calculated to show their favourableness or unfavourableness relative to the net income.

Analysis of Income Statement
The vertical analysis of the FY 16 shows that the cost of goods sold was 63% of the sales. The
operating profit was about 11% of the sales for the same year. During this year the other
operating incomes for the company were only 1% of sales. Finance costs were almost 0% of
sales. The profit before and after taxation was so slow, that it was 0% of the sales. Additionally,
the total comprehensive income was also 0% of sales for the same respective financial year.
For the FY 17, there was no change in the proportion of cost of goods sold 63% and gross profit
37% as a proportion of sales. The operating profit was 11% of sales. The profit before tax for the
same year was almost 13% as a proportion of sales, which was highest among other two FY 16
and 15, if we compare it to them. This means that the company during this year was despite of
having lower sales than other two years was able to lower the costs of other expenses such as;
administrative and other operating expenses. The profit after taxation and the total
comprehensive income were also 12% of sales respectively. FY 17 was the only year compared
to others where the total comprehensive income as a proportion of sales, was higher than the
other two financial years due to the lowering of certain expenses already mentioned above.
During FY 18 the costs of goods sold was almost 67% of the total sales. The distribution costs
and administrative expenses were 22% and 12% respectively. The operating profit was only 2%
of sales during the same financial year, which was lowest among all three years. Although the
sales figure during FY 18 was highest as compared to FY 16 and 15, but the expenses such as the
distribution costs were way too high. Thus the profits before and after taxation, therefore resulted
into a smaller proportion of sales.

Cost of sales is defined as the sum of opening stock, cost of goods manufactured less the closing
stock. It is one of the components of income statement that shows the profitability of the
companies. Increase in the cost of sales cause’s gross profit margin to fall down hence showing a
decreased net profit. Whereas, decrease in the cost of sales shows a high gross profit margin and
hence an increase net profit. The cost of sales of Atlas Exports has increased by 9.6% from FY
17 to FY 18 whereas it was negatively decreasing by 5.6% from FY 16 to FY 17. This show
Atlas Exports has not been working efficiently to reduce their cost of goods sold and their
production system has caused a drastic increase in their costs. The main reason behind this
change in cost sales in FY 18 as compared to FY 17 is opening and closing stock of finished
goods. The opening stock of finished goods has increased by 13% as compared to last year
where it was only 2%. The closing stock of finished goods was a negative 7% as compared to
last year where it decreased by 70%. The opening balance of work in process inventory has
increased by 18.7% in FY 18 as compared to last year where it increased by 2.5%. The cost of
goods manufactured has increased by 9.6% in FY 17 as compared to last year FY 16 where it
was a negative 5.6%.
Each activity has been assigned with a cost driver depending upon its cost object. We have
assigned labour hours to weighing and mixing because when the raw material arrives, it is
weighed and designated employee notes down the quantity of each batch and inspect its quality,
in addition, proper document is maintained in which weights of each batch are recorded. Labour
hours are assigned to mixing because different raw materials are to be added time to time during
the mixing process which requires labour effort and supervision. Machine hours are assigned to
grinding, filtration, filling and capping, all of these activities require specialized procedures
which are done with the help of specific machines, whereas quantity produced is allocated to
cooling and labelling because both of these activities are done on the basis of final product
produced each day.
The sales of the company declined during FY15 but it increased during FY16.
