At first you have to calculate prime cost by subtracting direct expenses from raw material consumed. Then add the manufacturing or factory overhead like rent, indirect wages, salary, depreciation and that calculates the total manufacturing cost. Then add opening working process and subtract ending working process and that calculates the cost of goods manufactured.
