Solution:

To calculate the dyeing cost in textile sector, the following formula have to maintained:

Dyeing cost per kg,

   Direct materials (D.M) + Direct labor (D.L) + Direct expense (D.E) + Overhead
= ………………………………………………………………………………………….…             ….. (1)

                                                 Total dyeing production

Total Dyeing Production Calculation:
Total production
= Fabric input
= 400kg

Total Production Time Calculation:
 
Total production calculation,
= Process time
= 16hrs
= (16/8) shift
= 2 shift

Direct Material Cost (D.M) Calculation:
Dye A cost = Amount of dye × Dye price = 5×Rs. 250 = Rs. 1250
Dye B cost = Amount of dye × Dye price = 3×Rs. 300 = Rs. 900

Dye C cost = Amount of dye × Dye price = 2×Rs. 400 = Rs. 800

Chemical A cost = Amount of chemical × Chemical price = 50×Rs. 5 = Rs. 250

Chemical B cost = Amount of chemical × Chemical price = 30×Rs. 50 = Rs. 1500

So,
Dyeing material cost stands at,
= Rs. 1250 + Rs. 900 + Rs. 800 + Rs. 250 + Rs. 1500

= Rs. 4700

Direct Labor Cost (D.L) Calculation:
Operator wages,
= No. of labor × No. of shift × labor wage per shift
= 4×2×Rs. 200

= Rs. 1600

Direct Expense Cost (D.E) Calculation:

Direct expense = 0

Overheads Cost Calculation:

In case of steam,

= {(Cost × 2 shifts)/ (30days × 3 shifts in a day)} = {(75000×2)/90} = Rs. 1667

In case of transport,

= {(Cost × 2 shifts)/ (30days × 3 shifts in a day)} = {(20000×2)/90} = Rs. 445

In case of power,

= {(Cost × 2 shifts)/ (30days × 3 shifts in a day)} = {(50000×2)/90} = Rs. 1112

In case of salary,

= {(Cost × 2 shifts)/ (30days × 3 shifts in a day)} = {(100000×2)/90} = Rs. 2224

In case of other expenses,

= {(Cost × 2 shifts)/ (30days × 3 shifts in a day)} = {(120000×2)/90} = Rs. 2667

So,
Total overheads,
= Rs. 1667 + Rs. 1112 + Rs. 445 + Rs. 2224 + Rs. 2667

= Rs. 8115

Now, from equation (1), we get,

Dyeing cost per kg,
= {(4700+ 1600+ 0+ 8115)/400}

= Rs. 36.00

After adding 20% profit, dyeing rate stands at
= {36/ (1-20%)}
= Rs. 45.00
