    There provisions given on this in IAS 2 (Inventories para13). I don`t have knowledge of Cost Accounting yet, but here is what IAS 2 suggests

    Allocation of Fixed overheads should be based on Normal Production Capacity of Plant

    Fixed over heads should not increase in periods of Very Low Production
    Unallocated Fixed Overheads to be Expensed out.

    Uptill here it is all clear however i don`t no what does IAS means to say
    In periods of abnormally high production, the amount of fixed overheads allocated to each unit of production is decreased so that inventories are not measured above cost
