    Yes. Use one question for every item: does it make financial profit higher or lower than costing profit? Starting from costing profit: - Makes financial profit higher: ADD - Makes financial profit lower: LESS Add: - Over-absorbed overheads in cost books - Income only in financial books (interest, dividend, rent received) - Notional expenses only in cost books (notional rent or interest) Less: - Under-absorbed overheads - Expenses only in financial books (fines, loss on sale of asset, goodwill written off) Stock: higher closing stock means higher profit; higher opening stock means lower profit. If you start from financial profit, reverse every sign.

Why do cost and financial profits differ?

Some items appear only in financial books, some notional items appear only in cost books, overheads may be over- or under-absorbed, and stock may be valued differently.

Is over-absorbed overhead added or deducted when starting from costing profit?

It is added, because cost books charged more overhead than actual, so financial profit is higher.

How is stock valuation difference treated?

A higher closing stock value in financial books raises financial profit, while a higher opening stock value lowers it.
