Once total additional §263A costs are identified, next step in costing
inventory is to allocate these costs
Direct capitalized costs:
Associated with specific production activities and products and
allocated to them accordingly
Taxpayer may use any method which reasonably allocates such costs
Indirect costs allocated to activities and products using one of three
methods:
a)
Specific identification (costs are specifically identified with activities
or products that directly benefit from the costs)
b)
Standard costing (costs are allocated to products based upon
established standards)
c)
Burden rates (costs are allocated based on direct labor hours, direct
labor costs, and similar expenses)

May elect to use to allocate costs under §263A
Fully capitalize costs for:
1. Off-site storage and warehousing
2. Purchasing
3. Handling, processing, assembly
Amount of mixed service costs (general and
administrative costs) allocated requires two steps:
1. Determine amount of mixed service costs that are
additional §263A costs
2. Allocate this amount to ending inventory
Chapter 13, Exhibit 34a

Amount of mixed service costs included under §263A is
determined by multiplying such costs by ratio of:
1. Total labor costs included in off-site, storage,
purchasing, and handling cost to
2.Total labor costs incurred in taxpayer’s business,
excluding the labor included in the mixed service costs
Once amount is determined, then allocated to ending
inventory by multiplying amount in ending inventory that
was purchased during year by the ratio of
1. Total additional §263A costs to
2.Taxpayer’s total purchases during year
Chapter 13, Exhibit 34b

X Co. uses FIFO for its inventory. During the year it incurred:
Storage costs = $200,000,
Purchasing costs = $300,000, and
Handling and processing costs = $100,000
Labor costs included in amounts above = $180,000
Mixed service costs = $250,000
Total labor costs, excluding amounts included in mixed service costs = $2,000,000
•
X’s beginning inventory (excluding additional Code Sec. 263A costs) = $1,000,000
