Protect Your Factory Margins
Manufacturing in Zambia presents unique inventory and margin challenges. Without proper cost allocation, direct labor calculations, and overhead absorption, you might be selling products at a loss without realizing it.
Our CA-led team builds customized cost sheets and bookkeeping workflows to track your material conversions. We help you determine exact cost-of-goods-sold (COGS) so you can price confidently and protect your liquidity.
- Full absorption costing setup
- BOM template design & tracking
- ZRA Smart Invoice audit matching
What We Manage For You
We establish complete, CA-managed accounting workflows built specifically around raw materials and plant floors.
Custom Chart of Accounts
Designed specifically around manufacturing entities, segregating raw material inventory, work-in-progress, finished goods, and direct vs. indirect factory labor.
BOM & Absorption Costing
We build templates for your Bill of Materials (BOM) and structure absorption costing frameworks, allowing you to allocate factory overheads accurately.
Margin & Cash Dashboards
Get crystal-clear views on gross margin by product line, material usage variances, and your Cash Conversion Cycle (CCC) to prevent working capital locks.
ZRA Smart Invoice Alignment
Ensure your inventory releases and sales invoices match the Zambia Revenue Authority (ZRA) Smart Invoice requirements, keeping your VAT returns clean.
Payroll & Statutory Compliance
Full payroll management with precise PAYE filings, NAPSA submissions, and NHIMA compliance, protecting you from audit penalties.
Quarterly Margin Advisory
Strategic quarterly meetings with a Chartered Accountant to review pricing formulas, overhead break-even points, and working capital requirements.
Why Standard Bookkeeping Fails Manufacturers
Standard bookkeepers only record bank transactions. They do not know how to handle work-in-progress inventory or factory waste variances. With Resolved Books, you get active, manufacturing-trained account managers overseen by a Chartered Accountant, ensuring your costing systems reflect your actual floor operations.
