COSTING

What is COST..?

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

The main object of costing is to ascertain the cost of each product, process, department, services or operation. The ascertainment of cost involves

further study, analysis and classification of cost.


Cost analysis is break-up of total cost into certain elements or sub-division. Cost may be classified into different categories depending upon the purpose of

their classification
1. 2. 3. Classification by nature Functional Classification Classification on basis of behavior

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

Cost is a resource sacrificed or forgone to achieve a specific objective. An actual cost is the cost incurred (a historical cost) as distinguished from budgeted costs. A cost object is anything for which a separate measurement of costs is desired.

In a bicycles a handlebar Of 52/- each is used. What is the total handlebar cost when 1,000 bicycles are assembled?

What is variable cost?

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

1,000 units 52/- = 52,000/What is the total handlebar cost when 3,500 bicycles are assembled? 3,500 units 52/- = 182,000/-

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

Variable Cost
Variable Cost is the cost that vary almost in direct proportion to the volume of production.
Example are direct material, labor and expenses Also variable cost increases as the volume of production increases

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

Fixed Cost
Bicycles incurred 94,500/- in a given year for the leasing of its plant. This is an example of fixed costs with respect to the number of bicycles assembled.

Fixed Cost
What is the leasing (fixed) cost per bicycle when Bicycles assembles 1,000 bicycles?

94,500 1,000 = 94.50/What is the leasing (fixed) cost per bicycle when Bicycles assembles 3,500 bicycles?

94,500 3,500 = 27/12

What is COSTSHEET..?

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

Cost sheet is a statement, which shows various components of total cost of a product. Cost Sheet is a document which provides for the assembly of the estimated detailed cost in respect of a cost centre or a cost unit.

It indicates break up of total cost It calculates the total cost and cost per unit of the units produced It facilitates comparison It helps the management in fixing selling price It acts as a guide to the management and helps in formulating production policy It enable to keep control over cost of production

Marginal Costing

17

What is Marginal Costing

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

Marginal Cost is the amount of any given volume of output


by which aggregate costs are changed if the volume of output is increased by one unit. whereas

Marginal costing is the ascertainment of marginal costs and

of the effect on profit of changes in volume or type of output by differentiating between fixed cost and variable cost Also known as CVP analysis

18

Assumptions of Marginal Costing

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

1. Changes in the level of revenues and costs arise only because of changes in the number of product (or service) units produced and sold. 2. Total costs can be divided into a fixed component and a component that is variable with respect to the level of output.

19

Assumptions of Marginal Costing

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

3. When graphed, the behavior of total revenues and total costs is linear (straight-line) in relation to output units within the relevant range (and time period). 4. The unit selling price, unit variable costs, and fixed costs are known and constant.

20

Assumptions of Marginal Costing

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

5. The analysis either covers a single product or assumes that the sales mix when multiple products are sold will remain constant as the level of total units sold changes. 6. All revenues and costs can be added and compared without taking into account the time value of money.
21

Assumptions of Marginal Costing

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

Operating income = Total revenues from operations Cost of goods sold and operating costs (excluding income taxes) Net income = Operating income Income taxes

22

1.What is Contribution?

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

Contribution is the difference between sales and variable cost. It may be defined as excess of selling price over variable

cost

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

There are three managerial Functions Planning

Directing

What is budget
WHAT IS A BUDGET? A plan expressed in money.

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

It is prepared and approved prior to the

budget period and may show income, expenditure and the capital to be employed. May be drawn up showing incremental effects on former budgeted or actual figures, or be compiled by Zero-based budgeting. Budget is a a a a a a plan of operations. basis for allocating resources. communication and authorization device. device for motivating and guiding implementation. guideline for operations and gauge for controlling operations. basis for performance evaluation.

Budgetary control

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

Budgetary control is the use of the comprehensive system of budgeting to aid management in carrying out its functions like planning, coordination and control. This system involves: Division of organization on functional basis into different sections known as a budget centre.

Preparation of separate budgets for each budget centre.


Consolidation of all functional budgets to present overall organizational objectives during the forthcoming budget period.

Comparison of actual level of performance against budgets.


Reporting the variances with proper analysis to provide basis for future course of action.

Fixed Budget This

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

is defined as a budget which is designed to remain unchanged

irrespective of the volume of output or turnover attained. This budget will, therefore, be useful only when the actual level of activity corresponds to the budgeted level of activity.

This budget is suitable under static conditions

33

What is Flexible Budget?


Flexible Budget

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

CIMA defines this budget as one which, by recognizing the difference in behavior between fixed and variable costs in relation to fluctuations in output, turnover or other variable factors such as number of employees, is designed to change appropriately with such fluctuations. Therefore a flexible budget consist of budget for different level of activity. It varies with the level of activity attained. This budget is useful where activity level changes from time to time.

34

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

Following information are given to you at 50% (5000 units) capacity level. Prepare a flexible budget and forecast profit at 60%, 70% and 90% capacity. Material per unit=50/Labor per unit=20/-

Sales Budget

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

A sales budget is a estimate of expected sales during a budgeted period. Sales budget is the starting point of the

budgeting system. A sales budget shows expected sales in


units at their expected selling prices A firm prepares the sales budget for a period based on the

forecasted sales level, production capacity for the budget


period, and long-term plan and short-term goal of the firm A sales budget is the cornerstone of budget preparation because a firm can complete the plan for other activities only after it identifies the expected sales level

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

The production budget is prepared in relation to the sales

budget. It Shows the units that must be produced to meet


anticipated sales. It is derived from the budgeted sales units (per sales budget)

plus the desired ending finished goods less the beginning


finished goods units. The production requirement formula is:
Determining the budgeted units of production: Budgeted Production (in units) Budgeted Sales (in units) Desired Ending Inventory (in units) Beginning Inventory (in units)

1. Prepare Production budget for each month for the six month ending, 31st dec 2010.The units sold for different month are as follows July 1100 units Sep 1700 Nov 2500 Aug 1100 units Oct - 1900 Dec 2300 Jan 2011- 2000

Note There is no WIP at the end of any month Finished goods equal to half the sales for next month will be in stock at the

end of each month

44

Material Budget

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

The information in the production budget becomes the basis for preparing several manufacturing-related budgets

A direct materials usage budget shows the direct materials required for
production and their budgeted cost

Total direct Desired direct materials + materials needed in ending inventory production

Total direct materials purchase for the period

Direct materials beginning inventory

45

Material Budget

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

Raw material budget can also be calculated by multiplying the rate of consumption of raw material with the units to be produced

The purchase department will be able to plan the purchase of raw material with the help of raw material budget

Raw material budget also enables the fixation of minimum stock level,

maximum stock level and reorder level.


The budgeted cost of raw material can be determined with this budget Two type of budget is prepared under this, estimate of different type of raw material, and procurement of raw material budget.

46

Factors effecting Material Budget

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

1. Raw material required for the budgeted output

2. %age of raw material to total cost of the product.


3. Companys stocking policy

4. Time lag between placing of the orders


5. The seasonal nature in the availability of raw materials

6. Price trend in the market

47

Direct labour budget

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

To prepare the direct labor budget, a company would use Its production budget The direct labor budget enables the personnel department to plan for hiring and repositioning of employees

A good labor budget helps the firm to avoid emergency hiring, prevent labor shortages, and reduce or eliminate the need to lay off workers Firms usually prepare labor budget for each type of labors. For example, for each skill requirement.

Factory O.H Budget,

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

A factory overhead budget often includes all production costs other than direct materials and direct labor

Unlike direct materials and direct labor, manufacturing overhead costs include costs that vary in direct proportion with the units manufactured as well as costs that vary with either the kind of facilities the firm has or the way in which the firm carries out it operations

55

ZBB

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

The zero base budgeting is not based on the incremental approach and previous figures are not adopted as the base.

Zero is taken as the base and a budget is developed on the basis of likely
activities for the future period.

A unique feature of ZBB is that it tries to help management answer the question, Suppose we are to start our business from scratch, on what activities would we spent out money and to what activities would we give the highest priority?

ZBB is most appropriate in controlling the staff and support areas. This budget focuses on reviewing activity utilization. Funds required for each activity should be justified

56

ZBB

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

Zero Based Budgeting implies that managers need to build a budget from the ground up, building a case for their spending as if no baseline existedto start at zero

the purpose of ZBB is to reevaluate and reexamine all programs and expenditures for each budgeting cycle

57

Application of ZBB

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

Practical application of ZBB involves the use of the Decision Package. All budgetary procedures involve an identification of organizational objectives. In the context of these objectives, ZBB involves three stages:

1. Identification of decision units.

2. Development of decision package.


3. Review and ranking of decision packages.

58

Application of ZBB
Identification of decision units.

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

The existing organization structure identifies the units in the hierarchy for

which budgets are prepared. These could responsibility centers, cost


centers, profit centers, investment centers, program categories or program elements. This is the starting point for identifying decision units for ZBB. Decision units should have the following characteristics:

1.

A specific manager should be clearly responsible for the operation of the program

2. 3.

It must have well defined & measurable impacts It must have well defined & measurable objectives

59

Application of ZBB
Development of Decision Package

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

A. The mutually exclusive decision package; the purpose here is to identify for

each decision unit the alternative ways of performing its functions so as to


enable management to choose the best alternative. One such alternative will be to abolish the decision unit which is not performing it functions at all.

B. The incremental decision package; Here, each manager identifies different levels of effort ( and associated costs ) and their impact on the function. i.e.

there will be a Minimum Level, below which it would be impossible to


perform the function; a Base Level, which reflects the current level of activity; and Improvement Level, which shows the effect of increases over the current level.

60

Application of ZBB
Review of Decision Package

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

Once the decision packages have been prepared, they are ranked on an ordinal scale i.e 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc. in order of priority. Due to large number of decision packages, the ranking process would take place at a number of levels

Allotment of Funds to the selected Decision Package

61

Strength of ZBB

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

ZBB unlike incremental traditional line item budget, it dose not assume that last years allocation of resources is necessarily

appropriate for the current year, all the functions of an organization


are re-evaluated annually from a zero base. The systematic nature of such a fundamental review imposes a discipline on the organization which has produced in practice secondary advantages It produces in a readily accessible form more and better management information. This in turn will improve the quality of managements decision Another advantage that stems from this improved management information is that its production involves the participation of lower level management in the budgetary process, and the smaller the

decision units, the greater this involvement will become


62

Strength of ZBB

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

It produces in a readily accessible form more and better management information. This in turn will improve the quality of

managements decision
Improved discipline in developing budgets. More meaningful budget discussions during plan review sessions. More appropriate for activities which are not directly related to production. Opportunity to get a critical appraisal of its activities Focuses on analysis and decision making Optimum allocation of recourses

Motivation and coordination.


63

Weakness of ZBB

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

It produces in a readily accessible form more and better management information. This in turn will improve the quality of

managements decision. In practice the effects of different levels of


effort on each alternative mutually exclusive decision package are not considered, due to the short budgetary cycle and the need for expediency. But this might lead to a sub-optimal allocation of

resources
By incorporating performance measures in the formation of decision packages, it forces managers to establish a preference for

effectiveness, efficiency, or equity as they try to rank decision


packages. This make the ranking process difficult.

64

Weakness of ZBB

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

The implementation of a ZBB system requires a great deal of time on the part of agency staff, limiting their ability to perform other

important functions
Paper work increase a lot Cost of preparing a Zero-Base Budget is very costly May lay more emphasis on short term benefit Cost and Benefit of the packages must be continuously updated to get best result.

65

Performance Budgeting

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

Performance Budgeting is a budget based on functions, activity and


projects. Here input cost is related to the end result and is linked to the performance.

Here the budget is linked to a particular responsibility centre and performance is closely analyzed.

1. 2. 3.

Following matters are clearly mentioned in the budget. Objective of the organization Cost of activity Quantitative measurement to measure performance

4.

Quantity of work to be performed under each activity

66

Steps in Performance Budgeting


Establishment of well defined responsibility centre.

All About ACCOUNTING..!!

A program of expected performance in physical units of that centre. A forecast of expenditure under various classification head to meet physical plan.

Lastly evaluating performance under two stages

1. Actual performance is compared with physical target in order to determine the variance and adjusting the original rupee budget into a budget allowance for actual production 2. Actual expenditure is compared with actual result Performance reporting is prepared.
