Managerial Accounting
Managerial accounting is directed towards providing information to managers inside the organization.
Managerial accountants prepare reports and analyze data.Reporting and analysis is often related to parts/departments/functions of the company rather than reporting on the entire organization as a whole.
www.mba4help.com
Managerial Accounting
Examples of activities performed by managerial accountants are:
1. Determining the cost of providing a service or making a product 2. Assist management in profit planning and formalizing the plans into budgets 3. Determine the behavior of costs and how profit will change as sales and production volumes change 4. Compare actual costs and financial results with budgeted costs and results 5. Providing cost and sales information necessary for management to use to make a decision.

MANAGERIAL ACCOUNTING
MANAGERIAL ACCOUNTING:
Does not follow GAAP and there are no reporting regulations Prepares reports only for management’s internal use Provides information to make decisions regarding the future Relevance of data is emphasized over reliability Focuses on timeliness of information Nothing is required to be reported, reports what management needs to see Reporting is focused on parts of the organization such as departments or divisions and not on the organization as a whole.
www.mba4help.com
FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING
Reports are provided outside the organization – external reports Reports past activities – based on a historical perspective Reliability of data is emphasized – reports take more time to provide focus on precise information since they are used outside the company Summarized data for entire company as a whole Must follow GAAP which has specific required external reports

Job order costing
The flow of costs through the manufacturing accounts is essentially the same in both process costing and job-order costing.
www.mba4help.com
Job order costing
1.Many different jobs are worked on during each period, with each job having different production requirements.
2.Costs are accumulated by individual job.
3.Job cost sheet is the key document controlling the accumulation of costs by a job. 4.Unit costs are computed by job on the job cost sheet.

www.mba4help.com
Activity based costing system
Is used to determine product costs for special management reports. This system is ordinarily used as a supplement to the company's usual costing system. Most organizations that use ABC system have two costing systems--the official costing system that is used for preparing external financial reports and the activity based costing system that is used for internal decision making and for managing activities.
www.mba4help.com
ABC costingIn traditional cost accounting systems, the objective is to value inventories and cost of goods sold for external financial reports in accordance with the (GAAP).
In activity based costing (ABC) system the objective is to understand overhead and the profitability of products and customers and to manage overhead.
www.mba4help.com
ABC costing1. Non-manufacturing as well as manufacturing costs may be assigned to products.
2. Some manufacturing costs may be excluded from product costs.
3. A number of overhead cost pools are used, each of which is allocated to products and other costing objects using its own unique measure of activity.
4. The allocation bases often differ from those used in traditional costing system.
5. The overhead rates or activity rates may be based on the level of activity at capacity rather than on the budgeted level of activity.

ABC costing
www.mba4help.com
Job order costing
If a company has estimated that its total manufacturing overhead cost will be $320,000 for the year and its total
direct labor hour will be 40,000. Its predetermined overhead rate for the year will be
$8 per direct labor hour, as calculated below:
$320,000 / 40,000= $8 per direct labor hour
Application of Manufacturing Overhead Cost in Job Order Costing:
www.mba4help.com
Job CostingOverhead applied to a particular job = Predetermined overhead rate × Amount of allocation incurred by the job
Example below indicates that 27 labor hours have been worked. Therefore a total of $216 of manufacturing overhead cost would be applied to the job. See the following calculation:
Overhead applied to job 2B47 = Predetermined overhead rate × Actual direct labor hours charged to job 2B47
= $8 per DLH × 27 DLHs
= $216 of overhead applied to job 2B47

Unit cost underthe method of process costing
Global Defense starts with the manufacturing process. All units will start and end in this period. Altogether, Global Defense will manufacture 400
units of DG-19 during this period.
Direct materials in this period: $ 32.000 Conversion costs in this period: $ 24.000 _______ Total Assembly costs in January: $ 56.000
Global Defense records direct materials and conversion costs in the Assembly Department as these costs are incurred. By averaging, the assembly cost per unit would be $
www.mba4help.com
Equivalent UnitsFor example, if 1000 units are in work - in - process at the end of the period and are considered 80% complete, the equivalent production is 800 units. The equivalent unit cost of manufacturing an item equals the total cost divided by the equivalent units. If the total cost of manufacturing the item was $2,400, the unit cost would be $3 ($2,400/800).
www.mba4help.com
Equivalent units process costing
A term used in cost accounting to arrive at the cost per unit. The term is associated with the units that are not completed at the end of an accounting period. For example, if 500 units are completed as far as materials, but are only 40% completed as far as direct labor and manufacturing overhead, the equivalent units are 500 for materials and 200 (40% of 500) for direct labor and manufacturing overhead.
www.mba4help.com
Cost behavior analysisCost behavior analysis is the study of how specific costs respond to changes in the level of business activity. As you might expect, some costs change, and others remain the same. For example, for an airline company such as Southwest or United, the longer the flight the higher the fuel costs. A knowledge of cost behavior helps management plan operations and decide between alternative courses of action
www.mba4help.com
Variable CostVariable costs are costs that vary in total directly and proportionately with changes in the activity level. If the level increases 10%, total variable costs will increase 10%. If the level of activity decreases by 25%, variable costs will decrease 25%. Examples of variable costs include direct materials and direct labor for a manufacturer; cost of goods sold and sales commissions. A variable cost may also be defined as a cost that remains the same per unit at every level of activity.
www.mba4help.com
Variable CostDamon Company manufactures radios that contain a $10 digital clock. The activity index is the number of radios produced. As Damon manufactures each radio, the total cost of the clocks increases by $10. Total cost of the clocks will be $20,000 if Damon produces 2,000 radios, and $100,000 when it produces 10,000 radios. We also can see that a variable cost remains the same per unit as the level of activity changes
www.mba4help.com
Variable Cost
www.mba4help.com
Fixed CostFixed costs are costs that remain the same in total regardless of changes in the activity level. Examples include property taxes, insurance, rent, supervisory salaries, and depreciation on buildings and equipment. Because total fixed costs remain constant as activity changes, it follows that fixed costs per unit vary inversely with activity: As volume increases, unit cost declines, and vice versa.
www.mba4help.com
Fixed Cost ExampleDamon Company leases its productive facilities at a cost of $10,000 per month. Total fixed costs of the facilities will remain constant at every level of activity. But, on a per unit basis, the cost of rent will decline as activity increases.At 2,000 units, the unit cost is $5 ($10,000 ÷ 2,000). When Damon produces 10,000 radios, the unit cost is only $1 ($10,000 ÷ 10,000).

Cost-volume-profit (CVP)Cost-volume-profit (CVP) analysis is the study of the effects of changes in costs and volume on a company's profit. CVP analysis is important to profit planning. It is also a critical factor in such management decisions as determining product mix, maximizing use of production facilities, and setting selling prices.
www.mba4help.com
CPV Income StatementThe CVP income statement classifies costs as variable or fixed and computes a contribution margin. Contribution margin is the amount of revenue remaining after deducting variable costs.
www.mba4help.com
CVP Income Statement
www.mba4help.com
Break-even Point Video's CVP income statement shows that total contribution margin (sales minus variable expenses) is $320,000, and the company's contribution margin per unit is $200. Recall that contribution margin can also be expressed in the form of the contribution margin ratio (contribution margin divided by sales), which in the case of Vargo is 40% ($200 ÷ $500).
www.mba4help.com
Break event chart
www.mba4help.com
Target net income
Once a company achieves break-even, it then sets a sales goal that will generate a target net income. For example, assume that Vargo's management has a target net income of $250,000
In order to achieve net income of $250,000, Vargo has to sell 2,250 DVD players, for a total price of $1,125,000.

What effect will a 10% discount on selling price have on the break-even point for DVD players?
www.mba4help.com
Solution1 What effect will a 10% discount on selling price have on the break-even point for DVD players?Answer:
A 10% discount on selling price reduces the selling price per unit to $450 [$500 - ($500 × 10%)]. Variable costs per unit remain unchanged at $300. Thus, the contribution margin per unit is $150. Assuming no change in fixed costs, break-even sales are 1,333 units, computed as follows.

Cost volume profit analysis(CVP analysis) is one of the most powerful tools that managers have at their command. It helps them understand the interrelationship between cost, volume, and profit in an organization by focusing on interactions among the following five elements:
Prices of products Volume or level of activity Per unit variable cost Total fixed cost Mix of product sold
www.mba4help.com
Cost Volume Profit
Because cost-volume-profit (CVP) analysis helps managers understand the interrelationships among cost, volume, and profit it is a vital tool in many business decisions. These decisions include, for example, what products to manufacture or sell, what pricing policy to follow, what marketing strategy to employ, and what type of productive facilities to acquire.

CVP High and Low
For purposes of CVP analysis, mixed costs must be classified into their fixed and variable elements. How does management make the classification? One possibility is to determine the variable and fixed components each time a mixed cost is incurred. But because of time and cost constraints, this approach is rarely followed. Instead, the usual approach is to collect data on the behavior of the mixed costs at various levels of activity. Analysts then identify the fixed and variable cost components. Companies use various types of analysis. One type of analysis, called the high-low method,
www.mba4help.com
The high-low methodUses the total costs incurred at the high and low levels of activity to classify mixed costs into fixed and variable components. The difference in costs between the high and low levels represents variable costs, since only the variable cost element can change as activity levels change
www.mba4help.com
The high-low method
Transit Company has the following maintenance costs and mileage data for its fleet of buses over a 4-month period.
The difference in maintenance costs is $33,000 ($63,000 - $30,000), and the difference in miles is 30,000 (50,000 - 20,000). Therefore, for Metro Transit, variable cost per unit is $1.10, computed as follows.
www.mba4help.com
High-Low method
Maintenance costs are therefore $8,000 per month plus $1.10 per mile. This is represented by the following formula: For example, at 45,000 miles, estimated maintenance costs would be $8,000 fixed and $49,500 variable ($1.10 × 45,000) for a total of $57,500

Budgeting
Budgeting is used as a planning tool by management. Through budgeting, it should be possible for management to maintain enough cash to pay creditors, to have sufficient raw materials to meet production requirements, and to have adequate finished goods to meet expected sales.
One of management's major responsibilities is planning. Planning is the process of establishing enterprise-wide objectives. A successful organization makes both long-term and short-term plans.
www.mba4help.com
Budgeting and AccountingAccounting information makes major contributions to the budgeting process. From the accounting records, companies can obtain historical data on revenues, costs, and expenses.
Normally, accountants have the responsibility for presenting management's budgeting goals in financial terms. In this role, they translate management's plans and communicate the budget to employees throughout the company. They prepare periodic budget reports that provide the basis for measuring performance and comparing actual results with planned objectives.
www.mba4help.com
Benefits of budgeting
1. It requires all levels of management to plan ahead and to formalize goals on a recurring basis. 2. It provides definite objectives for evaluating performance at each level of responsibility. 3. It creates an early warning system for potential problems so that management can make changes before things get out of hand.
www.mba4help.com
Benefits of budgeting
4. It facilitates the coordination of activities within the business. It does this by correlating the goals of each segment with overall company objectives. 5. It results in greater management awareness of the entity's overall operations and the impact on operations of external factors, such as economic trends. 6. It motivates personnel throughout the organization to meet planned objectives.
www.mba4help.com
Budget PeriodBudget period is not necessarily one year in length. A budget may be prepared for any period of time.
The budget period should be long enough to provide an attainable goal under normal business conditions.
The most common budget period is one year. The annual budget, in turn, is often supplemented by monthly and quarterly budgets. Many companies use continuous 12-month budgets. These budgets drop the month just ended and add a future month. One advantage of continuous budgeting is that it keeps management planning a full year ahead.
www.mba4help.com
Budgeting processThe budgeting process usually begins with the collection of data from each organizational unit of the company. Past performance is often the starting point from which future budget goals are formulated.
The budget is developed within the framework of a sales forecast. Sales forecasting involves a consideration of various factors: (1) general economic conditions, (2) industry trends, (3) market research studies, (4) anticipated advertising and promotion, (5) previous market share, (6) changes in prices, and (7) technological developments. The input of sales personnel and top management is essential to the sales forecast.
www.mba4help.com
Budgeting and Human Behavior
A budget can have a significant impact on human behavior.
In developing the budget, each level of management should be invited to participate. This “bottom-to-top” approach is referred to as participative budgeting.
www.mba4help.com
Master BudgetThe master budget is a set of interrelated budgets that constitutes a plan of action for a specified time period.
The master budget contains two classes of budgets. Operating budgets are the individual budgets that result in the preparation of the budgeted income statement. These budgets establish goals for the company's sales and production personnel.
In contrast, financial budgets are the capital expenditure budget, the cash budget, and the budgeted balance sheet. These budgets focus primarily on the cash resources needed to fund expected operations and planned capital expenditures.

The manufacturing overhead budget shows the expected manufacturing overhead costs for the budget period. This budget distinguishes between variable and fixed overhead costs.
Hayes Company expects variable costs to fluctuate with production volume on the basis of the following rates per direct labor hour: indirect materials $1.00, indirect labor $1.40, utilities $0.40, and maintenance $0.20. Thus, for the 6,200 direct labor hours to produce 3,100 units, budgeted indirect materials are $6,200 (6,200 × $1), and budgeted indirect labor is $8,680 (6,200 × $1.40).

Financial budgets consist of the capital expenditure budget, the cash budget, and the budgeted balance sheet.
The cash budget shows anticipated cash flows. Because cash is so vital, this budget is often considered to be the most important financial budget.
www.mba4help.com
Cash Budget
Cash budget contains three sections (cash receipts, cash disbursements, and financing) and the beginning and ending cash balances
www.mba4help.com
Cash budget components
The cash receipts section includes expected receipts from the company's principal source(s) of revenue. These are usually cash sales and collections from customers on credit sales.
The cash disbursements section shows expected cash payments. Such payments include direct materials, direct labor, manufacturing overhead, and selling and administrative expenses. Includes projected payments for income taxes, dividends, investments, and plant assets.
The financing section shows expected borrowings and the repayment of the borrowed funds plus interest.

Static Budget
The master budget formalizes management's planned objectives for the coming year. When used in budgetary control, each budget included in the master budget is considered to be static. A static budget is a projection of budget data at one level of activity. These budgets do not consider data for different levels of activity. As a result, companies always compare actual results with budget data at the activity level that was used in developing the master budget.

Flexible BudgetIn contrast to a static budget, which is based on one level of activity, a flexible budget projects budget data for various levels of activity. In essence, the flexible budget is a series of static budgets at different levels of activity. The flexible budget recognizes that the budgetary process is more useful if it is adaptable to changed operating conditions

Responsibility accounting Responsibility accounting involves accumulating and reporting costs (and revenues, where relevant) on the basis of the manager who has the authority to make the day-to-day decisions about the items. Under responsibility accounting, a manager's performance is evaluated on matters directly under that manager's control. Responsibility accounting can be used at every level of management. 1. Costs and revenues can be directly associated with the specific level of management responsibility. 2. The costs and revenues can be controlled by employees at the level of responsibility with which they are associated. 3. Budget data can be developed for evaluating the manager's effectiveness in controlling the costs and revenues.

Flexible BudgetFox's management uses a flexible budget for monthly comparisons of actual and budgeted manufacturing overhead costs of the Finishing Department. The master budget for the year ending December 31, 2008, shows expected annual operating capacity of 120,000 direct labor hours and the following overhead costs.
www.mba4help.com
Flexible BudgetThe activity index is direct labor hours. The relevant range is 8,000–12,000 direct labor hours per month.
There are three variable costs. The variable cost per unit is found by dividing each total budgeted cost by the direct labor hours used in preparing the master budget (120,000 hours)
There are three fixed costs. Since Fox desires monthly budget data, it divides each annual budgeted cost by 12 to find the monthly amounts.
*Prepare the budget for selected increments of activity within the relevant range.

Analyzing and Reporting Variances from Standards
One of the major management uses of standard costs is to identify variances from standards. Variances are the differences between total actual costs and total standard costs.In producing 1,000 gallons in the month, incurred the following costs.
www.mba4help.com
Computation of total variance
Companies determine total standard costs by multiplying the units produced by the standard cost per unit. The total standard cost is $42,000 (1,000 gallons × $42). Thus, the total variance is $2,500, as shown below.
www.mba4help.com
FavorableUnfavorable
When actual costs exceed standard costs, the variance is unfavorable.. It suggests that the company paid too much for one or more of the manufacturing cost elements or that it used the elements inefficiently.
If actual costs are less than standard costs, the variance is favorable It suggests efficiencies in incurring manufacturing costs and in using direct materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead.
However, be careful: A favorable variance could be obtained by using inferior materials. A variance is not favorable if the company has sacrificed quality control standards.

Incremental AnalysisWhat Does Incremental Analysis Mean?
A decision-making technique used in business to determine the true cost difference between alternatives. Incremental analysis ignores sunk costs and costs that are the same between the two alternatives to look only at the remaining costs. Example; Replacing all printer. Cost of the old printer (sunk cost) -NoCost of electricity -YesCost of tuner -Yes

Incremental analysisIncremental analysis, which identifies only those revenues and costs that change if the order were accepted, should be used to analyze the alternative. This requires a review of the costs.
To manufacture 15,000 packets would require $12.00 of direct materials and $6.00 of direct labor.
The per unit overhead cost of $0.50 is 50% variable ($0.25) and 50% fixed ($0.25).
Selling costs (includes commissions and delivery costs) for the 15,000 packets would be $7,000.
Administrative expenses would not change.
