. EXERCISES

Ei-1 The exercise requires turo examples of the inseparability of planning andcontnol. Thrce are listed here, and the third one gives two illustrations:

The most obvious erample of the inseparability of planning and con-trot is found in the definition of control: managementb slrstematic effortto achieve objectives by comparing performance to plans and takingappropriate agtion to correct important differences. The definition showsthat the specific results of planning ane an essential input to the controlphenoinenon; there cannot be any such thing as a control effort withoutreference to some set of plans.

A second exampla of the inseparability of planning and controlresults from the fact that they are simultaneous' In practice, the imple-mentation of the first steps of a plan, and any control action needed inthose steps, are begun before all parts of planning are complete. Earlyresults and the early findings of control activity can then be used in final-izing later parts of the same plan. An example is that a single annualbudget is usually not completely finalized before customer orders beginto be received lor that year, and consideration of the number of theseactual customer orders may point to trends that need to be considered infinalizing the budget. Even actual financial results of the early weeks andmonths of the year can provide a basis for better

'establistring the budget

for the later portion of the year.The most elegant example of the inseparability of planning and con-

trol results fronr'the fact that both planning and control are complexhuman activities, and almost all complex human activities are plannedactivities and also controlled activities. In other words, planning can beso compler that the planning effort is itself controlled (and planned), andcontrol can be so compler that control activities are themselves planned{and controlled}. T\,rro illustrations of this are provided as follows:(t) A case in which planning is itself planned and controlled is when a

complieated budget (plan) is to be prepared. To facilitate the cre-ation of the budget, a detailed weekly schedule (another plan) isfirst agreed upon, showing which steps in the preparation of thebudget are to be carried out during each week. Because it isdesired that the creation of the budget not be allowed to fall farbehind schedule, the responsible manager will exercise control bymaking comparisons between (a) the actual progress made on thebudget each week and (b) the schedule. The manager will also takesome corrective action if the difference between the schedule andthe actual progress is considered irnportant.

(21 A case in which control is itself planned is when a manager decideswhat kinds of control reports will be used to compare actuat resuttswith plons in each future period of business operations. That deci-sion, any efforts made to acquire a supply of preprinted reportforms to be f i l led in each per iod, and any changes in the design of

the cost accounting system to capture and compile the needed informa-

tion about actuat results represent evidence that the future.control activ-lty is being Planned.

El-2(11 B(21 A(3) c(41 A(51 ciOi B - although the time frame involved in this kind of plan may be.�

extremely long, there is nothing strategic about this kind of plan or deci-sion. ln flcti the plan and obligation to pay off the bonds when they

come due is so routine that management would not consciously

aPProach it as a decision.

E1-3(11 paragraph (bl comes closest to describing the kind of control used in

maniging a business, atthough it is described in a nonbusiness setting.

There is I plan lormutated in advance, there is a measure of actual

resutts, there is a decision maker who compares actual results with

plans, ihere is a selection of a corrective action to bring results closer in

line with tae plan, and there is a foreshadowing of repeated periodic con-

trol activit ies (the remaining quizzes)'The fact ifrat i lre measures of ptanning and actual performance ane

nonfinancial measures is not the governing consideration. Much planned

and actual information used in controtl ing a business is non-financial '

including some cost accounting infor:mation such as the number of units

produced, the percentage of units that were defective, and the percent-

age of available machine time that was uti l ized'(21 R-ragraph (a) is a perfect example of an engineering control ' rather than

the kind of control managers use in business. The simple device

described, which is founi in any home bathroom, is the kind of control

device deiigned to monitor a physical condition, and so it is analogous to

; th;r;;;Jt or any of a varieiy of devices called "industrial controls." of

course, devices of tnis kind art used in manufacturing and other busi-

nesses, but they do not possess the essential attributes of control in the

sense used in business and in cost accounting. The device achieves a

continuous monitoring of the results, rather than a periodic comparison

of results with plans, ihere is no human decision maker who selects a

corrective action to be taken. A human decision maker is probably-the

salient attribute of control in managing a business that is missing in

Prepare complete and clear reports and recommendations afterappropriate analyses of relevant and reliable information. flhe reliabilityof the information is in doubt, and the fact that certain sales figures areor are not sufficient to justify the bank loan are not relevant to prepara-tion of the budget)

lnteoritv: Refrain from either actively or passively subverting theattainment of the organization's legitimate and ethical objectives. (Thereis a push to subvert legitimate objectives to the immediate need for abank loan.)

Recognize and communicate professional limitations or other con-straints that would preclude responsible judgement or successful per-formance of an activity. (Rodriguez has not expressed to Czeista the con-flict between his desire to be a team player and his ethical responsibili-ties.)

Communicate unfavorable as well as favorable information and pro-fessional judgements or opinions. (Rodriguez is being asked to reportinformation that reflects so favorably on the company that lt may not bejustifiable.)

Refrain from engaging in or supporting any activity that woutd dis-credit the profession. (Preparing a deliberately misleading budget as

' part of a loan application could amount to obtaining mon-y by iraud.)Obiectivitv: Communicate information fairly and objecfivety.

(Rodriguez feels pnessuned to abandon his objectivity in preparing thebudget.)

Disclose fully all relevant information that could reasonably beexpected to influence an intended user's understanding of the reports,commentsr and recommendations presented. (A comparison of the newtargeted sales figure with the actual sales of tlre coresponding periodsof past years would be likely to influence the bank's understanding ofjust how large an increase in sares is being portrayed.)

He could have consultedwith the marketing manager and production manager.i "r.ry stage,rather than only upon receiving the initial budget olata.

lnteqritv: Avoid actual or apparent conflicts of interest and adviseall approptiate parties of any potentiat conflict. (The consulting iob wouldconstitute an apparent conflict of interest and probably an actual one'because Jones has been named to the SMI committee that will evaluateand rank all the proposats, inctuding Crimson's proposal, which shewould have helped to write.)

Refrain from engaging in any activity that would preiudice their abil-ity to carry out their duUes ethically. (The consulting iob with Crimsonwould preiudice Jones'ability to evaluate and rank the proposals forSMl, because one of the proposats would be Jones' own work.)

(Regardless of wbether the size of theconsulting fee is construed as being a gift or favor, lt Is likely that othergifts, favors, or hospitality will be extended to Jones by Grimson duringthe counse of the consulting engagement)

Refrain from either actively or passively subverting the attainmentof the organization's legitimate and ethical objectives. (SMl's legitimateobiective of obtaining the best computer system at the best price wouldbe subverted to Jones' personat need for money, as a result of Jones'disctosing crucial information for Crimson to include in its proposal,especialty i f Crimson might not deliver a system with the crucialattributes.)

(21 lt implies that cash-paying customers are paying a part of the cost of thebanks'fees for processing credit card transactionsr bscause these feesare paid by the merchant who then necover€ them in the form of slightlyhigher prices for all melchandise,

(3) The competitive implications ana that the prices paid by cash customensare too high to be competitive with the prices chargad by merchants whodeal only in cash, and the prices paid by customens using bank creditcards arp too low to reflect all the costs of a credit sala.

(4) The raason lor not reducing all prices and charging extra for the use of acredit card is because of the psychological effect of an extra charge. Tocustomsrs, lt sounds like a penalty, as If the merchant wants to discour-age the use of bank credit cards. A discount for cash customers has apositive connotation, even if prices marked on menchandise are higher to vbegin with. Raising all prices and offering a cash discount yields theaame net rsvenue as leaving prices alone and charging extra for using a 'bank credlt card, but the former method feels better to the customer -than the latter.

r The volume used here to catculate total fixed cost is the 2'OOo-unit vot-ume levol that was used originally to calculate the amounts of fixedcosts per unit, as stated in the data given in the exercise. The 2'OOO-unit tevel of production stated in requirement (5) is not the reason that2,OOO is used here to calculate total fixed cost'

The data indicate the bookcases are made of lumber, and some examplesof the indirect materials used in making wooden bookcases would beglue, sandpaperr and nails.

An estimate of costs referred to in the answer to requirement (6! wouldbe inctuded in the variable factory overhead of 55 per unit.

;

E2-12 Factory overhead = 113 x prime cost, so:

The food seryice managerb plan allocates the delivery costs over anarbitrarily selected number of items (two). This plan would result in high-or-than-planned pnofit margin pencentages on noom servico orders thatcontain more than two items, as demonstrated in the answer to require-ment (t). Prices on these olde6 would be higher than those of a Gom-petitor wlro traces costs mone carefully to cost obiects and sets pricessccordingty. The plan would also result in lower-than-planned profit mar-gins on room service orders containinE only one item, as demonstratedin the answer to requirement (21. Prices on these orders would be lowerthan what is needed to achieve the target profitability.

O3-l . The total dollar amount of a fixed cost is con-stant at difrerent levels of acttvity within the rele-vant range, but f ixed cosl per unit ot activityvaries. In confasl the total amount of a variablecost varies al differeil levels ol acwity, but thevariable cost p€r unit remains consEnt wilhin lherelevant range. A semivariable cost containsboth frxed and variable elements. Consequently,both total semivariable cost and semivariablecost per unil vary with changes in activity.

Q3-2. The relevant range is the range of activity overwhich a fixed cost remains constant in tolal or avariable cost remains constant per unit of activi-ty. The underlying assumptions about the rela-tionship of the activity and lhe incunence ot coslchange oulside the relevanl range of activity.Consequently, the amount of fixed cost or thevariable cost rate musl be recomputed for aclivi-ty above or below the relevant range.

O3-3. The fixed and variable componenls ol a semi-variable cost should be segregated in order toplan, analyze, control, measure. and evaluatecosts at difterent levels of actMty. Separation olthe fixed and variable componenls of semivari-able cost is necessary lo:

CHAPTER 3

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

03€.

semivariable costs are: (1) the high and lowpoints melhort: (2) lhe statistacal scanergraphmethod; and (3) the method of least sguares.The high and low points method has the advan-lage ol being simple to compute, but it has thedisadvantage ol using only two data points in O|ecomputation, thereby resulting in a signilicantpotential lor bias and inaccuracy in cosl esti-mates. The scanergraph has the aclvantage otusing all of the available data. but it has the dis-advantage of determining the fixed and vanablecomponents on the basis of a line drawn by vGu.al inspection tirough a plot ot the data, therebyresulting in bias and inaccuracy in cost esli-males. The method of leasl squares has theadvan tage o l accu ra te l y desc r i b i ng a l i nethrough all the available data, thereby resultingin unbiased estimates of the fixed and variableelements ol cost. but il has the increased disad-vantage of computational complexity.The $2OO in.lhe equation, referred to as the yinlercept, is an estimate ol the tixed portion ofindirect supplies cost. The $4 in the equation,referrecl to as the slope of the regression equa-tion, is an estimate ol the variable cost a:isociat-ed with a unit change in machine hours. Thesees t ima tes may no t be pe r l ec t l y accu ra tebecause they were derived lrom a sample oldata that may not be entirely representative ofthe universe population, and because activitiesnot inc luded in the regression equat ion mayhave some influence on the cost being predict-ed.The coefficienl ol correlation, denoted r, is ameasure of the extent to which two variables arerelated linearly. lt is a measure of lhe covariationof the dependent and indepenctent variables.and its sign indicates whether the independentvariable has a posilive or negative relaUorship tothe dependent variable. The coeffcient ot dster-mination is the square of the coeffici€nt of corre-lation and is denoted F. fne coefficient of d6ter-mination is a more easity interpretsd measure otthe covariation than b the coefficient of conela-lion, because il represents the percentago ofvariation in the dependent variable explained bythe independent variable.The standard enor of ihe estimate is defined asthe standard deviation about the regression line.tt is essentially a measure ol the variability of theaclual observations of the dependenl varaablefrom the points predicted on the regression line.A small value lor the standard eror ol the esti-mate indicates a good fit. A standatd errcr olzero would indicate a pertect ft, i.e., afi sctualobservations would be on the regression line.

(2' Perfect direct corretation would be evidenced by a coretation coefficientof one' The coefficient of .94il neyealed in (lXa) is closer to one than thecoefficient of .8602 in (l)(b). This means trat the variabte portion of t'v-el expense Yaries mone directly with mov.-"nt" in the number of callsmade than with the value of orfoers received. To exptain this further, therelative coefficients of determination are obtained by squaring the coeffi_cients of correration and expressing the ""=*.i.s a pencentage in eachcase.

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

O5-1. The cost attached to 8 Producl il an amount '

assigned by the costing melhods uled-an

amounl contro l led by the c i tcumstancer,

assumptions' and limitations ol lha melhod

under which il was ccrnfiled' Product cosb ato

cornposiles ol historbal outlay thal have, per'

haps, been modifki by estlnateo or slandards,

by processer assigning or proratlng expendi'

tures to periods, or by lracing the direct costs

and allocating the indirect cosls lo particularproducls so thal the total period outby b spread

over the aggr€gatt or'ipli. Despile these shorl-comings, product costs aro uselul in coslinginvenlories, cornpaling prices and tolal unit cost'

measuring current profil or loss, and indicatingthe rninimum cosl below which a sales price

cannot go in the long run. Sorne confusion willresult al times in usitlg cosl intonnatbn h mak'ing management decisions unless informatioorelevant only to the decisbo is used.

O5-2. The primary obiectivc h irb order costing is lodetermine the cost ol materiats, labor, and faclo'

ry overhead used to produce a specific otder orconltact. Cost estimatss ato made when theorder is taken, and the iob order praeduros atedesigned lo reveal cosls as lhe order goesthrough prodrrction, thereby giving an opportuni'ty lo control costs.

O5-3. The typ€ of cost accumulaiion melhod used by acotrlpany will be determined by the tlpe ct man'uf acturing operatbns pedormed. A rnanuf actur'ing company should uso Process c6l accumub-tion lor product ccthg putpos€3 when like unitsare continuousty nrass Produced; when cuslorn'rnade or unQue gpods are produced' icb ordercosting would be more aPProPriale. Processcosting is otten used in industries such as chem-icals, food processing, oil, mining, rubber, andelectrical appliances. With a continuous massproduclian ol like units, lhe cenler ol atlenllcn isthe individual process (usually a dopartmonl)'

The unit ccts by cost category as well as lotal

unil cct lor each Ptocess (deparrment) are nec'

e3sary lor product cosling PutPosss'O5-4. A icb order cost sheet is used:

("i to keep track of the direct rnaterials and

direct labor used on a icb plus atl aPPro-

Priate share cl frtorY overhead;(b) to comPara actual cost3 to estimaled

cqsts:(c) as a subsidiary ledger for the work in

procoss accounl.O5-5. The work in procesr accounl is a conlrol account

in the general ledger, ref lect ing lo la l coslsassigned or applied to jobs. The individual iobcgst shoots lorm the work in process acco{'nt'ssubsidiary ledger, indicathg the direct malerbls'direct labor, and factory overhead charged toeach irb.

05€. Job order cosl sheets serve a control funclion'Comparisons are made between estimates olpb cosrs and cosls actually accumulated lor lhejob. ln addition, cost control is enhanced byaccumulating direcl materials and labor as wellas factory overhead co3l3 by cost cenlers ordepartments, and by comparing lhe aclual coslsto cGt conter budgets.

O5-7. Actual lactory overhead consisls of the day'by'day cosls that ato actuatly experienced andincurred by the cornpany. Applied lactory over-head is the overhead charged to pbs based onthe predelermined factory overhead rate. Thisrale is crealed by divirJing total €stirnated over'head by toial estimated nurnber ol units (or any

other appropriate base). ThE dilference betweenaclual and applied factory overhead is lhe ovet-or underaPPlied faclory overhead,

05€. The characteristic of a service business lhal

rnakes likely the use ol job order costing is lhat

all jobs are not alike and cost information for

each iob is desired.

06-1. The basic obiective ol process costing is lo

determine the costs of the products manufac'

tured by the conrpany. Determinhg the cost of

the productr manutactured is necessary h order

to properly cost ending invenlories for exlemal

reporting Purpo3o! (i'e., teporting to credilorsand ownen of thd company, lhe SEC' and theIRS) and lo evalual. the ptofilability of the man'

ulacturing ac-tivity. In order to cost products, thecosts musl be determined for malerials, labor,and taclory ovefiead used to process each unitof producl lhtough eaclr deparlmenl.

06-2. The products rnanufactured wilhh a departmenl(or cost center) during the period can be helero-geneous il pb order costing is used, but musl behonrogeneous if process costing is used. In icborder cosling, producls are accounted lor inbatches. The cost cil each unil ol product manu-factuted on a pb is determined by dividing lhetotal cost charged to the pb by the number olunils produced on the iob. Since the nranufactur'ing cosl ol each iob is accounted for sepamtely'accuralo and uselul product cosl can be deter'mined even when the producls rnanulac{urad ondilferent ircbs are substantially diflerent' By con'trast, in procesr cosling, all nranulacturing costgare charged to the departrnent, and the unit costis determined by dividing the cost charged to thedeparlment by the number ol units produced' Asa consequence, the unils ol producl manufac-tured within a department musl be essentiallyalike in order tor the cost allaated to each unillo be meaningrtul (i.e., to reasonably reflect theactual c6l of the resources used to manulacturethe prcducl).

Selective refers to the fact that a product does

lho use of predelerminad rates for charging

overhead to jobs; in process costing, actual

overhead may be used. (However, predeter'

minEd rales are otten used in order lo smooth

ovefiead that is not hcurred at the sarne rata a3

throughoul the Year.)Summarizino Costs-A iob order cosl sheet is

*Ja to accumulate lhe costs of an order in ioborder costing; a cct of production rePorl is usodin process costing. In iob order costing, costsaro summarized on completion of the job; inprocess costing, costs charged to lhe depart-menl and cosls accounted for are summarized in

the cost of production report each month (or

sornetimes each week).Predetermined overhead tatos can and shouldbe used if the pattem of overhEad cost incur'rence does not follow the pattern of produclion

activity. Some items of overhead are fixed and

not responsive to changes in production aclivity'

It production volume varies each month, thenpredetermined overhead rates should be used'

Some items of overhead are incurred only at

cerlain times during the year, but benefil produc-

t ion throughout the year (e '9. , payro l l taxos,

insurance, property taxes, vacalion pay, eic') '

These i t ems can be reco rded as p repa id

oxpenses and amort ized uni lormly to each

rnonth it actual overhead is charged to produc'

tion. Altematively, estimates of such costs can

be included in the predetermined ovefiead rale'and the actual cosi charged to overhead whenincurred.

CHAPTER 7

DTSCUSSION QUESTIONS

O7-1. Ot slity cost! rnay be groupcd hto the folbwingthree classifications:1. Preventicn costs are the ccts hcurred lo

Ptcvent product failure. They include thecdt ct designing high quality productr andprcductbn rystenrs, irrludhg thc coett o{implementing and maintaining such sys'

' lems.2. Appraisal coots ate the coets incuned to

detecl producl failure. They include lhecet of inspccting and testing malerials,hspecting produc'ts during prodwlion, andthr cogt d obtahhg hlonnatinn lrqn cus'lorners aborn product salisfastiqt.

3. Failure ccts ato the cosls incuned whena product tails, ard may occur inlemally orexternally. Intsmal failure cosls are thosethat occur during the manufacluring gr Pro-ductbn procoss (e'g., scrap, spoilage' andrework), and external failure cosls arothose that occur at ls f the Product hasbeen sold (e 'g. , warranly repai rs andreplacements, 3al€s refunds, handl ingcuslom€r cornplaints, and bsl sales result'hg frorn Poor Producl qualtty).

Q7-2. TOM stands for total quality nwragemenl' whichb a cornpany'wirCe approach to quality improve'menl in all processes and activities. TOM is apervasive philosophy ol doing business thalapplies to all funstional areas of the companyand to ail personnel.

Q7-3. Five characteristics of TQM syslems are:1. The company's obiective lor all business

activily is to serve ils cuslorners' The termproduct' is extended to include services

as well as groods, and'custorner'hcludeshtemal usors as well as those outside ofthe cornpany who purctrase the company'sproducts. Each empbyee's activity is ori'entod to provirCing service to the cuslorner.

2. Top marngement prcvlCes an aclive lead-ership ro le in the qual i ly improvemenlrnovoment.

3. Al l employees are ac l ive ly involved inquslity improvement. Employees aro nolonly asked to contribute ideas, but also lol i nd ba t te r ways o f do ing l h i ngs -Involvemenl can be successlul only whenthere is oncourago.neol and an open andhonest environment cl trust.

4. Thc cornpany has a sysiem of idenlifyingqual i ly problems, developing solut ions,and set t ing qual i ly improvement objec-t ives. This typ ical ly involves organiz ingempbyees lrorn all ranks and lrom dilfer-

enl orgnnizational units along with man'agers who have authority to take the nec-essary actbn lo solve Prcblems.

5. The company places a high value on itsempbyees and proviCes cqrtinuous train-ing, ar well as recognition for achieve'ment. Employees perform besl wfien theyare well lrained, and they have the greal'est capacily to contribute when lhey arehightY educaled.

Q7-4. The concept cl continuous quality improvementditlers frorn the cmcept ol quality optimization inthat csrtinuous quality improvemenl is a dynam-b process of change under lhe assumption thatthe iCeal is not an abrclute loown value; where'as, quality optimization is a slalic approach tofhding the best solutbn to a given set of fixedand knorvn constraints.

O7-5. The first problem with trying to inspect quali lyinto the product is that il delects inlemal lailuresonly afler coosiderable cost has been incurred.The second problem is that the rnagnilude ol thecost of the internal failures, delecled by inspec-lion, is rarely measured and typically ignored.

Q7€. Cornpanies should concEntrale their eflorls onpreventhg poor gualily rather than on lrying loinspect it into the Process, because il will resultin less total quality cost. The approach is found'ed on the belief ihat by increasing preventioncosts, the cosl of in ternal la i lures-such asscrap, spoi lage, rework, and downt ime-wi l ldecline by a larger amount than the increase inprevention cosls'

O7-7. Ouality costs should be measured and reportedlo managemenl in order to provide incenlive and

direct ion for improving qual i ly . Large qual i ty

costs indicate large opportunities for improve-

menl. Also, moasurem€nts provide a basis lor

moniloring the cosl of quality and evaluatingimprovemenls.

07€. Scrap inc ludes (1) the f i l ings and t r immings

remaining aller processing nraterials' (2) defec'

live materbls that cannot be used or returned lo

the vendor, and (3) broken parts resulting trorn

employee €rrors or machine failures' Spoiledgoods differ lrom scrap in that they are parlially

or fully completed units lhat are in some way

delective and are not econornically or physically

conectable. Spoiled goods rnay be unils of theproduct or componont Parts, and they may ofmay not have a salvage value. Bework is lheproc€ss o l correct ing delect ive manufacluredgooos.

CASES

C7-1 Although improvement in product quality was clearly a stated goal at StarDisk Corporatlon, the company's reward structure suggests otherwise.

Employees cannot be expected to put quality first if rewards are dis'pensed for achieving obiectives that are often in conflict with quality

improvement (i.e., short-run production volume goals). The quality

improvemgnt itto* seems to have been focused solely on manufacturingaciivity, and the approach taken seems to have been to improve quality

by inspecting it into the product. Such an approach is inadequate,blcause it waits too late in the pnocess (i.e., after costs have beenincuped in manufacturing defective prcducts, instead of before) andfocuses on only one piece of the problem rather than the whole problem.

In order to turn the problem anound, top management must becomeactively involved. The reward structure should be changed to ensunecompatibil i ty with quality goals. Quality teams that include employeesfrom all business functions (product design as well as manufacturing)and all levels (labor as well as management) should be created to helpidentify quality problems and find ways to solve the identif ied problems.Top management should actively participate in these teams in order toemphasize the importance of quality, coordinate efforts between organi'zation units, and provide direction. Employees are more l ikely to becomemotivated when they understand the importance of qualitg and top man-agement participation and leadership underscore that importance. Inaddition, alt employees must refocus their efforts on serving theirrespective customers. The data presented in the case suggest that man-agers frpm the different departments put all their attention on meetingproduction volume goals rather than on meeting the needs of their cus-tomers (i.e., the department receiving their output).

Atthough product inspection should be continued, emphasis shouldbe shifted to preventing poor quality rather than detecting it. Preventionshould start with product design and extend throughout the entire manu-facturing process. Some things to be considered include:(al reducing the number of parts required in the product;(bl using higher quality materials;(c) using standardized parts;(d) using wel l -known product ion technologies where possible;(e) minimizing retoolings;(0 increasing employee training;(g) reorganizing the manufacturing facil i ty from production depart-

ments to manufacturing cells to promote teamwork and decreaseinventory costs;

(h) upgrading or modifying machinery;(i) install ing a statistical process control system to monitor production

qual i ty and reduce product ion var iabi l i ty .

C7-1 (Concluded)

A few of the biggest and most urgent problems should be identif iedand tackled. In order to achieve results, effort should be concentrated ona lew costly problems that can be solved. Tackling too many problemsresults in dispersed efforG and little observable accomplishment.lmproving guality takes time and never ends. The company and itsemployees need some successes to build confidence and create themomentum needed to turn the quality problem around.

C7-2 Product cost may be increasing as a result of an increasing amount ofscrap, spoilage, and rework. Since the costs of these internal failures arenot measured, management cannot evaluate the significance of the prob-lem. In addition, since these costs are not measured, employees have noincentive to reduce or eliminate them. Treating scrapr spoilage, andrework as a norrnal production cost encourages such waste. As a conse-quence, overall costs rise. The company's cost accountants shoulddevelop a system of determining the cost of scrap, spoilage, and rework;implement the system 0.e., begin measuring such costs); and repodthese costs to responsible managers. lf the cost of scrap, spoilage, andrework is high, management should initiate a guality improvement pro-gram that concentrates on preventing these internal failures. This mayinvolve organizing employee quality teams to identify problems anddevelop solutions, locating new vendors to obtain higher quality materi-als, redesigning products to improve quality, modifying or upgradingmanufacturing machinery, training or retraining employees, andlor reor-ganizing the production processes.

CHAPTER 8

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

Og-1 . Joint products represenl lwo or more produds

sepaiated in the course ol the same processing

operation, with each produci having such rela-

live vatue that no one produd can be designated

as a maior Produd.A by-product is relatively minor in lerms of

torat vaiue and is derived incidsntally ftom lheproduction or manufac'ture ol onE or more maior

Producls.O8-2. Revenue from the sale ol by'producls may be

listed as olhet incoms, addilional sales revenue.

a deduction from the cost ol goods sold of themain product. or as a deduaion from the cost ofproduclion of the main Product-

O8-3. Yes, when by'producl revenue is deducled fromthe total production cost ol ths main product' lhe

unit cost of the main product is reduced; conse'quen t l y , t he cos t o f t he end ing i nven to rychanges also.

O8-4. The r€placement cost method can be used in

such cases. In this method, the by'ptoducls thatgo into making other unils are valuEd at ths cost

the company would have to pay il it wete to 90out on the market and purchase such materials'

O8-5. (a) Ths treatment described tor by'productsmay be justit ied when, relative to mainproducts, the revenue generated by lheby-producl is insQnilicant; when no clearlydel ined basis o l ident i fy ing by 'productcosls ox is t : or whsn the cosl of morerelined accounting would be disproportion-ato to lho benelits teceived.

(b ) The t rea tmen l desc r i bed has seve ra lshortcomings. All gross profil is ascribedlo maior products and is incorrscl as ameasure of total gross profit, since theinvenlor ies of by-products that may beunsold at the end ol the period wil l have azero value. Failure to assign values lo by'products may well mean lhey are not rsc-ognized as inventoriss at all. This' in turn.could lead to their wasls, lheft, or othermishandling. ll by-products are sold irregu-larly and invenlories are albwed to accu'mulate, bolh a material understatemont otinvenlories and a distorlion ol reported netincome of suqcessive periods may rssun.

QB-6. Yes, some of lhe in i t ia l manulactur ing cosls ,additional manufacturing costs (when by'ptod'ucls aro lurther processed alter separation), andpe rhaps even marke t i ng and admin i s t ra l i veexpensss may be charged to lhe by'produds.

O8-7. Methods for allocating the total ioint produdioncosl to joint products are:

(a) Allocate the pint oost on the basis of therelative market value of lhe pint producls.

(b) Allocate the Fint cosl by using an .werageunit cosl obtained by dMding the tolal joint

manulacturing cost by lhc total number ofunits produced.

(c) Al locate the jo int cosl on the basis o lweight factors such as size' ditficulty olmanufaciure, ot amount ol materials used.

(d) Atlocate the joint cost on the basis of someuni t o f measutement such as Pounds,lons, or gallons. ll lhe ioint products aremt measured in the same way' they muslbe converted to I denominator thal iscommon to all the unils Produced.

O8-8 . The marke t va lue me thod cons ide rs t he

revenuegroducing ability of lhe ioint produds by

assuming that each shouH be valued accordingto ils cost absorption ability. Resulling invenlory@sts are in harmony wilh revenue producingabitity and, il the combined joint producls areprofitable, the market value method avoirJs allo-

cating more cosl lo a producl than hs revenue;thus achieving a neutral elfect. However, this

method may be diflicult to apply if the matketvalue al the splitofl point is nol known.

The average unit cost method, while simple lo

apply when unils are measursd in l iks tsrms'lails to consider the heterogeneous nature of tho

individual Products.O8-9. Joint costs musl be allocated to ioint producls

when lhere is invsnlory to be costed.

O8-10. Not exaaly. A new manufadurer would do well

lo consull the Internal Revenue Service aboul

the methods to be used, so that an IRS agentcan make a decisbn before the tax rslutn is pro'

pa red . l n o the r cases , whe re an a l l oca t i onmethod has been apdied consistently lrom year

to year, to apply for a ruling would not be good

$ralegY.O8-11. The method used in cabulating unil costs pro'

duces the same unh cost lor all grades of lumber

sold. The owner is then led to bolieve thal lhe

same cosls in the sams ratio are attributable to

the low as well as the high grade number.h must also be recognized that because of lhe

inhotent nalure ol thE materials and the mill ingpromss, il is not possible to eliminate low gradenumber. Thus, the profitability of the oPerationcan be viewed best by considering the aggre-gale ol tovonue and costs of both the high andlow grades ol lumber, coupled with conttols toassure that all practical stsps are laken to obtainhigh quality logs and to mill them properly.

P&l (Concluded)

(31 Neither the market valuE method nor average unit cost method of allo-cating joint cost is a more accurate way of determining ioint productcosts. Joint cost, because of its nature, cannot be accurately split upamong ioint products, sincs joint cost is incurred to producs ono or all ofthe ioint products. That is, ioint cost cannot be reduced by dropping oneof the products. Thus, to make decisions about joint productionr onemust look at the revenue and separable cost of each product to deter-mine whether it ls profitable on the margin. In such decislonsr foint costls not relevant. The only purpose for allocating ioint costs is to determinea cost for inventories on the balance sheet and for cost of goods sold onthe income statement.

For financial statement purposes, in most situationsr better argu-ments can be made for a value-based allocation basis rather than aphysically-based one. At times, the physical base can result in absurdallocations of costs among products because of the disproportionaterelationship between the relative value of the joint product and the unitsproduced, relative to other ioint products.

(1) The markot valuo method of ioint cost allocation assigns cost in pnopor-

tion to oa;h productb markel Yaluo to all products as follows:

Market Value of EachProduct at Split-off

Total Market Value ofAll Products at SPlit'off

Jointx Production

Gost

lf thera ls no market valuo at split-off, then the value at the first sales

point, tess separable cost, lg used. lf ioint products have a markot valuo

at the split-off point, the margin for ail ioini products at the split-off will

be the samo.

The joint cost i3 altocated in proportion to n8v€nuo gensrating ability (as

contrastod to some quantita*re'measunes not r€lated to rsvenue)'

Therefore, this accomplishes Jim Simpsonb obiective that inventoriabls

cost shoutd be based on each productb ability to contribute to the recov-

Chapter I

C8-1 (Gonctuded)

(31 When SE-s becomes a main product, the joint production cost would bealtocated proportionally to all three products on the basis of the marketvaluo of each product at the split-off point. The net revenue of SE-5 willno longer be deducted from the joint production cost prior to aflocationbecause SE-s will no longer be a by-product.

c8.2

There are a number of areas that appear to be problematic in Hayes Products'costing and decision-making pnocesses. These areas, which are outlined below,need to be reviewed and perhaps modified.

(f l The use of the average unit cost method for altocating joint product cost.Units produced, although a simple method of allocation, is not necessari-ly the best method for apportioning cost across joint products. Thismethod can distort the cost-value relationship of a joint product and givean ospecially misleading picture of the gross margin provided by a iointproducl For example, assume that in meat processing of cattle, oneproduced ground beef and steaks. Each pound of ground beef would beassigned the same ioint cost as each pound of steak, yet the sales pricesper pound are quite different. For this reason, it is better to use somevalue-related allocation base, such as the market or sales value method,to allocate cost.

l2l Inclusion of all spoilage costs in product cost. Spoilage in productionpnocesses can be assessed as normal or abnormal. Whether spoilage isnormal (expected) or abnormal (unexpected) should guide the way inwhich spoilage costs are handled in product costing. Normal spoilage ispart of product cost since it is planned for in implementating the produc-tion technology. Abnormal spoilage should be written off as a loss in theperiod, and if the amount is material or the spoilage continues over someperiod, the source of spoilage should be found and corrected. HayesProducts does not seem to be distinguishing clearly between normal andabnormal spoi lage. This needs to be studied, and some changes need tobe made in the appl icat ion of spoi lage costs to product.

(31 Decision making based on fully altocated cost. Hayes appears to beabout to make a product line decision on fully allocated cost data withioint cost included. Decisions with relation to any of the products shouldbe based on the separable contribution margin of products, i.e., separa-ble revenue less separable variable cost. This problem needs to belooked at closely since the al located joint cost f igures should be usedonly for f inancial statement purposes.

The market value mothod does not proviile additional data for the rlsr-keUng deeision. Joint cost sllocation is necessarily arbitrary and'although used lor financial accounting purposes, ls not relevant to thedecision to market DMZ-3 and Pestrol, The VDB joint cost is irrelevant tothis decision because it ls incurred in both cases, i.e.' the method of costaltocafion has no impact on tho differential profit. Talor ChemicalGompany should calculate the differential prolit of its alternate choicesby comparing the differential rsvenues and diflerential costs.

Talorb analysis is incorrsct because it incorporates allocated portions ofthe joint cost of VDB. The weekly cost of VDB (3246,000) will be incurredwhether or not RllA-2 ia converted through lurther processing. Thus' anyallocation of the ioint cost of VDB is strictly arbitraty and not rslevant totho decision to market DMZ-3 and Pestrol. Talorb decision not topnocess RNA-2 further is incorrect The decision results in a loss of$2O'OOO in profit per week, as indicated by the following analysis:

DISCUSSION OUESTIONS

O9-1. The mosl lreguently used documents in the pro-curemenl and use ol materials are purchase reg-uisit ions, purchase orders, receiving reports,materials requisil ions, bil ls ol malerials, andmalerials ledger recods.

O9-2. The invoice shouH be routed to the AccountingDepartment immedidely upon receipt. A copy oflhe purchase order and a copy of the receivingreport'with an inspection report should be com-pared by lhe accounting clerK When lhe invoiceis found lo be correcl in all aspects or has beenadjusted for errors or rejects, the accountingclerk approves the invoice, anaches il to theunderlying documents il they are in hard-copylorm, and sends these documenls to anotherclerk for lhe preparation of the voucher.

O9-3. Inventor iable cosl should inc lude a l l costsincrrred lo get the produc.t ready for sale to lhecustomer. lt includes not only the net purchaseprica bul also the olher associated costs, suchas freiThl-in, incurred up to ths lime producls areready for sale to the customer.

Q9-4. No, administration costs are assumed to expir€with lhe passage of time and do not anach lo theproduct. Furthermore, administralive costs donot relale directly to inventories, but are incursdfor the benefit of all lunciions of the business.

O9-5. The three key questions to anstv€r in designingan inventory control syg€m are:(a ) how much to o rde r -economic o rde r

quanlity(b) when to order-order point(c) satety stock required

09€. The firm benefils lrom lhese techniques by hav-ing a crnsistenl, standardized approach to itsinventory managsment. lnventory costs and ser-vica lo customsrs will be optimally balanced.

O9-7. The purpose ol an economic ordor quantilymodel is to determine the optimum quantity toorder or produce when fi l l ing inventory needs.The optimum quantily is delined as lhat quanlitylhal minimizss the cost of inventory manage-ment.

Q9-8. The decision concerning how much to order orproduce at a given lime involves a compromisebelween inventory carrying costs and ordering orsolup cosls , Examples o l inventory carry ingcosts are: in terss l on the monsy invested ininvontories that could have b€en invested else-where, property tar and insurance, warehousingor slorage, handling, deterioration, and obsoles-cence. Ordering costs include ths cost of prepar-ing the requisilion and purchase order, receivinglhe order, and accounling for lhe order. Setup@sts involve the costs ol sening up equipmentto make lhe actual production runs. For all these

costs, only lhose thd vary with adivity are rele-vant lo the E@ model.

O9-9. The @nsequencos of maintaining inadequareinvenlory levels indude hi;her purcfrasing, han-dling, and transportation costs, bss ol quantitydiscounls, produclion disruptions, inllation-relat-ed pr ice increases when purchases aredeferred, and bst sales and customer goodwill.

Mgasursment of the costs of lost orders andz bst repeat business is not easy because mea-

suremenl may be largely subjective. On theother hand, the other factors listed can be mea-sured with fair certainty and grealer ease.

09-10. In computing optimum produaion run size, COropresenls an estimale ol lhe setup cost and CUis lhe variable manulacluring cost per unit.

09-11. (a) The order point is the low poinr ol stocklevef that, when reached, means a replen-ishing order should be placed.

(b) Lead time is the interval between placing anorder and delivery of lhe ordered gmds.

(c) Salety stodt is the minimum inventory tharprovides a cushion against reasonablyexpecled maximum demands and againstvarialions in lead time.

O9-12. Mater ia ls regui rements p lanning (MRP) is acompuler simulation that integratos each prod,rjct's bill ol mderials, inventory slalus, and man-ufacturing process into a feasible productionplan.

09-13. Eftective uti l ization of capital, which inctudesinveslment in inventory, is the responsibil i ty ofgeneral manag€ment; lhere lore. the pr imaryinterest is in linancial control. Atthough generalor top-level managernsnl is inlerested in provid-ing customers with gmd products and services,the scheduling of produaion inrolves unit controlprimarily and is the responsibility of productionand purchasing departm€nts.

09-14. ln the control ol materials, the opposing needsare the mainlenance of an inventory ol sufficientsize and diversity lor efficient operations, andthe mainlenance of an investmenl in inventory ata level that will maximize earnings and minimizacosts.

O9-15. When a relatively few malerials it€ms accountfor a considerable por l ion o l to ta l inventoryinvestmonl selective control is indicatod. Hbh.value ilems would be under tight control, whilulow-value items would be under simple physicalconlrols.

Automatic control refers lo ordering when amalerials record shows that lhe balance on handhas dropped to the order point. At this time, thequanl i ly to ordor is aulomal ic , having beendelermined by balancing the cost to order with

Explanation of costs:

(a) The full cost of the maintenance salaries and employee benefits lsincluded because the $1o.8o St9.0o + ($9'00 x20%17 incurred perlabor hour is incurred solely for the purpose of effecting thechangeover.

(bl The other costs of the Equipment Maintenance Department are notinctuded in the estimate because they are fixed costs of the depart-ment and will be incurred regardtess of the maintenance workers'activities.

(c) The sataries of the 5 production workers for the full 5 hours eachare included in the setup cost because they must be in attendanceall of the time, though they are needed only part of the time. lf theworkers could have been assigned to other iobs during thechangeover, then the full amount would not be charged to setup.

(d) The variable factory overhead costs of the production departmentapplled on the direct tabor hours base are incurred as a function ofthe direct labor hours; therefore, a full 25 hours of cost areassigned to the setup cost.

(e) The variable factory overhead costs of the production departmentapplied on the machine hours base are incurred as a function of theoperation of the machineryl therefore, I hour is assigned to setupcost for the t hour the machinery is used in testing.

(0 All production department fixed factory overhead costs (both thoseapplied on the basis of direct labor and those applied on the basisof machlne hours) are not included in the setup cost because theywould be incurred regardless of the activity in the departmenL

(g) The net materials cost of $f SO is included because it represents theunsalvageable portion of the materials used for the setup and notfor the production of a salable desk.

Reduct ion of vendor lead t ime = 116 x 18 days = 3 days

Because the rate of output wi l l be unchanged, a reduct ion of Wlp to one-third of its present level wil l tr iple the velocity. The average order wil lthen remain in wlP only one-third as long, saving two-thirds of t imepresently being spent in WIP:

Reduction of t ime in WIP = 213 of present t ime in Wlp= A3 x i2 days= g days

EIO-3 The expeited annual savings is S2,2OO,OOO, calculated as follows:

Doubling the velocity of all tasks, from receipt of order to shipment and

from ordering materials to issuing materials to production, will reduceWIP and materials inventories by half' therefore:

. Reduction in materials carrying costs = Z}oh x materials reduction= 2Ooh x(112 x $3,0O0'OOO)

$3OO'0OO

Reduction in wlP carrying costs = 2ooh x wlP reduction= 2|oh x (712 x $5,OOO'O0O}= $5OO,O0O

This change will also reduce customer lead time from eight weeks tofour weeks. Because customers are will ing to wait up to five weeks forshipment, alt shipments can then be made-to-order. There will no longerbe a need for finished goods inventory. Once the existing finished goodsinventory is liquidated by sales or scrapping, the annual savings from notcarrying finished goods will be:

Reduction in finished goods carrying costs= zloh x finished goods reduction= zloh x (l OO% x $7'O0O'OOO)= sl,400,oo0

Total savings = s300,000 + s5o0,0oo + sl,4oo,o0o - $2,200'OOO

(f l A $3OO materials cost per unit was calculated in requirement (lf of thepnevious exercise; therefore,

Materials cost of RIP ending inventory = 22O units x S3OO Fer unit =$66,OoO

\

(21 The three possible amounts for the conversion cost of the RIP endinglnventoly ol 20 units, SAoh converted, are:

2O units x SOoh x $96.72 = $967.2O of conversion cost20 units r SOTo r $gg.0O = $9gO of conversion cost2O units x SOoh x $93.00 = 9990 of conversion cost

It seems inconsistent to assign 50% conversion costs to RIP when theunits in RIP lyere counted as whole physical units in the denominator ofthe conversion cost per unit calculation in requirement 2(c) of EIO-IO, yand when they were not counted at all in the denominator of the calcula-Uon in requirement 2(b) of El0-10. But the total dollar differenceassigned to RIP is immaterial. Whatever the amount of conversion costs \dassigned to RIP and finished goods, the remainder of total conver':sioncosts simply remains in cost of goods sold.

the rate of final output will not change, velocity wiil change'inverse-ly with the change in WIP levets.) The faster cytle time will imptovethe speed with which orders can be filled, thul increasing cusio;ne1.saUsfacUon and perhaps increasing perceived prcduct value so thatprices can be raised (or price cuts delayed oravoided|.

(bl lf, as a rasult of the shorter cycle time, total lead Ume becomes lessthan the Ume customens are willing to urait for an order, then thecompany would no longer need to maintain a linished goods inven-tory.

(c) The cost of handling more loads of materials. lf lot sizes are smallenough to require only one load per lot both before and after thechanCe, then a larger number of lots will result in a larger totalnumber of loads.

(dl The cost of performing a larger number ol setups to permit runninga larger number of batches or lots of smaller size. ldeally, as part ofthe JtT implementation, setup cost will be driven down to eliminatethis problem.

(1) Protech could achieve an average lead time on these orders of 42 days'calculated as follows:Reduction of time in WIP = 314 of present time in WIP

= 314 r (360 days + I O!= 314 x 36 days= 27 days

Reduction of vendor lead time = 113 r27 days = 9 daysNew lead time = present lead Ume - reductions

= 78 days - 127 days + 9 days)= 42 days

Note: lt is not stated that Protech defines WIP and WIP turnover in a waythat excludes the two days spent in receiving and the three days spentin linal inspection. To check that the average cycle time of 360 days/lO,or 36 dalrs, does excludE those steps (sothat there is no double-count-ing), note that a cycle time of 36 days, when added to the other intervalsmentioned, gives the stated total lead time of 78 days: 6 + 27 + 2 + 36 +3 + 4 = 7 8 .

(21 The advantages of shorter lead time inctude:(al The value of the floor space freed up by eliminating three-foudhs of

WIP storage,(b) lmprovement in the speed with which orders can be filled, which :

should increase customer satisfaction and perhaps increase per-ceived product value so that prices can be raised (or price cutsdelayed or avoided).

(c) lf the new 42-day total lead time is less than the time customersare willing to wait for an order, ttren the company would no longerneed to maintain a finished goods inventory. This possibility wouldresuJt in additional savings in floor space and other inventory carry-ing costs

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

Ol 1-'1. Yes, lo lhe exlent that il is practical to m€asurethe r,ralue added or the productivity of a worker.However, msasurement of lhe cootribution ofeach individual is never exacl. Also, a businesscannot pay more for materials or labor than thesales price will recover. Materials, workers, andmachines produce products and services.There must be a difference belween revenueirnd oosts consumed; othenrvise, lhe businesscannol sun/ive.

Otl-2. Productivity may be defined as the measure-menl of produclion performance using theexpenditure of hurnan elfort as a yardstick. ln abroader sense, it may be described as the etfi.ciency with which resourcas are converled intocornmodities ancVor services that people wanl.

Ql 1-3. Productivity is important to a lirm because highproductivity reduces the unit cost ol the outpuland makes ihe f i rm more compel i t ive. t t isimportant to workers because lheir real earn-ings should be increased when productivity ish igh. Product iv i ty is importanl to societybEcause increased productivity enables societyto gel moro and better oulput from the basicresources of lhe econorny.

Ql 1-4. To measure labor efficiency, it is necessary toeslabl ish a standard of per formance. Thismeans determining how much a worker shouldbe able to produce, or how much a worK cr6wshould be able lo produce. The standard isdelermined by time and motion study, lest runsby skilled workers, and averages oi past per-formance by skilled workers.

Q1 1-5. The purpose of an incentivs wage plan is toinduce a worker lo produce more, iesulting in ahigher wage and reduced conversion cosl oe,unit. Freguenily, machine outpul is l imited byworker performance. lt employee perlormancecan be increased, machine cost per unit of pro-duclion will decreasa. An incentive wage ptanmay atso reduce loaf ing, ind i f ference, andcarelessness, and may generate a cost.con-scious labor force.

Q l 1 -6 . Gene ra l l y , hou r l y ea rn ings go up w i thincreased production, and labor co.-st per unit oloutpul is reduced. High production rates alsoreduce overhead cosl per unit of output, which

(b) Ordinarity, it is not a propiliour tine to hi-tiato an hcentive wagr ptan wtren a phntis operating far below capacity, becausethe worker is already fearful d sornethingless than full employrnent. ll a ,eason-able day's work is being received for thegoing rate ol pay, po.stponement of the. incenlive plan is indicated. However,there is a nalural tendency for workers loreduce output durhg such perlgds, there-by increasing cosls, wilh a lendency lobring about further reduction in the vol-ume lhat can be soH. With luft e4plana-lion and underslandhg of thc situation,the incentive wage could be htroduced

At an SOoh learning factor, the cumulative time to produce 8 lotsshould be 368.64 hours. At a standard labor rate of $9 per direct

l2l The company shoutd estabtish the standard for direct labor time equal tothe marginal direct labor time required to produce the eighth lot' provid-ing steady-state production occurc after the eighth lot. To assure thatthis standard time will be accurate, the company should:(al Keep accurate records through the first I tots to determine if an

l2l To assess properly the effectiveness of the new plan, it is nocessary toanallze lts eftect on convorslon costs and not just on direct labor costs.Although dlrect labor cost per unit may rise, this Increase may be morothan offset by distributlng the overhead over a larger Yolume.

A comparison ol the two pay plans and their effects on convsrsion costper unit shows:

The decreaso In conversion cost is minimat; however, the fact that cus-tomels can be s€ryed sooner might be worth additional labor cost.Based on learning curyo theory the productivity of the worker mightincrease sufficiently to reach a more satisfactory output and cost level.

(1) Arguments used by each proponent:

(a) 1,00O-pieces-per-hour-rate:{1} Studies show that machines can be operated at this rate.(21 Variances determined by this output rate will measure the inef-'' fective use of the machines.(3) This rate can be a target level to be strived for, and the chang-ing variances will show pnogness toward this ta4get.(4) A goal of this natute will motivate the supervisor, and therebythe workers, to reach this rate of output.

(b) 750-pieces-per-hour-rate;(1) This rate of output has been attained by some workers.(21 The IroOo-pieces-per-hour rate has not been attained, nor hasany rate near to it been attained.(3) The 6oo-pieces-per-hour rate is an average of actual perfor-mance and does not represent good economical performance.(4) The standard cost should reflect production rates that can beattained when good economical performance occurs. The 75O-pieces-per-hour rate, capable of being achieved by some workers,would seem to be such a per{ormance.

. (5) The variances would measune the extent by which this economi-cal levef has been exceeded or the extent to which it has not beenmet.(6) lt should provide motivation for the supervisor to improve on the60o-pieces-per-hour cunent rate and in turn motivate the employ-ees to improve their performance.

(c) 6OO-pieces-per-hourrate:(1) This rate has been achieved by the departments as a whole. Thestandard costs should be set to reflect the ability of the wholedepartment.l2l The variances from standard cost based upon the 6Oo-pieces-per-hour rate would measure the departures, favorabte and unfavor-able, from the current effective level of operations.(31 For two thirds of the workers, the 75O-pieces-per-hour ratewould be dlfficult lo attain and would tend to frustrate them, thusmaking even the present 6oo-pieces-per-hour rate difficutt to main-tain. For all workens, the 1r0Oo-pieces-per-hour rate could not beattained' thus lowering the morale of the department and probablylowering output below current levels.(4) The 6oo-pieces-per-hour-rate, when passed down to the pro-duction worker, wourd be an appropriate goal for those threeemployees who are producing fewer than 6oo pieces per hour.

C11-1 (Concluded)

l2l The purpose of standard costs and standard cost reporting is to measurethe performance of a department against a level of cost incurrence thatnepnesents attainable good economical performance. The variances indi-cate the periods when the performance varied (favorably or unfavorably)from this acceptable level.To be used effectively, the rate to motivate the supervisor and, thereby,

the worker,s to improve performance would depend upon the perceptionsas to what is attainable. lt would also depend upon the reward structureswithin the firm. Other variables would also affect what output rate wouldmotivate improved performances.The value picked (e,9., ir00o, T5o, or 600) must be a compromise

between the level that witt have the most effective motivational resultand that which will be an effective representation of the costs when thedepartment is operating at an acceptabte economicaf level. The 1,OOO-pieces-per-hour rate should be reiected because it does not provide thebasis for a measure of an acceptable cost tevel. lt woutd also be of ques-tionable value from a motivational point of view, because it appears to beunattainable by the production workers.The 75o-pieces-per-hour rate is a possible choice. lt is capabte of being

achieved by some workers and as such may provide motivation to thesupervisor to bring other workers up to that level, thus achieving adepartmental output of 750 pieces per hour. tt also may represent theappropriate basis for a standard cost because it is a possible acceptablelevel of performance. tt may also be a suitable departmental targetestablished in connection with the introduction of the standard cost sys-tem.The 6oO-pieces-per-hour rate is also a possibte candidate. The Punch

Press Department has achieved this tevef, and three of the six employeeshave been able to achieve it. lt is, however, the current level of ouiputand that may make it ineffective in motivating the department and itsworkers to improve the level of output. As the basis for standard costs, itcoufd represent an acceptable level of output; but it does not incorporatethe possible improvement tikely to be obtained in connection with anintroduction of a cost system.The 75o-pieces-per-hour rate seems to be the best choice of the three

alternatives. More information about the conditions under which theengineering studies were done, the training and experience of the work-ers' and the trend of worker and department output in recent periodswould be necessary before the number could bs chosen with someassurance that it would meet the stated objectives.

c11 -2(1) ' An advantage of the new payroll incentive plan is that it recognizes a

problem' which should improve employee motivation. Action taken bymanagement will be perceived as a positive effort to resotve a problem,and employees may feel more a part of the group and behave as teammembers.

Some disadvantages, which could lower employee motivation, are thatemployees' f i les are open to scrutiny by peers, and that employees mayfeel that they have to be a part of the "in grouptt to be assured-recogni-tion for wage increases. The plan could degenerate into a popularity con-test.

some advantages that should improve employee productivity are theincentives the plan provides for employees to perform effici lnt|y andeffectively, and the beneficial competit ion it promotes among employees,as long as it is in harmony with corporate goals.

A disadvantage that could lower employee productivity is that the plancould lead to collusion among groups of employees to keep productivitylevels artif icialty low. Employees could approve each otherb'wagerequests without appropriate merit. The plan also coutd resutt in ineffi-ciencies, because employees who have had their wage increases turneddown may not work up to capacity due to a loss of inierest.

some advantages that shoutd improve goal congruence between theemployee and the company are that the plan indicates the company'sinterest in the needs of the employees, and that the plan may result inincreased profit through improved productivity, which may lead toemployees earning a larger income through increases in wages.

Some disadvantages that could lower goal congruence are that employ-.ees may mistrust a wage plan suggested and implemented by manage-ment, and that there may be an overemphasis on a l imited range of per-formance measures.

Some advantages that should improve administration of the plan are thatprocedures for requesting a wage increase and for its approvat are clearand unambiguous, and the plan allows for relatively quick positive feed-back and peer recogni t ion.

Some disadvantages that could hamper plan administration are thatthere is a l imited amount of management input and control, and thatthere wil l be additional record-keeping responsibil i t ies associated withthe voting procedures and maintenanJe ot'empiov"" productivity recordsand personnel f i tes.

The basic premise of the learning curve is increased productivity asexperience is gained in the performance of repetitive tasks. Variouslnputs to the production process may be used more efficienily as cumu-lative output increases, but in most production processes the maiority ofcost savings associated with a learning phenomenon involve the use ofhuman labor.( s , z o o + 2 , 2 4 o ) + 1 6

= ;;3

= BSoh tearnins rate3,200 + 8

With a learning rate up to cumulative output of 32 units, average directlabor hours used to produce these 32 units should equal gs% of theaverage direct labor hours used to produce the first 16 units. tn short,average hours employed for each unit when 32 units are completedshould equal:

340 x .85 = 289 hours per unit .This implies a total of 289 x 32 = 9,249 hours used in the production ofthe first 32 units, or

91248 - 3,200 - 2,240 = 31808 hours

usgd in the production of units lz through 32.lf the average hours perunit in this production batch is taken as the direct labor standard, thestandard per unit becomes:

Shoitcomings:(1) Actual payroll hours are not approved by production managernent.(21 There is inadequate segregation of duties within the Payroll Department.(31 Personnel Department should not have access to payroll checks.(4) Departmen-t supervisors should not distribute the payroll checks.

Suggested corrective action:(f l All incoming time cards should be signed by both the ernployee and

supervisor.(2'l The payroll clerk preparing the input for data processing should not do

the reconcil ing, but rather a second clerk should reconcile the payrolljournal to the time cards.

(31 An employee of supervisory level should authorize voiding of computer,generated checks and the subsequent preparat ion of a manuat replace-ment check.

(4) Replacement checks should be processed fol towing good internal controlprocedures.

(5) Al l payrol l checks, including unsigned replacement checks, should thenbe given to the Accounting Department rather than to the PersonnelDepartment for storage in a secure location unti l payday. No AccountingDepartm ent emp loyee with payrotl recordkeepi n g responsibil i ty sh ouldhave access to the undistributed checks.

Disclose fulty all relevant information that could reasonably beexpected to influence an intended user's understanding of the reports,comments' and recommendations presented. (The shifting of cost amongmaintenance iobs would violate this ethical responsibility.)

CASES

Empco Inc. is currently using a plant-wide overhead rate that is apptiedon ths basis of direst labor dollats. In general, a ptant-wide manufactur-ing overhead rate is acceptable only if a similar relationship betweenoverhead and direct labor erists in all departments, or the company man-ufacturcs produc-ts which receive proportional services from each

-

department"' In most casesr departmental overhead rates are preferabte to ptant-wide overhead rates because plant-wide overhead rates do not provide:t a framework for reviewing overhead costs on a departmental basis,

identifying departmental cost overruns, or taking corrective actionto improve departmental cost control.

' sufficient information about product profitability, thus, increasingthe difficulties associated with management decision-making.

Because Empco uses a plant-wide overhead rate applied on the basis ofdirect labor dollars, the etimination of direct tabor in the DriilingDepartment through the introduction of robots may appear to reduce theoverhead cost ol the Drilling Department to zeno. However, this changewill not reduce fired manufacturing expenses such as depreciation, p-lantsuperuision, etc. In reality, the use of robots is likely to increase firedexpenses because of increased depreciation expense. Under Empco'scurrcnt method of allocating overhead costs, these costs wi1 merely beabsorbed by the remaining departments.

(a) In order to improve the allocation of overhead costs in the Guttingand Grinding Departments, Empco should:o establish separate overhead accounts and rates for each of

these departments;' select an application basis for each of these departments that

best reflects the relationship of the departmental activity tothe overhead costs incurred (e.g., direct labor hours, machinehours, etc.);

' identify, if possible, fixed and variable overhead costs andestablish fired and variable overhead rates.

(bl In order to accommodate the automation of the Dritting Departmentin its overhead accounting system, Empco shoutd:o establish separate overhead accounts and rates for the

Drilling Department;' identify' if possible, fixed and variabte overhead costs and

establish fixed and variable overhead rates;' apply overhead costs to the Dritl ing Department on the basisof robot or machine hours.

Chapter 13

I

The company should use departmental ovorhead ratos since the twodepartments ano producing heterogeneous producta. The added accura'cy is requlred for pricing decisions and for better cost control informa-tion.The fixed cost of both seruice departments should be allocated based onlong-range facitiUes utilization. Variable cost of purchasing would be bet-ter lllocated using a cost driver, such as purchase orders, because thereis a stronger explained relaUonship than by use ol volume of materialsordered. Allocation of variabte cleaning cost basod on square footagesoems reasonable; however, the variable cost of maintaining equipmentshould be isolated and charged to departments based on the cost of ser-vices provided.

A futler consideration of the interactive benefits of departmentswoutd be achieved by use of thE step or simultaneous methods' andpreferably the simultaneous method. Such consideration is desirablebecause the ssrvice departments provide services to each other.

A letter to the president of Summerville InC:

Dear Sin

From a study of the manufacturing operations of Summervil le lnc.' i tis recommended that in distributing its factory overhead, the companyuse predetermined overhead rates applied as percentages of the directlabor cost. Tho company should use predetermined rates based on nor'mal capacity rather than actual overhead rates because of the widecyclical flustuations in its business. Using actual rates would, due totarge frxed overhead costs, make the per unit overhead cost high in thelow production periods and low in the high production periods. Usingpredetermined rates, the per unit overhead cost would be level the yearround. For quoting prices and pricing inventories per unit, costs whichare neither Inflated nor deflated by the cost of factory facilities are best.

(21 Wage rates are substantially uniform within the separate depart-ments, and departmental labor costs ara closely proportlonata to labortime. Therefore, distributing the factory overhead on the basis of directlabor cost would in this caso effest about as accurate a distribution aswould the direct labor hours baso. The clerical erpense of the dirsctlabor cost base would be low because the method does not requiro accumulaUon of the number of direct labor. hours applicable to each job.

Applying overhead on the basis of prime cost is not recommendedbecause of the wide differences in the costs of the materials used tomake a given lamp or fixture. Factory overhead is the cost of factoryfacilities. The factory facilities used to make a lamp of silver are notmorc'than those used to make the same lamp of copper. For this nsason,the use of prime cost (since it includes materials cost) would rasult in anercessive charge to lamps using erpensive materials.

Yes, Teksize Company does have a diverse product l ine in the sense inwhich the term is used in ABG. The fact that the two products have thesame annual unit volumes does not matter, because the existing costsystem does not use units as the atlocation base. Regular representsonly 2Ooh of direct labor hours but nearly SOoh of setup-related costs,while Large has a very different mix, so a diverse product l ine is presentin Teksize Company.

The ABC system shows that the relative prolitabilities of the two prod-ucts are the reverse of what is shown by the edsting system: the existingsystem shows a very modest gnoss margin of lOoh on f321r which isprobably not enough to cover its marketing and administrative costs,while showing a respectable 38% gross margin on f333. ln contrast, theABC system shows a 43oh gross margin on #321 and a substantial losson f333. The low-volume product appeans to be the more profitable ofthe two under the existing system, but appears to be a money loserunder ABC; the high-volume product appears weak under the existingsystem, but highly profitable under ABC.

Based on the results of the ABG study, Dallas division managementshould consider meet ing the compet i tor 's pr ices on f l321; th is pr ic ingstrategy can be profitable in the long run and should avoid loss of marketshare. The strategy for f 333 is not as clear. Gustomers are not l ikely toaccept the 20O% price increase needed to make #333 reasonably prof-itable, and Dallas could lose some customers who also buy largeamounts of #321, if management discontinues #333 or increases itspr ice too much. Management should consider several possibi l i t ies forlow-volume products such as f333:(a) Reduce batch- and product-level costs enough to become an effi-

cient producer of low-volume products. This may require creation ofa small job-shop environment in a portion of the plant (or in anotherfacil i ty) where low-volume products could be made more efficiently.The case indicates the existing plant was designed to produce longruns efficiently, which may explain the high batch- and product-levelcosts.

(b) Reduce the number of products by designlng " new one that can besubstituted for several low-volume, unprofitable products that canthen be discontinued; this essentially erchanges several low-vol-ume products for one of much higher volume, with substantialbatch- and product-level savlngs'

(c) Convince one of the current buyers of the low-volume products tobecome a distributor of several such products; buying them fromDallas in larger quantities, maintaining small inventories, and sellingthem to othJr customers. This can reduce Dallast batch-level costsand marketing costs, but it risks the loss of customers who like tobuy the full l ine from one supplier.

(d) naise prices gradualty until all products ane neasonably priced. Thisdoes not mean all products must show profits. (lt is acceptable for agood customer to occasionally buy a money'losing product.) Rather'it means that the company should not continue making a money-tosing product without a good reason. lt is not acceptable to have acustomer who buys only the money-losing products, nor for thecompany to continue making a money-losing product that no "good

customerstt are buying.(e) In addition to the usual penunit prices, charge a lump-sum amount

per order for any small order of a low-volume product. This charge. coutd be set at a level to cover estimated batch- and product-level

(3) TPICS is not an ABG system because all the allocation bases are at theunit level. The changes management made do show many of the attribut-es typicalty associated with a change to ABC: the increase in the numberof overhead cost pools, the attempt to create homogeneous cost pools'and the use of three distinct allocation bases. These changes show anattempt was made to capture differences among the demands placed onresources by the different products. But because there are no batch- orproduct-tevel drivers used, the system cannot capture the demandsplaced on batch- and product-level activit ies, i.e., it is not an ABC sys-tem.

(5) The proposed new costing system is an ABC system because it uses costdrivers that include non-unit-level drivers. The unit-level driver ismachine hours, the batch-level drivers are setup hours and loads han-dled' and the product-level driver is design hours. Vendor orders couldbe either a batch- or product-level driver, depending on whether ordersare placed for each batch; the case does not tell whether this is so.

(6) For the low-volume product, #33, the proposed ABC system shows a sub-stantially higher cost than did either of the other two systems. This is thegeneral result when ABC implemented and compared with traditionalsystems. At the usual sell ing price of S8OO, the ABC system says thisproduct is a money loser. Equally, or perhaps more importantly, the pro-posed ABG system shows that the high-volume product can be pr icedvery competit ively.

could lose some customers who also buy large amoqnts of #44 ifmanagement discontinues i l33 or hikes its price too much. Managementshould consider several possibil i t ies for low-volume products such asf33:

(a) Reduce batch- and product-level costs enough to become an effi-cient producer of low-volume products. This may reguire creation ofa small job-shop environment in a portion of the plant {or in anotherfacil i ty), where low-volume products could be made more efficiently.

(b) Reduce the number of products, by designing a new product thatcan be substituted for several low-volume, unprofitable productsthat can then be discontinued; this essentially exchanges severallow-volume products for one of much higher volume, with substan-tial batch- and product' level savings.

(c) Convince one of the current buyers of the low-volume products tobecome a distributor of several such products; buying them fromWarrenton in targer quantit ies, maintaining small inventories, andselling them to other customers. This can reduce Warrenton'sbatch-level and marketing costs, but it r isks the loss of customerswho like to buy the full l ine from one supplier.

(d) Raise prices gradually unti l all products are neasonably priced. Thisdoes not mean all products must show profits. (lt is acceptable for agood customer to occasionally buy a money-losing product.) Rather'it means that the company should not continue making a money-losing product without a good reason, lt is not acceptable to have acustomer who buys only the money-losing products, nor for thecompany to continue making a money-losing product that no ' igood

customers" are buying.(e) ln addition to the usual sales price, charge a lump-sum amount per

order for any small order of a low-volume product. This chargecould be set at a level to cover estimated batch- and product-levelcosts.

O1$2. A budgel is the oxp€cted targ€t that manage-mont strives lo achieve, whereas a lorecasl isa level of revenue or cosl that an organizalionpredicts will occur.

Olt3. The three approaches lor setling profit objec.lives are:(a) A oriori. Management specifies a given

(b) A msteriori. lr/lanagemenl draws up plansand.then sels lhe rate resulting frorn theplans.

(c) Praomalic. Managemenl uses a targetp ro f i t s tanda rd t ha t has been tes tedempirically and sanctioned by experierrce.

Short-range budgetingplrces the plannhg and particulariy control intoperirds of three. 3ix, or tw€lvo mstths.

Ql$'5. A budget is a detailed financial stalement ofthe organizalion's strategy. lt converts generElls t rategy sta lements in to speci f ic p lans o laction, measured financially. lt is related tocontrol, because it is the fundamental guidelinefor whal the organization should do. Thus, it islhe benchmark against which aclual perfor.manco is cornpared. This process of ccnpari-son is a vital gart ol the conirol function in lheorganizaticr.

(dl They will highlight potential problem situations. Disciplined businessplanning and budgotary procedures could emphasize a variety of prob'lem situations that might be encountered during the period of the plan.

l2l Listed below are the major probtems that would most likely be disclosedbecause Maiton Company is about to erperienco a significant growth.(a) The lack of adequate production facilities to manufacture the valve at

the quantities required. The company has served a small part of themarkeL The new segment is much larger, thus calling for more produc'Uon facilities than previously needed.

(bl The tack of adequate Internal capital gources to finance the asseterpansion (both working capital and plant and equipment). The companyis smalt and probably generates modest amounts of capital. The amountis not likety to be enough to meet the new requiremonts. Gonsequently'the company witl need to seek capital from the outside, and probablyhas little erperience because it grew slowly and had no previous needfor outside capital.

(c) The lack of adequate management nesources (people) to administer thecompany as lt gFo\ rs. The company ls small and, thus, probably solelyrun by George Mai. As lt grows, there will be the neod for more manage-rial people. This need probably cannot be met with current employees.

(d) Lack of planning and budget skills. The company probably has had littleneed for planning. Consequently, it may experience difticulty in organiz-ing for and developing a five-year plan. Specific problems could occurwith regard to forecasting, production, marketing, and cost of capital.

(21 Operating problems that Tripte-F Health Club could experience in 2OGinclude:(a) The lessons and ctasses contribution to cash wil l decrease because tho

projected wage increase for lesson and class employees is not made upby the increased volume of lessons and classes,

(bl Operating expenses are increasing faster than nevenues from member-ship fees.

(c) Triple-F seems to have a cash management problem. Although thereappeani to be enough cash generated for the club to meet its obliga-tions, past due amounts occur. Perhaps the cash balance may not belarge enough tor day-to'day operating purposes.

P16-8 {Concluded}

(41 Since the critical path requires 14 weeks, at least 2 weeks must be cutfrom the project in order to complete it in l2 weeks. As originallyplanned (determined from requirement (2)), the following three pathsrequire mone than 12 weeks:

Path Time Required

A - B - E - G - H = 2 + 5 + 3 + 3 = 1 3 w e e k sA - B - E - F - H = 2 + 5 + 4 + 3 = 1 4 w e e k sA - C - D - E - F - H = 1 + 4 + 1 + 4 + 3 = l 3 w e e k s

The first place to start reducing time is the critical path, A-B-E-F-H,because the largest amount of time must be cut from this path. tn thisproject' each activity on the critical path can be crashed, so the firstactivity to crash should be the one that has the smallest crash cost perweek. By crashing activitr F-H, which costs S2r8oo, path A-B-E-F-H isshortened by one week to 13 weeks. ln addition, since activity F-H is onpath A-G-D-E-F-H, it is shortened to the required 12 weeks. Now onemore week must be cut lrom activity A-B-E-F-H and from activity A-B-E-G-H to bring each path and the total project down to 12 weeks. Theactivity that costs the least to crash and that is common to both paths isactivity B-E, which witl cost $5,2oo to crash one week. The only otherway to reduce both paths by one week would be to crash one activity oneach path (activity E-G for 9rl,6o0 or G-H for $2,300 on path A-B-E-G-Hand also activity E-F on path A-B-E-F-H for s3,zool, which will result in aminimum additional cost of $6,000. Therefore, the minimum cost toreduce the total proiect timo from 14 weeks to l2 weeks is $g,ooo,resulting from reducing activity B-E and F-H by one week each for costsof $2'8oo and $5,2oo, respectively. Since the minimum additional cost of9lqilg two days off of the total time reguired to complete the project is$8rooo, the minimum total cost of compieting the project in 1?weeks is$25'lo0 ($12''loo normat cost from requirement (3) pius $8,o00 addition-al cost).

(21 The two general principles for the allocation of service department costsapplicable under tho circumstances are (a) distribution on the basis ofservics or benefit received for the variable cost; and (bl distribution onthe basis of readiness to serve or capacity that must be maintained forthe fixed cosL

This solution distributes all variable costs incurred. A predeter-' mined variable cost rate should be calculated, so that the efficiency ofthe power plant could be judged. The present $.ZO rate is based on theactual monthly consumption and cost.

Chapter 17

P17-3 (Continuedf

The budget atlowances catculated in (af and in (b) include the servicedepartment shares by two different mothods: the share of theMaintenance Department cost is based on the charging rate of $.5O andthe actual hours worked, which is in harmony with the general procedursadvocated. The share of the Janitorial Department cost is based on 7112of the apportioned cost. This approach ls used because it is believed thatianitorial services have no relationship to the number of hours worked Inthe producUon departments, In fact the lllustratlon could be made moForealistic by basing the apportionment of Janitorial Department cost onthe basis of the relative amount of floor space occupied by the producingdepartments. As long as no change in the spaco has been reportedr theshare would remain as established in the budget figures.

It should be noted further that the maintenance cost could becharged to the producing departments on the basis of maintenancohours and not direct labor hours. An additional refinement would appor-tion fixed cost on the basis of a predetermined maintenance schedule'and the variable cost on the basis of maintenance hours actually used.

' QASES

(f l The factors that influence the behavior of the production managers,described in the case, conflict with the factors that motivate the mainte-nance managens" The production managens have been given a monetaryincentive to improve the costs in their own departments. They requirethe support of the other departments, (e.9., Storrrcom and Maintenance|to achieve their objective; but the incentives (monetary and otherwise)have not changed in the other departments.

To lmprove their costs and earn the incentives, the pmduction man-sgonr have postponed repairs; demanded emergency repairs more fre-quently than in the past demanded repair work be done mone quickly toreduce downtime; demanded special treatment in some cases; pfacedundue pressunes on maintenance manageni; and complained about themaintenance charges.

The results of the demands by the production managans conflictwith the following tactors, which appear to be important io the mainte-nanca managens and reflect on their performance: good relations withother managens; high quality repair work, inctuding making machinerysafe and maintaining its normal life; and orderly work schiduting.

(21 lf monetary incentives to the pmduction managens are to be continued,complaints and conflicts could be reduced by revising the charging sys-tem as follows: develop predetermined hourly charging rates for eachskill level within the Maintenance Department; Oertloi predetermined orbudgeted hours for routine or repetitive maintenance work; develop bud-geted costs for parts and materials; use maintenance job time cards thatare initialed by production managers when the job is done; and develop apenalty rate to be charged to those production man"g"o ;rho need quicfservice that could have been avoided by timely maint-enancs schedut'ing.

lncreased productivity and reduced conflicts between managensprobably could be more effectively achieved by revising the renrard andevaluation structure. Evaluations lnd rewards tor indiv'idual effortsshould be eliminated, and cooperation and continuous imfrovementshould be encouraged and tewarded. High rejection rates and internalconflict suggest that far moro is wrong wittr ttre current "yit"- than justthe charging rates.

The main objective ig to ensure that the costs areallocated to the aneas that ara rasponsible for the incurrenco of thecosts.(al $8,OOO cost of idle time in the Assembly Department-This should

be charged to the Machining Department because it is a directresult ol their decision to change production schedules. By chargingMachining with this cost, they beeome awano of the overall effectsof scheduting changes and the overalt cost to the company of theirdecision. Some justificaUon could be given to charging $3OO of thisto the Purchasing Department becauss.that would have been theadded cost to the company if the schedule had not been changedand it is a direct result of the Purchasing Depaftmentb decision togo with a new supplier.

(bl $1,OOO savings in costs due to layoffs in Machining Department-This should be credited to the Machining Department because it isa direct result of their decision to lay off machinists'

(c) S1,5OO cost of training in the Machining Department-This shouldbe charged to the Machining Department because it is a directresult of their decision to lay off machinists who must be subse-quently replaced, This would ensuno that they ane aware of the totaleffegt of their decision on the overall company instead of iust theirown department.

(d) S2OTOOO lost profit on sales resulting from Assembly Depaftmentdowntime-This ls an opportunity cost that is not normally recog'nized in the accounting records and, therefore, would not becharged to any departmenl In evaluating the Assembly Department'consideration should be given to the shutdown that occurred in theMachining Department and its effects on the output of the AssemblyDepartment,

Overall, the companyb present budget and leward (bonus) system wouldappear to be causing a fack of goal congruence, poor communicationtand an overatl employee dissatisfaction caused, in whole or in part' bythe following:(a) The company does not appear to be following the basic concepts of

responsibility accountlng and reporting (as evidenced in (1)). Thecompany should try to ensune that the responsibility for a cost isdirectly retated to the authority to control the cost in order to estab-lish a fair evaluation system.

(b) The company appears to have a "budget-constrained" style of eval-uaUon, in that all managers seem to have their prime concernfocused on meeting their budget regardless of tho overall effect onthe company. A sprofit-conscious" style would be more appropriatot

(al Danielb perception of scott, the controlle4 is that she is:(i) an accountant who knows and cares little about the production

aspects ol organization;(21 unsympathetic and not helpful in providing sertices to the pro'

duction dePartments;(3! an accountant who is unwilling to change or nequest executivemanagement to make changes in reporting requirements.

(b) DaniePs perception of corporate headquarters is that it is:(11 unfair beciuse they are using the cost report as the sole-iudgeof performance, thereby ignoring monE realistic cost comparisons'product quality, employee pride, and motivation;iZ1 ins"niitiue io the needs and concerns of production people;

es,(c) Daniel's perception of the cost report is that it is:

(il a shortsighted report overemphasizing cost minimization as a

singfe obiectivei(21 lnflexible and not subject to the changing production levels andoperating conditions of a dynamic production process;

til a biaied repoft highlighting shortcomings and failing to givepnoper recogniiion to lmplovements in performance or innovativepnocesses.

(dl Daniel's perception of himself is that he is a:(il qualii ied production manager interested in a quality product at areasonable price;(2! frustrated manager unable to get satisfactory cooperation fromthe Accounting Department or executive management;(3) discour"gJd production manager recognizing that the currentreporting situation is nearly hopeless, and that others before himhave been equallY unsuccessful.

(21 Danielts perceptions adversely affect his behavior and performance as aproduction manager. Operating in a ttno wintt situation in which hebelieves performance neports do not fairly represent his accomplish-ments, pius the inability to communicate his desires or needs to appro-priate people in top management, can inhibit motivational desires andcurtail incentive.

(3) Ghanges that could be made in the cost reports that would make theinlormation mons meaningful and less threatening to the productionmanageni are as follows:(a) Include a mone detailed breakdown of labor and overhead costs.(b) Use a budget allowance based on actual activity rather than a static

master bulget for measuring performance' so that changed condi-tions, volunie changes, and fixed versus variable costs are recog-

nized in the rePorting Process'

CASES

cl8-1

(il Fl The use ol participgtive cost gtandards to motivate plant managorgand department heads has several benefits. These benefits rcsultfrom contact with erecutive managoment through the interchangeof ldeab, negotiation between the partles, and a final compromise inestablishing the standard. This allorvs the plant managers anddepartment heads to personally idenUfy with these standards'which wilt increase their desire to achieve a goal they have accept-od.

In this caso, howeve6 the standard-setUng pnocess does notsppoar to be partlcipative. Erecutive management appears to followthrough with the interchange of ideas, but the negotiation and finalcompnomise are missing. Executive management merely reviewsnecomm€ndations before setting the standards, without discussingthe standards further with plant managemenL As a consequence'plant managons may become frustrated with the standard-settingsystem and a negative irnpact upon motivation could result.

(bl The use of tight, but attainable, standards can have a positive moti-vation effect on department heads and plant managers. Ttris is par-ticularly true if they participated In setting the standards and areconfident that good performance witl be recognized and rewarded'However, if the standards aro perceived as being unattainable' thenthe motivation'will probably be negaUve because they leel there isno uso in trying lor an unreachable goal, The unfavorable variancesbeing the norm seems to imply that the standards aro too tight' andthis coutd be part of the causo for the low motivation among first-line supervisors.

(21 Under the present system, there is no motivation for department headsto control overhead costs because all overhead costs are allocated onthe basis of actuat units produced, and the actual production output inother departments can have a significant impact on the overhead costcharged to each department.

The use of standard, pradetermined department factory overheadrates, apptied on the basis of standard activity allowed for actual produc'Uon, should provide useful cost control information and enhance costcontrol on.,the part of department heads.

The characteristics that should be present in a standard cost sys-tem to encoufiage positive employee motivation include:(f) partlcipation in settlng standards from all levels of the organiza-tlon including purchasing, engineering, manufacturing, andaccounting;(21 the integration of olganizatlonal communication by translatingthe organizational goals and objectives into monetary terms for theemployees;(3) support of the standard cost system by executive management;(4) standards that ane perceived as achievable and accurate andapply to contlollable costs.A standard cost system should be implemented to motivate employ-ees positively by:(1) communicating the corporate objectives of a standard cost sys-tem;l2l solicitlng imprcvement in standards fipm employees;(3) using a standard cost system to prcvide a guide-to action, not astraight lacket. (Although signlficant variances should be expiained,employees should not feel that the standard ls a mandate.Gontinuous imprcvement shoufd be the goal.);(4) not overemphasizing variances, although standard cost vari-ances often are used for individual perfotrnance review and reward,(Employees should be encouraged to take actions that will benefitthe company as a whole rather than simply to meet standard.)Management by ercepilon focuses management's attention only onthose ltems that deviate significanily frc; the standanl, Theassumption is that by foregoing a thorough, detalfed analysis of allItems, the manager has morre time to concentrate on other manage_rial activities.The behaviorar rmplications of management by exception Incrudeboth positive and negative implications. on thl positive side, thistechnlque increases management efficiency by concentrating onlyon slgnificant variances, ailowing time for the h"n.gg to concen-trate on other activities. on the negative side, managens tend onlyto focus on the negative variances rather than the positive ones,limitlng their employee interactions to negative reinforcement orpunishment. This technique may not indicate detrimentar trends atan early stage, and fragmentation of efforts can occur fipm deallngonly with the specrfic probrems rather than gtobar issues.

(1) Had Stevens not confined his initiat remarks to telling the employees thatproducgon standards were too tow, but rather erplained whyr the resultsof the confsrence would certainly have been mono effective.Furthermore, he should have lemained with the grouP and ioined the dis-cussion. He lailed to establish two-way cotnmunication' to exchangeideas, to air differences of opinion, and to provide neasons why certainpractices could or could not be followed. Had he remained with thegroupr Stevens coutd have stated that he had been thinking about theproblem of production standards and, In his opinion, such and suchshould be done. Then he could have asked the group what lt thoughtabout fottowing the ouUlned approach. The ensuing discussion shouldshape a suggested course of action nopresenting tho groupb opinions aswell as those of Stevens.

lt is poor pracUce for a manager to abdicate, as Stevens did in thisincidenl An important part of a managerb iob is to provide effectiveleadership, to show tha way by offering a plan, by giving neasons' and bytaking into account suggestions offered by the members affected by thoplan. Using this approa-ch, the managerls ideas, the groupb wishes, andthe needs of the enterprisa can be blended into an effective program.

h might be that the employees wene correct, that standards should bereduced. For example, errors In calcutating the standards ano possible.The employees must be given the opportunity to present reasons fortheir nocommendations.

Both facts and experience are important in determining the level ofproduction standards adopted. Stevens should abstain from forcing anydecision. lt may tako several weeks or months for events to demonstratewhat standards shoutd be established, for they will bo influenced, amongother things, by the verification of the employees' major beliefs, the cor'rectness of Stevens' statements, the extent of modifications requiredtand the fult comprehension of the situation by tho employoes.

Ct8-3 (Concludedl

The subject of raising production standards, in itself, is not a popularono among e-mployees. Ons must be quite naive to betieve that an

-

employee will_accept an increase in production standards without someexplanation of the reason it is requested or required. The issue in thisIncident could be better identified as sHow can the enterprise survive?'or sHow to Increaso our production outputD or .rHow to regain " st-ngcompetitive position for our company.tone might also raise the question of whether Stevens was adequately

in touch with the attitudes and beliefs of the Department B employ"u" '

torrard their workn especially prcduction standards, He does not appearto be. Better communication, improved supervision, and effective leader-ship apparenily are in order.(21 Stevens should calt another meeting with the production employees ofDepartmelt-B' indicating that he wishes to off-er to the group additionalper t inent in format iononproduct ionstandards.Next , t re1t rou loget � �

Preferabli it " "aoitional datashoufd be in a visual form to increase their effectivdness. Also, it isadvisable for Stevens to talk informally with leaders oi o"p"rtment Bempfoyees t-o discover why-the group recommended tower productionstandards. He can use this information to shape friJpiesentation at theforthcoming meeting,

The best approach for Stevens to foltow at the meeting is to:(al thank each member for his or her interest and past participation,(bl advise that additional information, vitat to the modification of pre-sent production standards, will be presented, foltowed UV a g.oupdiscussion,

(c) present the adrJitional information in a forthright manner,(dl remain with the group and join in the discussion from which thedecision on production standards wifl evorve.

(21 Belore LAB Chemical Company management can controt costs, theyneed to know which costs ara out of line, within whosa area of-responsi-bility has the cost varianco appeared, what is the ggtuse of the cosi vari-snce' and who has the responsibility to correct the cause of the vari-gnce.

Standard costs and the variances from them help management tobegin to answer thess issues. Specifically, the variances indicate wheremanagement should begin its invesfigation:(al Price variations-the information to identity the causes of the price

variances usually can be obtained in the Purchasing Depart-unt. Areview of purchasing procedures and rccords woutd disclosewhether the variances wena caused by permanent changes inprices, poor purchasing practices, or poor production sJhedulingrequiring incurence of extra costs to expedite shipments. Theinformation obtained wifl identity the department responsible forthe extra cost and provide clues to improve the control.

(bl Mix and yield variances-the information to identity the cause ofthesa variances usually can be obtained in the proiuction depart-ments. A review of materials records and handling procedurcswould disclose whether the mix variance was caused by the use ofwrrong proportions, entering excess materials into the processbecause of carelessness, or adjustment of the mix to accommodateoff-standard materials quality caused by the same factorr. Thus, theyield variance would often be explained by the same information.Nonstandard proportions would often result in nonstandard yieldsand excess materials inputs. Tho information obtained would hetpidentify the department responsible and provide clues to improvethe control,

(21 Clearly indicating where the responsibilit ies for price and quantity vari-ances tie and charging the variances to the departments with initialresponsibility reduces the conflict but does not eliminate it.

The specific cause(sl of the variance needs to be determined beforethere can be certainty that the proper department is charged. For exam-ple' if materials were purchased at higher than standard prices becausethe Manufacturing Department required a rush order, then the price vari-ance is the responsibility of the Manufacturing Department. l l the materi- :

als provided by the Purchasing Department were of slighUy lower qualitythan specifications required, due to careless purchasing, the excessquantity used by Manufacturing is the Purchasing Department's respon-sibitity.

However, careful thought would require analysis of the situation to detenmine (al if, on an overall basis, the department is being operated eco-nomically (if so, then dismissal may be undesirable|; and (b| if the causeof such behavior is due to management reaction to unfavorable vari-ances without regard to size, or to undue emphasis by managsment onindividual variances to the erclusion of measurement of overall perfor-mance.

lf it is assumed that the manager is porforming satisfactorily on anoverall basis and should not be dismissed, then two possible solutionscan be considered:(al Revise reporting methods to emphasize overall performanco.(b) Revise reporting on labor to combine direct and indirect labor into

(3) The first journal entry is in accordance with the discussion in part (ll as.the most appropriatE method of handling variances. Cost of Goods Soldis charged-with the excess cost above what it should have taken to com-plete the proiect, based on a nonnal (attainable) standard. Tho costs

ivariancei| resutting from the differencs between the theoretical stan-dard the normal standard should be prorated to cost of goods sold andinventories, based on the relative proportion of the associated cost con-tained in each. ln the situation presented, the entire $l'OOO is charged toFinished Goods tnventory instead of being prorated to inventories andcost and goods sold because the production is included solely in finishedgoods inventorY.

The second;ournal entry can be justified as an appropriate methodfor disposition of the variance primarily on practical considerations buthas litge theoretical justification. The practice of charging all variancesto Cost of Goods Sold (or against current revenue! often has been justi-fied on the grounds of simplicity, convenience, and immateriality.

The last entry woufd be appropriate where it is desired to adiust thestandard cost inventory to actual costs. Many accountants would advo-cate this entry in the circumstances presented because the inventorywould then bi stated at actual costs of production. However, when thismethod of variance disposition is foltowed, the asset inventory will becarried on the financial statements at an amount that exceeds the costthat should have been incurred. Thus, inefficiencies in operations anebeing capitalized as assets in the financiat statements when this methodis appl ied.

(rl In absorpuon costiDgr Bts curently omployed by RGB Corporation, firedfactory overhead is considered a product cost rather than a period cost.Firad tadory overhead is appfied to production based on a normalcapacity of I'ooo,ooo units. Thu3, the fixed factory overhead is appliedto products in the samo manner as variable costs, even though it doesnot vary with production. In addition, lf production ano sai.s are notequal during the year, fired factory oveihead is deferred as part of inven-tory costs-(when production erceeds sales) or releas"o ,pon sales of theInventory (when sales erceed producUon)-

During 2oA, production exceeded sales, rcsulting in a portion of thefired factory overhead being Inventoried in finisheigooo-s-rather thanbeing expensed in 2oA. This resulted in 2oA operatin! income being tar-ger than lt woufd have been ll all fired factory overhead had beencharged against 20A sales revenue. Then in 2oB, sales exceeded produc-tlon, resulting In more fired factory overhead being ctrargeo against 2oBsales nevenuo than was incurred ii 2oB. First, RniJtreo gioos were sotdout of inventory which meant lhaf th9 part of fired factiry overtread thatwas incurred in 2oA and inventoried in 2oA was charged against 2oBsales revenue. Second, fired factory overhead ,^r"" uid"raiptied in 2oBbecause only 85o,ooo units lvere produced (isorooo units less than nor-mal capacity used in determining itre tactory overhead iaie). This result-cd In an unfavorable votume variance that was charged to the cost ofgoods sold in 2oB.

for internal management decision-making purposes, because fixedcosts alt not arbitrarily allocated between accounting periods (oramong different products, eafes territories, operating dlvisions,etc.!.

(bl Fired costs ars raported at Incurred vatueg (and not absorbed val-ues|' Increasing opportunity for mono effective controt of thesecosts.

(cl Profits vary directly with sales volume and are unaffected bychanges in inventory levefs.

(dl Analysis of the cost-volume-profit ralaUonship is facilitated, andmanagement is able to determine the brsak-oven point and total :profit for a given volume of prcduction and sales.

The dlsadvantages of direct costing for Internal reporting inctude the fol-lowing:(al Management may fail to consider properly the fired cost element in

long-range pricing decisions.(bl Direct costing lacks acceptabitity for external financial raporting or

as a basis for computing tarable income. As a consequonce, addi-tional record-keeping costs must be incured to use direct costing.(c) The separation of costs into fixed and variable elements is a costi-ypnocess.

The factors that Hall Company should consider before deciding whetheror not to submit a bid at the maximum allowable price include whetherHall has orcass capacity, whether there aro available iobs on which oarrl-ings might be greater, whether the marimum bid of $.O15 contributestoward covering the frxed costs, and whether this iob could lead to moFoprofitable business with Wyant in the future.The competitive environment of the industry should have been consid'ered by Wyant Memorial Hospital to determine whether or not a lowerprice could be obtained through competitive bidding. The hospital shouldalso have considered that cost-plus pricing is not usually viewed uni'formly by prospestive bidders, is difficult to compute lor products pro-duced in smass' quantity, and is better suited lor products that areunique and high priced.

Alternative (c) affords the lowest estimated differential cost.(2', There ane several noncost factors, or factors that are difficult to cost,

that Valbec should consider in conjunctiorwith the cost analysis of tirethree alternative courses of action. Relevant factors include:(al Consider the degree to which Vatbec's negular tabor force is wilting

to work overtime.(b) The tabor force may plan on ovsrtime pay as part of their normal

work situation. lf wages should be reduced because overtime is notscheduled, due to the use of temporary worke6 or an expandedlabor folee, then the morale of the tabor force coutd deteriorate,laborers might seek wo$ elsewhere, laborers might seek base payinc*ases, or the tabor force might decr€ase its efficiency.(c) Overtime does provide a certain degree of flexibility, should salesvolume and patterns not occur according to the fo#casted plan.(d) lf the labor force is to be expanded, Valbec must be sure there is anadequate supply of skilled workers.

l2l Net revenue Potential:The cofored paper brochurg prcvides the most net revenue if it can bemailed at bulk mail rates; however, there is a risk of earning only thethird best revenus if it must be mailed first class. The glossy paper' ifIt can be mailed on time, produces tAe second largest amount of netngvsnue; however, the ranking slips to the fourth best net revenue if itis mailed late. The plain paper bulk mail brochure has a substantiallylower net levenue than any of the other alternatives'

lmage as a well-run organization:The image would be based upon comparison of two things related to

. the mail campaign-the quatity of the brochure (appearance| and thearrival of the brochure immediatety following the radio and televisioncoverage. The glossy brochure, if it arrives on time, would probablyconvey the best image; however, there is some risk that it would notarrive on a timely basis. The colored paper brochure would be the nextbest in terms of guality, but the bulk mail alternative raises some riskof a timety receipt of the brochures by the potential donors. The plainpaper brochure would be ths poorest quality, and because it is to besent bulk mail, it runs the additional risk of not being delivered on atimely basis.

lmage as a fiscally responsible organization:The image of fiscal responsibility will be based on a comparison ofpotential donorst perceptions regarding the cost of the brochure andcost of the mailing. The glossy brochure mailed first class may be per-ceived as an extravagance by the potential donors. At the otherextreme, the potential donorc may conclude that the plain paper bulkmail alternative is an indication that the organization is unwilling todevote adequate financial nesources to the fund-raising efforts.

The foundation staff must weigh the consequences of each of the alter-natives and the risks associated with them on the three criteria to selecta specilic alternative. The staff has good information on net revenuepotential, but needs to obtain information on the effects of the quality ofthe brochure, the timeliness of the mailing, and the type of mailing onpotential donorst opinions as to what is a well-run and fiscally responsi-ble organization.

Heavy duty fiber constraint 80r + 40y = 42,OOO lbs.Regular fiber constraint: 2Ar + 4Ay = 24,OOO lbs.Solving by slmultaneous equations:

80r+ 4Oy = 42,0002Ox+ 4oy = 24,OOO60r = 18,OOO

r = 3OO rolls of commercial carpet80 (300) + 4gy = 42,OOO24,OOO + 4ty = 42,OO0

4Oy = t I 'O0Oy = 45O rolls of residential carpet

Leastan cannot manufacture these quantities of commerciat and residen-tial carpeting, because the direet labor constraint will be erceeded:Labor constraint 15r + 15y = lO,5O0Using the requircment (lf solution:

Linear pnogramming is a mathematical model for solving two or moneunknowns in two or more equations. Linear pnogramming is used todetermine a mir of products that will marimize the contribution marginor minimize costs by identifying the inputs, outputs, and their relatedassumptions and limitations (constraints) and combining them in themodel. Linear programming can be used to alfocate limited facilit ies andresources among their many alternative uses in such a way that optimumbenefit is derived from their utitization.

The linear programming modol starts with an objecuve or goal to beachieved aubject to a set of limiting factors, calted constraints. The lin-oar pnogramming model allours the usor to optimize (marimize or mini-mlze| the objecUve function subject to tha constrainG. The cantralassumption ln all linear pnogramming models In linearity. The linearityassumption means that the objective function and the Constraints in lhemodel can be expressed in the form of linear equations. The constraintscan be in tha form of strict sgualities, upper bounds (less than or equalto constraints)r and lower bounds (greater tAan or equal to constraints|.Linear pnogramming methods are applied mainty to allocation problems,1.o., allocating scance nesourcos among atternativo usas according toaome objective. The scarco rosourcas for a business firm may includepersonnel, material, equipment, or capitat. The objective fun&ion maytake the form of profit marimization or soma other measuno of desiredbenefiL In this particular cass, linear pnogramming is appropriatebecause the firm of Miller, Lombardi, and york hasan o-uieciive in theform of profit maximization subject to restricted r.sou.cis, i.e., staffavailable in the short run is restricted in each area.The following data woutd be needed to develop the tinear programmingmodel for Miller, Lombardi, and york(a!

Knight is probably corect in her assessment that the proposed capital invest-ment framework grants too much freedom to the divisions. Neoglobeb long-runperformance depends on its capital investments. While divisions must havesome responsibility for capital investments for the proposed organization stnrc-ture to be effective, corporate management must maintain adequate control todirect the future courss of the firm. Under the proposed frameworlg divisionmanagement controls a substantial portion of the capital budget, and in someyear:i' few funds would be available for investment by corporate management.The present proposal would reduce corporate managementb ability to diminisha product line, and it also would impair managementb ability to have adeguatefunds available for investment in new businesses.

Capital investment procedures should involve both division and corporatemanagements in such a way that division management stilt should be able toinfluence the future direction of the firm. Such procedures might include classi-fication of capital projects into groups, some of which could be approved bydivision management without corporate management study,

An alternative to the Neoglobe capitat investment program might have the fol-lowing features:(a) All proposed investment proiects would be classified according to their

natunHeplacemen! cost savings, erpansion.(b) Replacement and cost savings proiects could be adopted by division man-

agement alone, without approval of corporate management, provided anindividual project did not exceed a specified doltar timit and the totat ofsuch projects did not exceed another specified dollar timiL The doltar lim-its would reflect the nature and size of each divisionb operations.

(c) All oxpansion projects, or other projects that exceed the doltar limit,would be submitted to corporate management for evaluation andapproval.

The process of planning for and ovaluating long-terrn commltments of resourcesis normally relerred to as capital erpenditure planning, evaluating, and controt,or capital budgeting, The capital budget is distinct in that it focuses on thelong-term effect of lesources committed. lts primary objectives arc to providemanagement with (ll a formal process to chart its futura coutlsef (21 a means ofranking and selecUng among altornative nesounce commitments to maximizercturn on investment and (3) I pnogr:lm for ongoing evaluation of extantnesourco commitmsnts.

Any significant resource commitment is viewed as a projecl Hence, the capi-tal budget is composed of projects, some of which are in pnocess and some oiwhich are pr,oposed. Each project affocts significant periods of time in theongoing life of a company. A project often involves the evaluation of atternativesand the purchase of such assets as property, plant, and equipment. lt shouldalso consider, howevor, any proposal or pnogriam that reguires a signifieantresounco commitment over an extended period, such as the development of newproducts' opening now markets, and the design and development of major com-puter pnograms.

Onca nesources have been committed to a particular project, the projectreguires ongoing evaluation; i,e., are the projectb objeciives being meti lf not,it needs to be evaluated in terms of wtrether the project should UJ iutained asis, modified if possible, or abandoned.

McAngus can make significant use of capital expenditure planning, evaluat-ing, and control. At the division level, projects will need to be defined in termsof those elements of the plant, or operation of the division, over wtrich the man-ager has control. On the basis of the facts given, the division manager hasauthority to operate his or her plant essentialty as if it were an independentcompany. Hence, anything affecting operations, which has required or wiltrequire significant resource commitment over i significant period of time,should form an integral part of that divisionb capital budgel At the top manage-ment level, the president may view each division as a project, particutarly forevaluation purposes. The other described activities of top management (investi-gating and evaluating_such things as new markets, etc.) are projects in the capi-tal budgeting sense. These and othel new proposats may be defined, anafyzed,and evaluated using a variety of avairabre tectrnigues.

l2l Steps recommended by the Sfaadards of Ethical Conduct for Pnctitioners of*lanagement Accounting and Financial *lanagement that H. Dodge shouldfollow in attempting to resolve this situation are as follows:(al Dodge should first investigata and see if Evans Company has an

(bl Since it sppears tAat G. \f,/atson, Dodgeb superior, is involved, thereis no need to confront Watson or discuss this lssue with Watson anyfurther. Dodge should present the sltuaUon to the nert higher level,the vice president of finance, tor rpsolution.

(c) lf Dodge does not receivo any saUsfacUon, Dodge should continueto successively higher levels, including the audit committee and theboard of directors, if nscessary.

(d) Dodge should clarify the concepts of the issus at hand in a confi-denUal discussion with an obiective advisor, i,o., a peor.

(el lf the situation is still unlesolved after erlrausting all levels of inter-nal revieq Dodge will have no nocourse but to resign and submit aninformativo memorandum to an appropriate representative of theorganization.

(0 Unless legally bound (which does not appear to be the case in thissituation), it is inappropriate to communicate this situation toauthorities or individuals outside the organization,

(g) Dodge may consult with personal legal counsel.c22-6

(1) By referring to the IMA's Sfandards of Ethicat Conduct and taking intoconsideration the specific standards of competence, corfidentiality,integrity, and objectivity, L.

Obiectiviw. Tho responsibility to communicate information fairly andobjectivety, as welt as to disclosa fully all relevant informaUon that couldrrasonably be erpected to influsnco reports and rtcommendations pre-sented, is being hampered. The board of directors will not have the fullscope of information they should have when they ars pnesented with theanallsis.

l2l By refening to the Slandards of Ethical Conduct, L Forrest should takethe following steps to resolve this sifuation:(a) Forrest should first investigate and see if lDl has an established pol-

icy for resolution of ethical conflicts and, if so, follow thoseprocedures.

(bl lf this policy does not resolve the ethical conflict, the next stepwould be for Forrest to discuss the situation with his supervisor,Rolland, and see if he can obtain resolution. Ons possible solutionmay be to present a "base casst' and sensitivity analysis of theinvestmenL Forrest should make it clear to Rolland that he has aproblem and is seeking guidance.

(c) lf Forrest cannot obtain a satisfactory resolution with Rolland,Forrest could take the situation up to the next layer of management,and inform Rolland that is being done. lf this is not satisfactoryForrest should pnogress to the next level, and eventually to all high-er levels of management until the issue is resolved (i.e., the presi-dent, audit committee, or board of directors).

(dl Since Rolland has instructed him not to discuss the situation withanyono else at lDl, Forest may want to have a confidential discus-sion with an objective advisor to clarify relevant concepts andobtain an understanding of possible courses of action. Forrest maywant to talk to a close professional friend or the IMA "EthicsHotline" lor this purpose.

(e) lf Forrest cannot satisfactority resolve the situation within the orga-nization, he may resign from the company and submit an informa-tive memo to an appropriate person in lDl (i.e., the president, auditcommittee, or board of directors).

(f) Forrest may consult with personal legal counset.

The net present value method does consiierlhe lime value d mon€y.

Cashreceived in early periods has more value thancash received in later periods, because onlythe cash received in the early periods can bereinveslsd. As a consequence, the use of arat€ in ercoss ol the reinvestment rate in thenol presonl value method wil l result in an over-statement of the value of cash recsived earty inthe life of the capital erpendilure project.

(3) Using the internal rate of return method, Project A is superior to ProjectB. Using the net present value method, Project B is more attractive thanA. The decision hinges on assumptions made about reinvestment of'cashinflow. Theory suggests resorting to the net present vatue methodbecause the cost of capital reinvestment assumption implicit in thismethod is considered more realistic than the internal rate of returnmethod, where a reinvestment at the project's internal rate is assumed.

(31 The net present value of Project I ls greater than the net present vatueof Project 2 ($15r42o compared to $12,6751; however, the internal rate ofrsturn lor Proiect t ls less than the fnternal rate ol return for proiect 2ll5.A7%o comparod to I e.9B%ol. As a tosult, lt ls not altogether clearwhich profect ls the moro profitabte. The difference In rankings occur:;because of the dlffersnce In the pattern of cash flows; 1.e., the cashInflor,Ys for ProJect 1 are smaller ln early yearc and targer in later yearsthan those of Profect 2. The Internal rate of return for Proiect 2 ii sub-stanUally larger than the companyrs weighted averago cost of capital. ltmay not be possible for the cash flours roceived in early yea6 to be rein-vested at a rate of return equal to the internal rate of return of project 2;consequently' cash florrvs rcceived from Project 2 may not be as vaiuableto the firm as indicated by tha internat rate of return. On the other hand,the weighted avorago cost of capital is a realistic earnings rate erpectedby the company ovor the Investment horizon. Assuming that there is nodifference ln the riskiness of the expected cash flor,ns ior the two pro-jects' lt may be safer to raly on the net present value ranking than theintemal rate of return. This woutd mean that Project I shoutO Ue setect-ed.

In this caso,the purchase of general-purpose equlpment, the constnrctlon of special-purpose equipment, and the lEase ol general-purposa equipment are allacceptable to Egelston CorporaUon, because the net present value of allthree proposals is positive,

Egelston Corporation should attempt to marimize the earnings thatcan be obtalned from the funds available for capital Investments. Whencomparing a set ol mutually erclusive alternatives, the atternative withthe largest net present value will result in a marimization of stockholderwealth. Accordin gly, constnr ctio n of special-p urpose eq ui pm ent ap p earsto be the most attrastive alternative. Howeve4 the net present valueshould be related to any required investment by calculating a net presentvalue index as follours:

Purchase of special-purpose equipment:

(11 (al The payback method measures the number of years required for theaftertax cash inflows to fully nocover the initial cash investment in aproject. The payback method emphasizes an organizationb financialliquidity and the riskiness of the capital project in terms of invest-ment recovery. Since long-term forecasts contain mone uncertaintythan short-term forecasts (i.e., it is easier to predict what will hap-pen next year than what will happen lO years from now), the leastrisky projects will have the shortest payback period.

(bl The net present value method recognizes the time value of moneyby discounting the after-tax cash flows for a proiect over its life totime zero using the firmb weighted average cost of capital. The netpresent value is the difference between the present value of the ,after*tax cash inflows, measured over the life of the capital project,and the cash outflow required to undertake the capital project.Projects that have a positive net present value are acceptable, whilethose that have a negative net present value are unacceptable.

(c) The internal rate of return method (also called the discounted cashflow rate of return method) incorporates the time value of money bydetermining the compound interest rate for a capital project thatwould result in a net present value of zero. A proposal would beacceptable if the internal rate of return erceeds the weighted aver-age cost of capital, and unacceptable if it is less.

(21 ln order to maximize the value of the company, Caledonia Division shoutduse the net present value method or the internal rate of return method todecide which capital projects should be inctuded in the capital budgetsubmitted to Quible Industries. Both of these methods would identifyProiects A, B, D, E, and F as acceptable (each has a positive net presentvalue and an internal rate of return in excess of the companyb hurdlerate)r and Project C as unacceptable (the net present value is negativeand the internal rate of return is less than the company's hurdte rate).However, Proiects A and D are mutually exctusive (meaning that ultimate-ly only one of the two can be pursued). The selection between the twodepends upon the criteria used to rank the proiecB, i.e., the capital"expenditure evaluation method employed in the selection process. tf thenet present value method is used, Galedonia would select Proiect Dbecause it has a higher net present value than project A (s24,g74 for Dcompared to 3691683 for A!. On the other hand, if the internal rate ofreturn method is used, Caledonia would select Project A because it has ahigher internal rate of return than Project D (gsoh for A compare d to 22ohlor D).

(31 In order to maximize the value of the company in this capital rationinggituation' the net present value should be used to select the projects tobe included In the capital budget because the cash inflows aro assumedto be ruinvested at the hurdle rate (the company has a demonstratedearning rate equal to lts weighted averiago cost of capita!|, The intirnalrate of return should not be used, because it violates the rsinvestmentrate assumpUon and may be unrellable as a basis for maxlmizing thevalue of the company in a capital rationing situation. Using the net pre-sent value method, the most profitable combination ol proiests withinthe $45O'00O budget constraint would be to include Projects & B, and Fbecause this combinatlon yields the greatest total net present value (netprssent vafue of $l621929 for an initial investment of $4sorooo).

(1) The 18.2o/o rate of return on the investment differs from tha 24oh internalrate of return because the methods used to measure the returns are dif-ferent

Tha return on investment (18.2Vo1calculation is based on accrualaccounting concepts. lf the reduced operating expenses-legs deprecia-tion-remain constant as planned, the numerator in the ROI fraction willnot change over the life of the investmenL The denominator in the frac-tion, the investment base, decreases each year by the amount of theannual depreciation. Gonsequently, the rate of return calcutated willincrease each year oyer the life of the investmenl

The internal rate of return calculation PA%l is based on discountedcash flow concepts. The cash flows erpected to be received over the lifeof the investment discounted to the acquisition date aL 24Vo, eracttyequaled the initial cost of the machine. This measuns of return on invest-ment provides a percentage that is constant for each year of lifE of theinvestmenl This rate can be computed for each yearb actual operatingresults if the annual savings in operating erpenses ane constant and thenew equipment is depreciated using the effective interest method basedon an interest rato of 24o/o. The method would be essentially the same asthat emptoyed in amortizing leaseholds and bonds. Tho depreciationcharge each year would have to be such that the numerator and thedenominator of the ROt computation would change at the same rate inorder to keep the annual return on investment ratio constant.

l2l Recap Corporation can restructure the data from the cash flow analysisto make lt consistent with ths accounUng reports (which containstraight-line depreciationf received by the department manager. Oncethe investment ls accepted on the basis of its internal rate of return, thedata can be converted into the lormat consistent with the accounUngbasis used for reporting. Annual contribution from the new investmentwould be calculated by subtracting the straight-line depreciation fromthe net cash operating savings. The accounfing book value for each ofthe years of the investment lifo would also be calculated. The annualcontribution would be divided by the investment base (book value| foreach year to obtain the rates of return. This would then present the man-sger with the different rates of return for each of the yeans of the invest-mentb life. Thus, the rates would be more comparable with the actualreturn on investment rates experienced each year.

Alternatively, rather than computing an annual rate of return, it maybe more expedient to comparo actual net cash operating savings eachyear with those forecast in the capital expenditure analysis, lf actualperiodic savings equal those forecast, tho internal rate of return woutdbe equal to the 24% budgeted.

l2l The case states that recommendations lor promotions and salaryincreases for plant manageni are influenced by the cornparison of the

budgeted return on capital emptoyed to tho actuai return. lt appears that

this ptant manager is reacting in direct response to this measunementsyrstem. T\ro evJnts have occurred outside his control (the sales declineand extra tand charges|, which will reduce his return on capital employedmeasure. He has responded by influencing those components of themeasure that he controts and that will improve this measure. Thered uced costs-traini n g, maintenance, ne pair, and certain labsr-wo uldnot affect sales volume in the short run. lt is also likely that reduction of

(11 Tho shortcomings, or possible inconsistencies, of using rate of return oncapital employed as the sole criterion to evatuate divisional managementperformance include the following:i") Rate of return on capitat employed tends to emphasize short-run

performance at the expense of long-run profitability. In order toimprove short-run profits, managers may make decisions that arenot in the best interest of tho company over the long run.

(bl Rate of return on capital emptoyed is not consistent with cash llowmodels used lor capital oxpenditure analysis and, therefore, ffiaYnot be comparabto for divisions that uso different accounting meth-ods or that havo assets purchased in different periods.

(c) Rato of return on capital employed may not be controllable to thssame ertent by al l division managers, i ,e., the divisions may sel l indifferent markets with different degrees ol product development'compeUtion, and consumer demand.

l2l The advantages of using mulUple measures ii evaluating divisional man-sgement performance include the following:(al Multiple performanco measunes provide a mone comprehensive pic-

ture of performance by considering a wider range of managementresponsibilit ies.

(b) Multiple performance moasunes emphasize nonquantitative as wellas quantitative aspects of performance, thereby providing an incen-tive for divisional managers to engage in desirable activities, suchas, research and development, employee development, andimprovement of market position, as well as to seek profitability.

(c) Multiple performance measunes will mitigate the problem of tryingto compare divisional perforrnance with a single measune that maybe computed on different bases in each division.

(d) Multiple performancs measunes include long-term as welt as short-term incentives, thereby emphasizing total performance rather thanjust short-term profit maximization,

(3) The problems or disadvantages of impfementing a system of multipleperformance measures include the following:(al The measurement criteria are not all equally quantifiable and, there-

fore, it may be difficult to compare the overalt performance of onedivision with another.

(b) Central managernent may have difficutty applying the criteria on aconsistent basis. Some criteria may be subjectively more heavilyweighted than other criteria at different points in time, and somecriteria may be in conflict with other criteria.

All three divisions have a reported rate of return on capital emptoyed inoxcess of the 2Oo/o target rate. However, Marine Division managementapparently turned down its Investment opportunity because tho invest-ment had a lower rate of return than the division (24oh for the investmentyersus 25oh for t:lls division|, which if accepted would havE lowered thedivisionb rate lor the year, thereby lowering the annual bonus. Similarly,Airline Division management appears to have avoided fleet replacementtor the samo neason (i.e., fleet replacement rEturn is 16% versus 21oh lorthe division for the year). Plastic Divisionb management has achievedthe marimum bonus allowable under the current bonus system andtherefore had no incentive to increase profit (which may have beenviewed as something that could simply increase next yearb budget). Thelevised liguras indicate that all three divisions are performlng welt; how-ever' Marine Division's residual income is greater than the other two divi-sions combined.

Airline Division ls making an adjusted profit of $2,235,OOO and residualincome ol $1'285'OOO. The adjusted rate of return on capital employed is47oh, which suggests that the target rate should be rovised in order toproperly evaluate it. Nevertheless, since the division is achieving monothan double the present target rate of 2Ooh and more than either of theother two divisions, it appears to be a very good investment. Howover,fleet replacement should be examined along with the computation ol anew adjusted rate of return on capital employed and residual incomg,Assuming that the $25,OOO,OOO capitat investment does not inctude anycorporate headquarters allocation and that the otd fixed assets have abook value equal to market value, tho recomputat ion fol lows:

Even when adjusted, the rate of return on capital omployed is abovethe corporate target level and the incremental residual income is posi-

tive. Furthermore, assuming that profits do not fall in the future' theroturn on assots employed should rise in the future because the amountof assets employed witi Oeclino due to depreciaUon. As a result' itappoans that from a quantitative perspective tho airline should not besoid. Nevertheless, the investment required to replace the fleet shouldbe evaluated using ono of the capital expenditure evaluation techniquesthat considers the time valuo of money (e.9., the net present valuemethod or the discounted cash flow rate of return method).

Frorn a qualitative perspective, factors such as spill-over businesstoffering a futl line to customers, ulUmato profitability vvhen the economyimprovls, possiblo advantags to a competitor from tho sate of the divi-sion, €tc,, may override quantitative analysis.

Tho bonus schemo should bo basod on nesidual incomo rather than rateof return on capital employed in order to avoid the problem of manageF;making suboptimal decisions from the corporationb overall perspective.

The divisional performance measures should be computed without allo'cations of corporate headquarters costs or assets, because such alloca-tions are arbitrary and divisional managers cannot control such costs orthe uss of such assets. Also, capital investments (such as the ones facedby the Marine Division and the Airtine Division) should be evaluated byusing the capital budgeting evaluation methods (such as the net presentvalue method or tho internal rate of return method)'

Disadvantages(al The plan omits accountability for all costs except lor production

costs. Therefore, manager:i may leel no obligation to control thecosts that aro shown below tho gross profit line.

Themanagement teamatMeyersServ icomaybe| ievethat theyhavo to work harder to achieve their bonusos because they areresponslble for all costs and must achieve overall efficient opera-tions to earn substantial bonuses.

The management team at Wellington Products may believe thatthey have less of an opportunlty to affect the size of the bonusesthey receive because onty changes in sales and/or product costswill increaso the gross ProfiL

These perceptions of Ineguity coul4lead to decreased motivationthat could'result in decreased divisional performanco,

ln termg ol what is best for the total company in the long run, omar prob'

aUty gt,ould not supply Defco with Electrical Fitting X1726 for ths 55 Per

unii pri"". In this ;s;, I appears that Omar and Defco 6erve different

miriets and do not represent closely related operating units. Omar oper-

ates at capacity; Defco does not. No mention is made of any other inter-

divisionat business, In the long run, Gunnco Gorporation is probably bet-

ter served lf omar is permitted to continue dealing with its regular cus'

tomers at the market price. lf Delco is having difficulties, the solutionp-uiury doeg not lie with temporary help

"! !f" sxpenso of another divi'

iion, *ttos" gales to regular custorners could be lost' The purposed

courso of acuon should not be toltowed unless it will yield a greater long-

run pront for the total company (Gunnco) T"n will any o-ther alternative.

Gunnco would be $5.5o better oif, in the short run, if Omar supptied '

Defco Electrical Fitting 11726 tor $5 and sold the brake unit for 949'5O'Assuming that the $s ier unit for fixed factory overhead and administra-

Uve erpensos r"pr"r"nts an allocation of tho costs Delco incurs, regard-

less of the brake unit order, Gunnco would lose $2.50 in cash flow for

oach fitting sotd to Defco, but would gain $B from each brake unit sold

by Defco.ln tha short nrn, there ls an advantago to Gunnco of transferringEfectrical Fitting 11726 at the SS price and, thus, selling the brake unit

for $49.50. To ilafe this happen, Gunnco witt have to overrule the deci-

sion ol Omarb managomenl This action would be counter to the purpos-

es of decentralized decision making. lf such action wens necessary on a

regular basis, the decentralized decision making inherent in the division-aliied organization would be a sham. Then the organizational structure is

inappropriate for the situation.On the other hand, if this is an occurnence of relative infrequency' tha

intervention of corporate management will not indicate inadequate orga-nizational structuro. lt may, however, create problems with division man'agements, tn the case at hand, if Gunnco management requires thatElectrical Fitting 11726 be transferred at $5r the result will be toenhance Defcob operating resutts at the sxpense of Omar. This certainlyis not in keeping with the concept that a managerb performance shouldbe measured on tho results achieved by the decision he or she controls.Omar is operating at capacity and wouid lose S2.5O (S7'5O - 35) for each -titting sold to Defco. The management performance of Omar is measuredby reiurn on investment and doitar profits. Selling to Defco at 35 per unitwould adversely affect thoso performanco measures'
