managerial accounting
|
information is provided to meet the specific needs of a company's management
|
|
Direct costs
|
specially attributed to the cost object. indirect costs are not.
|
|
Direct materials cost
|
the cost of any material that is an integral part of the final product. must be significant portion of the total cost of the product
|
|
Factory overhead cost
|
costs that are incurred in the manufacturing process are combined and classified
|
|
Product costs
|
consists of the three elements of manufacturing cost: direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead
|
|
Period costs
|
generally classified into two categories:
- selling: incurred in marketing the product and delivering the sold products - administrative: incurred in the administration of the business and are not directly related to the manufacturing or selling functions |
|
1. Material Inventory
|
consists of the costs of the direct and indirect materials that have not yet entered the manufacturing process
|
|
2. Work in process Inventory
|
consists of the direct materials costs, the direct labor costs, and the factory overhead costs that have entered the manufacturing process
|
|
3. Finished Goods Inventory
|
consists of completed products that have not been sold yet.
|
|
Line
|
involved in making the product
|
|
Staff
|
supports the line, CEO, human resources, payroll
|
|
Cost accounting systems
|
accumulate manufacturing costs for the goods that are produced.
|
|
Job order cost system
|
provides a separate record for the cost of each quantity of product that passes through the factory
|
|
Process cost system
|
costs are accumulated for each of the departments or processes within the factory.
|
|
Selling expenses
|
incurred in marketing the product and delivering the sold product to customers. (Income statement)
|
|
Administrative expenses
|
incurred in the administration of the business and are not related to the manufacturing or selling functions. (Income statement)
|
|
Single plantwide factory overhead rate
|
all of the factory overhead is allocated to all the products
|
|
SPFOH =
|
total budgeted factory overhead cost/
Total budgeted plantwide allocation base (estimated) |
|
Common allocation bases include
|
direct labor hours, direct labor dollars, and machine hours.
|
|
Factory overhead consists of
|
factory and equipment, factory power, factory supplies, and indirect labor.
|
|
Total budgeted direct labor hours can be determined by
|
multiplying the budgeted manufacturing volume by the direct labor hours per unit.
|
|
Multiple production department factory overhead rate method
|
uses different rates for each production department to allocate factory overhead to products
|
|
Production department factory overhead rate
|
determined by dividing the budgeted production department factory overhead by the budgeted allocation base for each department.
|
|
Activity-based costing (ABC) method
|
uses cost of activities to determine product costs. Factory overhead costs are initially accounted for in activity cost pools
|
|
Activity cost pools
|
factory overhead are initially accounted for in these pools and are related to any given activity, such as machine usage, inspections, moving, production setups, and engineering activities
|
|
Engineering change order (ECO)
|
initiates an administrative process to change the design of a product.
|
|
Activity rates
|
determined by dividing the budgeted activity cost pool by the total estimated activity base
|
|
activity base
|
rather than allocation base, since the base is related to an activity cost pool.
|
|
Product costs
|
computed by multiplying the activity rate by the related activity-base quantity for each product.
|
|
The activity-based costing method provides
|
the most accurate product costs because activities are consumed in different proportions than the direct labor used in the two products.
|
|
Factory overhead cost per unit:
|
(number of dlh x spfoh rate) / number of units = cost per unit
|
|
Activity rate:
|
activity cost pool budgeted / estimated activity base = activity rate per unit
|
|
Activity-based factory overhead cost per unit:
|
activity-base usage x activity rate = activity cost
|
|
Planning
|
used by management to develop the organizations objectives
|
|
Directing
|
the process by which managers run day-to-day operations
|
|
Controlling
