Prepared by Debby Bloom-Hill CMA, CFM CHAPTER Cost-Volume-Profit Analysis Slide 4-2 Management Questions  Planning  What level of profit should be in the budget for the coming year?  Control  Did the manager responsible for production costs a good job of controlling costs?  Decision making  Should the price be increased? Slide 4-3 Learning objective 1: Identify common cost behavior patterns, and estimate the relation between cost and activity using account analysis and the high-low method Common Cost Behavior Patterns  Variable Costs  Costs which change directly in proportion to changes in quantity or activity  Fixed Costs  Costs which not change when quantity or activity volume changes Slide 4-4 Learning objective 1: Identify common cost behavior patterns, and estimate the relation between cost and activity using account analysis and the high-low method Common Cost Behavior Patterns  Mixed Costs  Costs that have both variable and fixed elements  Step Costs  Fixed for a range of output, but increase when upper bound of range is exceeded Slide 4-5 Learning objective 1: Identify common cost behavior patterns, and estimate the relation between cost and activity using account analysis and the high-low method Variable Costs  Costs that change in proportion to changes in volume or activity  An automobile manufacturer will need 400 tires to make 100 cars, but 4,000 tires to make 1,000 cars  A bakery will need eggs to make cake and 20 eggs to make 10 cakes  If activity increases by a certain percentage, cost increases by that same percentage Slide 4-6 Learning objective 1: Identify common cost behavior patterns, and estimate the relation between cost and activity using account analysis and the high-low method Test Your Knowledge A company has decided that direct labor costs are 100% variable Last month total direct labor costs were $125,000 and total direct labor hours worked were 10,000 1.What is the direct labor cost per hour? $125,000 / 10,000 hours = $12.50 per hour 3.Predict labor costs in a month when 12,000 labor hours are worked $12.50 per hour × 12,000 hours = $150,000 Slide 4-7 Learning objective 1: Identify common cost behavior patterns, and estimate the relation between cost and activity using account analysis and the high-low method Variable Costs Total Variable Cost = $91 × Units produced Slide 4-8 Learning objective 1: Identify common cost behavior patterns, and estimate the relation between cost and activity using account analysis and the high-low method Fixed Costs  Do not change in response to changes in activity level  Typical fixed costs are depreciation, supervisory salaries, and building maintenance • Rent for a bakery will not double if output increases from 100 to 200 cakes  If activity increases by a certain percentage, costs remain unchanged Slide 4-9 Learning objective 1: Identify common cost behavior patterns, and estimate the relation between cost and activity using account analysis and the high-low method Fixed Costs Total fixed cost = $94,000 Slide 4-10 Learning objective 1: Identify common cost behavior patterns, and estimate the relation between cost and activity using account analysis and the high-low method Multiproduct Analysis  The 2,500 units is made up of the 2:1 mix, so Rohr must sell 1,667 Model A (2/3 of 2,500) and 833 Model B units (1/3 0f 2,500) Slide 4-56 Learning objective 2: Perform cost-volume profit analysis for single and multiple products Multiproduct Analysis  Contribution Margin Ratio Approach  Products are substantially different  Calculate total company contribution margin ratio  Use total company contribution margin ratio to compute required sales in dollars  Total company fixed costs (common costs) are not included for contribution margin approach but used for contribution margin ratio approach Slide 4-57 Learning objective 2: Perform cost-volume profit analysis for single and multiple products A company with divisions has the following information available: Total sales $6,450,000 Total variable costs $4,706,000 Total direct fixed costs 1.Calculate total contribution margin ratio $484,000 ($6,450,000 – $4,706,000) / $6,450,000 = 2704 Total common fixed costs 3.Calculate total company break-even sales in $1,120,000 dollars ($484,000 + $1,120,000) / 2704 = $5,931,953 Slide 4-58 Learning objective 2: Perform cost-volume profit analysis for single and multiple products Multiproduct Analysis  Can calculate the contribution margin ratio for each product line  Can also easily calculate the break-even point for the various product lines  Break-even sales for garden tools is $95,000 / 1874 = $506,937  When total company sales increase, each product line’s sales will increase proportionately  Can use the contribution margin ratio to calculate the increase in profit for each product line Slide 4-59 Learning objective 2: Perform cost-volume profit analysis for single and multiple products Multiproduct Analysis Slide 4-60 Learning objective 2: Perform cost-volume profit analysis for single and multiple products Assumptions in CVP Analysis  Assumptions can affect the validity of the analysis Costs can be separated into fixed and variable components Total fixed cost and unit variable cost not change over the levels of interest Multiproduct analysis assumes the product mix does not change  Despite assumptions, CVP is useful Slide 4-61 Learning objective 2: Perform cost-volume profit analysis for single and multiple products Operating Leverage  Level of fixed versus variable costs in a company  A company with a high level of fixed costs has a high operating leverage  Companies with high operating leverage have large fluctuations in profit when sales increase or decrease  These companies are seen as more risky  High operating leverage is better when sales are expected to increase Slide 4-62 Learning objective 3: Discuss the effect of operating leverage, and use the contribution margin per unit of the constraint to analyze situations involving a resource constraint Constraints  Due to shortages of space, equipment or labor there can be constraints on how many items can be produced  Utilize contribution margin per unit to analyze situations  Calculate contribution margin per unit of constraint  Produce product with highest contribution margin per unit of constraint  Linear programming can solve multiple constraints Slide 4-63 Learning objective 3: Discuss the effect of operating leverage, and use the contribution margin per unit of the constraint to analyze situations involving a resource constraint A company can produce Product A or Product B using the same machinery Only 1,000 machine hours are available Slide 4-64 Learning objective 3: Discuss the effect of operating leverage, and use the contribution margin per unit of the constraint to analyze situations involving a resource constraint With the 1,000 available machine hours, Product A generates $20,000 of contribution margin Product B generates $50,000 of contribution margin Although Product A has the higher contribution margin per unit, Product B has the higher contribution margin per unit of constraint Slide 4-65 Learning objective 3: Discuss the effect of operating leverage, and use the contribution margin per unit of the constraint to analyze situations involving a resource constraint CHAPTER Cost-Volume-Profit Analysis Appendix Slide 4-66 Regression Analysis Slide 4-67
