measurement of costs is desired Examples include a product, a service, a project, a customer, a brand category, an activity, and a department 2-2 Direct costs of a cost object are related to the particular cost object and can be traced to that cost object in an economically feasible (cost-effective) way Indirect costs of a cost object are related to the particular cost object but cannot be traced to that cost object in an economically feasible (cost-effective) way Cost assignment is a general term that encompasses the assignment of both direct costs and indirect costs to a cost object Direct costs are traced to a cost object while indirect costs are allocated to a cost object 2-3 Managers believe that costs that are traced to a particular cost object are more accurately assigned to that cost object than are allocated costs When costs are allocated, managers are less certain whether the cost allocation base accurately measures the resources demanded by a cost object Managers prefer to use more accurate costs in their decisions 2-4 Factors affecting the classification of a cost as direct or indirect include the materiality of the cost in question, available information-gathering technology, design of operations, and contractual arrangements 2-5 A variable cost changes in total in proportion to changes in the related level of total activity or volume An example is a sales commission that is a percentage of each sales revenue dollar A fixed cost remains unchanged in total for a given time period, despite wide changes in the related level of total activity or volume An example is the leasing cost of a machine that is unchanged for a given time period (such as a year) 2-6 A cost driver is a variable, such as the level of activity or volume, which causally affects total costs over a given time span A change in the cost driver results in a change in the level of total costs For example, the number of vehicles assembled is a driver of the costs of steering wheels on a motor-vehicle assembly line 2-7 The relevant range is the band of normal activity level or volume in which there is a specific relationship between the level of activity or volume and the cost in question Costs are described as variable or fixed with respect to a particular relevant range 2-8 A unit cost is computed by dividing some amount of total costs (the numerator) by the related number of units (the denominator) In many cases, the numerator will include a fixed cost that will not change despite changes in the denominator It is erroneous in those cases to multiply the unit cost by activity or volume change to predict changes in total costs at different activity or volume levels 2-1 To download more slides, ebook, solutions and test bank, visit

Merchandising-sector companies purchase and then sell tangible products without changing their basic form, for example retailing or distribution Service-sector companies provide services or intangible products to their customers, for example, legal advice or audits 2-10 Manufacturing companies typically have one or more of the following three types of inventory: Direct materials inventory Direct materials in stock and awaiting use in the manufacturing process Work-in-process inventory Goods partially worked on but not yet completed Also called work in progress Finished goods inventory Goods completed but not yet sold 2-11 Inventoriable costs are all costs of a product that are considered as assets in the balance sheet when they are incurred and that become cost of goods sold when the product is sold These costs are included in work-in-process and finished goods inventory (they are ―inventoried‖) to accumulate the costs of creating these assets Period costs are all costs in the income statement other than cost of goods sold These costs are treated as expenses of the accounting period in which they are incurred because they are expected not to benefit future periods (because there is not sufficient evidence to conclude that such benefit exists) Expensing these costs immediately best matches expenses to revenues 2-12 No Service sector companies have no inventories and, hence, no inventoriable costs 2-13 Direct material costs are the acquisition costs of all materials that eventually become part of the cost object (work in process and then finished goods), and that can be traced to the cost object in an economically feasible way Direct manufacturing labor costs include the compensation of all manufacturing labor that can be traced to the cost object (work in process and then finished goods) in an economically feasible way Manufacturing overhead costs are all manufacturing costs that are related to the cost object (work in process and then finished goods), but that cannot be traced to that cost object in an economically feasible way Prime costs are all direct manufacturing costs (direct material and direct manufacturing labor) Conversion costs are all manufacturing costs other than direct material costs 2-14 Overtime premium is the wage rate paid to workers (for both direct labor and indirect labor) in excess of their straight-time wage rates Idle time is a subclassification of indirect labor that represents wages paid for unproductive time caused by lack of orders, machine breakdowns, material shortages, poor scheduling, and the like 2-2 To

computing a product cost include pricing and product mix decisions, contracting with government agencies, and preparing financial statements for external reporting under generally accepted accounting

Direct and indirect costs, effect of changing the classification of a cost item (continuation of 2-16) MOP‘s managers might prefer that energy costs be directly traced to various products because in general, the greater the proportion of economically traceable costs, the more accurate will be the estimated cost of each cost object and hence the better the managerial decisions (like product pricing) based on those cost estimates Since energy costs were substantial ($90 million out of $150 million of manufacturing overhead), tracing them directly to cost objects would significantly increase the accuracy of the cost estimates Direct materials costs Direct manufacturing labor costs Direct energy costs Other manufacturing overhead costs Total manufacturing costs Supreme $ 84.0 14.0 39.8 16.8 $154.6 (in millions) Deluxe Regular $ 54.0 $62.0 28.0 8.0 40.7 9.5 33.6 9.6 $156.3 $89.1 Units produced (millions) Cost per unit 80 $ 1.93 120 $ 1.30 100 $0.89 Cost per unit (before analysis) Cost per unit (after analysis) Effect of analysis on cost per unit $1.75 $1.93 higher $ 1.38 $ 1.30 lower $0.94 $0.89 lower Before Shore‘s analysis, the Deluxe and Regular product lines were being overcosted and the Supreme line was being undercosted Shore‘s analysis resulted in $60 million of the $150 million of ―overhead costs‖ becoming directly traceable to products It showed that the Supreme line consumes the most energy relative to the volume of production With more accurate direct costs, and therefore a more accurate allocation of the overheads of $60 million, Supreme‘s cost per unit is more than in the old cost system, while the cost per unit of Deluxe and Regular is less than in the old cost system 2-4 To download more slides, ebook, solutions and test bank, visit http://downloadslide.blogspot.com 2-18 (15–20 min.)

Interpretation of statements (continuation of 2-31) The schedule in 2-31 can become a Schedule of Cost of Goods Manufactured and Sold simply by including the beginning and ending finished goods inventory figures in the supporting schedule, rather than directly in the body of the income statement Note that the term cost of goods manufactured refers to the cost of goods brought to completion (finished) during the accounting period, whether they were started before or during the current accounting period Some of the manufacturing costs incurred are held back as costs of the ending work in process; similarly, the costs of the beginning work in process inventory become a part of the cost of goods manufactured for 2007 The sales manager‘s salary would be charged as a marketing cost as incurred by both manufacturing and merchandising companies It is basically an operating cost that appears below the gross margin line on an income statement In contrast, an assembler‘s wages would be assigned to the products worked on Thus, the wages cost would be charged to Work in process and would not be expensed until the product is transferred through Finished Goods Inventory to Cost of Goods Sold as the product is sold The direct-indirect distinction can be resolved only with respect to a particular cost object For example, in defense contracting, the cost object may be defined as a contract Then, a plant supervisor working only on that contract will have his or her salary charged directly and wholly to that single contract Direct materials used = $320,000,000 ÷ 1,000,000 units = $320 per unit Depreciation = $ 80,000,000 ÷ 1,000,000 units = $ 80 per unit Direct materials unit cost would be unchanged at $320 per unit Depreciation cost per unit would be $80,000,000 ÷ 1,200,000 = $66.67 per unit Total direct materials costs would rise by 20% to $384,000,000 ($320 per unit × 1,200,000 units), whereas total depreciation would be unaffected at $80,000,000 Unit costs are averages, and they must be interpreted with caution The $320 direct materials unit cost is valid for predicting total costs because direct materials is a variable cost; total direct materials costs indeed change as output levels change However, fixed costs like depreciation must be interpreted quite differently from variable costs A common error in cost analysis is to regard all unit costs as one—as if all the total costs to which they are related are variable costs Changes in output levels (the denominator) will affect total variable costs, but not total fixed costs Graphs of the two costs may clarify this point; it is safer to think in terms of total costs rather than in terms of unit costs 2-17 To download more slides, ebook, solutions and test bank, visit http://downloadslide.blogspot.com 2-33 (25–30 min.)

Comprehensive problem on unit costs, product costs If pounds of direct materials are used to make each unit of finished product, 100,000 units × lbs., or 200,000 lbs were used at $0.70 per pound of direct materials ($140,000 ÷ 200,000 lbs.) (The direct material costs of $140,000 are direct materials used, not purchased.) Therefore, the ending inventory of direct materials is 2,000 lbs $0.70 = $1,400 Direct materials costs Direct manufacturing labor costs Plant energy costs Indirect manufacturing labor costs Other indirect manufacturing costs Cost of goods manufactured Manufacturing Costs for 100,000 units Variable Fixed Total $140,000 $ – $140,000 30,000 – 30,000 5,000 – 5,000 10,000 16,000 26,000 8,000 24,000 32,000 $193,000 $40,000 $233,000 Average unit manufacturing cost: $233,000 ÷ 100,000 units = $2.33 per unit $20,970 (given) = $2.33 per unit = 9,000 units Finished goods inventory in units: Units sold in 2007 = Beginning inventory + Production – Ending inventory = + 100,000 – 9,000 = 91,000 units Selling price in 2007 = $436,800 ÷ 91,000 = $4.80 per unit Revenues (91,000 units sold × $4.80) Cost of units sold: Beginning finished goods, Jan 1, 2007 Cost of goods manufactured Cost of goods available for sale Ending finished goods, Dec 31, 2007 Gross margin Operating costs: Marketing, distribution, and customer-service costs Administrative costs Operating income $436,800 $ 233,000 233,000 20,970 162,850 50,000 212,030 224,770 212,850 $ 11,920 Note: Although not required, the full set of unit variable costs is: Direct materials cost Direct manufacturing labor cost Plant energy cost Indirect manufacturing labor cost Other indirect manufacturing cost $1.40 0.30 0.05 0.10 0.08 = $1.93 per unit manufactured Marketing, distribution, and customer-service costs $1.35 per unit sold 2-23 To download more slides, ebook, solutions and test bank, visit http://downloadslide.blogspot.com 2-38 (30 min.) Cost analysis, litigation risk, ethics Reasons for Keely not wanting Nash to include the potential litigation costs include the following: (a) Genuine belief that the product has no risk of future litigation Note that she asserts ―she has total confidence in her medical research team.‖ (b) Concern that the uncertainties about litigation are sufficiently high to make any numerical estimate ―meaningless.‖ (c) Concern that inclusion of future litigation costs would cause the board of directors to vote against the project Keely may be ―overly committed‖ to the project and wants to avoid showing information that prompts questions she prefers not to be raised (d) Avoid ―smoking gun‖ memos being included in the project evaluation file Keely may believe that if subsequent litigation occurs, the plaintiffs will ―inappropriately‖ use a litigation cost line item as ―proof‖ that FY knew the product had health problems that were known to management at the outset Unit costs excluding litigation costs Add unit litigation costs Total unit costs Add 20% markup Selling price per unit $100 110 210 42 $252 Since each treatment is planned to cost patients $300, the new selling price of $252 will drop the doctors‘ margin to only $48 (16%) from the planned margin of $180 (60%) based on FY‘s originally intended selling price of $120 This would probably result in the doctors not having much incentive to promote the product In fact, it may be quite possible that the doctors may not attempt to prescribe the treatment at such low margin because of their own exposure to liability Doctor‘s fee Doctor‘s minimum gross margin per treatment (40% Doctor‘s maximum cost per treatment FY‘s maximum selling price per unit = FY‘s maximum total cost = 180/1.2 = FY‘s per unit purchase cost = FY‘s maximum per treatment insurance cost = 2-24 300) $300 (120) 180 180 150 (100) $ 50 To download more slides, ebook, solutions and test bank, visit http://downloadslide.blogspot.com Nash has expressed his concerns to Keely He should try to negotiate for an insurance fee of no more than $50 per treatment and point out to Keely that at the $180 price, they can still make Enhance attractive to doctors and also profitable for FY If she still will not let Nash document and present his concerns and possible solutions, then he is in a difficult position (a) He may be implicated in future litigation, and in particular, he may be accused of withholding damaging evidence (b) Keely may find ways to portray him as not a ―team player‖ and this may damage his career trajectory and future in the company (c) He may have serious on-going issues with Keely‘s ethical standards He should talk to her, to her manager/supervisor, and in the worst case, be prepared to resign if his concerns are not heard and documented This type of problem is likely to occur again and again in the ―cosmeceuticals‖ business 2-39 (20–25 min.)
