OBJECTIVES Describe the essential features of a cost-volume-profit income statement The CVP income statement classifies costs and expenses as variable or fixed and reports contribution margin in the body of the statement Apply basic CVP concepts Contribution margin is the amount of revenue remaining after deducting variable costs It can be expressed as a per unit amount or as a ratio The breakeven point in units is fixed costs divided by contribution margin per unit The break-even point in dollars is fixed cost divided by the contribution margin ratio These formulas can also be used to determine units or sales dollars needed to achieve target net income, simply by adding target net income to fixed costs before dividing by the contribution margin Margin of safety indicates how much sales can decline before the company is operating at a loss It can be expressed in dollar terms or as a percentage Explain the term sales mix and its effects on break-even sales Sales mix is the relative proportion in which each product is sold when a company sells more than one product For a company with a small number of products, break-even sales in units is determined by using the weighted-average unit contribution margin of all the products If the company sells many different products, then calculating the break-even point using unit information is not practical Instead, in a company with many products, break-even sales in dollars is calculated using the weighted-average contribution margin ratio Determine sales mix when a company has limited resources When a company has limited resources, it is necessary to find the contribution margin per unit of limited resource This amount is then multiplied by the units of limited resource to determine which product maximizes net income Understand how operating leverage affects profitability Operating leverage refers to the degree to which a company’s net income reacts to a change in sales Operating leverage is determined by a company’s relative use of fixed versus variable costs Companies with high fixed costs relative to variable costs have high operating leverage A company with high operating leverage will experience a sharp increase (decrease) in net income with a given increase (decrease) in sales The degree of operating leverage can be measured by dividing contribution margin by net income a Explain the difference between absorption costing and variable costing Under absorption costing, fixed manufacturing costs are product costs Under variable costing, fixed manufacturing costs are period costs a Discuss net income effects under absorption costing versus variable costing If production volume exceeds sales volume, net income under absorption costing will exceed net income under variable costing by the amount of fixed manufacturing costs included in ending inventory that results from units produced but not sold during the period If production volume is less than sales volume, net income under absorption costing will be less than under variable costing by the amount of fixed manufacturing costs included in the units sold during the period that were not produced during the period a Discuss the merits of absorption versus variable costing for management decision making The use of variable costing is consistent with cost-volume-profit analysis Net income under variable costing is unaffected by changes in production levels Instead, it is closely tied to changes in sales The presentation of fixed costs in the variable costing approach makes it easier to identify fixed costs and to evaluate their impact on the company’s profitability 6-4 Test Bank for ISV Managerial Accounting, Fourth Edition TRUE-FALSE STATEMENTS The CVP income statement classifies costs as variable or fixed and computes a contribution margin In CVP analysis, cost includes manufacturing costs but not selling and administrative expenses When a company is in its early stages of operation, its primary goal is to generate a target net income The margin of safety tells a company how far sales can drop before it will be operating at a loss Sales mix is a measure of the percentage increase in sales from period to period Sales mix is not important to managers when different products have substantially different contribution margins The weighted-average contribution margin of all the products is computed when determining the break-even sales for a multi-product firm If Conan Corporation sells two products with a sales mix of 75% : 25%, and the respective contribution margins are $100 and $300, then weighted-average unit contribution margin is $150 If fixed costs are $100,000 and weighted-average unit contribution margin is $50, then the break-even point in units is 2,000 units 10 Net income can be increased or decreased by changing the sales mix 11 The break-even point in dollars is variable costs divided by the weighted-average contribution margin ratio 12 When a company has limited resources, management must decide which products to make and sell in order to maximize net income 13 When a company has limited resources to manufacture products, it should manufacture those products which have the highest contribution margin per unit 14 If a company has limited machine hours available for production, it is generally more profitable to produce and sell the product with the highest contribution margin per machine hour 15 According to the theory of constraints, a company must identify its constraints and find ways to reduce or eliminate them 16 Cost structure refers to the relative proportion of fixed versus variable costs that a company incurs 17 Operating leverage refers to the extent to which a company’s net income reacts to a given change in fixed costs Cost-Volume-Profit Analysis: Additional Issues a 6-5 18 The degree of operating leverage provides a measure of a company’s earnings volatility 19 If O’Brien Company has a margin of safety ratio of 60, it could sustain a 60 percent decline in sales before it would be operating at a loss 20 A company with low operating leverage will experience a sharp increase in net income with a given increase in sales 21 Variable costing is the approach used for external reporting under generally accepted accounting principles a 22 The difference between absorption costing and variable costing is the treatment of fixed manufacturing overhead a 23 Selling and administrative costs are period costs under both absorption and variable costing a 24 Manufacturing cost per unit will be higher under variable costing than under absorption costing a 25 Some fixed manufacturing costs of the current period are deferred to future periods through ending inventory under variable costing a 26 When units produced exceed units sold, income under absorption costing is higher than income under variable costing a 27 When units sold exceed units produced, income under absorption costing is higher than income under variable costing a 28 When absorption costing is used for external reporting, variable costing can still be used for internal reporting purposes a 29 When absorption costing is used, management may be tempted to overproduce in a given period in order to increase net income a 30 The use of absorption costing facilitates cost-volume-profit analysis Answers to True-False Statements

How does a company increase its operating leverage? Solution 162 Operating leverage refers to the change in net income that a company experiences when there is a change in net sales revenue Companies that have higher fixed costs relative to variable costs have higher operating leverage In that case, the company’s profits will increase rapidly when sales revenue increases, but decrease rapidly when sales revenue decreases A company can increase its operating leverage by increasing its reliance on fixed costs, with a corresponding decrease in variable costs a S-A E 163 Define variable costing and absorption costing What are some of the benefits to a manager from using variable costing instead of absorption costing for internal decision making? a Solution 163 Variable costing is a system for determining product costs that is used primarily for making managerial decisions This system determines product costs by considering only direct materials, direct labor, and variable manufacturing overhead In contrast, absorption costing is used by some managers and also for external reporting Under absorption costing, product costs include direct materials, direct labor, and both fixed and variable manufacturing overhead costs Some of the benefits to a manager from using variable costing instead of absorption costing for internal decision-making include: variable costing already has to be used when constructing a contribution margin income statement, variable costing puts greater focus on cost behaviors, fixed expenses not get tied up in inventory under variable costing, variable costing is better Cost-Volume-Profit Analysis: Additional Issues - 37 suited for cost-volume-profit analysis, variable costing produces income statements that are closer to net cash flows than absorption costing, and the method ties in with standard costing and flexible budgeting more effectively a S-A E 164 How differences in production and sales levels affect income under absorption and variable costing? a Solution 164 If production equals sales in any given period, the net incomes under both absorption and variable costing will be equal Under this scenario, fixed manufacturing overhead will not differ, because the direct cost expense under variable costing will be equal to the product cost component of fixed overhead under absorption costing If production exceeds sales, absorption costing net income will be greater than variable costing net income Absorption costing net income is higher because some fixed manufacturing overhead costs will be deferred in the inventory account until the products are sold, whereas under variable costing, all fixed manufacturing overhead costs will be expensed If sales exceed production, absorption costing net income will be less than variable costing net income Absorption costing net income is less because some fixed manufacturing overhead costs from the previous period will now be expensed when the older product is sold, whereas under variable costing, only fixed manufacturing overhead costs of the current period will be expensed ... fixed costs by 20%, while decreasing variable costs per unit by 20% What is Thornton’s break-even point in units for 2009? a 600 b 720 c 750 d 900 - 10 Test Bank for ISV Managerial Accounting, ...6-2 Test Bank for ISV Managerial Accounting, Fourth Edition SUMMARY OF STUDY OBJECTIVES BY QUESTION TYPE Item Type Item Type 31 TF TF MC 32 33... a 22 a 23 a 24 a 25 Ans F T T F F Item a 26 a 27 a 28 a 29 a 30 Ans T F T T F 6-6 Test Bank for ISV Managerial Accounting, Fourth Edition MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONS 31 Cost-volume-profit analysis
