B2- Strategic Planning Flashcards
Absorption Approach to Costing
(GAAP)
Revenue
- COGS (DM+DL+VOH+FOH)
= Gross Margin
- Op Exp (FSG&A+VSG&A)- period costs
= NI
Contribution Approach to Costing
(Not GAAP)
Revenue
- VC (DM + DL + VOH + VSG&A)
= CM
- FC (FOH + FSG&A)
= NI
Contribution Approach
vs.
Absorption Approach
* Difference = treatment of FOH
- Absorption= Product Cost, included in COGS
- Contribution= Period Cost, included in FC
Effect on Income
- FOH / # units produced
- Change Inv * Step 1
- Inv N/C: Absorption NI = Variable NI
- Inv Inc: Absorption NI > Variable NI
- Inv Dec: Absorption NI < Variable NI
Margin of Safety
Sales Dollars:
Total Sales - BE Sales = Margin of Safety ($)
Percent:
Margin of Safety ($) = Margin of Safety %
Total Sales
Relevant Costs
vs.
Irrelevant Costs
Relevant Rev & Costs- Change
- Incremental Costs
- Opportunity Costs
- Controllable Costs
Irrelevant Costs
- Sunk Costs
- Uncontrollable Costs
Special Order Decisions
Accept if Rev > Relevant Costs
- Excess Capacity: Accept if SP > VC
- Full Capacity: Accept if SP > VC + OC
- OC = CM in $ (forgo)
Regression Analysis
y = A + Bx
- y= dep variable/total costs
- x= indep variable/volume
- A= y-int/FC
- B= Slope/VC per unit
- Coefficiant of Correlation (r)
- Coefficient of Determination (R2)
High-Low Method
VC per unit = _change in y _
change in x
Ideal Standards
vs.
Currently Attainable Standards
IDEAL
- continuous quality improvement (CQI)
- demotivation
CURRENTLY AVAILABLE
- reasonable
- requires judgement
Authoritative Standards
vs.
Participative Standards
AUTHORITATIVE
- set by management
- quick
- not followed
PARTICIPATIVE
- set by both
- slow
- followed
Master Budget
vs.
Flexible Budget
MASTER
- annual business plan
- one level of output
- comprehensive plan
- assumption: supporting schedules
- limit- meaningless if volume variance
FLEXIBLE
- designed to change w/ activity level
- more meaningful
- adjust w/in relevant range
- but need accurate FC & VC
Budget Process
- Sales Budget
- Production Budget
- DM/DL/OH Budgets
- COGS
- Cash Budget
- Pro Forms FS
1-4 are Operating Budgets
5&6 are Financial Budgets
Operating Budget:
Production Budget
Budgeted Sales
+ End Inv
- Beg Inv
= Budgeted Production
Operating Budget:
Direct Materials
Purchase
- DM units needed
- End Inv
- - Beg Inv
- = # DM purchase
- * Price
- = Cost of DM Purchase
Usage
- Beg Inv
- Purchase
- - End Inv
- = DM Usage
Operating Budget:
Direct Labor
Budgeted Production (units)
* Hours per unit
= Hours needed
* wage rate
= Total wages
