managerial acctg provides info used primarily by
executives and employees (internal)
three costs recognized by GAAP
materials, labor, and overhead
characteristics of financial acctg
objectivity, consistency, reliability
cost per unit also means
average cost per unit
characteristics of managerial acctg info
relevance and timeliness
materials used to make products are usually called [] materials
raw
TF production workers salaries are NOT expensed bc the cash paid to the workers is used to produce inv not rev
true
direct raw materials are [] and [] traced to products
easily and conveniently
direct labor is
easily and conveniently traced to products
recognizing depreciation on manufacturing equip results in
increased inventory, no change to the income statement (cogs)
product costs are added to [] when incurred and expensed when []
inventory, the inv is sold
TF production wages are expensed as incurred and salaries to selling and admin employees are treated as product costs
false, switch
a company recorded a total depreciation, which will be recorded as an expense between manufacturing equip and office equip
office equip
manufacturing overhead includes
indirect labor, indirect materials, factory utilities, depreciation on manufacturing assets
nonproductive expenses are sometimes called [] costs
period
indirect costs cannot be
cost-effectively traces to products and services
cost allocation is the process of dividing
a total cost into parts and assigning the parts to relevant cost objects
as production occurs, materials used, labor and overhead are first accumulated in inv
work in process
to help managers analyze manufacturing costs schedule of [] is prepared
cogs manufactured and sold
which is not an inventory account for manufacturers
cogs
diminishes motivation, sloppy work and inattentive attitudes are all examples of hidden inventory [] costs
holding
goods are transferred to cogs from []
finished goods inventory
inventory holding costs include
obsolesce, financing, warehouse space, and increased production time
just in time inventory reduces inventory holding costs by
making products to order
as activity level decrease, fixed costs []
don’t change
to magnify small changes in rev into dramatic changes in profitability, managers apply [] leverages
operating

fixed

decrease
when a company uses a variable cost structure, a 15% change in sales will result in [] inc or dec in profitability
exactly 15%
yr1 gm = 50, yr2 gm = 80, what is percentage change in profitability
(80 - 50)/50 = 60%
sales rev - variable costs =
contribution margin
risk can be avoided by substituting [] in place of []
variable, fixed
magnitude of operating leverage = []/[]
contribution margin/net income
as activity level increases, variable costs per unit
don’t change
shifting the cost structure from fixed to variable cost, [] the level of risk and [] potential for profits
decreases, decreases
fixed costs - contribution margin =
net income
the levels of activity over which a cost is defined as either fixed or variable is called the [] range
relevant
the same cost can behave as either a fixed or a variable cost depending on the
activity base
point where profit = 0
break even
sales price is 20, variable cost is 7.5 per, T fixed costs is 10000, determine break even
10000/(20-7.5)
magnitude of operating leverage is 2, 10% rev inc leads to [] increase in profitability
10% x 2 = 20%
the amount at which actual sales can fall short of expectations before a company begins to incur losses is called the []
margin of safety
the larger the margin of safety, the
more likely the company will report a profit
relevant information must
differ among alternatives and be future oriented

sunk
relevant costs can include [] [] [] costs
opportunity, fixed, variable
most useful information is both [] and []
relevant and precise
the concept of relevant is [] from the concept of cost behavior
independent
relevant rev is sometimes called [] rev
differential
costs that can be eliminated by making specific choices are called [] costs
avoidable
costs incurred each time a company generates one individual item of product are called [] costs
unit-level
costs incurred each time a company generates a set quantity of goods produced at one time are called [] costs
batch-level
costs incurred to support specific services are called [] costs
product level
costs incurred to support an entire company are called [] costs
facility level
engineering design and the costs are obtaining and defending patents are examples of [] level costs
product
A customer has requested a special order of 2,000 Wilson tennis rackets for $40 per unit. The normal selling price is $50. Costs related to the special order are $30 per racket plus batch-level costs of $1,000. Wilson incurred $10,000 of product-level costs to design the racket and has $100,000 of facility-level costs per year. The differential revenue associated with the special order is Blank______.
40 x 2000 units = 80,000
A customer has requested a special order of 2,000 Wilson tennis rackets for $40 per unit. The normal selling price is $50. Costs related to the special order are $30 per racket plus batch-level costs of $1,000. Wilson incurred $10,000 of product-level costs to design the racket and has $100,000 of facility-level costs per year. The differential cost associated with the special order is Blank______.
$30 × 2,000 units + $1,000 batch level-cost = $61,000
in a special order decision, qualitative characteristics may be [] than quantitative ones
