Miscellaneous
Define the hurdle rate of return
The hurdle rate of return (or discount rate) is the desired (or “internal”) rate of return; that rate which the investment must return for the investor to “break even.” This rate must reward the investor for the risk that is being assumed in the investment—the higher the risk the higher the required rate of return.

•The present value of the payment in the second year is $3,000 ÷ (1.1 × 1.1), or $2,479.
•The present value of the payment in the third year is $3,000 ÷ (1.1 × 1.1 × 1.1), or $2,254.
•The present value of the payment in the fourth year is $3,000 ÷ (1.1 × 1.1 × 1.1 × 1.1), or $2,049.
•The present value of the payment in the fifth year is $3,000 ÷ (1.1 × 1.1 × 1.1 × 1.1 × 1.1), or $1,863.

•(Portfolio return - Risk-free rate) ÷ Beta
Miscellaneous
What are the inherent simplifying assumptions used in CVP analysis?
- Costs and revenues are predictable and are linear over the relevant range.

- Changes in inventory are insignificant.
- Total fixed costs are constant over the relevant range of volume.
- Production equals sales or units produced equals units sold.
- The product mix is constant, or the firm has only one product.
- A relevant range exists in which the various relationships are true.
- All costs are either fixed or variable; i.e., costs can be separated into fixed and variable elements.
- Productivity and efficiency are constant.
- The sales mix remains constant.
- Selling prices and unit variable costs are constant. Selling price does not change with the activity level.

Miscellaneous
Define Job order costing
Job order costing assigns costs to specific production batches or jobs and is used when a product or service consists of discreetly identifiable items. Job costing, not process costing, would be concerned with determining the cost for a partial shipment (before the job is complete) and charging material and labor costs to each job.
Miscellaneous
Define Process costing
Process costing assigns costs to processes and calculates the average cost for all units produced. This calculation of equivalent units of production is a unique disadvantage to the process costing system. Process costing is used when similar goods or services are produced in mass quantities and discrete units are not readily identified.

Miscellaneous
What are the four basic categories of normalization adjustments?
- Nonoperating adjustments: the removal of nonoperating items included in the historical financial statements that are not part of normal operations. The performance of “odd jobs” around a business facility would be normal operating items.
- Nonrecurring adjustments: the removal of unusual, unexpected, or items not likely to occur again from the financial statements. Although the son is not likely to perform these duties in the future, someone would need to do general maintenance on an ongoing basis.
- Comparability adjustments: adjustments of the historical financial statements to match GAAP choices of potential guideline companies. The payment of wages is not a “GAAP” question, even though they may be excessive.
- Discretionary adjustments: adjustments to the historical financial statement to include or to remove items not considered part of normal operations. Excessive wages paid to family members are considered to be discretionary items. The normalization adjustment would need to be made to bring the amount paid within going market rates.

Miscellaneous
Define Period Costs
Period costs are costs charged to the income statement of a particular period. Under direct costing, all fixed costs are treated as period costs, so the fixed manufacturing overhead is a period cost.
Selling costs (fixed or variable) are expensed in the period incurred, so the variable selling costs are treated as a period cost of $80,000 like any other selling cost.
Miscellaneous

Read
A three-way analysis separates over- or underapplied overhead into three variances: (1) spending, (2) efficiency, and (3) volume. The volume variance is the same as computed in the two-way analysis. However, what was a controllable variance in a two-way analysis is split into two parts. The difference between the actual costs and the overhead costs that should have been incurred at the actual volume of production is a spending variance. This results from prices that are different from those expected at the time the flexible budget formula was developed. The difference between the overhead costs that should have been incurred at the actual volume and the costs that should have been incurred at the earned volume is an efficiency variance.
