COST ACCOUNTING
Meaning of Cost: The term cost means “the amount of
expenditure (actual or notional) incurred on,or attributable to, a given thing”.

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/unit3-costing 4/40
Objectives of Cost Accounting:
• Determining selling price of the products
• Determining and controlling the efficiency of the firm
• Facilitating preparation of financial andother Statements
• Providing basis for operating policy

Elements of Cost
There are three broad elements of costn Material
n Direct Material – Integral part of the productn
Indirect Material – Ancillary to the businessn Labour
n Direct labour n Indirect labour
n
Expensesn Direct Expensesn Indirect Expenses – Rent, Lighting, Insurance etc.
Overheads

Components of Total CostPrime Cost = Direct Material + Direct labour + Direct Expenses(Direct Cost)
Factory Cost = Prime Cost + Works or Factory O/H(Works cost)
Office Cost = Works cost + Office & Admn. O/H(Total cost of Production)
Cost of Sales = Office cost + Selling & Distribution O/H(Total Cost)

Classification of Cost
n Fixed Cost – The cost which does not vary butremains constant within a given period. (Ex.Rent, Insurance, Salary, etc.)
n Variable Cost – The cost which varies directly inproportion to every increase or decrease in thevolume of output or production. (Ex. Wages,Power, Cost of Direct Material, etc.)
n Semi-Variable Cost – Partly Fixed and PartlyVariable. (Ex. Depreciation, Repairs, etc.)

VARIANCES
Introduction:
The most significant contribution of stdcosting to the science and art of management is the presentation of ‘variances’.

VARIANCES
Meaning:
In cost accounting, variance meansdeviation of the actual cost from thestandard cost.
8/4/2019 Unit3 Costing
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/unit3-costing 13/40
VARIANCES
Variances may be Favourable
(positive or credit) or Unfavourable ( or
negative or adverse or debit) depending
upon whether the actual resulting cost is
less or more than the std cost.
8/4/2019 Unit3 Costing
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/unit3-costing 14/40
VARIANCESFavourable Variance: When the actual cost incurred is less
than the std cost, the deviation is known as
FV. It increase the profit.
Unfavourable Variance:
When the actual cost incurred is morethan the std cost, the deviation is known asUFV. It refers to the loss of the firm.

Uses of variances
n Comparison of actual with std cost which revealsthe efficiency or inefficiency of performance.
n It is a tool of cost control and cost reduction.
n It helps the management to apply the principle of mgt by exception.
n It help the mgt to maximize the profits
n
Future planning and programmes are based onthe variance analysis

1.Material Variances
The following are the variance in the case of materials:(a) Direct Material Cost Variance (or) MCV = (SQ x SP) – (AQ x AP)(b) Material Price Variance (MPV) = AQ - (SR x AR)
(c) Direct Material Usage (Quantity) Variance (or) MUV = SR – (SQ –AQ)

1.Material Variances
(d) Direct Material Mix Variance (DMMV) (i) When actual weight of mix and std weight of mix are the same DMMV = SR (SQ - AQ) or SR (RSQ - AQ)
Std is revised due to the shortage of a particular type of material. The formula is: MMV = SR (RSQ – AQ)
Total weight of actual mix RSQ = x Std
quantity Total weight of standard mix

2. Labour or wage Variances
n It arises because of (i) difference in actual rates and std
rates of labour and (ii) the variation in actual time taken by
workers and the std time allotted to them for performing a job.

BREAK EVEN ANALYSIS
8/4/2019 Unit3 Costing
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/unit3-costing 32/40
BREAK EVEN ANALYSIS
§ Cost – Volume – Profit Analysis is oftenreferred to as “ Break Even Analysis”.
§ BEP is known as “ no profit, no loss”.§ The technique of BEA can be made easy
with the help of graph or mathematicalformula.
§
Graphical representation of BEP is knownas break even chart.

BEA
n The term BEA is used in two senses –narrow sense and broad sense.
In its broad sense, BEA refers to thestudy of relationship between costs, volumeand profit at different levels of sales (or)production.
8/4/2019 Unit3 Costing
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/unit3-costing 34/40
BEA
In narrow sense, it refers to atechnique of determining that level of operations where total revenues equal totalexpenses, i.e., the point of no profit, noloss.
8/4/2019 Unit3 Costing
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/unit3-costing 35/40
Significance of Break Even Chart atvarious levels of activity:
1. It will show the VC,FC and Total Costs.
2. Sales Unit or Sales Value can be known.
3. Profit or Loss can be known.4. MOS can be known.
5. Angle of incidence or the intersection of sales line with costs line can also beknown.
Thus, it is very useful for managerialdecision.
8/4/2019 Unit3 Costing
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/unit3-costing 36/40
Assumptions of BEA
Ø All elements of cost can be segregated into fixed andvariable components.
Ø VC remains constant per unit and thus fluctuatesdirectly in proportion to change in the volume of output.
Ø FC remains constant at all volumes of output.Ø Selling price per unit remains constant at all levels of
output.
Ø Volume of production is only factor that influencescost.
Ø There will be no change in the general price-level.

Advantages of BEA and Chart
Ø TC,VC and FC can be determined.
Ø Break Even unit or sales value can bedetermined.
Ø CVP relationship can be studied.
Ø Inter-firm comparison is possible.
Ø It is useful for forecasting plans and profits.
ØTotal profits can be selected.
Ø It is helpful for cost control.

Limitations of BEA and Chart
BEC is constructed under some unrealisticassumptions:1.Exact and accurate classification of cost into fixed
and variable is not possible.2.Constant selling price is not true.3.Detailed information cannot be known from the
chart.
4.No importance is given to opening and closingstocks.
