    COSTING

    Cost accounting system provides releventinformation about cost

    Aim : best use of resources and maximization

    of returns cost = amount of expenditure incurred(

    Marginal costing

    Marginal costing distinguishes betweenfixed cost and variable cost

    Marginal cost is nothing but variable costof additional unit

    Marginal cost= variable cost

    Marginal costing

    cost-volume-profit analysis is reliant upon aclassification of costs in which fixed and variablecosts are separated from one another. Fixed

    costs are those which are generally time relatedand are not influenced by the level of activity.

    Variable costs , on the other hand, are directlyrelated to the level of activity; if activity

    increases, variable costs will increase andvice-versa .

    USES OF COST-VOLUME-PROFIT ANALYSIS

    The ability to analyse and use cost-volume-profitrelationship is an important management tool. Theknowledge of patterns of cost behaviour offers insights

    valuable in planning and controlling short and long-runoperations. The example of increasing capacity is a goodillustrations of the power of the technique in planning.

    The implications of changes in the level of activity can bemeasured by flexing a budget using knowledge of cost

    behaviour, thereby permitting comparison to be made ofactual and budgeted performance for any level ofactivity.

    Marginal costing

    LIMITATIONS OF COST-VOLUME-PROFITANALYSIS

    A major limitation of conventional CVP analysis that wehave already identified is the assumption and use of

    linear relationships. Yet another limitation relates to thedifficulty of dividing fixed costs among many productsand/or services. Whilst variable costs can usually beidentified with production services, most fixed costusually can only be divided by allocation and

    apportionment methods reliant upon a good deal ofjudgement. However, perhaps the major limitation of thetechnique relates to the initial separation of fixed andvariable costs.

    ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OFMARGINAL COSTING

    ADVANTAGES 1. More efficient pricing decisions can be made, since

    their impact on the contribution margin can bemeasured. 2. Marginal costing can be adapted to all costing

    system. 3. Profit varies in accordance with sales, and is not

    distorted by changes in stock level. 4. It eliminates the confusion and misunderstanding

    that may occur by the presence ofover-or-under-absorbed overhead costs in the profit andloss account.

    Marginal costing

    5. The reports based on direct costing are far moreeffective for management control than those based onabsorption costing. First of all, the reports are moredirectly related to the profit objective or budget for theperiod. Deviations from standards are more readily

    apparent and can be corrected more quickly. Thevariable cost of sales changes in direct proportion withvolume. The distorting effect of production on profit isavoided, especially in month following high productionwhen substantial amount of fixed costs are carried in

    inventory over to next month. A substantial increase insales in the month after high production underabsorption costing will have a significant negative impacton the net operating profit as inventories are liquidated.

    Marginal costing

    6. Marginal costing can help to pinpointresponsibility according to organisational lines:individual performance can be evaluated onreliable and appropriate data based on current

    period activity. Operating reports can beprepared for all segments of the company, withcosts separated into fixed and variable and thenature of any variance clearly shown. Theresponsibility for costs and variances can then

    be more readily attributed to specific individualsand functions, from top management to downmanagement

    Marginal costing

    DISADVANTAGES OF MARGINAL COSTING 1. Difficulty may be experienced in trying to segregate

    the fixed and variable elements of overhead costs for thepurpose of marginal costing.

    2. The misuse of marginal costing approaches topricing decisions may result in setting selling prices thatdo not allow the full recovery of overhead costs.

    3. Since production cannot be achieved withoutincurring fixed costs, such costs are related toproduction, and total absorprtion costing attempts tomake an allowance for this relationship. This avoids thedanger inherent in marginal costing of creating theillusion that fixed costs have nothing to do withproduction.

    CAPITAL BUDGETING

    A capital budgeting decision is one that involves theallocation of funds to projects that will have a life ofatleast one year and usually much longer.

    Examples would include the development of a major

    new product, a plant site location, or an equipmentreplacement decision.

    Capital budgeting decision must be approached withgreat care because of the following reasons:

    1. Long time period: consequences of capital expenditureextends into the future and will have to be endured for alonger period whether the decision is good or bad.

  • 8/12/2019 Finance management lecture presentations

    CAPITAL BUDGETING

    2. . Substantial expenditure: it involves largesums of money and necessitates a carefulplanning and evaluation.

    3. Irreversibility: the decisions are quite often

    irreversible, because there is little or no secondhand market for may types of capital goods.

    4. Over and under capacity: an erroneousforecast of asset requirements can result in

    serious consequences. First the equipmentmust be modern and secondly it has to be ofadequate capacity

    CAPITAL BUDGETING

    Difficulties

    There are three basic reasons why capital expendituredecisions pose difficulties for the decision maker. Theseare:

    1. Uncertainty: the future business success is todaysinvestment decision. The future in the real world is neverknown with certainty.

    2. Difficult to measure in quantitative terms: Even ifbenefits are certain, some might be difficult to measurein quantitative terms.

    3. Time Element: the problem of phasing properly theavailability of capital assets in order to have them comeonstreamat the correct time.

    Methods of classifying investments

    Independent Dependent Mutually exclusive Economically independent and statistically

    dependent Investment may fall into two basic categories,

    profit-maintaining and profit-adding when

    viewed from the perspective of a business, orservice maintaining and service-adding whenviewed from the perspective of a government oragency.

    Expansion and new product investment

    1. Expansion of current production to meetincreased demand

    2. Expansion of production into fields closelyrelated to current operation horizontalintegration and vertical integration.

    3. Expansion of production into new fields not

    associated with the current operations.4. Research and development of new products.

    CAPITAL BUDGETING

    Reasons for using cash flows

    Economic value of a proposed investment can beascertained by use of cash flows.

    Use of cash flows avoids accounting ambiguities

    Cash flows approach takes into account the time valueof money

    For any investment project generating either expandedrevenues or cost savings for the firm, the appropriate

    cash flows used in evaluating the project must beincremental cash flow.

    The computation of incremental cash flow should followthewithand withoutprinciple rather than the beforeand afterprinciple

    Solution IRR NPV

    Project A 20% 309

    Project B 15% 1441

    These project are mutually exclusive

    The IRR ranks project A higher, whereas the NPV ranksproject B first.

    The conflict arises because B is ten times the size of A.This gives a higher NPV but in relative terms it is less

    profitable with a lower percentage return. Naturally, B ispreferable because it gives the greatest increase inshareholders wealth.

    Methods of capital investmentappraisal

    The advantages of IRR over NPV are: 1. It gives a percentage return which is easy to

    understanding at all levels of management. 2. The discount rate/required rate of return

    does not have to be known to calculate IRR. Itdoes have to be decided upon at sometimebecause IRR must be compared with something.The discussion as to what is an acceptable rate

    of return can however be left until much laterstage. In a NPV calculation the discount ratemust be specified prior to any calculation beingperformed.

    35/103

    Methods of capital investmentappraisal

    The advantages of NPV over IRR are: 1. NPV gives an absolute measure of profitability and hence

    immediately shows the increase in shareholders wealth due to aninvestment decision.

    2. NPV gives a clear answer in an accept/reject decision. IRRgives multiple answers.

    3. NPV always gives the correct ranking for mutually exclusiveproject while IRR may not.

    4. NPVs of projects are additive while IRRs are not. 5. Any changes in discount rates over the life of a project can

    more easily be incorporated into the NPV calculation.

    The NPV approach provides as absolute measure that fullyrepresents in value of the company if a particular project isundertaken. The IRR by contrast, provides a percentage figure fromwhich the size of the benefits in terms of wealth creation cannotalways be grasped.

    The evaluation of any projectdepends on the magnitude of thecash flows, the timing and thediscount rate.

    The discount rate is highlysubjective. The higher the rate , theless a rupee in the future would beworth today.

    The risk of the project shoulddetermine the discount rate.

    PRICING DECISIONS

    PRICING AND ITS OBJECTIVES The objective of pricing in practice will probably

    be one of the following: (a) To skim the market (in the case of new

    products) by the use of high prices; (b) To penetrate deeply into the market (again

    with new products) at an early stage, beforecompetition produces similar goods;

    (c) To earn a particular rate of return on thefunds invested via the generating of revenue; and

    (d) To make a profit on the product range as awhole, which may involve using certain items inthe range as loss leaders, and so forth.

  • 8/12/2019 Finance management lecture presentations

    45/103

    PRICING DECISIONS

    Full cost pricing The object is to recover all costs incurred

    plus a percentage of profit. It is a method

    best used where the product is clearlydifferentiated and not in immediate, directcompetition. It would not lend itself tosituation where price tended to bedetermined by the market,

    PRICING DECISIONS

    Conversion cost pricing

    Conversion cost consists of direct labourcost and factory overhead, ignoring thecost of the raw material on the groundsthat profit should be made within thefactory and not upon materials bought

    from suppliers.

  • 8/12/2019 Finance management lecture presentations

    47/103

    PRICING DECISIONS

    Marginal cost pricing Briefly it is that cost which would not be incurred if the

    production of the product were discontinued. Animportant advantage of differential cost of pricing is the

    flexibility it gives to meet special short-termcircumstances, while accepting that full costs must berecovered in the long term. This is by no means alwaysdesirable in the short term. For example, there may besurplus productive capacity in a factory, in which case

    any opportunity to accept an order which coversdifferential cost and makes a contribution to fixed costand profit should be accepted. Any contribution is betterthan none.

    PRICING DECISIONS

    Market based pricing

    This can be based on the value to a customer ofgoods or services and involves variable pricing.It also takes account of the price he is able andwilling to pay for the goods or services.Businesses using this approach develop specialproducts or services which command premium

    prices. The other market-based approach is to price on

    the basis of what competitors are charging.

    Operating cycle concept

    A companys operating cycle typically consists ofthree primary activities: Purchasing resources,

    Producing the product and

    Distributing (selling) the product.

    These activities create funds flows that are bothunsynchronizedand uncertain.

    Unsynchronized because cash disbursements (forexample, payments for resource purchases) usually takeplace before cash receipts (for example collection of

    receivables).They are uncertain because future sales and costs, which

    generate the respective receipts and disbursements,cannot be forecasted with complete accuracy.

    Working Capital Levels in Different Industries A retailing company usually has high levels of

    finished goods stock and very low levels ofdebtors. Most of the retailers sales will be for

    cash, and an independent credit card company ora financial subsidiary of the retail business (whichon occasions is not consolidated in the groupaccounts). The retailing company, however,usually has high levels of creditors. It pays its

    suppliers after an agreed period of credit. Thelevels of working capital required are thereforelow:

    Working capital

    Excess of current assets over current liabilities are calledthe net working capital or net current assets.

    Working capital is really what a part of long term financeis locked in and used for supporting current activities.

    The balance sheet definition of working capital ismeaningful only as an indication of the firms currentsolvency in repaying its creditors.

    When firms speak of shortage of working capital they infact possibly imply scarcity of cash resources.

    In fund flow analysis an increase in working capital, asconventionally defined, represents employment orapplication of funds.

    In contrast, a manufacturing company willrequire relatively high levels of workingcapital with investments in raw materials,

    Cash Levels it is necessary to prepare a cash budget where

    the minimum balances needed from month tomonth will be defined.

    business is seasonal, cash shortages may arise in certainperiods. Generally it is thought better to keep onlysufficient cash to satisfy short-term needs, and toborrow if longer-term requirements occur
