3、ich are essential for cost and management accounting,before proceeding with the remainder of the course.1.Cost terms Cost is the sacrifice made,usually measured by the price paid or to be paid,to achieve a specific objective(e.g.to acquire goods or services).Costing means assigning a dollar value,re

4、presenting what it costs the firm to produce something.Actual cost is the cost incurred(a historical or past cost)as distinguished from a budgeted cost(future cost).Opportunity cost is the value of what is given up when one alternative is chosen instead of another.5Cost termsCost object(or cost obje

5、ctive)is the item that the firm is costing.It may be a whole process,a department,a product/service or a job.For most of ACCT2102,the cost object considered will be a product(or a job).Product cost is the sum of the costs assigned to a product for a specific purpose.There are 3 elements of product c

7、g and cost allocation.Cost tracing is the assignment of accumulated costs that have a direct relationship to a particular cost object(direct cost).Cost allocation is the assignment of accumulated costs that have an indirect relationship to a cost object(indirect cost).The process of“cost accumulatio

8、n”and“cost assignment”requires a distinction be made between Direct Costs and Indirect Costs.Cost Driver is the factor or variable(such as the level of activity or volume)that causes a change of total cost over a range of activity/volume and time period(Cost BehaviorTopic 3)72.Cost classificationMan

9、ufacturing versus non-manufacturing costsManufacturing versus non-manufacturing costsManufacturing costs are the costs of obtaining and transforming raw materials into a finished product.Only manufacturing costs are considered as“product”costs(inventory)under AASB 102.Non-manufacturing costs include

10、 all other costs of the firm.Traditionally,non-manufacturing costs are considered“period”costs.These include:Distribution costsSelling costsMarketing costsResearch and development costsGeneral and Administrative costs89Total CostManufacturingProduct Costs/Inventory CostsNon-ManufacturingPeriod Costs

13、direct costsA manufacturing cost is a cost which is directly or indirectly related to the production(manufacture)of a product or a job.Manufacturing costs do not include costs such as design,research and development,selling,distribution,administration,financing.Direct costs are costs directly relate

15、feasible way).11 Quick check 2Given the respective cost objects classify the following costs as Direct(D)or Indirect(O/H):Cost(Manufacturing)When the cost object considered is:Each individual repair jobThe entire repair workshopParts used in the jobService LabourSupervisors salaryIncidental material

25、urance of Pottery Shed(F)$2$1unit cost of Clay(V)$5$5Total cost of Clay(V)$500$1,000Note that the definition describes how the cost behaves in total,not how it behaves per unit.In the above example,Insurance cost is fixed-as the level of activity increases from 100 to 200,the total Insurance cost do

26、es not increase proportionately.Note that the cost per unit of a fixed cost decreases as activity level increases.Clay cost is variable-as the level of activity increases,the total cost of clay increases in proportion to the activity level.Note that for a variable cost,the cost per unit($5)remains c

27、onstant.21But there are some exceptionsBut there are some exceptionsFor the variable materials cost,it is likely that as volume increases the firm may buy in bulk,and possibly the$5 per unit reduces marginally.In reality the cost graph is a curve,not a straight line,but this refinement is assumed aw

28、ay for our purposes.Fixed costs in practice tend to remain fixed for a range of activity/volume,and then jump up to a higher amount for the next range,and so on.For example,if production is 100 units the firm may lease one machine.If production doubles,it may need to lease a second machine.In all ou

29、r work we will choose the expected range of activity,called the relevant range.22Another category a Another category a mixed costmixed costWhile most costs are either fixed or variable,some may have both a fixed and a variable component.For example,a supervisor may be paid a salary of$400 per week,r

30、egardless of output(Fixed),plus 20c per unit produced(Variable).This type of cost is called a mixed cost,and for decision-making purposes must be split into its fixed and variable components.How that is done is covered in lecture 3.23Consider now the three categories of manufacturing Consider now th

31、e three categories of manufacturing cost.Are they fixed,variable or mixed?cost.Are they fixed,variable or mixed?DM is always variable.If one mug takes$5 worth of clay,two mugs will use$10 worth,3 mugs$15 worth,and so on.DL is always variable.This particular item frequently causes students difficulty

32、 because in todays business environment the larger proportion of the workforce is paid a fixed salary,rather than hourly wage rates.However,if you think of direct labour in terms of the cost of labour hours that were spent on a particular product(or job)”?If so,it is likely to be direct and variable

33、.For example,is it possible to know how long the potter spent working on one coffee mug or a batch of coffee mugs?If yes,therefore this would be direct labour and variable cost.24What about OH?Some factory overhead costs will be fixed,some are variable,and others could be mixed.The Insurance on Pott

34、ery Shed cost above is fixed.An example of variable overhead is overtime premium and idle time.They are indirect labour costs and not direct costs because they cannot be traced to one unit or job(the cost of one job cannot be“penalised”because it was worked on during overtime hours).Supervisors sala

35、ry(as described before)is often a mixed cost.25Note:Lecture 3 next week will cover more on variable,fixed and mixed,etciii.Product versus period costsFrom previous courses you should be familiar with determining whether costs should be immediately expensed,or capitalised and expensed at a later date

36、.The distinction between product and period costs similarly relates to when a cost is expensed.The definition is important because as an accountant you could be asked to treat an item as a product cost or a period cost.Consequently,you need to know the appropriate treatment.26What are What are perio

37、dperiod and and productproduct costs?costs?A PERIOD cost(also called non-inventoriable cost)is one which is expensed in the period in which it is incurred.A PRODUCT cost(also called inventoriable cost)is one which is only expensed when the product,to which it is attached/related,is sold.Product cost

38、s are recorded in inventory accounts(WIP and FG).They are expensed(transferred to COGS)when the goods are sold.27Treatment of product versus period costs28 Product costs Product costs include direct materials,direct labour,and manufacturing overhead.Period costs Period costs are not included in prod

43、 concepts in a financial accounting framework developed in ACCT1101developed in ACCT1101In ACCT1101 you developed the Financial Statements for merchandisers and some service firms.Let us look at the financial statements of a manufacturer.Let us see how they might differ from Statements prepared for

44、a merchandiser.31Recall the difference in the Balance Sheets between Recall the difference in the Balance Sheets between Merchandising firms and Manufacturing firms as covered in Merchandising firms and Manufacturing firms as covered in ACCT1101.ACCT1101.Examine the two extracts from the current ass
