McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education. Chapter theme Making decisions is one of the basic functions of a manager. To be successful in decision making, managers must be able to perform differential analysis, which focuses on identifying the costs and benefits that differ between alternatives. -> illustrating the use of these skills in a wide range of decision- making situations.

McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education. Key Concept #1 Every decision involves choosing from among at least two alternatives. Therefore, the first step in decision making is to define the alternatives being considered. Key Concept #2 Once you have defined the alternatives, you need to identify the criteria for choosing among them. Relevant costs and relevant benefits should be considered when making decisions. Irrelevant costs and irrelevant benefits should be ignored when making decisions. Decision Making – Six Key Concepts – Concepts 1 and 2

McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education. Key Concept #3 The key to effective decision making is differential analysis— focusing on the future costs and benefits that differ between the alternatives. Everything else is irrelevant and should be ignored. A future cost that differs between any two alternatives is known as a differential cost. Future revenue that differs between any two alternatives is known as differential revenue. An incremental cost is an increase in cost between two alternatives. An avoidable cost is a cost that can be eliminated by choosing one alternative over another. Decision Making – Six Key Concepts – Concept 3

McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education. Key Concept #4 Sunk costs are always irrelevant when choosing among alternatives. A sunk cost is a cost that has already been incurred and cannot be changed regardless of what a manager decides to do. Key Concept #5 Future costs and benefits that do not differ between alternatives are irrelevant to the decision-making process. Decision Making – Six Key Concepts – Concepts 4 and 5

Automobile Costs (based on 10,000 miles driven per year). Annual Cost of Fixed Items Cost per Mile 1 Annual straight-line depreciation on car $ 2,800 $ 0.280 2 Cost of gasoline 0.100 3 Annual cost of auto insurance and license 1,380 0.138 4 Maintenance and repairs 0.065 5 Parking fees at school 360 0.036 6 Total average cost $ 0.619

The monthly school parking fee? The decline in resale value due to additional miles? The round-trip train fare? Relaxing on the train? The kennel cost? The cost of parking in New York? The benefits of having a car in New York and the problems of finding a parking?

McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education. Which costs and benefits are relevant in Cynthia’s decision? The cost of the car is a sunk cost and is not relevant to the current decision. The annual cost of insurance is not relevant. It will remain the same if she drives or takes the train. However, the cost of gasoline is clearly relevant if she decides to drive. If she takes the train, she would avoid the cost of the gasoline, so the cost differs between the alternatives. Identifying Relevant Costs – Part 1
14.
11-14 Copyright © 2019
McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education. The cost of maintenance and repairs is relevant. In the long-run, these costs depend upon miles driven. The monthly school parking fee is not relevant because it must be paid if Cynthia drives or takes the train. At this point, we can see that some of the total average cost of $0.619 per mile are relevant and others are not. Identifying Relevant Costs – Part 2
15.
11-15 Copyright © 2019
McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education. The decline in resale value due to additional miles is a relevant cost. The round-trip train fare is clearly relevant. If she drives the cost can be avoided. Relaxing on the train is relevant even though it is difficult to assign a dollar value to the benefit. The kennel cost is not relevant because Cynthia will incur the cost if she drives or takes the train. Identifying Relevant Costs – Part 3

McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education. The cost of parking in New York is relevant because it can be avoided if she takes the train.

McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education. Total and Differential Cost Approaches The example above focused on identifying the relevant cost and benefits of taking a train vs driving, everything else was ignored! This method of decision analysis is called differential approach, as it focuses solely on the relevant costs and benefits. Another method of decision analysis, called the total cost approach, includes all the costs and benefits – relevant or not. When done correctly, the two methods always provide the same answer!

McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education. Total and Differential Cost Approaches – Total Cost Approach The management of a company is considering a new labor saving machine that rents for $3,000 per year. Data about the company’s annual sales and costs with and without the new machine are: Current Situation Situation With New Machine Differential Costs and Benefits Sales (5,000 units @ $40 per unit) $ 200,000 $ 200,000 - Less variable expenses: Direct materials (5,000 units @ $14 per unit) 70,000 70,000 - Direct labor (5,000 units @ $8 and $5 per unit) 40,000 25,000 15,000 Variable overhead (5,000 units @ $2 per unit) 10,000 10,000 - Total variable expenses 120,000 105,000 - Contribution margin 80,000 95,000 15,000 Less fixed expenses: Other 62,000 62,000 - Rent on new machine - 3,000 (3,000) Total fixed expense: 62,000 65,000 (3,000) Net operating income $ 18,000 $ 30,000 12,000

As you can see, the only costs that differ between the alternatives are the direct labor costs savings and the increase in fixed rental costs. We can efficiently analyze the decision by looking at the different costs and revenues and arrive at the same solution. Financial Advantage of Renting the New Machine Total and Differential Cost Approaches – Differential Cost Approach Decrease in direct labor costs (5,000 units @ $3 per unit) $ 15,000 Increase in fixed rental expenses (3,000) Financial advantage of renting the new machine $ 12,000

McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education. Using the differential approach is desirable for two reasons: 1. Only rarely will enough information be available to prepare detailed income statements for both alternatives. 2. Mingling irrelevant costs with relevant costs may cause confusion and distract attention away from the information that is really critical. Total and Differential Cost Approaches

McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education. One of the most important decisions managers make is whether to add or drop a business segment. Ultimately, a decision to drop an old segment or add a new one is going to hinge primarily on its financial impact. To assess this impact, it is necessary to carefully analyze the costs. Adding/Dropping Segments

McGraw-Hill Education. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw-Hill Education. DECISION RULE Lovell should drop the digital watch segment only if its profit would increase. Lovell will compare the contribution margin that would be lost if the digital watch line was discontinued to the fixed expenses that would be avoided if the line was discontinued.
