13. 1.4 Bases of Accounting & Recording Systems
1. Cash-Basis Accounting
• Revenues and expenses are recognized only
when cash is received or payments are
made.
• Mainly used by small business
organizations.
• Do not show accurate picture of true
profitability.

14. 2. Accrual Bases of Accounting
• A system of accounting in which revenues
and expenses are recorded as they are
earned and incurred, not necessarily when
cash is received or paid.
• Provide a more accurate picture of a
company’s profitability.
• Statement users can make more informed
judgment concerning the company’s earning
potential.
• It is an acceptable method under GAAP

15. Illustration: During 2014, Crown Consulting billed its client for
$48,000. On December 31, 2010, it had received $41,000, with the
remaining $7,000 to be received in 2015. Total expenses during
2014 were $31,000 with $3,000 of these costs not yet paid at
December 31. Determine net income under both methods for the
year 2014.
Cash-Basis Accounting
Cash receipts $41,000
Cash disbursement 28,000
Income $13,000
Accrual-Basis Accounting
Revenues earned $48,000
Expenses incurred $31,000
Income $17,000

LO 1 Discuss the need for comparative analysis.
LO 2 Identify the tools of financial statement analysis.
Chapter 4: Financial Statement Analysis and
Interpretation

84. LO 3 Explain and apply horizontal analysis.
4.1 Horizontal Analysis
Horizontal analysis, also called trend analysis, is a
technique for evaluating a series of financial statement data
over a period of time.
 Purpose is to determine the increase or decrease that
has taken place.
 Commonly applied to the balance sheet, income
statement, and statement of retained earnings.

85. Changes suggest
that the company
expanded its asset
base during 2009
and financed this
expansion primarily
by retaining income
rather than assuming
additional long-term
debt.
Horizontal Analysis

86. Overall, gross profit
and net income were
up substantially.
Gross profit
increased by
17.1%, and net
income,26.5%.
Quality’s profit trend
appears favorable.
Horizontal Analysis

87. In the horizontal analysis of the balance sheet the ending
retained earnings increased 38.6%. As indicated earlier, the
company retained a significant portion of net income to
finance additional plant facilities.
Horizontal Analysis

88. Vertical analysis, also called common-size analysis, is a
technique that expresses each financial statement item as a
percent of a base amount.
 On an income statement, we might say that selling
expenses are 16% of net sales.
 Vertical analysis is commonly applied to the balance
sheet and the income statement.
4.2 Vertical Analysis

89. These results
reinforce the earlier
observations that
Quality is
choosing to
finance its growth
through retention
of earnings rather
than through
issuing additional
debt.
Vertical Analysis

90. Quality appears
to be a profitable
enterprise that is
becoming even
more successful.
Vertical Analysis

91. Enables a comparison of companies of different sizes.
Vertical Analysis

92. 4.3 Ratio Analysis
Ratio analysis expresses the
relationship among selected items of
financial statement data. There are five
types of ratios
• Liquidity Ratio
• Asset management Ratio
• Debt management Ratio
• Profitability Ratio
• Market value Ratio

93. The discussion of ratios will include the
following types of comparisons.
A single ratio by itself is not very meaningful.
Ratio Analysis

94. Liquidity Ratios
Measure the short-term ability of the company to pay its
maturing obligations and to meet unexpected needs for cash.
 Short-term creditors such as bankers and suppliers are
particularly interested in assessing liquidity.
 Ratios include the current ratio, the acid-test ratio
Ratio Analysis

95. Ratio of 2.96:1 means that for every dollar of current liabilities, Quality has
$2.96 of current assets.

114. Advantages of Ratio Analysis
• They facilitate inter-company comparison
• They downplay the impact of size and allow
evaluation over time or across entities
without undue concern for the effects of size
difference
• They serve as benchmarks for targets such as
financing ratios and debt burden
• They help provide an informed basis for
making investment-related decisions by
comparing an entity’s financial performance
to another

115. Limitations of Ratio Analysis
 It is restricted to information reported in the
financial statements
 It is based on past performance
 Comparability is hampered when accounting policies
are not uniform across an industry
 The past may not predict the future
 “Window dressing” techniques can make statements
and ratios look better
 Comparison with industry averages is difficult for a
conglomerate firm that operates in many different
divisions

Accounting
5.1 What is Management Accounting?
The followings are important characteristics of management
accounting
•It is a separate branch of accounting which provides
information for management decision
•It is futuristic in its approach
•Collection of accounting data for analysis and interpretation
is made according to the need of the management.
•It only gives useful information for decision making, it does
not take part in execution of decision.

118. 5.2 Cost Concepts & Classifications
What is the difference between Price, Cost,
Expense and Loss?
– Price is the amount at which goods or services are sold
–Cost refers to an outlay or expenditure of money to acquire Fixed
assets, goods and services. All costs initially represent an
asset
– Expense is an expired cost or amount incurred in generating
revenue
– Loss is cost incurred because of catastrophe or
unfavorable business condition

119. What is Cost Accounting?
• Cost accounting is an accounting
information system that records, measures
and reports information about cost.
• Cost accounting deals with accumulating
cost of manufacturing a product and other
functional processes and identifying these
costs with units produced or some other
cost object to enable the determination of
profit.
• Cost accounting can be applied in any
organization but the detail concept will be
applied in manufacturing organizations.

120. Cost can be classified in different ways from
different points of view
1. Time period points of view
• Budgeted cost/future cost
• Historical/sunk cost
2. Management function points of view
• Manufacturing cost
• Marketing cost
• Administrative cost
Classifications of Cost

121. 3. From Cost Assignment points of view
• Direct cost
• Indirect cost
4.From GAAP Points of view
• Product cost/capitalized cost
• Periodic cost/non capitalized cost
5. Cost behavior point of view
• Fixed cost
• Mixed cost
• Variable cost

122. 122
6. From decision making points of view
• Relevant cost
• Irrelevant cost
7. From controllability of cost points of view
• Controllable cost
• Uncontrollable cost
8. From commitment to expenditure point of
view
• Committed cost
• Programmable cost
9. Other cost classifications
• Opportunity cost
• Incremental cost
• Out of pocket cost
• Joint cost

123. Manufacturing cost
Types of inventories in manufacturing Companies
– Raw materail inventory
– Work in process inventory
– Finished goods inventory
The three main manufacturing cost are
1.Direct material cost
2.Direct labor cost
3.Manufacturing overhead cost

124. 124
What is Manufacturing Overhead cost(MOH cost)?
MOH Cost Includes:
– Indirect materials, such as glue, nails, screws
– Indirect labor, such as supervisor’s salary and
Janitorial services.
– Tax on manufacturing facilities.
– Utilities for the manufacturing process.
– Depreciation on manufacturing facilities
– Repair and maintenance cost
– Plant Insurance
– Plant Rent

136. Job Order Cost System
 Costs are assigned to each job or batch.
 Key feature: Each job or batch has its own
distinguishing characteristics.
 Objective: Compute the cost per job.
 Measures costs for each job completed – not for set
time periods.
 Furniture companies, service firms and repair shops
are some examples that use job order costing
5.5 Job order Vs. Process Costing

137.  Used when a large volume of similar products are
manufactured – cement production, refining of
petroleum, production of ice cream.
 Costs are accumulated for a time period – (week or
month).
 Costs are assigned to departments or processes for a
specified period of time.
Process Costing System

138. Illustration 17-3
Nature of job order & Process Cost Systems

139. Job order Vs. Process Costing Systems

140.  Allocates overhead using a single predetermined rate.
► Job order costing: direct labor cost may be the relevant
activity base.
► Process costing: machine hours may be the relevant
activity base.
 Assumption was satisfactory when direct labor was a major
portion of total manufacturing costs.
► Wide acceptance of a high correlation between direct labor
and overhead costs.
Traditional Costing Systems
5.6 Traditional Costing vs Activity-Based Costing

141. Activity-Based Costing
 ABC allocates overhead costs in two stages:
Stage 1: Overhead costs are allocated to activity cost pools.
Stage 2: Assigns overhead allocated to the activity cost
pools to products, using cost drivers.
 The more complex a product’s manufacturing operation, the
more activities and cost drivers are likely to be present.
Traditional Costing and Activity-Based Costing

142. Over Head cost Allocation in Activity-Based Costing

143. Exercise 5
Sino-Afro Optics produces two types of eyeglasses – standard
and deluxe. Operational data for 2013 is provided below
The company has a traditional costing system in which
manufacturing overhead is applied to units based on direct
labor-hours. Data concerning manufacturing overhead and
direct labor-hours for 2013 appear below:
143
Items Standard Deluxe
Unit direct material cost 900.00 1,200.00
Unit direct labor cost 144.00 192.00

145. Unit 6: Cost – Volume – Profit (CVP)
Analysis
6.1 What is CVP analysis?
Cost-Volume-Profit is the manner of evaluating the
total revenues, the total costs and operating profit,
as changes occur in volume of production, sales
price, unit variable cost and fixed costs of a product.
CVP Assumptions:
1. All costs can be analysed into their fixed and variable elements.
2 . Fixed costs remain fixed even over a wide range of activity.
3. Variable costs always vary directly with activity.
4. Selling prices & variable costs are constant per unit.
5 . Only levels of activity affect costs and revenues
6. Only one product can be effectively dealt with

146. The importance of CVP
• Managers use this analysis to answer different questions
like
• How will incomes and costs be affected if we still sell
1.000 units? But if you expand or reduce selling prices?
If we expand our business in foreign markets ?
• The cost-volume-profit is a necessary tool for
forecasting and management control.
• We use the following abbreviations in CVP analysis
146
SP Unit selling price
VC Unit variable cost
CM Unit Contribution Margin
FC Total Fixed cost
Q Quantity of out put
TOI Target Operating Income
NI Net Income
t Tax rate

147. 6.2 Applications of CVP Analysis
1. Break-Even Analysis : Break even point (BEP) is
the level of sales at which profit is zero. According
to this definition, at break even point sales are
equal to fixed cost plus variable cost . Formula to
calculate BEP can be derived from the following
equation.
[Break even sales = fixed cost + variable cost]
TR-TC = Profit TR-TC=0
Where: Q= output and SP=price

151. 4. Sensitivity Analysis
• Sensitivity analysis is a “what if” technique that
managers use to examine how a result will
change if the original predicted data are not
achieved or if an underlying assumption
changes.
• In the context of CVP analysis, sensitivity analysis
answers the following questions:
– What will be the operating income if units sold
decrease by 15% from original prediction?
– What will be the operating income if variable cost per
unit increases by 20%?
151

152. 5. Safety Margin:
is the difference between budgeted sales
revenue and break-even sales revenue. The
amount by which sales can drop before
losses begin to be incurred.
Margin of Safety = Actual/budgeted Sales - Breakeven Sales
152

153. Exercise 6
ABC Company is a retailer of office soft ware packages .ABC
sells each office soft ware package at $200 to customers. ABC
purchases each packages for $120 from a whole seller .In
addition a fixed cost of $2000 will be incurred with in a
relevant range of 0- 120 soft ware packages bought and sold

154. f) Assume that currently ABC Company is selling 50
units of office software package; ABC is considering
placing an advertisement that will increase sales by 10%.
Additional fixed cost of $500 will be incurred because of
the advertisement. Should ABC advertise or not? Why?
or why not?
g) Assume that currently ABC Company is selling 50
units of office soft ware package. ABC is contemplating
whether to reduce the selling price to $185. At this
price, it will sell 60 unites. At this quantity the soft ware
whole seller who supplies the office soft ware will sell
the package to ABC for $115 per unit instead of
$120.Should ABC reduce the selling price or not? Why?
Or why not?

155. Unit 7: Alternative Choice Decisions
7.1 Steps in Decision Making?
Decision making is the process of choosing the best course of
action from alternatives available for a given problem. Decision
process involves several steps. These steps include:
1. Recognize and define the problem
2. Identify alternative solution to the problem
3. Identify the cost and benefits of each alternatives
4. Evaluate each alternatives solution from there cost and
benefit point of view
5. Assess qualitative factors related to each solution.
6. Select the alternatives with the greatest benefit
7. Implement the alternatives selected
8. Follow up

156. Relevant and Irrelevant Information
Is the item a future
cost or benefit?
The cost or
benefit is not
a relevant item.
Does the cost or
benefit differ
from decision
alternatives?
The cost or
benefit is not
a relevant item.
The cost or benefit

157. Decision Problems
The followings are some of the non routine decision
making problems which managers will encounter:
1. One time only special order
2. Make or buy (in sourcing or outsourcing)
3. Eliminate or keep an Unprofitable Segment
4. Sell at split off or process further decision
5. Pricing decision
6. Carrying cost of inventory
7. Equipment replacement decision
8. Product mix under capacity constraint

158. 7.2 One-Time-Only Special Orders
Accepting or rejecting special orders when
there is idle production capacity and the
special orders has no long-run implications
Decision Rule: does the special order generate
additional operating income?
– Yes – accept
– No – reject
Compares relevant revenues and relevant
costs to determine profitability

159. Sunbelt Company produces 100,000 Smoothie blenders per month,
which is 80% of plant capacity. Variable manufacturing costs are $8 per
unit. Fixed manufacturing costs are $400,000, or $4 per unit. The
blenders are normally sold directly to retailers at $20 each. Sunbelt has
an offer from Kensington Co. (a foreign wholesaler) to purchase an
additional 2,000 blenders at $11 per unit. Acceptance of the offer would
not affect normal sales of the product, and the additional units can be
manufactured without increasing plant capacity. What should
management do?
Exercise 7

160. Baron Company incurs the following annual costs in producing
25,000 ignition switches for motor scooters.
Instead of making its own switches, Baron Company might
purchase the ignition switches at a price of $8 per unit. “What do
you advice Baron Company?”
7.3 Make or Buy Decision

161. Cont’d -----
1. Assume that through buying the switches,
Baron Company can use the released productive
capacity to generate additional income of
$38,000 from producing a different product.
Should the management make or Buy switches?
2. Assume that through buying the switches,
Baron can rent the idle capacity for $ 12,000.
Should the management make or Buy switches?

162. Exercise 8: Woodmasters Inc. makes tables. The cost to
manufacture an unfinished table is $35. The selling price per
unfinished unit is $50. Woodmasters has unused capacity that can
be used to finish the tables and sell them at $60 per unit. For a
finished table, direct materials will increase $2 and direct labor costs
will increase $4. Variable manufacturing overhead costs will increase
by $2.40 (60% of direct labor). No increase is anticipated in fixed
manufacturing overhead. Should Woodmasters process further?
7.4 Sell or Process Further Decision

163. Exercise 9: Venus Company manufactures three models of tennis
rackets:
 Profitable lines: Pro and Master
 Unprofitable line: Champ
Illustration 21-16
Should Champ
be eliminated?
7.5 Eliminate or keep an Unprofitable Segment

164. The price of a good or service is affected by many factors.
 Company must have a good understanding of market forces.
 Where products are not easily differentiated from competitor
goods, prices are not set by the company, but rather by the
laws of supply and demand – such companies are called price
takers.
 Where products are unique or clearly distinguishable from
competitor goods, prices are set by the company.
7.6 Pricing Decision

165.  Laws of supply and demand significantly affect product price.
 To earn a profit, companies must focus on controlling costs.
 Requires setting a target cost that will provide the company’s
desired profit.
 Target cost: Cost that provides the desired profit when the
market determines a product’s price.
Target Costing

166.  First, company should identify its market niche where it wants to
compete.
 Second, company conducts market research to determine the
target price – the price the company believes will place it in the
optimal position for the target consumers.
 Third, company determines its target cost by setting a desired
profit.
 Last, company assembles a team to develop a product to meet
the company’s goals.
Target Costing

167.  In an environment with little or no competition, a company
may have to set its own price.
 When a company sets price, the price is normally a function of
product cost: cost-plus pricing.
 Approach requires establishing a cost base and adding a
markup to determine a target selling price.
 In determining the proper markup, a company must consider
competitive and market conditions.
 Size of the markup (the “plus”) depends on the desired return
on investment for the product:
Cost-Plus Pricing

168. Exercise 10: Thinkmore Products, Inc. is in the process of setting a
selling price on its new video camera pen. It is a functioning pen that
will record up to 2 hours of audio and video. The per unit variable
cost estimates for the new video camera pen are as follows.
Cost-Plus Pricing

169. In addition, Thinkmore has the following fixed costs per unit at a budgeted
sales volume of 10,000 units. If Thinkmore is planning to use 30% markup on
Cost, what will be the selling price under each of the following alternative
conditions
1. Total cost is used as a base
2. Variable cost is used as a base
Cost-Plus Pricing

170. 8.1 Fundamentals of Budgeting
A Budget is a formal written statement of management’s
plans for a specified future time period, expressed in
financial terms.
 Primary way to communicate agreed-upon objectives
to all parts of the company.
 Promotes efficiency.
 Control device - important basis for performance
evaluation once adopted.
Unit 8: Budgetary Planning and Control

171. Length of Budgeting
• Strategic plan is a plan that sets the overall goals
and objectives of the organization
• Long-range planning produces forecasted financial
statements for 5- or 10-year periods. Long-range
planning are coordinated with capital budgets
• Capital budget is a budget that details the planned
expenditures for facilities, equipment, new
products, and other long - term investments
• The master budget is an annual business plan that
includes a coordinated set of detailed operating
schedules and financial statements .

172. Financial budget
A major part of a master budget that focuses on the
income statement and its supporting schedules.
Operating budget (profit plan)
The part of a master budget that focuses on the effects that
the operating budgets and other plans (such as capital
budgets) will have on cash.
8.2 Operating and Financial Budget
The two major parts of a master budget are the operating budget and
the financial budget.

174.  Requires all levels of management to plan ahead.
 Provides definite objectives for evaluating performance.
 Creates an early warning system for potential problems.
 Facilitates coordination of activities within the business.
 Results in greater management awareness of the entity’s
overall operations.
 Motivates personnel throughout organization to meet
planned objectives.
Benefits of Budgeting

175. Exercise 11
On January 1, 2014, Hardin Company budget
committee has reached agreement on the
following data for the 6 months ending June 30,
2014.
– Sales : First quarter 5,000; second quarter 6,000; third
quarter 7,000.
– The selling price in the three quarters is $30 per unit
– Ending raw materials inventory: 40% of the next
quarter’s production requirements.
– Ending finished goods inventory: 25% of the next
quarter’s expected sales units.
– Third-quarter production: 7,200 units.

176. • The ending raw materials and finished goods
inventories at December 31, 2013, follow the same
percentage relationships to production and sales that
occur in 2014.
• Three pounds of raw materials are required to make
each unit of finished goods. Raw materials purchased
are expected to cost $4 per pound
• 2 hours of direct labor hours are required to produce
each unit at the rate of $3 per hour
Instructions: Prepare the following budgets for Hardin Company by
quarters for the 6-month period ended June 30, 2014.
a) Sales budget
b) Production budget
c) Raw material usage budget
d) Raw material purchase budget
e) Direct labor budget

177. Budgeting Techniques
• Zero Base Budgeting
• Incremental Budgeting
• Line Item Budgeting
• Program Budgeting
• Rolling Budgeting

178. Budgetary control involves the following activities.
8.3 Static Budget & Flexible Budget

179. Static budget is a projection of budget data at the
beginning level of activity.
 When used in budgetary control, each budget
included in the master budget is considered to be
static.
 Ignores data for different levels of activity.
 Compares actual results with budget data at the
activity level used in the master budget.
Static Budget

180. Flexible budget projects budget data for various levels of
activity.
 Budgetary process is more useful if it is
adaptable to changes in operating
conditions.
 Essentially a series of static budgets at
different activity levels.
 Can be prepared for each type of budget in
the master budget.
Flexible Budgets

181. 8.4 Flexible Budget and sales volume variance
• The difference between static budget and actual
performance is called static budget variance
• There are basically two reasons why actual
results might differ from the master budget
– Sales and other cost-driver activities were not the
same as originally forecasted (sales volume
variance).
– Revenue or variable costs per unit of activity and
fixed costs per period were not as expected (
Flexible budget variance)

183. 8.5 Cost Variances
In order to find out the real cause of a
variance, further variance analysis should be
made. The followings are the different levels
of variance analysis that can be made.
Level 0 variance analysis
Level 1 variance analysis
Level 2 variance analysis
Level 3 variance analysis
Level 4 variance analysis

184. Exercise 12
XYZ Company manufactures and sells jackets to
retailers. The company has three variable costs
and one fixed cost. There are no other
operating expenses. The followings are the
budgeted and actual data for XYZ Company for
the year ended 2015
Budget Actual
Units sold 12,000 units 10,000units
Selling price $120 $125
DM cost per unit 60 62.16
DL cost per unit 16 19.8
VMOH cost 12 13.05
FMOH cost $276,000 $285,000

185. There is no beginning or ending inventories and the
relevant rang in which fixed cost remains constant
is from 0-12,000 units
Requirements:
1. Prepare budgeted income statement for 2005
2. Prepare actual income statement for 2005
3. Make level 0 variance analysis
4. Make level 1 variance
5. prepare the flexible budget at the end of 2005
6. Make level 2 variance analysis

186. 8.6 Standard Costing
A standard is a norm against which the actual
performance can be measured.
– Ideal standard – a standard that a company
sets in which they meet their maximum degree
of efficiency. Does not take inefficient
conditions & wastages into consideration.
– Attainable standard – includes factors such as
lost time and normal wastes and spoilages.
Slide # 186

187. Determining Standards
• Materials cost standard
– Material Quantity standard is determined based on the
production or engineering department’s estimate of
the amounts and types of materials needed for
production of one unit of a product.
– Material price standard is based on the purchasing
agent’s knowledge of suppliers’ prices for one unit of
direct material.
• Labor cost standard
– Labor time standard is the time necessary to perform
one unit of a product established by experts under
normal condition.
– Labor rate standard :Human resource department will
provide the prevailing wage rates in the mkt.
Slide # 187

188. Determining Variances
• A variance is the difference between the actual
and the standard costs of materials, labor, and
overhead.
• The differences may be in usage and in prices.
• Therefore, the are four types of variance for
direct material and direct labor
– Materials price variance
– Materials quantity variance
– Labor rate variance
– Labor efficiency variance
Slide # 188

189. Materials and labor Variances
• DM Price or DL Rate Variances
• DM Quantity or DL Efficiency Variance
Slide # 189

190. Exercise 13
Assume XYZ Company that produces Male’s jacket in illustration 11 above and has
made the following standards for direct costs
Direct material
• Standard direct material for one Jacket---------- 2 squar yard
• Standard price per square yard of direct material------ $30
Direct labor
• Standard direct labor per Jacket----------------------- 0.8 hour
• Standard rate per hour ---------------------------------- $20
Actual result for each direct cost category for the 10,000 Jacket manufactured and sold
in 2015 are:
Direct material purchased and used
• inputs purchased and used ------------ 22,200 square Yard
• Actual price incurred per square yard -------------- $28
Direct manufacturing labor
• Direct manufacturing labor hours used ----------- 9000 hours
• Actual price incurred per labor hour ---------------- $22
Slide # 190

191. Required:
a) compute the flexible budget variance for direct
material
b) compute the flexible budget variance for direct
labor
c) compute the price and efficiency variance for
direct material cost and compare their sum with
the flexible budget variance you obtained in “a”
d) compute the price and efficiency variance for
direct labor cost and compare their sum with
the flexible budget variance you obtained in “b”
Slide # 191

192. 8.7 Causes of variances
Causes of Direct material variance
• Raw material price fluctuations
• Poor planning resulting in emergency purchase
• loss of discount
• high transportation cost
• failure to take advantage of seasonal purchase
• uneconomical size of order
• Poor quality material resulting in more wastage
• Careless in handling of material in stores and on
shop floor

193. Causes of Labor Variances
1. Revision in pay scale
2. Industrial unrest
3. Overtime working
4. Use of incorrect grade of workers
5. Use of trainees in place of regular workers
6. Poor planning and scheduling
7. Poor supervision
8. Poor maintenance of machines
9. Poor quality of material
10. Increase in labor turnover

194. Just-In-Time Inventory Methods
 Inventory system in which goods are manufactured or
purchased just in time for sale.
 Reduce defects in finished products progressively with
the goal of zero defects in the long run.

195. Balanced Scorecard
• The Balanced Scorecard is a strategic-based performance
measurement system that typically identifies objectives
and measures for four different perspectives
• In the early 1990s, Robert Kaplan and David Norton
introduced the balanced Scorecard
• Adopted by many companies in the 90’s
• More popular in Europe
• Popular with Government organizations
• Widely used in Education

196. The Balanced Scorecard perspectives

197. Refers to all business process associated with providing a
product or service.
For a manufacturing firm these include the following:
