Variable upward can be depicted as those overheads that typically change straightforwardly corresponding and like the varieties in the particular creation exercises, cost drivers, some remarkable volume measures or deals movement (Schiff, 1987). The ramifications is that an increment or reduction in the expense causes a corresponding increment or abatement in the expense or volume driver. On a similar note, the variable expense change proportionately and comparatively to the results or the association's movement levels (Hasan, 2015). In such manner, variable expenses are commonly founded on the exercises given that an organization normally brings about them because of the action, work done or yield. This suggests that in the event that the association's result significantly increases, costs will likewise significantly increase (Largay, 1973). Also, shutting down an organization for quite a while, no factor costs will be caused.
Accepting that Green Valley produces noodle, the organization will require unrefined components like sugar, different flavors, salt, flour, sodium bicarbonate, vegetable oils, and starch (Fu, 2008). On a similar note, the organization will without a doubt enlist work and concentrated machines to settle the item. In this way, the item should be bundled in very much planned bundles (Hyun et al., 2011). In this case, variable costing includes direct costs, work and unrefined substances. The presumption here is that Green Valley should buy material per bundle at Rs 2. It additionally needs to cater for the work in view of the piece rate framework where they offer five rupees for every parcel. Also, the organization needs to cause different backhanded costs incorporate 10,000 rupees for the creation site's lease. Creation gear is supposed to deteriorate (Del Giudice et al., 2016) with 20,000 rupees. In addition, the publicizing costs are 20,000 rupees, with sales rep commission costing three rupees for every bundle. Then again, Green Valley intends to deliver 10,000 bundles and charges 25 rupees for every parcel.
Based on the above information;
Total variable costs of manufacturing each packet = Direct Expenses + Labor + Materials= 2 + 5 + 2= 9 rupees for each packet.
The Total variable cost for distribution and selling costs for each packet = Labelling and packaging + Commission paid to the salesmen.= 5 + 2 = 5 Rupees for every packet.
Total variable cost for the noodles = 14 Rupees each packet
Total fixed manufacturing cost = compensation + Depreciation + Rent= 20, 000 + 20, 000 + 10, 000= 50, 000 Rupees.
Total fixed distribution as well as selling cost = Warehouse rent + Advertising= 20, 000 + 10, 000 = 30, 000 Rupees.
Total fixed cost = 80, 000 Rupees.

Marginal costing is a technique that uses the concept of marginal cost, which is the change in total cost from producing one additional unit. It involves separating total costs into fixed and variable costs. Contribution margin is the difference between selling price and variable cost per unit, and shows the amount available to cover fixed costs and generate profit. Cost-volume-profit (CVP) analysis examines how costs, revenue, and profit change with production volume. It can be used to determine the break-even point and plan production levels required to achieve profit targets. Managers use CVP to make decisions about pricing, production, investment, and financing.
1. Calculate contribution margin per customer as average revenue ($8) minus average variable cost ($3), which is $5.
2. Calculate break-even point in customers as fixed costs ($450,000) divided by contribution margin per customer ($5), which is 90,000 customers.
3. Calculate taxable income as contribution margin ($5 per customer) times number of customers minus fixed costs ($450,000).
4. Calculate income taxes as 30% of taxable income.
5. Calculate net income as taxable income minus income taxes.
This document discusses absorption costing and variable costing. Absorption costing includes both variable and fixed production costs in inventory and cost of goods sold, while variable costing includes only variable costs. Variable costing is more consistent with contribution margin analysis and decision making. Absorption costing is required for external financial reporting and tax purposes, but variable costing provides more useful information to management for decision making.
Mel Harrison, manager of Border Corporation’s Home Office Products Division, is considering adding a new product line but wants to analyze the numbers first. The division has led the company in return on investment (ROI) for three years.
The division's most recent ROI was 24%. Adding the new product line would require $1 million in additional assets but is expected to generate $2 million in annual sales. The line's variable costs are 60% of sales and fixed costs are $620,000.
If the minimum required ROI is 13% and performance is evaluated using residual income, the division's residual income was $48,000 originally but would become $168,000 if the new line is added, so Mel
This document discusses break-even analysis, which accountants use to determine the sales volume needed for a business to break even or make a target profit. It defines break-even point as the sales level where revenue equals total costs. The document presents examples of how changes in factors like fixed costs, variable costs, or selling price impact the break-even point in units or dollars. It also explains how a target profit can be used to estimate the required sales volume.
- Costs can be classified as either variable or fixed based on how they react to changes in business activity
- Variable costs change in proportion to changes in activity, while fixed costs remain unchanged with activity levels
- Understanding cost behavior and classifications is important for cost-volume-profit (CVP) analysis, which analyzes the relationship between costs, sales volume, and profits
The document discusses various costing methods and contribution margin analysis techniques used for managerial decision making. It provides examples of calculating income statements and contribution margins under absorption costing and variable costing. It also illustrates how contribution margin analysis can be used to evaluate performance by market segment, product line, salesperson, and route for various companies including a fragrance producer and airline.

The document contains a practice exam for an accounting course with multiple choice and essay questions covering various topics such as cost accounting, budgeting, and investment analysis. Specifically:
- The exam contains 3 sets of questions, with each set containing between 5-7 questions. Questions assess topics like cost-volume-profit analysis, process costing, absorption vs variable costing, budgeting, and make-or-buy decisions.
- Sample questions calculate break-even points, predetermined overhead rates, income statements, cash budgets, and net present value of investment opportunities.
- Answers are provided for some questions, including calculations and brief explanations of results. Other questions only list the requirements and provide no solutions.
Colour Plus manufactures and sells jackets. It analyzed variances using static and flexible budgets.
The static budget variance showed unfavorable variances due to actual production and sales being lower than budgeted. The flexible budget revealed this variance was due to lower sales volume.
The flexible budget variance was also unfavorable, indicating higher actual costs and lower revenues than the flexed budget. This variance is due to differences in pricing and costs on a per unit basis.
Conducting variance analysis with both static and flexible budgets allows Colour Plus to determine whether variances are due to inaccurate forecasting or controllable performance issues.
The document discusses operational auditing and concepts related to evaluating organizational effectiveness and efficiency. It defines operational auditing as evaluating the effectiveness and/or efficiency of operations, with effectiveness referring to accomplishing objectives and efficiency meaning reducing costs without reducing effectiveness. Economy is defined as maximizing the use of limited resources to achieve goals. Examples of types of inefficiency include acquiring goods and services too costly, lack of bids for purchases, raw materials not being available when needed, duplication of employee efforts, and work being done that serves no purpose.
This document discusses concepts related to cost-volume-profit analysis and break-even analysis. It defines marginal costing, contribution margin, profit-volume ratio, break-even point, and margin of safety. It also includes examples showing how to calculate these metrics using cost and revenue data. The document is intended to help managers understand how costs, sales volume, and price affect profitability.
Sales mix, or the proportions of different products sold, can impact profits even if total sales remain the same. Introducing a new low-profit product or dropping a high-profit one can decrease profits. Companies can improve profits in a slow-growth market by shifting sales mix toward higher-profit products. Sales managers must consider sales mix when setting commission plans to incentivize selling profitable items. A sales mix variance calculation measures differences between actual and planned sales mixes.
This document discusses the key differences between managerial accounting and financial accounting. Managerial accounting provides internal information for managers to use for planning, directing, monitoring and controlling operations, while financial accounting provides external information to stakeholders. It also discusses decision-making tools in managerial accounting like contribution margin and break-even analysis which are used to evaluate product lines and determine the sales volume needed to cover total costs.

Bullzeye is a discount retailer offering a wide range of products,.docxCruzIbarra161
Bullzeye is a discount retailer offering a wide range of products, including: home goods, clothing, toys, and food. The company is a regional retailer with 10 brick-and-mortar stores as well as a popular online store. Due to the recent credit card data breaches of various prominent national retail companies (e.g., Target, Home Depot, Staples), the Bullzeye Board of Directors has taken particular interest in information security, especially as it pertains to the protection of credit cardholder data within the Bullzeye environment. The Board has asked executive management to evaluate and strengthen the enterprise’s information security infrastructure, where needed.
In order to respond to the Board regarding their preparedness for a cyber-security attack, the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) has engaged your IT consulting firm to identify the inherent risks and recommend control remediation strategies to prevent or to detect and appropriately respond to data breaches. Your firm has been requested to liaison with the Internal Audit Department during the engagement. Your first step is to gain an understanding of Bullzeye’s IT environment. The Chief Audit Executive (CAE) schedules a meeting with key Bullzeye leadership personnel, including the CFO, Chief Information Officer (CIO), and Chief Information Security Officer (CISO).
The following key information was obtained.
Background
IT Security Framework/Policy -
Bullzeye has an information security policy, which was developed by the CISO. The policy was developed in response to an internal audit conducted by an external firm hired by the CAE. The policy is not based on one specific IT control framework but considers elements contained within several frameworks. An information security committee has been recently formed to discuss new security risks and to develop mitigation strategies.
The meeting will be held monthly and include the CISO and other key IT Directors reporting to the CIO.
In addition, a training program was implemented last year in order to provide education on various information security topics (e.g., social engineering, malware, etc.). The program requires that all staff within the IT department complete an annual information security training webinar and corresponding quiz. The training program is complemented by a monthly e-mail sent to IT staff, which highlights relevant information security topics.
General IT Environment -
Most employees in the corporate office are assigned a standard desktop computer, although certain management personnel in the corporate and retail locations are issued a laptop if they can demonstrate their need to work remotely. The laptops are given a standard Microsoft Windows operating system image, which includes anti-malware/anti-virus software and patch update software among others.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

A Visual Guide to 1 Samuel | A Tale of Two HeartsSteve Thomason
These slides walk through the story of 1 Samuel. Samuel is the last judge of Israel. The people reject God and want a king. Saul is anointed as the first king, but he is not a good king. David, the shepherd boy is anointed and Saul is envious of him. David shows honor while Saul continues to self destruct.
Cozy Bookstore Case Study CLA2Variable upward can be dep
1. Cozy Bookstore Case Study CLA2
Variable upward can be depicted as those overheads that
typically change straightforwardly corresponding and like the
varieties in the particular creation exercises, cost drivers, some
remarkable volume measures or deals movement (Schiff, 1987).
The ramifications is that an increment or reduction in the
expense causes a corresponding increment or abatement in the
expense or volume driver. On a similar note, the variable
expense change proportionately and comparativel y to the results
or the association's movement levels (Hasan, 2015). In such
manner, variable expenses are commonly founded on the
exercises given that an organization normally brings about them
because of the action, work done or yield. This suggests that in
the event that the association's result significantly increases,
costs will likewise significantly increase (Largay, 1973). Also,
shutting down an organization for quite a while, no factor costs
will be caused.
Accepting that Green Valley produces noodle, the organization
will require unrefined components like sugar, different flavors,
salt, flour, sodium bicarbonate, vegetable oils, and starch (Fu,
2008). On a similar note, the organization will without a doubt
enlist work and concentrated machines to settle the item. In this
way, the item should be bundled in very much planned bundles
(Hyun et al., 2011). In this case, variable costing includes direct
costs, work and unrefined substances. The presumption here is
that Green Valley should buy material per bundle at Rs 2. It
additionally needs to cater for the work in view of the piece rate
framework where they offer five rupees for every parcel. Also,
the organization needs to cause different backhanded costs
incorporate 10,000 rupees for the creation site's lease. Creation
2. gear is supposed to deteriorate (Del Giudice et al., 2016) with
20,000 rupees. In addition, the publicizing costs are 20,000
rupees, with sales rep commission costing three rupees for
every bundle. Then again, Green Valley intends to deliver
10,000 bundles and charges 25 rupees for every parcel.
Based on the above information;
Total variable costs of manufacturing each packet = Direct
Expenses + Labor + Materials= 2 + 5 + 2= 9 rupees for each
packet.
The Total variable cost for distribution and selling costs for
each packet = Labelling and packaging + Commission paid to
the salesmen.= 5 + 2 = 5 Rupees for every packet.
Total variable cost for the noodles = 14 Rupees each packet
Total fixed manufacturing cost = compensation + Depreciation
+ Rent= 20, 000 + 20, 000 + 10, 000= 50, 000 Rupees.
Total fixed distribution as well as selling cost = Warehouse rent
+ Advertising= 20, 000 + 10, 000 = 30, 000 Rupees.
Total fixed cost = 80, 000 Rupees.

In the given situation there are two assistance divisions and
three working offices inside an organization. Make a
departmental cost portion bookkeeping sheet for the
4. organization.
The promoting office assigns their costs to the working
divisions based on the deals. The publicizing divisi on has S24,
000 in costs to designate. Every office has a specific measure of
deals. The deal for that division is partitioned by the absolute
deals of the organization to decide the rate to apportion to every
office. This rate is then duplicated by the publicizing division's
costs to decide the assignment sum.

based on the quantity of procurement orders by every division.
The buying office has $34;000 in costs to apportion. Every
office has a specific amount of procurement orders. The amount
of procurement orders for that division is partitioned by the all -
out amount of procurement orders for the whole to decide the
rate to allot to every office. The buying office's costs to decide
the designation sum then duplicate this rate.
