Standard Costs

- are usually associated with a manufacturing company's costs of direct material, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead.

10-4

Standard Costing

• is a control method involving the preparation of detailed cost and sales budgets

• It is then compared with the actual results for a specific account period and any significant variances between the actual and the budgeted results are investigated

10-5

Standard Costing

• Unexpected trends are corrected if they are not acceptable or they cannot be accommodated.

10-6

Cost variance (CV)

is the amount of money that was actually spent on a project or a part of a project compared to the amount of work that was actually accomplished. Cost variance is the budgeted cost of work performed minus the actual cost of work performed.

Perfection versus Practical Standards: A Behavioral Issue

Should we usepractical standards

or perfection standards?

Practical standardsshould be set at levels

that are currentlyattainable with reasonable andefficient effort.

10-14

I agree. Perfection standards are

unattainable and therefore discouraging

to most employees.

Use of Standards by Service Organizations

• Standard cost analysis may be used in any organization with repetitive tasks.

• A relationship between tasks and output measures must be established.

Standard Costs

Let’s use the concepts

of the general model to

calculate standard cost

variances, starting with

direct material.

10-22

Hanson Inc. has the following direct material standard to manufacture one Zippy:

1.5 pounds per Zippy at $4.00 per pound

Last week 1,700 pounds of material were purchased and used to make 1,000 Zippies.

The material cost a total of $6,630.

Material Variances Zippy

10-23

What is the actual price per pound paid for the material?

a. $4.00 per pound.

b. $4.10 per pound.

c. $3.90 per pound.

d. $6.63 per pound.

Material Variances Zippy

10-24

What is the actual price per pound paid for the material?

a. $4.00 per pound.

b. $4.10 per pound.

c. $3.90 per pound.

d. $6.63 per pound.

AP = $6,630 ÷ 1,700 lbs.AP = $3.90 per lb.

Material Variances Zippy

10-25

Hanson’s direct-material price variance (MPV)for the week was:

a. $170 unfavorable.

b. $170 favorable.

c. $800 unfavorable.

d. $800 favorable.

Material Variances Zippy

10-26

Hanson’s direct-material price variance (MPV)for the week was:

a. $170 unfavorable.

b. $170 favorable.

c. $800 unfavorable.

d. $800 favorable. MPV = AQ(AP - SP) MPV = 1,700 lbs. × ($3.90 - 4.00) MPV = $170 Favorable

Material Variances Zippy

10-27

The standard quantity of material thatshould have been used to produce

1,000 Zippies is:

a. 1,700 pounds.

b. 1,500 pounds.

c. 2,550 pounds.

d. 2,000 pounds.

1,000 Zippies is:

a. 1,700 pounds.

d. 2,000 pounds.

SQ = 1,000 units × 1.5 lbs per unit SQ = 1,500 lbs

a. $170 unfavorable.

Material Variances Summary

10-32

The price variance is computed on the entire

quantity purchased.

The quantity variance is computed only on the

quantity used.

Hanson purchased and used 1,700 pounds.

How are the variances computed if the amount purchased differs from

the amount used?

ZippyMaterial Variances

10-33

Hanson Inc. has the following material standard to manufacture one Zippy:

1.5 pounds per Zippy at $4.00 per pound

Last week 2,800 pounds of material were purchased at a total cost of $10,920, and 1,700 pounds were used to make 1,000

Zippies.

Price variance increases because quantity

10-36

Isolation of Material Variances

I need the variances as soonas possible so that I canbetter identify problems

and control costs.

You accountants just don’tunderstand the problems

we production managers have.

Okay. I’ll start computingthe price variance when

material is purchased andthe quantity variance assoon as material is used.

10-37

Standard Costs

Now let’s calculate standard cost variances for direct labor.

10-38

Hanson Inc. has the following direct labor standard to manufacture one Zippy:

1.5 standard hours per Zippy at $10.00 per direct labor hour

Last week 1,550 direct labor hours were worked at a total labor cost of $15,810 to

make 1,000 Zippies.

Labor Variances Zippy

• If actual costs are greater than standard costs

• tells management that if everything else stays constant the company's actual profit will be less than planned.

10-52

Favorable variance

• If actual costs are less than standard costs the variance is favorable

• tells management that if everything else stays constant the actual profit will likely exceed the planned profit.

Behavioral Impact of Standard Costing

• Variances evaluate personnel:– Variances may be used to evaluate personnel,

often with regard to salary increases, bonuses, and promotions

10-55

Behavioral Impact of Standard Costing

• Negative and positive incentives created– Such incentives can have positive and negative

effects, as a bonus plan may prompt a manager to pursue actions that are not in the best interests of the organization.

10-56

If I buy cheaper materials, my direct-materials expenses will be lower than

what is budgeted. Then I’ll get my bonus. But we may lose customers because of

lower quality.

Behavioral Impact of Standard Costing

10-57

Controllability of Variances

• Importance of identifying who controls: It is rare that one person controls any event; however, it is often possible to identify the manager who is most able to influence a particular variance.

10-59

Controllability of Variances• Variance often affect more than one

input: Variances often interact, making investigation and controllability difficult.

– For example, a labor efficiency variance may be caused by problems not only with labor but by problems with machinery and material as well.

– In addition, managers sometimes trade-off variances, purposely incurring an unfavorable variance that is more than offset by favorable variances.

10-60

Interaction among Variances

I am not responsible for the unfavorable labor

efficiency variance!

You purchased cheapmaterial, so it took more

time to process it.

You used too much time because of poorly

trained workers and poor supervision.

Standard Costs Variances Cost flows

• In a standard-cost system, costs flow thought the same accounts in the general ledger

• however, they flow through at standard cost.

• In other words, Work-in-Process Inventory, Finished-Goods Inventory, and Cost of Goods Sold are carried at standard cost.

10-63

Standard Costs and Variances Differences recorded in variance

accounts• The differences between standard costs and

the actual costs incurred are recorded in variance accounts instead of actual costs.

• Unfavorable variances are recorded as debits

• favorable variances are recorded as credits.

10-64

Standard Costs and Variances

• Variances are normally closed at the end of the accounting period to Cost of Goods Sold.

10-67

Sensible method

• It provides a sensible method to compare budgeted costs to actual costs at the actual level of output.

10-68

Management by exception• Managers can practice management by exception.

• (MBE) "policy by which management devotes its time to investigating only those situations in which actual results differ significantly from planned results. The idea is that management should spend its valuable time concentrating on the more important items (such as shaping the company's future strategic course). Attention is given only to material deviations requiring investigation."

10-69

Benchmark for performance

• It provides a benchmark for performance evaluation and employee rewards.

10-70

Stable product cost

• Standard costs provide a stable product cost. Actual costs may fluctuate erratically, whereas standard costs are changed only periodically.

10-71

Less expensive

• Standard systems are usually less expensive to operate than actual or normalized systems

Criticisms of Standard Costing

Not specific

Focus on cost minimization

Too aggregate, and untimely

DisadvantagesToo much focus on direct-labor

Narrow definition

Stable production required

Shorter life cycles

10-74

Too aggregated and untimely

• Variances are too aggregated and arrive too late to be useful. Variances should focus on activities, specific product lines, production batches, and/or FMS cells.

Barry
Constituting or amounting to a whole; total

10-75

Focuses on less important production factors

• Variances focus too much on the cost and efficiency of labor, which is becoming relatively unimportant factor of production.

10-76

Less stability of manufacturing environment

• Standard costs rely on a stable production environment, and flexible manufacturing systems have reduced the stability, with frequent switching among a variety of products on the same manufacturing line.

10-77

Too focused on costs rather than quality

• Standards focus too much on cost minimization and not enough on product quality, customer service, and other contemporary issues.
