Are standards the same as budgets?
A standard is the expected cost for one
unit.
A budget is the expected cost for all
units.
Standards vs. Budgets

Setting Standard CostsPractical standards
should be set at levelsthat are currently
attainable withreasonable andefficient effort.

Setting Standard CostsI agree. Ideal standards,
that are based on perfection, are
unattainable and discourage most
employees.

Standard Cost Card – Variable Production Cost
A standard cost card for one unit of product might look like this:

Standard
This variance is unfavorablebecause the actual cost
exceeds the standard cost.
A standard cost variance is the amount by whichan actual cost differs from the standard cost.

Standard Cost Variances
I see that thereis an unfavorable
variance.
But why arevariances
important to me?
First, they point to causes ofproblems and directions
for improvement.
Second, they trigger investigations in departments
having responsibility for incurring the costs.

The standard price is used to compute the quantity varianceso that the production manager is not held responsible for
the purchasing manager’s performance.

Setting Direct Labor Standards
RateStandards
Often a singlerate is used that reflectsthe mix of wages earned.
TimeStandards
Use time and motion studies for
each labor operation.

Responsibility for Labor Variances
Production Manager
Production managers and H. R. managers are usually held
accountablefor labor variancesbecause they can
influence the:
Mix of skill levelsassigned to work tasks.
Level of employee motivation.
Quality of production supervision.
Quality of training provided to employees.

Setting Variable Manufacturing Overhead
Standards RateStandards
The rate is the variable portion of the
predetermined overhead rate.
QuantityStandards
The quantity is the activity in the allocation
base used for predetermined overhead.

Responsibility for Overhead Variances
Production Manager
Production managers areusually held accountablefor overhead variances
because they caninfluence the:
Costs incurred on the shop floor.
Quality of production supervision.

Variance Analysis and Management by Exception
How do I knowwhich variances to
investigate?
Larger variances, in dollar amount or as a
percentage of the standard, are
investigated first.

PotentialProblems
Emphasis on negativemay impact morale.
Emphasizing standardsmay exclude other
important objectives.
Favorable variancesmay be misinterpreted.
Continuous improvementmay be moreimportant than
meeting standards.
Standard costreports may
not be timely.
