Cost Estimation

Why Know How Costs Behave? Must cover all costs!! Ability to predict future costs under different
circumstances and activity levels
WHY?
![Page 3: Cost Estimation. Why Know How Costs Behave? Must cover all costs!! Ability to predict future costs under different circumstances and activity levels.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022083005/56649f125503460f94c25ebe/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
True (always) Variable – ex: Material Step Variable – Technicians
5 computers = 1 tech 6 -10computers = 2 tech Would it cost you the same for 6 computers as 10?
Relevant Range Range: 100,000 110,000
Machines 5 6 Manpower 5 6 Facilities 2000sqft 5000sqft
TERMINOLOGY

Defined: remain the same every month Can change but will remain the same after that
Committed Costs – Can’t be significantly reduced – locked in (rent)
Discretionary Costs –Can be managed – not locked in (advertising)
FIXED COSTSpg 30-32
![Page 5: Cost Estimation. Why Know How Costs Behave? Must cover all costs!! Ability to predict future costs under different circumstances and activity levels.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022083005/56649f125503460f94c25ebe/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Semi Variable - includes both a fixed costs and a variable cost
Examples: Utilities, licenses, maintenance costs, nursing wages
MIXED COSTS(pg 33)
![Page 6: Cost Estimation. Why Know How Costs Behave? Must cover all costs!! Ability to predict future costs under different circumstances and activity levels.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022083005/56649f125503460f94c25ebe/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
To estimate the mixed cost use this formula
Total Cost = Fixed Cost + Variable Cost a + bx
Total Utilities Costs = $200 + .30 per kilowatt(2000 kilowatt) $260 = $200 + $60
COST FORMULA (pg 34)
![Page 7: Cost Estimation. Why Know How Costs Behave? Must cover all costs!! Ability to predict future costs under different circumstances and activity levels.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022083005/56649f125503460f94c25ebe/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Fixed Cost - $5,000 Variable Cost- $3.00/per unit
If we sold 10,000 units what would be the cost? $5,000 + 3.00 (10,000) = $35,000 Per Unit Cost 3.50
Bad Times only sell ½ 5,000 units: Cost? $5,000 + 3.00(5,000) = $20,000 Per Unit 4.00
Exercise 2-3 pg 53
Application

To determine the fixed cost and variable cost from total cost
SCATTERGRAM (quick and dirty) HIGH LOW (easy but not accurate) REGRESSION (Computer and accurate)
Three Ways
![Page 9: Cost Estimation. Why Know How Costs Behave? Must cover all costs!! Ability to predict future costs under different circumstances and activity levels.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022083005/56649f125503460f94c25ebe/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Y= dependent variable = $$$$ X=independent variable= activity or
volume (causes the cost) Fixed cost is where the line crosses the Y axis
SCATTERGRAM(pg 35-38)
Fixed Costs
Y
X

1. 0 is the corner where X and Y meet 2. For Y axis take the highest # to an even # add 20%
for the maximum # 3. Divide in ¼ spans. 4. Do same for X axis. To plot the dots 1. go over to the x axis then up to the matching $ on y
axis. Put a dot. Do same for all total cost per activity 2. Draw a straight line that has the smallest space
between the line and the dots. 3. Where this line meets the y line is the fixed cost. The
difference between the line and the dot is the variable cost.
Exercise 2-10 pg 56
HOW DO YOU PLOT THE GRAPH

1. Highlight table 2. Select Chart Wizard 3. Select Scattergram
Do it on the computer?

Rough Estimate Not exact Good Excel worksht
1. Determine high driver and associated cost 2. Determine low driver and associated cost 3. Subtract two driver and the two costs 4. divide cost by driver = variable cost per
unit 5. units variable cost x driver = total variable
$ 6. Subtract total cost from variable $ = Fixed
$ Exercise 2-4 pg 54

Best if use computer 1. Create table with driver and $ 2. Tools 3. Data Analysis 4. Identify what column is the x (driver) 5. Identify what column is the y 6. Identify where you want the graph
