Lecture notes:

Manufacturing Costs:

  • Direct materials
  • Direct labor
  • Variable overhead
  • Fixed overhead

Absorption costing--fixed overhead treated as manufacturing cost

VS.

Variable costing--fixed overhead not a production cost


Page 1033, Problem B5

Jones: CM > avoidable fixed costs (keep running)
Lee: CM < avoidable fixed costs (shut down)

Jones:

Change in NI

Change in CM

- 73,250

Change in FC

51,200

- 22,050

Unavoidable FC = 46,050

Lee:

Change in NI

Change in CM

- 54,740

Change in FC

55,100

360

Unavoidable FC = 26,140

Change in revenue

$4

Change in costs

$3

Change in profits

$1

Product B should be processed further.


Example: Make or Buy Decision

Unit manufacturing costs:

Materials

12.50

Labor

7.25

Variable manufacturing overhead

3.40

Fixed manufacturing overhead

4.75

Total

27.90


External purchase price = $23.95 per unit

Relevant manufacturing costs:

Materials

12.50

Labor

7.25

Variable manufacturing overhead

3.40

23.15


Make the component


Example: Special Order

Manufacturing and selling costs of product Z:

Direct materials

20.00

Direct labor

15.75

Variable overhead (manufacturing)

3.15

Fixed overhead (manufacturing)

2.95

Variable selling

3.00

Fixed selling

2.00

Total

46.85


Manufacturing capacity = 25,000 units
Budgeted sales = 21,000 units at $55 per unit
Special order = 5,000 units at $51 per unit

Accept this order because relevant costs > special order price

CM from special order = 5,000 (51 - 41.90) = 45,500

CM loss from regular sales = -1,000 (55 - 41.90) = -13,100

Change in CM = 32,400


Example: Present Value Problem

How much will you invest today in exchange for $10,000 seven years from today?
Interest Rate = 12%

*see AP 40 & 41

Table value = .452
Invest $4,520


Example: Annuity Problem

How much will you invest today in exchange for $5,000 per year for each of the next 10 years?
Interest Rate = 8%

*see AP 42

Table value = 6.71
Invest $33,550


Page AP-34

Exercise 8:

1)

24,000 x .497 = $11,928

2)

2,000 x 8.384 = $16,768

3)

5,000 x .65 = $3,250

4)

5,000 x 3.89 = $19,450


Exercise 12:

$5,200 x 4.639 = $24,133

Do not invest $30,000
