  2. EGR 403 - The Big Picture • Framework:Accounting& Breakeven Analysis • “Time-value of money” concepts - Ch. 3, 4 • Analysis methods • Ch. 5 - Present Worth • Ch. 6 - Annual Worth • Ch. 7, 8 - Rate of Return (incremental analysis) • Ch. 9 - Benefit Cost Ratio & other techniques • Refining the analysis • Ch. 10, 11 - Depreciation & Taxes • Ch. 12 - Replacement Analysis EGR 403 - Cal Poly Pomona - SA1

  3. Introduction • Engineers need to understand accounting to fully understand the language of middle and upper management • Performance evaluations of engineers often based on accounting data (e.g., budgeting) • It is difficult to interpret information and find accounting mistakes without some accounting background EGR 403 - Cal Poly Pomona - SA1

  4. Introduction (cont’d) • Accounting courses for engineers: IME 239 or take courses in an MBA program • Engineering projects are undertaken based largely on their ability to generate “Profit”. Profit is an accounting term. • Profit = Revenue - Expenses • Revenue (money in) is a.k.a. “income” or “sales” • Expenses (money out) are a.k.a. “costs” EGR 403 - Cal Poly Pomona - SA1

  5. Introduction (cont’d) • Manufacturing is cost driven • Products/processes designed to use least $$ • Manufacturing costs need to be controlled • “Continuous Improvement” programs reduce cost • Intangible considerations are also important • Resources & Capabilities • Strategy • EGR 403 will concentrate on the financial aspects of economic decision making. EGR 403 - Cal Poly Pomona - SA1

  6. Financial Statements • Balance Sheet (General Accounting) • Snap shot of what the company owns and how much they owe. Discloses information to investors. • Income Statement (Cost Accounting) • Shows profit for the period based on Generally Accepted Accounting Practices (GAAP) • Cash Flow Statement (Sources & Uses of Funds) • Shows the actual need for cash over time so that the company can manage their cash properly • The first two statements will be discussed EGR 403 - Cal Poly Pomona - SA1

  7. Accounting Concepts • Cigar Box Accounting Method - Revenue goes into the cigar box. Expenses go out. What is left is your “profit”. • Accrual Accounting - Expenses are matched with revenue so that profit reflects actual activity and expenses in the time period. The matching principle is necessary for taxation and reporting performance. EGR 403 - Cal Poly Pomona - SA1

  8. Costs & Depreciation • Costs fall into two categories: • Expenses - useful life of less than one year • Fixed - do not vary (e.g., lease costs, rent, insurance) • Variable - vary with volume of production (e.g., labor, materials, supplies, rent, etc.) Cost of Good Sold = COGS. • Capital Expenditures - $ spend on improvements or additions with useful life greater than one year (e.g., machinery, buildings, furniture, etc.). • Depreciation - allocation of the cost of capital expenditures so that revenue is matched with expenses for items that will last more than one year (Land is not depreciable). EGR 403 - Cal Poly Pomona - SA1

  9. Depreciation Example • You purchase a $50,000 CNC machine. Useful life = 5 years. Salvage value = 0. • If you deduct the entire $50K as an expense the first year, you are not matching the revenue since there are 4 years of life left. • Straight line depreciation = $50,000/5 years = $10,000/year. • Depreciation expense = $10,000/year for 5 years. This matches revenue with expenses. EGR 403 - Cal Poly Pomona - SA1

  10. Income (total revenue) Expenses Fixed Costs COGS (Variable) Depreciation Total Expenses Gross Profit (Income - Expenses) State & Federal Taxes (~40%) Net Profit (“Bottom Line”) $100K $25K $50K $10K -$85K $15K -$ 6K $ 9K Profit & Loss Statement(a.k.a. “P & L”, or Income Statement) EGR 403 - Cal Poly Pomona - SA1

  11. What Happens to Net Profit? • “Dividends” are paid to owners (share holders) as part of their return for investing in the business. Their money is at risk. • Example: $9K Net Profit • $3K to dividends (1/3 used here as example) • $6K retained in the business • Dividends are considered “personal income” for shareholders and therefore taxed again (double taxation). So the majority of corporate profits go to taxes. (note to those listening to narrative: go to slide 12 when retained earnings are mentioned) EGR 403 - Cal Poly Pomona - SA1

  12. What Happens to Net Profit? (cont’d) What can the company do with the remaining $6K? This is “capital allocation” • “Retained Earnings” - invest in facilities & equipment • Retire debt (pay off loans, retire bonds) • Profit sharing, bonuses, indirect benefits • Research & development • Permanent raises or other increased benefits • Help the community (donations, scholarships, etc.) • Buy back stock EGR 403 - Cal Poly Pomona - SA1

  13. “The Bottom Line” • Profits were traditionally shown on the books using black ink. A company showing a profit is sometimes said to be “in the black.” • Losses (negative profits) were traditionally shown on the books using red ink. A company showing a loss is sometimes said to be “in the red.” EGR 403 - Cal Poly Pomona - SA1
