  1. May 11, 2009 Systems Design: Job-Order Costing

  2. May 11, 2009 • System Design – Job Order Costing • What is Product Costing • Types of Product Costing • When and how to use Job-Order Costing • Journal entries and income statement

  3. Product Costing • Product Costing is the mapping and allocating of costs to a specific product • Its purpose is to provide executives with critical information including: • How to minimize costs • How to price a product competitively and profitably • There are two main methodologies of Product Costing • 1. Job-Order Costing – each job is different • 2. Process Costing – many of the same products

  4. Job Order Costing • Job-Order Costing is the costing methodology applied in companies in the following circumstances: • Produce many different products or packages • Manufacture to order so each job is different • Examples would be: • SNC (engineering and construction) • Airbus (aircraft) • Other? • In these cases, a company needs to know, often on an order by order basis, what are the costs associated with fulfilling the order • Cost records for each job will be required to support decision making and billing of the customer

  5. Process Costing • Process Costing is the costing methodology applied in companies in the following circumstances: • Produce many units of a single product • Each unit is substantially similar to other units • Examples would be: • Lenovo (PC manufacturing) • Frito lay (Snacks and beverages) • Others? • That each of these products are substantially the same, managers are able to apply the same average cost to each unit

  6. Distinguishing between Product Cost and Job-Order Costing Situations • Example • Abitibi • Pulp & paper • Bombardier • Aircraft • Toyota • Barrick Gold • Mining production • Aquiline Resources • Mining exploration • Coca-cola • System

  7. Job-Order Costing—An Overview • Our objective is to arrive at the Product Cost of for each Job • There are three categories of cost which go into this build up • Direct Materials • Direct Labour • Manufacturing Overhead • Direct Materials can be easily traced to any particular job • A requisition for Raw Materials is issued identifying what job the inventory is for • Direct Labour can be easily traced to jobs • Each labourer submits a log of what jobs he/she worked on and for what amount of time • Manufacturing Overhead – this is where judgment and methodologies are required

  8. Job-Order Costing – Manufacturing Overhead • Manufacturing Overhead • Indirect Materials • Indirect Labour • Other Overhead (tax on factory, depreciation, insurance, etc.) • Take two cost item examples: • Depreciation on production machinery, and • Cost of the labourer who maintains the production equipment • Other? • These are Product Costs because they are costs associated with producing products • As a test, we can ask if the company did not produce the product, would it have purchased the machinery in the first place or hired the people?

  9. Job-Order Costing – Allocating Manufacturing Overhead • Manufacturing Overhead Costs need to be somehow allocated to each job • If they were not allocated, the company would underestimate its cost, and therefore under-price its work • Manufacturing Overhead is applied to the jobs that are in process • It can be allocated on a number of bases: • Direct labour hours • Direct labour dollars • Machine hours • At this level, selecting the allocation base is done based largely on judgment • It may help to select the largest cost; eg labour or machine costs in order to maximize any correlation • Later in the course, Activity Based Costing will hone some of this

  10. Estimated total manufacturingoverhead cost for the coming period POHR = Estimated total units in theallocation base for the coming period Job-Order Costing – Allocating Manufacturing Overhead • Calculating the Pre-determined Overhead Rate • Indirect labour = $450,000 • Indirect materials = $200,000 • Other manufacturing overhead = $50,000 • Forecast direct labour hours = 700,000 • Calculate the POHR

  11. Job-Order Costing – An Example • Happy Co has its first Job of the period which it needs to cost • Use the POHR from the previous example • Assume • Direct labour required = 200 hours • Labour costs = $7.00 per hour • Direct Materials = $400.00 • Calculate the Product Cost for job 1

  12. Job-Order Costing – Example Solution • Use the POHR from the previous example = $1 per hour DL • Direct labour required = 200 hours • Labour costs = $7.00 per hour • Direct Materials = $400.00 • Product cost for Job 1 is $2,000

  13. Job-Order Costing – The Documentation • In the real world, there are documents to track and authorize all expenditures, including • Materials requisition forms to track and control Direct Materials • Employee time tickets to track Direct Labour • The output from these documents feed into a Job Costing Sheet upon which the POHR is applied to arrive at the final cost of the job • Samples to follow (with a $4 POHR assumption)

  21. Caution! Interpreting Job Costs • 1. Job Order Costing is based on an ESTIMATE of business volumes • If volumes are higher than the estimate • Manufacturing Overhead will have been over allocated • Fixed costs and therefore total cost will actually be lower per unit • Products as a result may be overpriced, which in turn could reduce demand and impact production decisions • The reverse is true as well • 2. The average cost per unit that comes out of the forecasts is not the marginal cost of producing an additional unit • It is likely that accepting an additional at below average cost will positively contribute to profitability • This is also because of the fixed/variable cost relationship

  22. Accounting – What Accounts Need to be Set Up? • Raw Materials • Accounts Payable • Work in Progress • Salaries and Wages Payable • Manufacturing Overhead • Other Accounts that role into Manufacturing Overhead; eg • Taxes Payable (on production facility) • Accumulated Depreciation (on production property and equipment) • We will trace through the Journal Entries for Job Order Costing

  23. Journal Entry – Material Purchases • Purchase Raw Materials • Debit Raw Materials • Credit Accounts Payable

  24. Journal Entry – Material Usage • Materials Requisition form executed • Work in Process • Manufacturing Overhead • Credit Raw Materials • Direct Materials (WIP) • Indirect Materials (MOH)

  25. Journal Entry – Labour Costs • Employee time ticket is executed – similar to materials • Work in Process • Manufacturing Overhead • Credit Salaries and Wages Payable • Direct Labour (WIP) • Indirect Labour (MOH)

  26. Journal Entry – Other Manufacturing Overhead Items • Other Manufacturing Overhead items • Debit Manufacturing Overhead • Credit relevant balance sheet accounts • Then, Debit WIP • Credit Manufacturing Overhead

  27. Journal Entry – Cost of Goods Manufactured • Completion of production • Debit Finished Goods • Credit WIP

  28. Journal Entry – Overhead Applied • Manufacturing Overhead can be “cleared” through to WIP (which eventually flows to FG and COGS), or directly to COGS • Debit WIP • Credit Overhead

  29. Journal Entry – Sales • Sale • Debit Accounts Receivable • Credit Sales • Debit COGS • Credit Finished Goods

  30. Journal Entry – Overhead Adjustment • Actual Manufacturing Overhead is known at the end of the period • Note: As much of this will have flown through from WIP to FG to COGS, it is simple and practical to adjust Manufacturing Overhead through COGS • Over-applied Overhead • Debit Overhead • Credit COGS (decrease it and increase profit) • Under-applied Overhead • Debit COGS (increase it and reduce profit) • Credit Overhead

  31. Journal Entry – Accounting for Nonmanufacturing Costs • Non Manufacturing Costs (Selling and Administration) • Debit Salaries Expense • Credit Salaries Payable • Debit Advertising Expense • Credit Accounts Payable • Debit other relevant expenses (examples?) • Credit cash, A/P or other

  32. May be more complex but . . . May be more accurate because it reflects differences across departments. Multiple Predetermined Overhead Rates To this point, we have assumed that there is a single predetermined overhead rate called a plantwide overhead rate. Large companies often use multiple predetermined overhead rates.
