  1. Chapter 27 Budgeting and Standard Cost Accounting

  2. Budgets • Definition: A financial plan for the future. • Budgets involve all financial areas of business. • It is just as important to plan future revenues as it is to plan future costs and expenses. • Similarly, it is essential to plan both cash receipts and cash payments. Chapter 27

  3. Standard Cost Accounting • Definition: A system in which manufacturing costs are budgeted at the start of a year and then compared with actual costs during the year. • The analysis of variances from standard costs allows management to constantly monitor the efficiency of the production process. Chapter 27

  4. Value of Budgeting • Any type of organization—a business, a school, a hospital, or a governmental unit—can benefit from budgeting. • Budgeting allows the organization to set clear financial goals. • Budgeting also provides a basis for judging the financial performance of the organization. Chapter 27

  5. Budgets • The types of budgets used by businesses vary somewhat according to the nature of their operations. Common types of budgets are: • Budgets for sales, purchases, operating expenses, and cost of goods sold. • Budgets for cash and capital expenditures. • Budgets for production, materials, labor, overhead, and cost of goods manufactured. Chapter 27

  6. Budget Period • Businesses usually budget for the fiscal year. • However, a year’s budget is often broken down into quarterly or monthly segments. • This practice makes it possible for management to monitor progress during the year and take corrective action if there are any problems in meeting goals. Chapter 27

  7. Income Statement Budgets • Many businesses prepare a series of budgets involving revenue, costs, and expenses. • These individual budgets allow the firm to produce a budgeted income statement for the next fiscal year. Chapter 27

  8. Sales Budget • The first of the income statement budgets to be prepared. • An estimate of the total dollar amount of the sales revenue for the next fiscal year. • To prepare a sales budget, management must forecast the number of units of each product that will be sold and the selling price. Chapter 27

  19. Direct Labor Cost Budget • Provides an estimate of the cost of the direct labor that must be used in the next fiscal year. • Can be based on an estimated direct labor cost for each unit or an estimated number of direct labor hours for each unit. Chapter 27

  20. Direct Labor Cost Budget • Tech Cameras estimates its direct labor cost at $350 per unit. Thus, its direct labor cost budget for the next fiscal year is as follows. Chapter 27

  21. Direct Labor Cost Budget • Direct Labor Cost Budget • 20X3 • Estimated direct labor cost per unit $ 350 • Projected production (units)  700 • Projected direct labor cost $245,000 Chapter 27

  22. Factory Overhead Budget • Provides an estimate of the factory overhead cost that will be incurred in the next fiscal year. • Can be based on a predetermined overhead rate, which is usually a percentage of the estimated direct labor cost. • Can also be prepared by estimating the individual overhead items and then adding the projected amounts. Chapter 27

  23. Factory Overhead Budget • Tech Cameras estimates its factory overhead at 80% of the projected direct labor cost. Chapter 27

  24. Factory Overhead Budget • Factory Overhead Budget • 20X3 • Projected direct labor cost $245,000 • Predetermined overhead rate  .80 • Projected factory overhead $196,000 Chapter 27

  25. Cost of Goods Manufactured Budget • Brings together the projected amounts for direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead from the other manufacturing budgets. • The three amounts are added to find the estimated cost of goods manufactured for the next fiscal year. Chapter 27

  36. Balance Sheet Budgets • The budgeted income statement and its supporting projections are one part of a firm’s budgeting activities. • Another part of budgeting activities is the preparation of balance sheet budgets. • The most widely used balance sheet budgets are the cash budget and the capital expenditures budget. Chapter 27

  37. Cash Budget • Provides a month-by-month breakdown of expected cash receipts and payments during the fiscal year. • An important tool for managing short-term cash needs. Chapter 27

  38. Capital Expenditures Budget • Shows planned outlays for plant assets over a period of several years, such as five years. • Provides a long-term plan for acquiring the plant assets needed for a firm’s operations. Chapter 27

  39. Flexible Budget • Sometimes changes in the level of production occur after the budget period begins. • To deal with this situation in advance, many firms prepare a flexible budget. Chapter 27

  40. Flexible Budget • The flexible budget provides estimates for several levels of production. • Example: • A flexible budget might include estimates for 8,000 units, 9,000 units, and 10,000 units. Chapter 27

  41. Variable and Fixed Costs • To prepare a flexible budget, it is necessary to classify costs as variable or fixed. Chapter 27

  42. Variable Cost • Definition: Cost that changes in response to a change in the level of production. • Examples: • direct materials and direct labor • Variable costs vary in total with changes in production level, but they remain constant on a per-unit basis. Chapter 27

  43. Variable CostExample • The Wilson Company has a cost of $52 per unit for direct materials. • If the firm produces 4,000 units, the total cost of direct materials is $208,000 ($52  4,000). • If the firm produces 5,000 units, the total cost of direct materials is $260,000 ($52  5,000). Chapter 27

  44. Fixed Cost • Definition: Cost that does not change if the level of production changes. • Example: • Rent and depreciation • Fixed costs remain constant in total no matter what the production level, but they vary on a per-unit basis. Chapter 27

  45. Fixed CostExample • The Wilson Company has total fixed factory overhead of $120,000. • If the firm produces 4,000 units, the per-unit cost of fixed factory overhead is $30 ($120,000  4,000). • If the firm produces 5,000 units, the per-unit cost of fixed factory overhead is $24 ($120,000  5,000). Chapter 27

  46. Flexible Budget for Wilson CompanyCost of Goods Manufactured20X1 • 4,000 5,000 • Units Units • Direct materials: $52 per unit $208,000 $260,000 • Direct labor: $64 per unit 256,000 320,000 • Variable overhead: $40 per unit 160,000 200,000 • Fixed overhead 120,000 120,000 • Total cost $744,000 $900,000 • Per-unit cost $186.00 $180.00 Chapter 27

  47. Standard Cost Accounting • Can be used with either a job order system or a process system. • Budgeted (standard) costs are assigned to all products in advance. • When the products are manufactured, the actual and standard costs are compared. Chapter 27

  48. Favorable and Unfavorable Variances • Any difference between an actual cost and a budgeted (standard) cost is called a variance. • All variances must be analyzed. • If an actual cost exceeds a standard cost, the difference is an unfavorable variance. • If an actual cost is less than a standard cost, the difference is a favorable variance. Chapter 27

  49. Variance Analysis • Suppose the Wilson Company’s standard for direct materials is one set of materials at $52 for each unit produced. • In 20X1, the firm produced 5,000 units and used 5,300 sets of materials at a price of $50 per set. Chapter 27

  50. Variance Analysis • The quantity of the materials used was 300 sets above the standard. • The price of the materials used was $2 per unit below the standard. Chapter 27
