  2. Q1: Budgets, Strategies, & Operating Plans • A budget is • A formalized financial plan. • A translation of an organization’s strategies. • A method of communicating. • A way to define areas of responsibility and decision rights. • The budget cycle is the series of sequential steps followed to create and use budgets. Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  3. Q2: Master Budgets • A master budget is • A comprehensive plan for the upcoming accounting period. • Usually prepared for a one-year period. • Is based on a series of budget assumptions. • The master budget consists of several subsidiary budgets, in two categories: • Operating budgets. • Financial budgets. Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  4. Q2: Operating Budgets • Revenue budget • Production budget • Direct materials budget • Direct labor budget • Manufacturing overhead budget • Inventory and cost of goods sold budget • Support department budgets • Budgeted income statement The operating budget is created by preparing the following individual budgets, in this order: Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  5. Q2: Financial Budgets • Capital budget • Long-term financing budget • Cash budget • Budgeted balance sheet • Budgeted statement of cash flows The financial budget is created by preparing the following individual budgets, in this order: Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  6. Q2: Operating Budget Example Stanley J, Inc., makes a tool used by auto mechanics that sells for $68/unit. It expects to sell 6,000 units in April and 7,000 units in May. Stanley J prefers to end each period with a finished goods inventory equal to 10% of the next period’s sales in units and a direct materials inventory equal to 20% of the direct materials required for the next period’s production. The company never has any beginning or ending work-in-process inventories. There were 400 units in finished goods inventory on April 1. Prepare the revenue and production budgets for April. Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  7. Q2: Operating Budget Example Stanley J’s product uses 0.3 pounds of direct material per unit, at a cost of $4/lb. There were 220 lbs. of direct material on hand on April 1. Assume that budgeted production for May is 6,500 units. Prepare the direct materials budget for April. Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  8. Q2: Operating Budget Example Stanley J’s product uses 0.2 hours of direct labor at a cost of $12/hr. Prepare the direct labor budget for April. Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  9. Q2: Operating Budget Example Stanley J’s budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead for April is $167,000, and variable manufacturing overhead is budgeted at $6 per direct labor hour. Prepare the manufacturing overhead budget for April. Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  10. Q2: Operating Budget Example Assume that Stanley J’s April 1 direct materials inventory had a cost of $1,560. Prepare the April ending inventories budget for direct materials. Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  11. Q2: Operating Budget Example Prepare the April ending inventories budget for finished goods. Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  12. Q2: Operating Budget Example Assume that Stanley J’s April 1 finished goods inventory had a cost of $12,146. Prepare the cost of goods sold budget for April. Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  13. Q2: Operating Budget Example Stanley J’s budget for April includes $22,000 for administrative costs, $34,000 for fixed distribution costs, $18,000 for research and development, and $13,000 for fixed marketing costs. Additionally, the budgeted variable costs for distribution are $0.75/unit sold and the budgeted variable costs for marketing are 4% of sales revenue. Prepare the support department budget for April. Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  14. Q2: Operating Budget Example Suppose that Stanley J’s income tax rate is 28%. Prepare the budgeted income statement for April. Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  15. Q3: Budget Variances • Managers compare actual results to budgeted results in order to • Monitor operations, and • Motivate appropriate performance. • Differences between budgeted and actual results are called budget variances. • Variances are stated in absolute value terms, and labeled as Favorable or Unfavorable. Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  16. Q3: Budget Variances • Reasons for budget variances are investigated. • The investigation may find: • Inefficiencies in actual operations that can be corrected. • Efficiencies in actual operations that can be replicated in other areas of the organization. • Uncontrollable outside factors that require changes to the budgeting process. Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  17. Q4: Static Budgets • A budget prepared for a single level of sales volume is called a static budget. • Static budgets are prepared at the beginning of the year. • Differences between actual results and the static budget are called static budget variances. Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  18. Q4: Flexible Budgets • A budget prepared for a multiple levels of sales volume is called a flexible budget. • Flexible budgets are prepared at the beginning of the year for planning purposes and at the end of the year for performance evaluation. • Differences between actual results and the flexible budget are called flexible budget variances. Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  19. Q3,4: Flexible Budget Example Tina’s Trinkets is preparing a budget for 2006. The budgeted selling price per unit is $10, and total fixed costs for 2006 are estimated to be $5,000. Variable costs are budgeted at $3/unit. Prepare a flexible budget for the volume levels 1,000, 1,100, and 1,200 units. Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  20. Q5: Static Budget Variances Example Suppose that Tina’s 2006 static budget was for 1,100 units of sales. The actual results are given below. Compute the static budget variances for each row and discuss. Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  21. Q5: Flexible Budget Variances Example Compute the flexible budget variances for Tina and discuss the results. Compare the flexible budget variances to the static budget variances on the prior page. Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  22. Q5: Performance Evaluation • A static budget variance includes effects from output volume. • A flexible budget variance removes these output volume effects. • Other adjustments to the year-end flexible budget may be made for a fair performance evaluation, such as • Input price changes outside the control of the manager under evaluation • Fixed cost increases outside the control of the manager under evaluation Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  23. Q6: Other Budgeting Approaches • Rolling budgets are prepared frequently for overlapping time periods and actual results may be used to update the budget for the next period. • Activity based budgets use more cost pools and cost drivers. • Kaizen budgets plan cost reductions over time. • Extreme programming can be used to budget long-term projects that contain a large amount of uncertainty. • Often used for information technology projects • Projects begin with little up-front planning Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  24. Q7: Cash Budgets • Cash budgets are prepared after the operating budgets. • The cash budgets include the following individual budgets: • Cash receipts budget • Cash disbursements budget • Short-term borrowings and investments budget Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  25. Q7: Cash Budget Example Bryce Manufacturing is preparing a cash budget for a new division that will begin operations on January 1, 2006. Bryce expects sales to be 40% cash and 60% on account, with 45% of credit sales are collected in the month of the sale. In the month after the sale, 50% of credit sales should be collected, with the remainder collected two months after the sale. Budgeted sales for the first three months are $100,000, $150,000 and $200,000. Prepare a cash receipts budget for the first three months of 2006. Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  26. Q7: Cash Budget Example Bryce Manufacturing budgets direct labor costs to be 30% of sales revenue and expects to pay this in the month the costs are incurred. Direct materials purchases will be on account, and paid as follows: 40% in the month of the purchase, 50% the following month, and 10% in the second month following the purchase. Budgeted direct material purchases for the first 3 months of 2006 are $20,000, $35,000 and $45,000. Compute the budgeted cash disbursements for direct materials and labor for the first 3 months of 2006. Chapter 10: Static and Flexible Budgets Eldenburg & Wolcott’s Cost Management, 1e

  27. Q7: Cash Budget Example Bryce Manufacturing budgets other variable costs at 4% of sales revenue and will be paid in the month after the costs are incurred. Other budgeted fixed costs are $6,000 per month and will be paid in the month incurred. Prepare a cash disbursements budget for all costs, including direct materials and labor.
