16. Distinguish direct costs from indirect costs. Objective 3

17. Cost Objects, Direct Costs,and Indirect Costs • Cost objectsare anything for which a separate measurement of costs is desired. • Cost drivers are any factors that affect cost.

18. Cost Objects, Direct Costs,and Indirect Costs • What are examples of cost objects? • individual products • alternative marketing strategies • geographic segments of the business • departments

19. Cost Objects, Direct Costs,and Indirect Costs • What are direct costs? • Direct costs are those costs that can be specifically traced to the cost object. • What are indirect costs? • Indirect costs are costs that cannot be specifically traced to the cost object.

20. Distinguish among full product costs, inventoriable product costs, and period costs. Objective 4

21. Product Costs • What are product costs? • They are the costs to produce (or purchase) tangible products intended for sale.

22. Product Costs • There are two types of product costs: Inventoriable product costs Full product costs

23. External Reporting Period costs Inventoriable product costs

24. Inventoriable Product Costs • For external reporting, merchandisers’inventoriable product costs include only costs that are incurred in the purchase of goods. • Inventoriable costs are an asset. • Period costs flow as expenses directly to the income statement.

25. Inventoriable Product Costs • For external reporting, manufacturers’inventoriable product costs include raw materials plus all other costs incurred in the manufacturing process. • Inventoriable product costs are incurred only in the third element of the value chain. • Costs incurred in other elements of the value chain are period costs.

26. Inventoriable Product Costs Direct Materials Direct Labor Indirect Labor Indirect Materials Other Manufacturing Overhead

27. Inventoriable Product Costs Direct Materials Direct Labor Prime Costs = Direct Materials + Direct Labor

28. Inventoriable Product Costs Direct Labor Indirect Labor Indirect Materials Other Conversion Costs = Direct Labor + Manufacturing Overhead

29. Prepare the financial statements of a manufacturing company. Objective 5

30. Financial Statements forService Companies • There is no inventory and thus no inventoriable costs. • The income statement does not include cost of goods sold. Revenues – Expenses = Operating income

31. Financial Statements for Merchandising Companies BALANCE SHEET INCOME STATEMENT Inventoriable Costs Sales Revenue deduct when sales occur Purchases of Inventory plus Freight-In Inventory Cost of Goods Sold equals Gross Margin deduct Operating Expenses Period Costs equals Operating Income

32. Financial Statements forManufacturing Companies BALANCE SHEET INCOME STATEMENT Inventoriable Costs Sales Revenue Materials Inventory deduct when sales occur Finished Goods Inventory Cost of Goods Sold equals Gross Margin deduct Work in Process Inventory Operating Expenses Period Costs equals Operating Income

33. Manufacturing Company Example • Kendall Manufacturing Company: • Beginning and ending work-in-process inventories were $20,000 and $18,000. • Direct materials used were $70,000. • Direct labor was $100,000. • Manufacturing overhead incurred was $150,000.

34. Manufacturing Company Example • What is the cost of goods manufactured? Beginning work in process $ 20,000 Direct labor $100,000 Direct materials 70,000 Mfg. overhead 150,000 320,000 Ending work in process (18,000) Cost of goods manufactured $322,000

35. Manufacturing Company Example • Kendall Manufacturing Company’s beginning finished goods inventory was $60,000 and its ending finished goods inventory was $55,000. • How much is the cost of goods sold?

36. Manufacturing Company Example Beg. finished goods inventory $ 60,000 + Cost of goods manufactured 322,000 = Cost of goods available for sale $382,000 – Ending finished goods 55,000 = Cost of goods sold $327,000

37. Manufacturing Company Example • Kendall Manufacturing Company had sales of $627,000 for the period. • How much is the gross margin? Sales $627,000 – Cost of goods sold 327,000 = Gross margin $300,000

38. Manufacturing Company Example • Kendall Manufacturing Company had operating expenses as follows: • $80,000 Sales salaries 10,000 Delivery expense 30,000 Administrative expenses $120,000 Total • What is Kendall’s operating income?

39. Manufacturing Company Example Gross margin $300,000 – Operating expenses 120,000 = Operating income $180,000

40. Direct Materials Inventory Beginning inventory Purchases and freight-in Direct materials available for use Ending inventory Direct materials used Work in Process Inventory Beginning inventory Direct materials used Direct labor Manufacturing overhead Total manufacturing costs to account for Ending inventory Cost of goods manufactured Flow of Costs through a Manufacturer’s Accounts

41. Flow of Costs through a Manufacturer’s Accounts • Finished Goods Inventory • Beginning inventory • Cost of goods manufactured • Cost of goods available for sale • Ending inventory • Cost of goods sold
