Direct costs Can be easily and conveniently traced to a unit of product or other cost objective. Would not be incurred if the product or activity were discontinued. Indirect costs Cannot be easily and conveniently traced to a unit of product or other cost object. Would be incurred even if the product or activity were discontinued. Direct Costs and Indirect Costs
Costs for Cost Accounting Purposes Financial Accounting Cost is a measure of resources used or given up to achieve a stated purpose. Managerial Accounting Costs are assigned to products and become expenses when products are sold.
Manufacturers . . . Buy raw materials. Produce and sell finished goods. Merchandisers . . . Buy finished goods. Sell finished goods. Costs for Cost Accounting Purposes MegaLoMart

RawMaterials DirectLabor ManufacturingOverhead Costs for Cost Accounting Purposes The Product
Costs for Cost Accounting Purposes Raw materials are theingredients of the product. Example:A radio installed in an automobile
Costs for Cost Accounting Purposes Direct labor is the effort provided by workers who are directly involved withthe manufacture of the product. Example:Wages paid to automobile assembly workers
Costs for Cost Accounting Purposes Manufacturing overhead includes all manufacturing costs except raw materialand direct labor. • Examples • Wages of maintenance workers, janitors,security guards. • Factory utilities, property taxes, and insurance. • Depreciation for factory buildings and equipment. • Production supervision salaries.

Estimated total manufacturingoverhead cost for the coming period POHR = Estimated total units in theallocation base for the coming period Cost Accounting Systems The predetermined overhead rate (POHR) used to apply overhead to jobs is determined before the period begins. Ideally, the allocation base is a cost driver that causes overhead.
Cost Accounting Systems Based onestimates, and determined before the period begins. Overhead applied = POHR × Actual activity Actualamount of thecost driversuch as units produced, direct labor hours, or machine hours. Incurred during the period.
Cost Accounting Systems Cruisers, Inc., applies overhead based on direct labor hours. Total estimatedoverhead for the year is $4,200,000. Totalestimatedlabor hours are 300,000.What is Cruisers’ predeterminedoverhead rate?
Estimated total manufacturingoverhead cost for the coming period POHR = Estimated total units in theallocation base for the coming period $4,200,000 POHR = 300,000 direct labor hours (DLH) Cost Accounting Systems POHR = $14.00 per DLH For each direct labor hour worked on a job, $14.00 of factory overhead will be applied to the job.
Cost Accounting Systems Cruisers, Inc., produced 86 SeaCruiser sailboats during the month working a total of 20,640 labor hours and incurring these costs: raw materials $368,510; and direct labor $330,240.What is the cost per SeaCruiser sailboat?
What will Cruisers do if actual and applied overhead are not equal? Cost Accounting Systems
Cost Accounting Systems Cruisers’ actual overhead for the year was $4,250,000 for a total of 310,000 direct labor hours. How much total overhead was applied to Cruisers’ jobs during the year? Use Cruisers’ predetermined overhead rate of $14.00 per direct labor hour.
Cost Accounting Systems Cruisers’ actual overhead for the year was $4,250,000 for a total of 310,000 direct labor hours. How much total overhead was applied to Cruisers’ jobs during the year? Use Cruisers’ predetermined overhead rate of $14.00 per direct labor hour. SOLUTION Applied Overhead = POHR × Actual Direct Labor Hours Applied Overhead = $14.00 per DLH × 310,000 DLH =$4,340,000
Cost Accounting Systems Cruisers’ actual overhead for the year was $4,250,000 for a total of 310,000 direct labor hours. How much total overhead was applied to Cruisers’ jobs during the year? Use Cruisers’ predetermined overhead rate of $14.00 per direct labor hour. Overhead isoverapplied for the year by$90,000. What willCruisers do? SOLUTION Applied Overhead = POHR × Actual Direct Labor Hours Applied Overhead = $14.00 per DLH × 310,000 DLH =$4,340,000

Let’s examine the cost flows in a product costing system. We will use T-accounts and start withmaterials. Cost Accounting Systems
Cost Accounting Systems Work in Process Raw Materials • Direct Materials • Direct Materials • Material Purchases • Indirect Materials Mfg. Overhead Actual Applied • Indirect Materials
Next let’s addlabor costs andapplied manufacturing overhead to the cost flows. Are you with me? Cost Accounting Systems

Overhead Actual Applied If actual and applied manufacturing overheadare not equal, a year-end adjustment is required. • Indirect Materials • OverheadApplied to Work inProcess • IndirectLabor
Now let’s complete the goods and sell them. Still with me? Cost Accounting Systems

Cost Accounting Systems A schedule of cost of goods manufacturedis prepared to assist managers in understanding and evaluating the overall cost of manufacturing products.
Cost Accounting Systems Use the following informationto prepare a statement of costof goods manufactured for Cruisers, Inc. for April: Raw materials inventory: March 31 $126,900 April 30 $106,250 Raw materials purchases: April $347,860
Finished goodsinventory numbersare assumed amounts. The cost of goods manufactured during the period is used to compute cost of goods sold for the period.
The income statement is prepared using established financial accounting procedures. Sales andexpense numbersare assumed amounts.
Used for production of large, unique, high-cost items. • Built to order rather than mass produced. • Many costs can be directly traced to each job. Cost Accounting Systems ProcessCosting Job OrderCosting
Typical job order cost applications: • Special-order printing • Building construction • Also used in service industry • Hospitals • Law firms Cost Accounting Systems ProcessCosting Job OrderCosting
Used for production of small, identical, low-cost items. • Mass produced in automated continuous production process. • Costs cannot be directly traced to each unit of product. Cost Accounting Systems ProcessCosting Job OrderCosting

All manufacturingcosts must be assignedto products to properlymatch revenues andcosts. Fixed costs arenot really the costsof any particularproduct. VariableCosting AbsorptionCosting Absorption and Variable Costing
These are capacitycosts and will beincurred even if nothingis produced. Depreciation,taxes, insurance andsalaries are just asessential to productsas variable costs. VariableCosting AbsorptionCosting Absorption and Variable Costing
