Volume & Profitability Profitability Analysis CO-PA Workshop 13/10/99
Workshop Overview • DELIVERABLES • This workshop will provide the user with basic knowledge about -- CO-PA module -- Assessment of costs • -- How to complete the affiliate input required • in completing affiliate specific assessment design • On-line demonstration; reports and cost assessment • SESSION SUCCESS FACTORS • Active Participation -- Questions & Answers during the course • 'Parking Lot' for very specific, difficult questions
Agenda 1. Underlying concept of CO-PA: • Report formats • Profitability methodology • Cost assessment principles 2. Brief explanation on how CO-PA fits in with other modules 3. Key aspects for how to perform CO-PA reporting (on-line demo) 4. Assessment cycles (on-line demo) 5. Guidelines regarding the OPEX transfer to CO-PA By the end of this session you will be asked to: 1. Define the rules for the transfer of OPEX to CO-PA 2. Deadline: November 30, 1999
CO-PA Terminology • Operating Concern • Highest profitability reporting level in SAP (1 by affiliate in Stripes) • Characteristic • Criteria on which the operating results are reported; Ex: LBU, Customer Group, Product hierarchy • Business Profitability Segments (Stripes) • Lowest level: Customer group (CG) and product hierarchy level 3 (PH3) • And any combination of the characteristics above lowest level • Value Field • Field in which the system stores values and quantities for profitability segments. Ex.: Rebates, Weight, Handling costs...
Stripes Terminology • LBU Total • Logical Business Units (LBUs) as defined by ECI provided that such business is relevant for the affiliate Also includes a certain numbers of pseudo-LBUs (Refining, Corporate Downstream, Segment Earnings and Financial Items) • LBU Local • Logical Business Units (LBUs) which are reportable to ECI by the relevant affiliate (e.g. ICR in ECE includes LPG, Asphalt & Marine) • Market • Defines Local Market Sales vs. Export Sales vs. Supply Sales vs. Affiliate Sales

SAP Terminology • Assessment cycles • Set of rules and criteria for allocating costs to profitability segments • Composed of segments • Segment • Contains the sender, the receiver and the rules to process the allocation • Sender and receiver are processed simultaneously using an assessment cost element • Tracing factor • Allocation criterion to distribute the costs from the sender to the receiver Ex: volume, gross margin, fixed percentage

OPEX allocation - 4 Cost categories • Costs are booked / allocated by LBU and CG in Cost Centre Accounting (CO-CCA). • The following groups of costs are combined in 4 assessment cycles and transported from CO-CCA to Profitability module: • DIRECT LBU OPEX: marketing costs booked directly to the relevant LBU cost centres and allocated down to Customer Group (CG) cost centres • ALLOCATED OPEX: all other costs not booked directly to the relevant LBU cost centres, (Ex.: Overheads) but allocated down to LBU and CG cost centres • HANDLING: costs associated with terminal & handling at plants and allocated to departmental overhead (marketing) cost centres • DELIVERY: costs associated with delivery from terminal to customer and booked to the relevant CG cost centres for Fuels. For Lubes these costs are kept at LBU level within CCA • Tracking costs by these groups in CO-PA provides the user with information on Direct Marketing OPEX within the LBU and CG, the associated overheads, as well as the handling and delivery OPEX.
Direct and allocated LBU OPEX - allocation criteria (1/3) • Within each Customer Group the DIRECT LBU OPEX and ALLOCATED OPEX are allocated to Product Hierarchy level 3 based on main Product Group (division) reflecting base business for the Customer Group within the LBU. Implications are: • Customer Group base business will carry ALL marketing and overhead costs while incremental business will not attract any costs • Costs associated with Lubes sales (if any) in all LBUs except Lubes and Retail Lubes are not allocated to Lubes. • If not incremental, customer group costs will first be split by division and then allocated down to PH3 • Retail CG costs will be split by mofuel and shop: affiliate provides %-split. Memo Division (Product Group):Fuels, LPG, Lubes, Aviation Fuels, Marine Fuels, Crude, Feedstock, Non-Products (e.g. rents and fees, shop products, thruput fees, royalties), Asphalt and Other Products (e.g. chemicals, naphtha)
Direct and allocated LBU OPEX - allocation criteria (2/3) • Direct and Allocated OPEX allocation criteria differs depending on product type: Petroleum Products ex. Lubes: • Volumes within the relevant Customer Group and main Division • basis will initially be current period actual volumes. Once history builds and basis for developing volume plans by CG is established, then the affiliates shall move to cost assessment based on current period seasonalized plan volumes which is in line with Best Practice Lubes • Reference Gross Margin defined as Net Sales Realisation minus reference product and production costs • information coming from billing by business profitability segment
Direct and allocated LBU OPEX - allocation criteria (3/3) Non-Petroleum Products: • No allocations to Non-Petroleum products • this group includes miscellaneous items like rents/fees from service stations and terminals, margins on shop products, card system fees and 3rd party commissions • One exception • Exception is Retail Shop sales where profitability is shown for Shop by the PH3 categories (TBA, Food and Other non-food). If no allocation basis, then the default is to assess all costs to “Food”. Thus, profitability will be at Customer group and Product hierarchy 2 only.
Handling OPEX - allocation criteria MARKETING CONTROLLED PRODUCTS: Lubes, LPG, Asphalt and Aviation • Actual Handling costs are allocated down to the business segments based on reference Handling costs • Reconciliation between actual and reference costs available at all CO-PA reporting levels • Information coming from billing DISTRIBUTION CONTROLLED PRODUCTS: Fuels, Marine, Refinery Products,... • Actual Handling costs stay at LBU level and are offset from the transfer price to avoid double counting • Applies to all the drill-down reports on Customer Group and Product Hierarchy level 3 (CG/PH3) for Marketing, Retail and I&W where the line “Terminal Handling Allocated” will be empty for all drill-downs below LBU
Delivery OPEX - allocation criteria • Actual Delivery costs are allocated down to the profitability segments based on reference Delivery costs as available in the Sales Information System (SIS) • These costs are allocated based on the REAL delivery activities associated with each customer shipment • Information coming from Billing • CO-PA reports provide full reconciliation of delivery costs at all reporting levels
Allocations - Technically • Variable / fixed cycles • Variable: set of cycles using available allocation criteria/conditions • For ongoing business, this would normally ensure full allocation of costs • Fixed: set of cycles using fixed percentage tracing factors to empty the cost centres in case of Volumes/margin unavailability. • Assessment is defaulted to the predominant product for the customer group • Cycle = set of segments • One set of cycles by Operating Concern • One cycle by cost type: Direct LBU, Allocated, Handling, Delivery • One set of cycles by Tracing factor type: Variable, Fixed percentage => 8 cycles per Operating Concern
Allocations - Technically • Each segment contains: • Sender: Combination of Cost Centre and Cost elements • Receiver: Combination of characteristic values • Rules: sender, receiver and tracing factor • Excel spreadsheet (completed by Local Team) with every needed field is uploaded in the system (Central Team responsibility) ONLINE DEMO

Conclusion • CO-PA = multidimensional reporting tool • on Business profitability segments • down to LBU, Customer Group and Product hierarchy 3 • Profit defined as: • Net Margin (profit after OPEX) at profitability segments level • Operating Earnings A/T at LBU level • Net Income at total affiliate level • CO-PA interfaced with CO-CCA for OPEX transfer • assessment from LBU and CG in CCA down to PH3 in CO-PA • set of 8 cycles per Operating Concern • designed on Excel (LT) and uploaded in SAP (CT)
