2 Part 1 Cost concepts for decision making (Topic 9.1) Identify sunk costs and explain why they are not relevant in decision making based on a general rule for distinguishing between relevant and irrelevant costs. (Level 1) Formulating longand short-term plans (Planning) Comparing actual to planned performance (Controlling) Decision Making Implementing plans (Directing and Motivating) Measuring performance (Controlling) Garrison, Noreen, Chesley, Carroll, Managerial Accounting, 6 th Canadian edition, 2004 p. 6 4 Part 1 Cost concepts for decision making (Topic 9.1) Short term decisions Adding and dropping product lines or segments Make or buy Special orders Utilization of a constrained resource Sell or process further P Part 1 Cost concepts for decision making (Topic 9.1) Short term decisions Adding and dropping product lines or segments Make or buy Special orders Utilization of a constrained resource Sell or process further elevant costs Irrelevant costs A cost that differs between alternatives. A cost that can be ignored in the analysis. p

3 Part 1 Cost concepts for decision making (Topic 9.1) Avoidable/differential cost Future costs that don t differ between alternatives Sunk cost Opportunity cost elevant Irrelevant Different costs for different purposes Whether a cost is relevant or irrelevant depends on the circumstances. p Part 1 Cost concepts for decision making (Topic 9.1) Avoidable/differential cost Future costs that don t differ between alternatives Sunk cost Opportunity cost elevant Irrelevant Can be eliminated in whole or in part by choosing one alternative over another. Department manager s salary if the department is eliminated. Savings in direct materials cost because of the purchase of a new machine. p Part 1 Cost concepts for decision making (Topic 9.1) Avoidable/differential cost Future costs that don t differ between alternatives Sunk cost Opportunity cost elevant Irrelevant Any cost in the future that will occur no matter which alternative is chosen Lease cost on the building which will continue to be used whether or not the new equipment is installed. Maintenance cost of existing equipment that will be kept whether or not the new product line is manufactured. p

4 Part 1 Cost concepts for decision making (Topic 9.1) Avoidable/differential cost Future costs that don t differ between alternatives Sunk cost Opportunity cost elevant Irrelevant Any cost that has already been incurred and cannot be changed Money that a corporation spent last year to investigate the site for a new office, expensed those funds and now is deciding whether or not to go forward with the project. Book value of old equipment that cannot be resold. p Part 1 Cost concepts for decision making (Topic 9.1) Avoidable/differential cost Future costs that don t differ between alternatives Sunk cost Opportunity cost elevant Irrelevant The potential benefit foregone when one alternative is chosen over another evenue lost because the retail outlet closes early on the weekends. Potential loss of investment income due to stockpiling inventory. Seldom recognized on financial reports. p MA1 MODULE 9 Part 2 Adding and dropping product lines Topic

10 Part 3 The make or buy decision (Topic 9.3) Explain what is meant by a make or buy decision and prepare a make or buy analysis. (Level 1) Vertical integration: When a company is involved in the production of more than one or more steps in the production and distribution of the product. (value chain) Make or buy decision: Decision as to whether a product should be made internally or purchased from an outside supplier. Common steps in an organization s value chain. Product Customer &D Design Manufacturing Marketing Distribution Service McGraw-Hill yerson Limited., 2009 p Part 3 The make or buy decision (Topic 9.3) Advantages of integration: Less dependence on suppliers. Smoother flow of parts and materials. More control over quality. Disadvantages of integration Suppliers may be able to benefit from economies of scale resulting in higher quality and lower cost. Contact with suppliers may be necessary if there is an emergency and parts cannot be produced in-house.

15 Part 4 Utilization of a constrained resource (Topic 9.6) Determine the most profitable utilization of scarce resources. (Level 1) Constraint A limitation under which a company must operate that restricts its ability to satisfy demand. i.e. a machine already operating 24/7 cannot produce any more units. When this constraint is narrowly focused it s called a bottleneck. How can a company maximize its profits under these conditions? Focus on maximizing total contribution margin. p Part 4 Utilization of a constrained resource (Topic 9.6) Banner Company Exercise 12-5 page 598 requirement 1 Product A B C Selling price $60 $90 $80 Less variable costs: Direct materials Direct labour Variable manufacturing OH Total variable cost Contribution margin $18 $36 $20 Maximize contribution margin when there is a constraint on direct labour: 3,000 hours at $8 per hour Stop the audio, turn to exercise 12-5, page 598 and the handout, page 4, then come back to listen to the solution. p Part 4 Utilization of a constrained resource (Topic 9.6) Banner Company Exercise 12-5 page 598 requirement 1 Product A B C Selling price $60 $90 $80 Less variable costs: Direct materials Direct labour Variable manufacturing OH Total variable cost Contribution margin $18 $36 $20 Amount of direct labour hours required Direct labour cost per unit/$8 Product A: $12/$8=1.5 hours Product B: $32/$8=4.0 hours Product C: $16$/8=2.0 hours p

Add more hours by paying overtime. Add another machine. Subcontract bottleneck processing. Move shift workers from a non-bottleneck process. Perform business process reengineering or total quality management techniques on the bottleneck process. educe defective units. How much would you be willing to pay to relax a constraint? Not more than the additional contribution margin will generate. p
