Explain the role of be the resource usage model able to: in understanding cost behavior. 3. Separate mixed costs into their fixed and variable components using the high-low method, the scatterplot method, and the method of least squares. continued
3 3-3 Objectives 4. Evaluate the reliability of a cost equation. 5. Discuss the role of multiple regression in assessing cost behavior. 6. Describe the use of managerial judgment in determining cost behavior.
4 Examples of Variable, Fixed, and Mixed Costs 3-4
5 3-5
6 3-6 A cost that stays the same as output changes is is a fixed cost. Fixed Costs
7 3-7 Fixed Costs Cutting machines are leased for $60,000 per year and have the capacity to produce up to 240,000 units a year.
8 Total Fixed Cost Graph 3-8 Total Costs $120,000 $100,000 $80,000 $60,000 $40,000 $20,000 F = $60, Units Produced (000) Fixed Costs Lease of Machines Number of Units Units Cost $60,000 0 N/A 60,000 60,000 $ , , , , , ,

10 A variable cost is is a cost that, in total, varies in direct proportion to changes in output Variable Cost
11 Variable Cost 3-11 As the cutting machines cut each unit, they use 0.1 kilowatt-hour at $2.00 per kilowatt hour. Thus, the cost of each unit is $0.20 ($2 x 0.1).
12 Total Variable Cost Graph 3-12 Total Costs $48,000 $36,000 Y v =.20x $24,000 $12, Units Produced (000) Variable Cost Cost of Power Number of Units Units Cost $ 0 0 $ 0 12,000 60, , , , , , ,
13 Unit Variable Cost Graph 3-13 Cost per Unit $0.40 $0.30 $0.20 $ Units Produced (000) Variable Cost Cost of Power Number of Units Units Cost $ 0 0 $ 0 12,000 60, , , , , , ,
14 Extent of Variable Costs 3-14 The proportion of variable costs differs across organizations. For example... A public utility with large investments in equipment will tend to have fewer variable costs. A service company will normally have a high proportion of variable costs. A manufacturing company will often have many variable costs. A merchandising company usually will have a high proportion of variable costs like cost of sales.
15 Examples of Variable Costs 1. Merchandising companies cost of goods sold. 2. Manufacturing companies direct materials, direct labor, and variable overhead. 3. Merchandising and manufacturing companies commissions, shipping costs, and clerical costs such as invoicing. 4. Service companies supplies, travel, and clerical.

16 True Variable Cost Direct materials is a true or proportionately variable cost because the amount used during a period will vary in direct proportion to the level of production activity. Cost McGraw-Hill/Irwin Volume Copyright 2006, The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.
17 Step-Variable Costs A resource that is obtainable only in large chunks (such as maintenance workers) and whose costs increase or decrease only in response to fairly wide changes in activity is known as a step-variable cost. Cost McGraw-Hill/Irwin Volume Copyright 2006, The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.
18 Step-Variable Costs Small changes in the level of production are not likely to have any effect on the number of maintenance workers employed. Cost McGraw-Hill/Irwin Volume Copyright 2006, The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.
19 Step-Variable Costs Only fairly wide changes in the activity level will cause a change in the number of maintenance workers employed Cost McGraw-Hill/Irwin Volume Copyright 2006, The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.

22 A mixed cost is is a cost that has both a fixed and a variable component. 3-22
23 Sales representatives often are paid a salary plus a commission on sales. 3-23
24 Mixed Cost Behavior 3-24 Total Costs $130,000 $110,000 $90,000 $70,000 $50,000 $30, Units Sold (000) Inserts Sold Variable Cost of Selling Fixed Cost of Selling Total Selling Cost Selling Cost per Unit 40,000 $ 20,000 $30,000 $ 50,000 $ ,000 40,000 30,000 70, ,000 60,000 30,000 90, ,000 80,000 30, , , ,000 30, ,
25 Activity Cost Behavior Model 3-25 Input: Materials Energy Labor Changes in Input Cost Capital Activities Cost Behavior Activity Output Changes in Output
26 3-26 Flexible resources are resources acquired as as used and needed. Materials and energy are examples.
27 3-27 Committed resources are supplied in in advance of of usage. Buying or or leasing a building is is an example of of this form of of advance resource acquisition.
28 A step cost displays a constant level of cost for a range of output and then jumps to a higher level of cost at at some point Step-Cost Behavior
29 3-29 Step-Cost Behavior Cost $ Activity Output (units)
30 3-30 Step-Fixed Costs Cost $150, ,000 50,000 Normal Operating Range (Relevant Range) 2,500 5,000 7,500 Activity Usage
31 Step-Cost Behavior 3-31 Three engineers hired at $50,000 each Each engineer is capable of processing 2,500 change orders $90,000 was spent on supplies for the engineering activity There were 6,000 orders processed The company could process as many as 7,500 orders
32 Step-Cost Behavior 3-32 Available orders = Orders used + Orders unused 7,500 orders = 6,000 orders + 1,500 orders Fixed engineering rate = $150,000/7,500 = $20 per change order Variable engineering rate = $90,000/6,000 = $15 per change order
33 Step-Cost Behavior 3-33 The relationship between resources supplied and resources used is expressed by the following equation: Resources available = Resources used + Unused capacity
34 Step-Cost Behavior 3-34 Cost of orders supplied = Cost of orders used + Cost of unused orders = [($20 + $15) x 6,000] + ($20 x 1,500) = $240,000 The $30,000 of excess engineering capacity means that a new product could be introduced without increasing current spending on engineering. Equal to the $150,000 spent on engineers and the $90,000 spent on supplies.
35 3-35 Methods for Separating Mixed Costs The High-Low Method The Scatterplot Method The Method of Least Squares Variable Component Fixed Component
36 3-36 The linearity assumption assumes that variable costs increase in direct proportion to the number of units produced (or activity units used).
37 3-37 Methods for Separating Mixed Costs Y = a + bx Total Cost Total Fixed Variable Number of Cost Cost Units per Unit
38 3-38 The High-Low Method Month Setup Costs Setup Hours January $1, February 1, March 2, April 2, May 3, Step 1: 1: Solve for variable cost (b)
39 3-39 The High-Low Method Month Setup Costs Setup Hours January $1, February 1, March 2, April 2, May 3, b = High Cost Low Cost High Units Low Units
40 3-40 The High-Low Method Month Setup Costs Setup Hours January $1, February 1, March 2, April 2, May 3, b = High $3,750 Cost Low Cost High 500 Units Low Units
41 3-41 The High-Low Method Month Setup Costs Setup Hours January $1, February 1, March 2, April 2, May 3, b = $3,750 Low $1,000 Cost 500 Low 100 Units
42 The High-Low Method 3-42 b = $3,750 $1, b = $6.875 Step 2: 2: Using either the high cost or or low cost, solve for the total fixed cost (a).
43 3-43 The High-Low Method Y = a + b (x) $3,750 = a + $6.875(500) $ = a Y = a + b (x) $1,000 = a + $6.875(100) $ = a High End Low End The cost formula using the high-low method is: Total cost = $ ($6.875 x Setup hours)
