1 MARGINAL COST OR VARIABLE COST OR DIRECT COST Marginal cost is the variable cost of one more unit of a product or service. As such, it arises from additional increments of output. Marginal costing considers only variable cost ( those costs of production that vary with output) in calculating the cost of the product while fixed costs are charged against the revenue (sales) of the product. Thus, Marginal cost or variable cost = Prime cost (Direct Materials + Direct Labour + Direct expenses )+ Total Variable Overheads Or Marginal Cost or variable cost = Total cost - Fixed Cost
2 MARGINAL COST OR VARIABLE COST OR DIRECT COST Thus, here variable costs are treated as product cost and fixed costs are not treated as product cost. Fixed manufacturing cost are part of part of period cost.
3 MARGINAL or VARIABLE or DIRECT COSTING The revenue arising from the sales over variable costs is technically known as Contribution under marginal costing. Marginal costing is considered superior to absorption costing so far as managerial decision making is considered. It identifies only such costs with the jobs or products which directly vary with the level of output. Consequently the cost of goods in inventory or cost of goods sold under this method does not contain any fixed overhead cost. Thus the uncertainty and irrationality associated with apportionment of fixed cost in traditional costing is thus avoided.
4 MARGINAL COST contd. A factory produces 500 bicycles per annum. The variable cost per by cycle is US$ 100. the fixed expenses are US$ 0per annum. The cost sheet of bicycle will appear as follows: US $ Variable cost (500 X US$ 100) Fixed cost If production is increased by one unit i.e. if it becomes 501 bicycles per annum, the cost sheet will appear as follows : US $ Variable cost (501 X US$ 100) Fixed cost The marginal cost is therefore US$
5 DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ABSORPTION COSTING AND VARIABLE (MARGINAL COSTING) Recovery of Overheads: In case of absorption costing, both fixed and variable overheads are charged to production while in case of marginal costing only variable overheads are charged to production. Valuation of stocks: Absorption costing of stocks of work-in-progress and finished goods are valued at work cost and total cost of production respectively. Work cost and cost of production is defined to include fixed overheads too. While in marginal costing, only variable costs are considered while computing the value of work-in-progress or finished goods. Thus, closing stock is undervalued in marginal costing as compared to absorption costing.
6 DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ABSORPTION COSTING AND VARIABLE (MARGINAL COSTING)
7 CONTRIBUTION and PROFIT Contribution is the difference between selling price and variable cost. It is sum of fixed cost and profit. Contribution or Gross Margin = Selling Price (total revenue) (marginal cost) Contribution= Contribution= (Variable cost + Fixed cost + Profit) variable cost Fixed cost + Profit Variable Cost Or, Profit = Contribution Fixed cost Or, Fixed cost = Contribution profit
8 CONTRIBUTION or GROSS MARGIN contd. Let us take an example. Variable cost 5000 Fixed cost Selling Price 8000 Contribution = Selling price variable cost = = Profit = Contribution fixed cost = 2000 = As contribution exceeds fixed cost, there is a profit of.. If fixed cost is assumed as 4000, the position will change as: Contribution fixed cost = Profit (loss) = 4000 = Negative The sum of represents the extent of loss since the fixed costs are more than the contribution. At the level of foxed cost of, there shall be no profit and no loss. The concept of break-even analysis arises out of this basic fact.
9 Example 1: Tripura Ltd is manufacturing three product : A, B, C. the cost of manufacture are as follows Direct Material per unit A B C Direct labour per unit Selling price per unit Output units units units The total overhead costs are out of which are fixed and the rests are variable. It is decided to apportion these costs over different products in the ratio of output. From the above data, prepare a statement of cost and profit according to Marginal Costing.
10 Example 1: solution Statement showing Profit And Cost (Marginal Costing ) Product A Product _B Product C Per unit Total Per unit Total Per unit Total Direct material Direct labour Variable Overheads Total Marginal Cost Contribution (Sales MC) Selling price
11 Example 1: solution contd. Total profit under marginal costing would be: Total Contribution. Product A 4000 Product B 7000 Product C 0 2 Less: Fixed Cost Product A Product B Product C 9000 Profit 12000
12 Example 2: Tripura Ltd is manufacturing three product : A, B, C. the cost of manufacture are as follows A B C Direct Material per unit Direct labour per unit Selling price per unit Output units units units The total overhead costs are out of which are fixed and the rests are variable. It is decided to apportion these costs over different products in the ratio of output. Prepare a statement showing the cost and profit of each product according to marginal costing. Calculate amount of profit and profit and loss made by Tripura Ltd in the first two years of its existence, presuming that i. In the first year, it manufactures units of each product A, B, C but fails to effect any sales. ii. In the second year, it does not produce anything but sells the entire stock carried forward from the first year. iii. What fallacious conclusions can be drawn from the results.
13 Solution : Example2 Direct material A B C Direct labour A B C Overhead: variables A B C Fixed Tripura Limited Profit and loss Account of 1 st Year (as per marginal costing) _ _ Sales Closing Stock Loss _
14 Solution : Example 2 contd. Opening Stock Fixed overhead Profit Tripura Limited Profit and loss Account of 2 nd Year (as per marginal costing) Sales A B C _ _ The above Profit and Loss accounts shows that the company suffered a loss of.9000 in the first year because of non-recovery of fixed overheads while in the second year it makes a profit of It may be seen from the profit and loss account that the fixed cost of one year has been carried forward to the next year. Thus, the profit and loss account gives the correct picture according to marginal costing.
15 Example 3: Tripura Ltd is manufacturing three product : A, B, C. the cost of manufacture are as follows Direct Material per unit A B C Direct labour per unit Selling price per unit Output units units units The total overhead costs are out of which are fixed and the rests are variable. It is decided to apportion these costs over different products in the ratio of output. From the above data, prepare a statement of cost and profit according to Marginal Costing. Compute the amount of profit under absorption costing and marginal costing in case units of goods sold of products A, B, C are 900 each.
16 Example 3: solution Direct material Direct labour Variable Overheads Total Marginal (variable) Cost Add: Fixed Overheads Total cost of production Less: Closing Stock Cost of goods sold Profit (sales cost of goods sold) Statement showing Profit And Cost (Absorption Costing ) Product A Product _B Product C Total Total Total Sales
17 Example 3: solution contd. Total profit under absorption costing is Total Profit. Product A 900 Product B 3600 Product C
18 Example 3: solution Statement showing Profit And Cost (Marginal Costing ) Product A Product _B Product C Total Total Total Direct material Direct labour Variable Overheads Total Marginal Cost Less: Closing Stock Cost of goods sold Contribution (Sales MC) Sales
19 Example 3: solution contd. Total profit under marginal costing would be: Total Contribution. Product A 3600 Product B 6300 Product C Less: Fixed Cost Product A Product B Product C 9000 Profit. 9900
