Managerial Accounting
All costs that are not product costs are called period costs
and are recognized as expenses during the time period as
incurred.
1. Material
a. Direct Material
b. Indirect Material
The material which is used for purposes ancillary to
the business and which cannot be conveniently assigned to
specific physical units is termed as indirect material.
Consumable stores, oil and waste, printing and stationery
material etc. are some of the examples of indirect material.
2. Labor

COST ESTIMATION
Cost estimation is the determination of cost behavior in a
way of analyzing historical data concerning costs and activity
levels.

COST ESTIMATION

behaves.

COST-VOLUME-PROFIT ANALYSIS
Examines the behavior of total revenues, total costs, and
operating income as changes occur in the output level, selling
price, variable costs or fixed costs.
Assumptions of CVP Analysis:
revenues change in relation to production and sales
costs can be divided in variable and fixed categories
revenues and costs behave in a linear fashion
costs and prices are known
if more than one product exists, the sales mix is constant
we can ignore the time value of money
CONTRIBUTION MARGIN
Contribution margin is equal to the difference between total
revenue and total variable costs.

Point where operating income equals zero.

TARGET OPERATING INCOME
For most firms in the private sector, the main objective is not to breakeven
Convert after-tax desired net income to its before-tax equivalent operating income
SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS
sensitivity analysis is a “what-if” technique that examines
how a result will change if the original predicted data are
not achieved or if an underlying assumption changes
What will happen to operating income if volume declines by
5%?
What will happen to operating income if variable costs
increase by 10% per unit?
sensitivity analysis broadens management’s perspectives
about possible outcomes

quantities of products or services that make up total revenue.

RESPONSIBILITY ACCOUNTING
Controllability Concept
Managerial Accountant
Example:
Book Value of Equipment that has a three year old used
to transport product from production area to storage room. The
book value of the equipment defined as the asset’s acquisition
cost less the accumulated depreciation to date.
The new kind of equipment is much cheaper than the old and
cost less to operate. However, the new equipment would be
operable for only one year before it would need to be replaced.
The pertinent data of new equipment are:
Acquisition cost-----------------15,000.00
Useful life---------------------- 1 year
Salvage value after one year----- 0
Annual depreciation--------------15,000.00
Annual operating costs-----------45,000.00
ANALYTICAL TECHNIQUE:
Discounted-Cash-Flow Analysis
The managerial accountant or controller of Mountain
view Hotel routinely advises the mayor and city council on major
capital-investment decisions. Currently under consideration in
the purchase of a new street cleaner, the controller has
estimated that the city’s old street-cleaning machine would last
another five years. A new street cleaner, which also would last
for five years, can be purchased for $50,470. It would cost the
city $14,000 less each year to operate the new equipment than it
costs to operate the old machine. The expected cost savings with
the new machine are due to lower expected maintenance costs.
Thus, the sew street cleaner will cost $50,470 and save $70,000
over its five-year life. ($70,000= 5 X $14,000 savings per year).
Since the $70,000 in cost savings exceeds the $50,470 acquisition
cost, one might be tempted to conclude that the new machine
should be purchased. However, this analysis is flawed, since it
does not account for the time value of money. The $50,470
acquisition cost will occur now, but the cost savings are spread
over a five years period. It is a mistake to add cash flows
occurring at different points in time.

Acquisition cost $(50,470)

Step 2 Present value of annuity=$14,000 (3.791)
Annuity discount factor for r=.10 n=5
Present value $(50,470) $53,074
Step 3 Net present value $2,604
Step 4 Accept proposal, since net present value is positive
INTERNAL-RATE-OF-RETURN METHOD
- It is an alternative discounted-cash-flow method for
analyzing investment proposals.
Internal rate of return or Time-adjusted rate of return
of an asset is the true economic return earned by the asset over
its life. An asset’s internal rate of return is the discount rate
that would be required in a net-present-value analysis in order
for the asset’s net present value to be exactly zero.
The higher the discount rate used in a net-present-
value analysis, the lower the present value of all future cash
flows will be.
where:
Example 1:
What is the IRR of an equal annual income of $20 per annum which
accrues for 7 years and costs $120?
= 6
Example 2:

2.) Cost saving during year------------------------- 14,000 14,000 14,000 14,000 14,000
Net-Present-Value:
1. Compute the investment proposal’s net present value
using the organization’s hurdle rate as the
discount rate.
2. Accept the investment proposal if its net present
value is equal to or greater than zero, otherwise
reject it.
Internal-Rate of Return:
1. Compute the investment proposal’s internal rate of
return which is the discount rate that yields a zero
net present value for the project.
2. Accept the investment proposal it its internal rate of
return is equal to or greater than the organization’s
hurdle rate, otherwise reject it.
PROFIT MAXIMIZATION
In economics, profit maximization is the process by which a
firm determines the price and output level that returns the
greatest profit. There are several approaches to this problem.
The total revenue -- total cost method relies on the fact that
profit equals revenue minus cost, and the marginal revenue --
marginal cost method is based on the fact that total profit in a
perfect market reaches its maximum point where marginal revenue
equals marginal cost.
