Managerial accounting provides financial and nonfinancial information to an organization’s managers. Managers include, for example, employees in charge of a company’s divisions; the heads of marketing, information technology, and human resources; and top-level managers such as the chief executive officer (CEO) and chief financial officer (CFO). This section explains the purpose of managerial accounting (also called management accounting) and compares it with financial accounting.

Purpose of Managerial Accounting

Learning Objective C1: Explain the purpose and nature of, and the role of ethics in, managerial accounting.

Planning

Develop new products?

Expand into new markets?

Build a new factory?

Control

Are costs too high?

Are services profitable?

Are customers satisfied?

The purpose of managerial accounting is to provide useful information to aid in three key managerial tasks:

determining the costs of an organization’s products and services

planning future activities

comparing actual results to planned results

Planning is the process of setting goals and making plans to achieve them. Long-term strategic plans usually span a 5-10 year horizon.

Control is the process of monitoring planning decisions and evaluating an organization’s activities and employees. Feedback provided by the control function allows managers to revise their plans.

Fraud and Ethics in Managerial Accounting

Fraud affects all business and it is costly: The 2016 Report to the Nations from the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE) estimates the average U.S. business loses 5% of its annual revenues to fraud.

An internal control system is the policies and procedures used to:

Ensure reliable accounting

Protect assets

Uphold company policies

Promote efficient operations.

The Institute of Management Accountants has issued a code of ethics to help accountants involved in solving ethical dilemmas.

Fraud, and the role of ethics in reducing fraud, are important factors in running business operations. Fraud involves the use of one’s job for personal gain through the deliberate misuse of the employer’s assets. Examples include theft of the employer’s cash or other assets, overstating reimbursable expenses, payroll schemes, and financial statement fraud. Three factors must exist for a person to commit fraud: opportunity, financial pressure, and rationalization. This is known as the fraud triangle. Fraud affects all business and it is costly: The 2016 Report to the Nations from the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE) estimates the average U.S. business loses 5% of its annual revenues to fraud.

Combating fraud requires ethics in accounting. Ethics are beliefs that distinguish right from wrong. They are accepted standards of good and bad behavior. Identifying the ethical path can be difficult. The Institute of Management Accountants (IMA), the professional association for management accountants, has issued a code of ethics to help accountants in solve ethical dilemmas. The IMA’s Statement of Ethical Professional Practice requires that management accountants be competent, maintain confidentiality, act with integrity, and communicate information in a fair and credible manner.

‹#›

Career Paths

Managerial accounting information is used in many careers:

Marketing staff need sales and cost data to decide which products to promote.

Management needs sales force details to evaluate performance.

Entrepreneurs use costs, budgets, and financial statements.

Nonbusiness majors use accounting information as their careers advance.

Managerial accountants are highly regarded and in high demand. Managerial accountants must have strong communication skills, understand how businesses work, and be team players. They must also possess skills to analyze information and think critically, and they are often considered to be important business advisors.

Activity

Cost

Types of Cost Classifications Fixed versus Variable

Cost behavior refers to how a cost will changes, in total, with changes in the volume of activity.

Total fixed costs do not change when activity changes.

Total variable costs change in proportion to activity changes.

Learning Objective C2: Describe accounting concepts useful in classifying costs.

© McGraw-Hill Education

10

18 - ‹#›

Fixed versus Variable – A cost can be classified by how it changes, in total, with changes in the volume of activity. Fixed costs do not change with changes in the volume of activity (within a range of activity known as an activity’s relevant range). For example, straight-line depreciation on equipment is a fixed cost. Variable costs change in proportion to changes in the volume of activity. Sales commissions computed as a percent of sales revenue are variable costs.

‹#›

Direct costs

Costs traceable to a single cost object.

Examples: material and labor cost for a product.

Indirect costs

Costs that cannot be traced to a single cost object.

Example: maintenance expenditure benefiting two or more departments.

Types of Cost Classifications Direct versus Indirect

Learning Objective C2: Describe accounting concepts useful in classifying costs.

© McGraw-Hill Education

11

18 - ‹#›

A cost is often traced to a cost object, which is a product, process, department, or customer to which costs are assigned. Direct costs are traceable to a single cost object. Indirect costs cannot be easily and cost-beneficially traced to a single cost object.

Product

Types of Cost Classifications Product versus Period Costs

Direct Labor

Direct Material

Manufacturing Overhead

Period costs are expenses not attached to the product.

Administrative costs are non-manufacturing costs of staff support and administrative functions.

Selling costs are incurred to obtain orders and to deliver finished goods to customers.

Learning Objective C3: Define product and period costs and explain how they impact financial statements.

© McGraw-Hill Education

13

18 - ‹#›

All production (or factory) costs are product costs. Product costs are those production costs necessary to create a product and consist of: direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead. Overhead refers to production costs other than direct materials and direct labor. Product costs are capitalized as inventory during and after completion of the products; they become cost of goods sold when those products are sold.

Period costs are non-production costs and are usually more associated with activities linked to a time period than with completed products. Common examples of period costs include salaries of the sales staff, wages of maintenance workers, advertising expenses, and depreciation on office furniture and equipment. Period costs and are expensed in the period when incurred either as selling expenses or as general and administrative expenses.

‹#›

Period and Product Costs in Financial Statements

Learning Objective C3: Define product and period costs and explain how they impact financial statements.

Exhibit 14.7

© McGraw-Hill Education

14

18 - ‹#›

This slide shows the different effects of product and period costs. Period costs flow directly to the current income statement as expenses. They are not reported as assets. Product costs are first assigned to inventory. Their final treatment depends on when inventory is sold or disposed of. Product costs assigned to finished goods that are sold in year 2019 are reported on the 2019 income statement as cost of goods sold. Product costs assigned to unsold inventory are carried forward on the balance sheet at the end of year 2019. If this inventory is sold in year 2020, product costs assigned to it are reported as cost of goods sold in that year’s income statement.

‹#›

Identifications of Cost Classifications

Learning Objective C3: Define product and period costs and explain how they impact financial statements.

Exhibit 14.9

© McGraw-Hill Education

15

18 - ‹#›

Costs can be classified using any one (or combination) of the three different means described here. Understanding how to classify costs in several different ways enables managers to use cost information for a variety of decisions. Factory rent, for instance, is classified as a product cost; it is fixed with respect to the number of units produced, and it is indirect with respect to the product. Potential multiple classifications are shown in this slide using different cost items incurred in manufacturing mountain bikes. The finished bike is the cost object. Managerial decisions based on cost data depend on correct cost classifications.

‹#›

Cost Concepts for Service Companies

The cost concepts described are generally applicable to service organizations.

For example, the cost of beverages for passengers of Southwest Airlines is a variable cost based on number of passengers.

Learning Objective C3: Define product and period costs and explain how they impact financial statements.

© McGraw-Hill Education

16

18 - ‹#›

The cost concepts also apply to service organizations. For example, consider Southwest Airlines, and assume the cost object is a flight. The airline’s cost of beverages for passengers is a variable cost based on number of flights. The monthly cost of leasing an aircraft is fixed with respect to number of flights. We can also trace a flight crew’s salary to a specific flight whereas we likely cannot trace wages for the ground crew to a specific flight. Classification as product versus period costs is not relevant to service companies because services are not inventoried. Instead, costs incurred by a service firm are expensed in the reporting period when incurred.

Managers in service companies must understand and apply cost concepts. For example, an airline manager must often decide between canceling or rerouting flights. The manager must be able to estimate costs saved by canceling a flight versus rerouting. Knowledge of fixed costs is equally important.

18 - ‹#›

Companies with manufacturing activities differ from both merchandising and service companies. The main difference between merchandising and manufacturing companies is that merchandisers buy goods ready for sale while manufacturers produce goods from materials and labor. Amazon is a merchandiser. It buys and sells goods without physically changing them. Adidas is a manufacturer of shoes, apparel, and accessories. It purchases materials such as leather, cloth, dye, plastic, rubber, glue, and laces and then uses employees’ labor to convert these materials to products. Southwest is a service company that transports people and items.

Example:

Steel used in the frame of a mountain bike.

Direct Materials

Direct materials costs are the expenditures for direct materials that are separately and readily traced through the manufacturing process to finished goods.

Learning Objective C3: Define product and period costs and explain how they impact financial statements.

18 - ‹#›

Direct materials are tangible components of a finished product. Direct material costs are the expenditures for direct materials that are separately and readily traced through the manufacturing process to finished goods. Examples of direct materials in manufacturing a mountain bike include its tires, seat, frame, pedals, brakes, cables, gears, and handlebars.

‹#›

Example:

Wages paid to a mountain bike assembly worker.

Direct Labor

Direct labor costs are the wages and salaries for direct labor that are separately and readily traced through the manufacturing process to finished goods.

Learning Objective C3: Define product and period costs and explain how they impact financial statements.

© McGraw-Hill Education

19

18 - ‹#›

Direct labor refers to the employees who physically convert materials to finished product. Direct labor costs are the wages and benefits for direct labor that are separately and readily traced through the manufacturing process to finished goods. Examples of direct labor in manufacturing a mountain bike include operators directly involved in converting raw materials into finished products (welding, painting, forming) and assembly workers who attach materials such as tires, seats, pedals, and brakes.

‹#›

Examples:

Indirect labor – maintenance.

Indirect material – cleaning supplies. Factory utility costs. Supervisory costs.

Factory Overhead

Factory overhead consists of all manufacturing costs that are not direct materials or direct labor and are not separately traced to finished goods.

Learning Objective C3: Define product and period costs and explain how they impact financial statements.

© McGraw-Hill Education

20

18 - ‹#›

Factory overhead, also called manufacturing overhead, consists of all manufacturing costs that are not direct materials or direct labor. Factory overhead costs are not separately or readily traced to finished goods. Factory overhead costs are indirect costs that include indirect materials, indirect labor, and other indirect costs not directly traceable to the product.

Indirect materials are components used in manufacturing the product, but they are not clearly identified with specific product units. Direct materials are often classified as indirect materials when their costs are low. Examples include screws and nuts used in assembling mountain bikes, and staples and glue used in manufacturing shoes. Applying the materiality principle, it does not make economic sense to individually trace costs of each of these materials to individual products. For example, keeping detailed records of the amount of glue used to manufacture one shoe is not cost-beneficial.

Indirect labor costs refer to the costs of workers who assist in or supervise the manufacturing. Indirect labor are workers who assist or supervise in manufacturing the product, but they are not clearly identified with specific product units. Examples include costs for employees who maintain the manufacturing equipment and salaries of production supervisors.

Indirect other costs include factory utilities (water, gas, electricity), factory rent, depreciation on factory buildings and equipment, factory insurance, property taxes on factory buildings and equipment, and factory accounting and legal services.

Nonmanufacturing Costs –Factory overhead does not include selling and administrative expenses because they are not incurred in manufacturing products. These expenses are period costs, and they are recorded as expenses on the income statement when incurred. For a manufacturing company, such costs are also called nonmanufacturing costs. Examples include office employee salaries, depreciation on office equipment, and advertising expenses.

‹#›

Direct Material

Direct Labor

Manufacturing Overhead

Prime Cost

Conversion Cost

Manufacturing costs are often combined as follows:

Prime and Conversion Costs

Learning Objective C3: Define product and period costs and explain how they impact financial statements.

© McGraw-Hill Education

21

18 - ‹#›

We can classify product costs into prime or conversion costs. Prime costs are costs directly associated with the manufacture of finished goods, which includes both direct material and direct labor costs. Conversion costs are costs incurred in the process of converting raw materials to finished goods, which includes both direct labor costs and manufacturing overhead costs. Notice that direct labor costs are considered both prime costs and conversion costs. Classification into conversion costs is useful for process costing.

‹#›

Nonmanufacturing Costs

Recorded as expenses on the income statement when incurred.

Expenses are period cost.

Selling and administrative expenses.

Not part of Factory Overhead because they are not incurred in manufacturing products.

18 - ‹#›

Manufacturers carry several unique assets and usually have three inventories instead of the single inventory that merchandisers carry. The three inventories are raw materials, work in process, and finished goods.

Raw materials inventory is the goods a company acquires to use in making products. Companies use raw materials in two ways: directly and indirectly. Raw materials that are possible and practical to trace to product are called direct materials; they are included in raw materials inventory.

Work in process inventory, also called goods in process inventory consists of products in the process of being manufactured but not yet complete. The amount of work in process inventory depends on the type of production process.

Finished goods inventory consists of completed products ready for sale. It is similar to merchandise inventory owned by a merchandising company.

‹#›

The primary difference is inventory.

Balance Sheets for Manufacturers, Merchandisers and Servicers

Learning Objective C4: Explain how balance sheets and income statements for manufacturing, merchandising, and service companies differ.

Exhibit 14.11

26

18 - ‹#›

The primary difference in the Balance Sheet of a Merchandiser and a Manufacturer is the presentation of Inventory under the Current Assets section. Merchandisers have one category of inventory called Merchandise Inventory. Manufacturers have three major categories of inventory: Raw Materials, Work in Process, also called goods in process, and Finished Goods.

The current assets section of the balance sheet will look different for merchandising and service companies as compared to manufacturing companies. A merchandiser will report only merchandise inventory rather than the three types of inventory reported by a manufacturer. A service company’s balance sheet does not have any inventory held for sale. Exhibit 14.11 shows the current assets section of the balance sheet for a manufacturer, a merchandiser, and a service company.

28

18 - ‹#›

The main difference between the income statement of a manufacturer and that of a merchandiser involves the items making up cost of goods sold.

This slide compares the components of cost of goods sold for a merchandiser with those for a manufacturer. Merchandisers add cost of goods purchased to beginning merchandise inventory and then subtract ending merchandise inventory to get cost of goods sold. Manufacturers add cost of goods manufactured to beginning finished goods inventory and then subtract ending finished goods inventory to compute cost of goods sold.

In computing cost of goods sold, a merchandiser uses merchandise inventory while a manufacturer uses finished goods inventory. A manufacturer’s inventories of raw materials and work in process are not included in finished goods because they are not available for sale. A manufacturer also shows cost of goods manufactured instead of cost of goods purchased.

‹#›

Cost of Goods Sold for a Merchandiser and Manufacturer

Cost of goods sold for manufacturers differs only slightly from cost of goods sold for merchandisers.

Learning Objective P1: Compute cost of goods sold for a manufacturer and for a merchandiser.

Exhibit 14.13

© McGraw-Hill Education

29

18 - ‹#›

The Cost of Goods Sold sections for both a merchandiser (Tele-Mart) and a manufacturer (Rocky Mountain Bikes) are shown in this slide to highlight these differences. The remaining income statement sections are similar for merchandisers and manufacturers.

Although the cost of goods sold computations are similar, the numbers in these computations reflect different activities. A merchandiser’s cost of goods purchased is the cost of buying products to be sold. A manufacturer’s cost of goods manufactured is the sum of direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead costs incurred in making products.

Since a service provider does not make or buy inventory to be sold, it does not report cost of goods manufactured or cost of goods sold. Instead, its operating expenses include all of the costs it incurs in providing its service.

18 - ‹#›

In addition to income statements and balance sheets, manufacturing companies prepare additional reports for planning and control. To understand these reports, we must know the flow of manufacturing activities and costs. This slide shows the flow of manufacturing activities and the cost flows of those activities. Looking across the top row the activities flow consists of materials activity followed by production activity followed by sales activity. The boxes below those activities show the costs for each activity and how costs flow across the three activities.

The production activity that takes place in the period results in products that are either finished or not finished at the end of the period. The cost of finished products makes up the cost of goods manufactured for the current period. The cost of goods manufactured is the total cost of making and finishing products in the period.

The company adds the cost of the beginning inventory of finished goods with the cost of the newly completed units (goods manufactured). Together, they make up total finished goods available for sale in the current period. As they are sold, the cost of finished products sold is reported on the income statement as cost of goods sold. The cost of any finished products not sold in the period is reported as a current asset, finished goods inventory, on the current period’s balance sheet.

Managers of manufacturing firms analyze product costs. Those managers aim to make better decisions about materials, labor, and overhead to reduce the cost of goods manufactured and improve income. A company’s manufacturing activities are described in a report called a schedule of cost of goods manufactured also called a manufacturing statement and a statement of cost of goods manufactured. The schedule of cost of goods manufactured summarizes the types and amounts of costs incurred in the manufacturing process.

4. Compute the cost of goods manufactured. Total manufacturing costs for the period are $175,500 ($85,500 + $60,000 + $30,000), the sum of direct materials and direct labor, and overhead costs incurred. This amount is added to beginning work in process inventory which gives the total work in process during the period of $178,000 ($175,500 + $2,500). A physical count shows $7,500 of work in process inventory remains at the end of the period. We then compute the current period’s cost of goods manufactured of $170,500 by taking the $178,000 total work in process and subtracting the $7,500 cost of ending work in process inventory. The cost of goods manufactured amount is also called net cost of goods manufactured or cost of goods completed.

Estimating Cost Per Unit Managers use the schedule of cost of goods manufactured to make rough estimates of per unit costs. For example, if Rocky Mountain Bikes made 1,000 bikes during the year, the average manufacturing cost per unit is $170.50 (computed as $170,500/1,000). Average cost per unit is not always an the appropriate cost for managerial decisions.

There is increased emphasis on customers as the most important constituent of a business. Customers expect to derive a certain value for the money they spend to buy products and services. Buyers expect that suppliers provide them the right service (or product) at the right time and the right price. This implies that companies accept the notion of customer orientation, which means that managers and employees understand the changing needs and wants of customers and align management and operating practices accordingly.

Total quality management focuses on quality improvement to its business activities. Managers and employees seek to uncover waste in business activities including accounting activities such as payroll and disbursements.

Just-in-time manufacturing is a system that acquires inventory and produces only when needed. An important aspect of JIT is that companies manufacture products only after they receive an order (a demand-pull system) and then deliver the customer’s requirements on time. This means that processes must be aligned to eliminate delays and inefficiencies including inferior inputs and outputs. Companies must also establish good communications with their suppliers. On the downside, JIT is more susceptible to disruption than traditional systems. As one example, several General Motors plants were temporarily shut down due to a strike at a supplier which supplied components just in time to the assembly division.

In addition to maximizing shareholder value, corporations must consider the demands of other stakeholders, including employees, suppliers, and society in general. Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is a concept that goes beyond following the law. Triple bottom line, focuses on three measures: financial (“profits”), social (“people”), and environmental (“planet”).

Adopting a triple bottom line impacts how businesses report. In response to a growing trend of such reporting, the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) was established to develop reporting standards for businesses’ sustainability activities. Some of the business sectors for which the SASB has developed reporting standards include health care, nonrenewable resources, and renewable resources and alternative energy.

A manager can assess how effectively a company manages its raw materials inventory by computing the raw materials inventory turnover ratio as shown in this slide.

This ratio reveals how many times a company turns over (uses in production) its raw materials inventory during a period. Generally, a high ratio of raw materials inventory turnover is preferred, as long as raw materials inventory levels are adequate to meet demand.

To further assess raw materials inventory management, a manager can measure the adequacy of raw materials inventory to meet production demand. Days’ sales in raw materials inventory reveals how much raw materials inventory is available in terms of the number of days’ sales. It is a measure of how long it takes raw materials to be used in production.
