• Assigns all manufacturing costs to the product– direct materials– direct labour– variable overhead– fixed overhead

• Fixed overhead is applied to the product using a predetermined overhead rate

• Required by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for external reporting

• Segment is a subunit of a company– divisions– departments– product lines– customer classes

• Fixed expenses are broken down into two categories:– direct fixed expenses

• directly traceable to a segment– common fixed expenses

• jointly caused by two or more segments

Traditional Reasons for Carrying InventoryTraditional Reasons for Carrying Inventory

• To balance ordering or setup costs and carrying costs• To satisfy customer demand • To avoid shutting down manufacturing facilities because

of:– Machine failure– Defective parts– Unavailable parts– Late delivery of parts

• To buffer against unreliable production processes• To take advantage of discounts• To hedge against future price increases

Just-in-Time (JIT) ApproachJust-in-Time (JIT) Approach

• Goods pushed through the system by present demand rather than being pushed through on a fixed schedule based on anticipated demand

• Each operation produces only what is necessary to satisfy the demand of the succeeding operation

• Reduces all inventories to very low levels• Reduces inventory carrying costs
