MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING
It is the process of Identification, Measurement, Accumulation, Analysis, Preparation, Interpretation and Communication of financial information used by management to plan, evaluate and control an organisation and to ensure appropriate use of and accountability for its resources.
It is thus the process of :
Identification Measurement Accumulation Analysis Preparation and interpretation Communication

1. Financial accounting serves the interest of external users while management accounting caters to the needs of internal users.
2. Financial accounting is governed by the generally accepted accounting principles while management accounting has no set principles.
3. Financial accounting presents historical information while management accounting represents predetermined as well as past information.
4. Financial accounting is statutory while management accounting is optional.
![Page 14: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

5. Financial accounting presents annual reports while management accounting reports are of both shorter and longer duration.
6. Financial accounting reports cover the entire organization while management accounting reports are prepared for the organization as will as its segments.
7. Financial accounting emphasises accuracy of facts whilemanagement accounting requires prompt and timely reporting of facts even if they are less precise.

CLASSIFICATION OF COSTS BEHAVIOURALLY
Variable costs : When costs change in direct proportion to changes in volume, it is called variable costs. Variable cost vary in proportionate with volume. Mathematically, a linear relationship could exist between variable costs and volume.
Fixed costs : When costs remain non-variable (fixed) to changes in volume, it is called a fixed cost. Fixed costs remain at the same level irrespective of changes in volume.
Semi fixed /semi-variable costs : Costs which are partially fixed and partially variable.
![Page 26: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

BREAK EVEN ANALYSIS
Cost-volume-profit (CVP) analysis :
The technique to study the behaviour of profit in response to the changes in volume, costs and prices is called CVP analysis. Break even analysis is the most widely known form of CVP analysis.
Break even point :
It is that point of sales at which total revenue is equal to total costs. It is a no-profit, no-loss point.
![Page 27: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

BREAK EVEN FORMULA
F = Total fixed costV = Total variable costT = Total costS = Total sales
Total fixed costBEP(Units) = ---------------------
Unit contributionwhere unit contribution = Unit sales - Unit variable cost.
Total fixed costBEP(Rs) = ---------------------- x Unit selling price.
Unit contribution

•Margin of safety : The excess of actual or budgeted sales over break even sales is called
margin of safety.
Budgeted sales - Break even sales •Margin of safety ratio = ------------------------------------------
Budgeted sales•Break even point is a function of fixed cost, unit selling price and unit variable cost.

29
PROFIT VOLUME RATIO (P/V RATIO)
It represents the rate at which the company isgenerating surplus in the financial system.
ContributionP/V = -----------------
Sales
Break even analysis:
Scenario 1 : Company having a high P/V ratio but also having high BEP. Reason : Fixed cost is high.
![Page 30: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
30
Scenario 2 : Company having high selling prices but low P/V ratio, high BEP and a low M.O.S.Reason : High variable cost.
Scenario 3 : Company having high selling price, low variable cost, low M.O.S.Reason : Low volumes.

PROFIT ANALYSIS
Impact of changing factors
Profits may be affected by the changes in the following factors.
1. Selling price
2. Volume
3. Variable costs
4. Fixed costs
5. A combination of all or any of the above factors.
![Page 32: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

UTILITY OF CVP ANALYSIS
1. Understanding accounting data.
2. Diagnostic tool
3. Provides basic information for profit improvement 4. Risk implications for alternative action.
![Page 33: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
33
LIMITATIONS OF CVP - ANALYSIS
1. Difficulty in segregation of fixed and variable costs.
2. The assumption that total fixed costs would remain unchanged over the entire range of volume is not valid.
3. The assumption of constant selling prices and variable costs is not valid.
4. Difficult to use in a multi-product company.
5. It is a short run concept with a limited use in long range planning.
6. It is a static tool.
![Page 34: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
34
MARGINAL COSTING
Marginal costing is also called as direct costing.
It is a system of segregating costs between fixed and variable components and charging the product only the variable cost. It comprises of the prime cost and variable overheads. It highlights the concept of contribution margin, which is the excess of sales over variable costs.
Contribution = U.S.P - U.V.C
![Page 35: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
35
ABSORPTION COSTING
Generally accepted conventional system of product costing and
external reporting. The basic premise on which this system
rests is that all costs, direct and indirect, should be charged to
the cost of goods in a given period.
![Page 36: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
36
DIRECT COSTING VS. ABSORPTION COSTING
1. Sales equals production PA = PD
2. Production exceeds salesPA > PD
3. Sales exceeds production,PD > PA

SHORT RUN DECISION MAKING PROCESS USING MARGINAL COSTING
The following steps/ elements need to be analysed :
1. Identify and define the problem
2. Identify alternatives as possible solutions to the problem
3. Eliminate alternatives that are clearly not feasible
![Page 41: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
41
LIMITATIONS OF MARGINAL COSTING
1. Difficulty in segregation of fixed and variable costs
2. Improper to exclude fixed manufacturing overheads from inventories
3. Wide fluctuations in profits
4. Only a short run profit planning and decision making technique
5. Non-acceptable for external reporting
![Page 42: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
42
STANDARD COSTING
Standard costs are “scientifically predetermined costs”.
They are an estimate prepared in advance, co-relating to a technical specification of materials and labour.
VARIANCE ANALYSIS :
It is the difference between standard costs and actual costs.
Variances are of two types :
a. Favourable variance
b. Unfavourable variance
![Page 43: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
43
STEPS IN STANDARD COSTING & VARIANCE ANALYSIS
1. Establish scientific standards for each element of cost.
2. Communicate these standards through budgets.
3. Cost comparison.
4. Variance analysis.
5. Corrective action.
![Page 44: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)

SALES BUDGET
The forecast of goods to be sold is the starting point in budgeting. The forecast is prepared after consideration of the following factors:
a) The quantity and value of past sales;
b) Competition and conditions within the particular industry;
c) General economic conditions;
d) Market research and salesmen’s estimates;
e) Sales mix – which is dependent on the relative product profitability

![Page 70: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
70
FLEXIBLE BUDGETING
It is a budget which by recognizing the difference between fixed, semi fixed and variable costs, is designed to change in relation to the level of activity attained. It is a budget prepared for a range and is also known as variable budget or a sliding scale budget.
Steps in flexible budgeting:
1. Deciding the range of activity
2. Determine cost behaviour patterns
3. Selecting the activity levels to prepare budgets at those levels
4. Prepare budget at each activity level
![Page 71: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
71
CASH BUDGET
It contains detailed estimates of cash receipts (cash inflows) and disbursements (cash outflows) for the period under review. It fulfills the following objectives:1. It indicates the effect on the cash position of seasonal requirements, large inventories, unusual receipts and delays in collection of receivables.2. Indicates cash requirements for working capital and fixed capital3. Indicates availability of cash for taking advantage of discounts4. Fund flow planning5. Asset liability planning6. Establishes/ determines external fund requirement
![Page 72: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
72
ZERO BASE BUDGETING
ZBB is a method of budgeting whereby all activities are revalued each time a budget is formulated and every item of expenditure in the budget is fully justified. That is, ZBB involves starting from scratch or zero.
![Page 73: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
73
Implementation of ZBB involves the following :
1. Each activity of the organisation is identified and called a decision package
2. Each decision package must be justified
3. If justified the minimum cost to sustain each decision package is determined
4. Alternatives for decision packages are evaluated
5. Managers rank their decision package in order of priority for resource allocation
6. Resources are allocated to the package
![Page 74: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
74
ADVANTAGES OF ZBB
1. Allocation of resources by need and benefit.
2. Identifies and eliminates wastage's and obsolete operations .
3. Best possible methods of performing jobs is ensured.
4. Increased staff involvement which may lead to improved motivation and greater interest in job.
5. It increases communication and co-ordination within the organisation.
6. Managers become more aware of cost inputs which help in identifying priorities.
![Page 75: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
75
DISADVANTAGES OF ZBB
1. Substantial Cost & time involved in preparing a large number of decision packages.
2. Managers could develop fear and feel threatened by ZBB.
3. Ranking of packages could result in departmental conflict.
![Page 76: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)

78
ALLOCATION OF OVERHEADS
Indirect, or overhead costs are difficult to be traced to products. However, these costs will have to be allocated to production departments and products for the purposes of
1. Valuation of inventory.
2. Controlling costs.
3. Decision making.
4. Product pricing.
![Page 79: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
79
DEPARTMENTALISATION
For the purpose of accumulating costs, a company divides itself into departments or smaller units.
There are two broad categories of departments or cost centres.
Production cost centres.
Service cost centres.
![Page 80: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
80
ALLOCATION PROCESS
i) Assignment of direct costs.
ii) Allocation of indirect costs (primary allocation).
iii) Allocation of service department costs (secondary allocation).
iv) Absorption of costs by products.
![Page 81: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
81
ALLOCATION BASIS
1. Space related.
2. Value related.
3. Activity related.
4. Material related.
5. Utility related.
6. Labour related.
![Page 82: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
82
METHODS OF ALLOCATION
1. Step ladder method.
2. Repeated distribution.
3. Matrix algebra.
![Page 83: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
83
LEARNING CURVES AND NON LINEAR COSTS
The learning curve phenomena is based on the concept that cost,s tend to be non linear.
It is found that the cost of doing most tasks of a repetitive nature decrease as experience at doing these tasks accumulate.
Most experience curves, estimated on actual process, indicate that costs decline 20 to 30 percent each time accumulated experience doubles.
![Page 84: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
84
Factors that lead to this long-run decline in costs include:
1. Labour efficiency.
2. New process and improved methods.
3. Product stadardisation.
4. Scale effect.
![Page 85: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)
85
In competitive scenarios this effect should net of inflation.
The learning curve phenomena is represented by the equation:
Y=A X -b
Y= average number of direct labour hours per unit
A= number of direct labour hours for the first unit
X= cumulative number of units produced
b= index of learning rate (o<b<1)
The direct labour hours (DLH) decreases exponentially with cumulative output.
![Page 86: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
86
ACTIVITY BASED COSTING
In Activity based costing (ABC) costs are first traced to activities and then to products. It is a system which focuses on activities performed to produce products . Activities become the focal point of cost accumulation
ABC involves two primary stages
-Tracing costs to activities
-Tracing activities to products
![Page 87: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)
87
COSTS DRIVERS IN ABC
1. Number of receiving orders.
2. Number of purchase orders.
3. Number of dispatch orders.
4. Number of units.
5. Amount of labour cost involved.
6. Number of material handling man hours.
7. Number of direct labour hours.
8. Number of vendors/ suppliers.
9. Number of set up hours.
10. Number of employees.
11. Number of labour transaction.
![Page 88: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/88.jpg)
88
CLASSIFICATION OF ACTIVITIES
Activities are classified into one of the four activity categories:
1. Unit level activities
2. Batch level activities
3. Product level activities
4. Facility level activities
![Page 89: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/89.jpg)
89
ADVANTAGES OF ABC
1. ABC brings accuracy and reliability in product cost determination by focusing on cause and effect relationship in the cost incurrance.
2. More systematised/ logical way of tracing/ allocating fixed overheads.
3. Better mechanism for managing cost.
4. Better control over activities which generate fixed overheads.
5. Controlling activities which drive costs.
![Page 90: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/90.jpg)
90
PROFIT CENTRE MANAGEMENT
A profit centre is a responsibility centre where the manager is responsible for both costs and revenues and thus for profits.
A profit centre provides more effective assessment of performance as both costs and revenues are measured in financial terms.
![Page 91: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/91.jpg)
91
Organisation will be divided into:
- Profit center
- Cost center
- Service centre
Cost and service centres will at mutually agreed transfer price will pass on the cost to the profit centre.
Cost centres and service centres should not show any surplus.
![Page 92: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/92.jpg)
92
ADVANTAGES OF PROFIT CENTRES
1. Speed of operating decisions may be increased.
2. Quality of decisions tend to improve.
3. Corporate management may be relieved of day to
day decisions.
4. Profit consciousness is enhanced.
5. Better measurement of performance.
6. Organisation becomes profit conscious.
![Page 93: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/93.jpg)
93
DISADVANTAGES OF PROFIT CENTRES
1. Top management may lose control.
2. Competent managers may not exist to take decision in profit
centres.
3. Friction among centres.
4. Too much emphasis on short term profitability.
![Page 94: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/94.jpg)
94
TRANSFER PRICING
The fundamental principle is that the transfer price
should be similar to the price that would be charged if the
product would sold to outside customers or purchased from
outside vendors.
![Page 95: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/95.jpg)
95
Pricing mechanism used for inter divisional transfer of goods/ services in divisionalised/ profit centre managed companies. While determining transfer prices a number of criteria should be carefully followed:
1. Should help in accurate measurement of divisional performance.
2. Should motivate divisional management into maximising their divisions profitability and making decisions that are in the interest of the organisation as a whole.
3. Should ensure divisional autonomy and authority.
4. Goal congruent objectives.
![Page 96: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/96.jpg)
96
IDEAL SITUATION TO IMPLEMENT TRANSFER PRICING
1. Competent people.
2. Good atmosphere.
3. Market price.
4. Freedom to source.
5. Full flow to information.
6. Negotiations.

97
TYPES OF TRANSFER PRICING
1. Market price based
2. Cost based price
3.Variable costa. Actual full costb. Cost plus approachc. Standard costd. Opportunity coste. Administered price based
4. Negotiated price based
![Page 98: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/98.jpg)
98
FACTORS INFLUENCING PRICING DECISIONS
Product pricing decisions are influenced by internal and
external factors which are as follows:
1. Cost data of the product which could be based upon
replacement, actual, standard or any other cost base.
2. Firms profit and other objectives.
3. Demand for the product and its elasticity.
![Page 99: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/99.jpg)
99
4. Nature of product and its life expectancy.
5. Pricing decision as a long run decision or a one time
spare capacity decision.
6. Type of competition and availability of “me too”
products.
7. Economic/ fiscal trends.
8. Seasonal or continual demand.
![Page 100: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/100.jpg)

INVENTORY MANAGEMENT AND VALUATION
Inventory comprises :
Raw material stock Work in progress Finished good stock
Inventory holding is depended upon:
- Nature of business Through put time Competitiveness in raw-material market Market for finished product Seasonality in demand
![Page 101: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/101.jpg)
101
Inventory management :
Optimise inventory levels to reduce inventory carrying / holding costs.
Objectives :
Reduce inventory to the lowest acceptable limit. Minimise inventory carrying cost. Minimise losses to price / exchange fluctuations. Identify slow moving items. Prevent stock out costs.
![Page 102: MANagement ACCounting..must read](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081511/5527dc7a550346e66e8b456b/html5/thumbnails/102.jpg)
102
INVENTORY VALUATION METHODS
1. LIFO (last in first out)
2. FIFO (first in first out)
3. Weighted average.
Choice of valuation system is important since it, - Influences book profits there by affecting the tax liability.
- Once adopted cannot be changed (prior approval of it department essential).
