| * A '''[[w:pre-determined overhead rate|pre-determined overhead rate]]''' or '''[[w:POHR|POHR]]''' is the rate used to apply [[w:manufacturing|manufacturing]] [[w:business process overhead|overhead]] to work-in-process [[w:inventory|inventory]].
| |
| :::The pre-determined overhead rate is calculated before the period begins. The first step is to estimate the amount of the [[w:Activity-based costing|activity base]] that will be required to support operations in the upcoming period.
| |
| :::The second step is to estimate the total [[w:manufacturing cost|manufacturing cost]] at that level of activity.
| |
| :::The third step is to compute the predetermined overhead rate by dividing the estimated total [[w:manufacturing overhead costs|manufacturing overhead costs]] by the estimated total amount of [[w:cost accounting|cost driver]] or [[w:Activity-based costing|activity base]].
| |
| :::Common activity bases used in the calculation include direct [[w:cost|labor costs]], direct [[w:Working time|labor hours]], or [[w:machine|machine]] hours. ( Wikipedia )

| *'''[[w:Cost–volume–profit analysis|Cost–volume–profit analysis]]''' ('''CVP'''), in [[w:managerial economics|managerial economics]], is a form of [[w:cost accounting|cost accounting]]. It is a simplified model, useful for elementary instruction and for short-run decisions. ( Wikipedia )
| |
| | |
| == Managerial Accounting - Lesson 4 - Master budgets and operational budgets ==
| |
| * A '''[[w:budget|budget]]''' is a quantitative expression of a plan for a defined period of time. It may include planned sales volumes and revenues, resource quantities, costs and expenses, assets, liabilities and cash flows. ( Wikipedia )
| |
| | |
| '''Budget types'''
| |
| * '''Sales budget''' – an estimate of future sales, often broken down into both units and currency. It is used to create company sales goals.
| |
| * '''[[w:Production budget|Production budget]]''' - an estimate of the number of units that must be manufactured to meet the sales goals. The production budget also estimates the various costs involved with manufacturing those units, including labor and material. Created by product oriented companies.
| |
| * '''[[w:Capital budget|Capital budget]]''' - used to determine whether an organization's long term investments such as new machinery, replacement machinery, new plants, new products, and research development projects are worth pursuing.
| |
| * '''Cash flow/cash budget''' – a prediction of future cash receipts and expenditures for a particular time period. It usually covers a period in the short term future. The cash flow budget helps the business determine when income will be sufficient to cover expenses and when the company will need to seek outside financing.
| |
| * '''Marketing budget''' – an estimate of the funds needed for promotion, advertising, and public relations in order to market the product or service.
| |
| * '''Project budget''' – a prediction of the costs associated with a particular company project. These costs include labour, materials, and other related expenses. The project budget is often broken down into specific tasks, with task budgets assigned to each. A cost estimate is used to establish a project budget.
| |
| * '''Revenue budget''' – consists of revenue receipts of government and the expenditure met from these revenues. Tax revenues are made up of taxes and other duties that the government levies.
| |
| * '''Expenditure budget''' – includes spending data items. ( Wikipedia )
| |

| | |
| == Managerial Accounting - Lesson 5 - Activity based costing ==
| |
| | |
| '''[[w:Activity based costing|Activity based costing]]''' ('''ABC''') is a costing methodology that identifies activities in an organization and assigns the cost of each activity with resources to all products and services according to the actual consumption by each. This model assigns more [[w:indirect costs|indirect costs]] ([[w:overhead (business)|overhead]]) into [[w:direct costs|direct costs]] compared to conventional costing. ( Wikipedia )
| |
| :::CIMA (Chartered Institute of Management Accountants) defines ABC as
| |
| :::: ''an approach to the costing and monitoring of activities which involves tracing resource consumption and costing final outputs.''
| |
| ::::Resources are assigned to activities, and activities to cost objects based on consumption estimates. The latter utilize cost drivers to attach activity costs to outputs. ( Wikipedia )
| |
| | |
| * '''[[w:Sensitivity analysis|Sensitivity analysis]]''' is the study of how the [[w:uncertainty|uncertainty]] in the output of a [[w:mathematical model|mathematical model]] or system (numerical or otherwise) can be apportioned to different sources of [[w:uncertainty|uncertainty]] in its inputs. ( Wikipedia )

| |
| * '''[[w:price taker|price taker]]''' vs. '''price setter'''

Pricing is also a key variable in [[w:microeconomic|microeconomic]] price allocation theory. ( Wikipedia )
| |
| * '''[[w:pricing|pricing]]''' and '''costing'''
| |
| ** '''[[w:target costing|target costing]]''' is a [[w:pricing|pricing]] method used by firms. ... A target cost is the maximum amount of cost that can be incurred on a product and with it the firm can still earn the required [[w:profit margin|profit margin]] from that product at a particular selling price. ( Wikipedia )
| |
| ** '''[[w:cost-plus pricing|cost-plus pricing]]''' is a '''[[w:pricing strategies|pricing strategy]]''' companies use to maximize their rates of return. Firms may accomplish their objective of [[w:profit maximization|profit maximization]] by increasing their production until [[w:marginal revenue|marginal revenue]] equals [[w:marginal cost|marginal cost]] and then charging a price which is determined by the [[w:demand curve|demand curve]]. ( Wikipedia )
| |
| ::: The MR == MC assumption is very unecological often. Assumes we are not sharing a limited planet ( jubo-jubo )
| |
| * '''Return on investment''' (%) = (Net profit / Investment) × 100 ( Wikipedia )
| |
| :::'''[[w:Return on investment|Return on investment]]''' ('''ROI''') is the concept of an [[w:investment|investment]] of some resource yielding a benefit to the investor.

| :::The cost of each cost center can be direct or indirect cost. The direct cost can be easily identified with individual cost centers. whereas the indirect cost cant be easily identified with the cost center.
| |
| :::The distribution of overhead among the departments is called '''[[w:apportionment|apportionment]]'''. ( Wikipedia )
