Identify the two methods for disposing of the standardcost variances at the endof a year and give therationale for each.
-
Disposition of Standard-Cost VariancesThere are two methods for disposing of the standard cost variances at the end of a year1. An adjustment to income of the current year.2. An assignment to both inventory and cost of goods sold by proration.
-
Disposition of Standard-Cost VariancesOne view is that in standard costing the standards are viewed as currently attainable.Therefore, variances are not inventoriable and should be treated as adjustments to the income of the period instead of being added to inventories.
-
Disposition of Standard-Cost VariancesAnother view favors assigning the variances to the inventories and cost of goods sold related to the production during the period the variances arose. This is often called prorating the variances.
-
Learning ObjectiveCompute the production-volume variance and showhow it should appear in theincome statement.
-
Production-Volume VarianceA production-volume variance is a variance that appears whenever actual production deviates from the expected volume of production used in computing the fixed overhead rate.
-
Production-Volume Variance Actual volume- Expected volume Difference X Fixed overhead rate = Production-volume variance
-
Volume Variance Applied fixed overhead Budgeted fixed overhead= Production-volume varianceIn practice, theproduction-volumevariance is usuallycalled simply thevolume variance.
-
Other VariancesThe fixed-overhead flexible budget variance (also called the fixed-overhead spending variance or simply the budget variance) is the difference between actual fixed overhead and budgeted fixed overhead.
-
Fixed Overhead VariancesUniversal Co. uses a standard cost system and prepared the following budget at normal capacity for January: Direct-labor hours (denominator hours)24,000 Variable factory overhead$ 48,000 Fixed factory overhead$108,000 Total factory overhead per direct-labor hour$ 6.50Actual data for January were as follows: Direct-labor hours worked 22,000 Total fixed factory overhead$105,000 Total variable overhead$ 45,000 Standard direct-labor hrs allowed for capacity attained 20,000 Fixed overhead spending variance for January?a. $2,000 favorable b. $3,000 favorable c. $2,000 unfavorable b. $3,000 unfavorable e. other

-
*Flexible-Budget VariancesAll variances other than the production-volume variance are essentially flexible-budget variances.
-
*Flexible-Budget VariancesFlexible-budget variances measure components of the differences between 1. actual amounts and 2. the flexible-budget amounts for the output achieved.

*Flexible-Budget VariancesFlexible budgets are primarilydesigned to assist planning andcontrol rather than product costing.

Variable vs. Absorption CostingThe differences between variable-costing and absorption-costing methods are based on the treatment of fixed manufacturing overhead.
-
Variable vs Absorption CostingVariable costing excludes fixed manufacturing overhead from inventoriable costs.
Absorption costing treats fixed manufacturing overhead as inventoriable costs.
-
Fixed-Overhead RateThe fixed-overhead rate is the amount of fixed manufacturing overhead applied to each unit of production.It is determined by dividing the budgeted fixed overhead by the expected volume of production for the budget period.
-
Reconciliation of Variable Costing and Absorption CostingThe difference in income equals the difference in the total amount of fixed manufacturing overhead charged as expense during a given year.

Reconciliation of Variable Costing and Absorption CostingUnder absorption costing, fixed overhead appears in the cost of goods sold and also in the production volume variance.Under variable costing, fixed overhead is a period cost.

Direct Costing Questions- JV Co. -1 JV Co. began its operations on January 1, and produces a single product that sells for $7.00 per unit. Standard capacity is 100,000 units per year. 100,000 units were produced and 80,000 units were sold in the year. Costs and expenses were as follows:Fixed CostsVariable CostsRaw materials $1.50 per unit producedDirect labor 1.00 per unit producedFactory overhead$150,000.50 per unit producedSelling & admin.80,000.50 per unit soldThere were no variances from the standard variable costs. Unit cost under absorption costing is:a. $2.50. b. $3.00. c. $3.50. d. $4.50.

Direct Costing QuestionsAt the end of Killo Co.s first year of operations, 1,000 units of inventory remained on hand. Variable and fixed manufacturing costs per unit were $90 and $70, respectively. If Killo uses absorption costing rather than variable (direct) costing, the result would be a higher pretax income ofa. $0 b. $20,000 c. $70,000 d. $90,000
-
Direct Costing QuestionsFixed manufacturing costs of $70,000 would be reported as part of the cost of ending inventory under the absorption method, but would be shown as part of expense on the income statement under direct costing. This is the first year, so we do not have a difference in the cost of beginning inventory for these two methods.

Product-Costing Systems Affect Operating IncomeAbsorption- and variable-costing systemsaffect operating income because of theirtreatment of fixed factory overhead.
Absorption-costing systems, both normal and standard, generate production-volumevariances that also affect income.
-
Effects of Sales & Production on Reported IncomeProduction > SalesVariable costing income is lowerthan absorption income.Production < Sales Variable costing income is higher than absorption income.
-
Summary CommentsThe difference between income reported under these two methods is entirely due to the treatment of fixed manufacturing costsUnder absorption costing, these costs are treated as assets (inventory) until the associated goods are sold.
-
Learning ObjectiveConstruct absorption andcontribution format incomestatements and identify which is better for decision making.
-
Absorption ApproachThe absorption approach is a costing approach that considers all factory overhead (both variable and fixed) to be product (inventoriable) costs.Factory overhead becomes an expense in the form of manufacturing cost of goods sold only as sales occur.
-
Contribution ApproachIn contrast, the contribution approach is used by many companies for internal (management accounting) reporting.It emphasizes the distinction between variable and fixed costs.The contribution approach is not allowed for external financial reporting.

BABAR began operations on January 1, 2007, and produces a single product that sells for $9.00 per unit. BABAR uses an actual (historical) cost system. In 2007, 100,000 units were produced and 90,000 units were sold. There was no work-in-process inventory at December 31, 2007. Costs and expenses for 2007 were as followsFixed costsVariable costs Raw materials ---$1.75 per unit produced Direct labor --- 1.25 per unit produced Factory overhead $100,000 .50 per unit produced Selling and admin 70,000 .60 per unit soldWhat is the operating income for 2007 using the direct costing method?a. $181,000 b. $271,000 c. $281,000 d. $361,000
