Paper - 3A : Cost Accounting
Chapter - 1: Basic Concepts
2015 - May [5] (a)
Sunk Cost: Sunk costs are historical costs incurred in the past are knownas Sunk Costs. They play no role in decision making during the currentperiod. Sunk Costs are independent of any event that may occur in thefuture. e.g. in case of a decision related to the replacement of a machine, thewritten down value of the existing machine is a sunk cost and therefore, notconsidered.
Opportunity Cost: This cost refers to the value of sacrifice made or benefitof opportunity foregone in accepting an alternative course of action. Eg. the opportunity cost of going to college is the money you would haveearned if you worked instead, on the one hand, you lose four years of salarywhile getting your degree, on other hand, you hope to earn more during yourcareer, thanks to your education to offset the lost wages.
2015 - May [7] (a)
Cost Centre: Y It is defined as a location, person, or an item of equipment (or group of
these) for which cost may be ascertained and used for the purpose ofcost control. It is a part of an organization that does not produce directprofits and adds to the cost of running a company. Eg. R&D, marketing departments, help desk and customer services.
Cost Centre are of two types:
1

(i) Personal(ii) Impersonal
Y A personal cost centre consists of a person and an impersonal CostCentre of a location or item of equipment.
Y In a manufacturing concern there are two main types of cost centre, asbelow:
1. Production Cost Centre: It is cost centre where raw material ishandled for conversion into finished product. Here both direct &indirect expenses are incurred. Machine shops, welding shops andassembly shops are examples of production Cost Centre.
2. Service Cost Centre: It is Cost Centre which serves as an ancillaryunit to a production cost centre. Power house, gas production shop,material service centres, and plant maintenance centres areexamples of service Cost Centre.
3. Profit Centre: Centres, which have the responsibility of generatingand maximizing profits are called profit centres. The profit centre’srevenues and expenses are kept separate from the main company’sprofit in order to maintain the profit centre’s profitability.
4. Investment Centres: Investment centres are similar to profit centresbut they have additional decision rights in terms of capitalexpenditure & investment. The manager is assumed to have betterknowledge of input & output markets but also investmentopportunities.

(ii) Calculation for Machine Hour Rate: 20 units per hour so in 48 hoursthere is 960 units & 80 paise per units is paid .So = 20 × 0.8 = 16
Machine hour rate = ` 16
Chapter - 5: Integrated & Non-Integrated Accounts2015 - May [7] (b) Benefits of Integrated Accounting: Y Since there is one set of accounts, thus there is one figure of profit.
Hence, the question of reconciliation of cost profit and financial profitdoes not arise.
Y Efforts in duplicate recording of entries and to maintain separate set ofbooks are saved. Thus, there is saving of time & labour.
Y The operation of the system is facilitated with the use of mechanizedaccounting.
Y Costing data are available from books of original entry and hence, noday is caused in obtaining information.
Y Combination of two sets of books and centralization of accountingfunction results in economy.
Y Complete analysis of cost and sales is kept. Y Complete details of all receipts and payments in cash are kept.
Y Complete details of all assets and liabilities are kept and this systemdoes not use notional account to represent impersonal accounts.

Y Since financial books are subject to a rigorous accuracy, checkingintegrated accounts ensures similar checks for cost account.
Chapter - 8: Contract Costing
2015 - May [5] (b) Escalation Clause: This clause is often provided incontracts to cover any likely changes in the prize or utilization of materialsand labour. Thus, a contractor is entitled to suitably enhance the contractprice the cost raises beyond a given percentage. The object of this clause isto safeguard the interest of the contractor against unfavorable changes incost. The escalation clause is of particular importance where prices ofmaterial and labour are anticipated to increase or where quantity of materialand labour time cannot be accurately estimated.

Conflicts in Profit Versus Wealth Maximization:
C In favour of Wealth Maximization Y Wealth Maximization helps to achieve a higher growth rate. Y It helps to attain a large market share. Y It gains leadership in the market in terms of products & technology. Y It promotes employee welfare. Y It helps to increase customer satisfaction.
C In against of Wealth Maximization Y It is prescriptive idea. Y it is not necessarily socially desirable. Y There is some controversy as to whether the objective is to
maximize stakeholders wealth or the wealth of the firm whichincludes other financial claims holders such as debenture holders,preference shareholders etc.
Y The objective of wealth maximization may also difficulties whenownership and management are separated as is the case in most ofthe large corporate form of organizations.
Chapter - 2: Time Value of Money
2015 - May [7] (e)
Present Value:Y The present value of a sum of money to be received at a future date is
determined by discounting the future value at the interest rate that themoney could earn over the period. This process is known as discounting.
PO = or PO = Fun (1 + i)-n
Where, Fun = Future value n years hence i = Rate of interest per annum n = Number of years for which discounting is done.

Underthis agreement, the asset is not physically exchanged but it all happen inrecords only. The main advantage of this method is that the lessee cansatisfy himself completely regarding the quality of an asset and afterpossession of the asset convert the sale into a lease agreement.

2015 - May [5] (d) Miller-Orr Cash Management model: According to thismodel, the net cash flow is completely stochastic. When changes in cashbalance occur randomly the application of control theory serves a usefulpurpose. The miller-orr model is one of such control limit models. This modelis designed to determine the time & size of transfers between an investmentaccount and cash account. In this model, limits are set for cash balances. These limits may consists ofh as upper limit, z as the return point and zero as lower limit. When cashbalance reaches the upper limit the transfer of cash equal to h, is investedin marketable securities account. When it touches the lower limit, a transferfrom marketable securities account to cash account is made.During the period when cash balance says between h and o i.e. high and lowlimits of cash balance are set up on the basis of fixed cost associated withthe securities transaction, the opportunity cost of holding cash and degreeof likely fluctuations in cash balance. This limits satisfy the demands for cashat the lower possible total costs.
Theory: This model operates as under:(a) Cash outflows are not uniform during the year.(b) Upper and lower limits can be fixed for cash balances, as outflows do
not exceed a certain limit on any day. These limits are determined basedon fixed transaction costs, interest foregone on marketable securitiesand degree of likely fluctuations in cash balances.
(c) When cash balance reaches the upper limit, Surplus cash is invested inmarketable securities, to bring down the cash balance to the averagelimit or return point.
(d) When cash balance touches the lower limit, investments are disposedoff so that cash balances goes upto the average limit or return point.
(e) During the period when cash balance stays between high & low limits,there are no transactions between cash & marketable securities.

2015 - May [7] (c) Differentiate between Factoring & Bill discounting.
Factoring: Factoring refers to the giving the bill to other as a security thatmoney is payable on due date. The organization can get finance by factoringbill from the parties.
Bill discounting: Y Bill discounting refers to the bill given to the bank & bank than gives the
finance of that bill. Y This is used where there is urgent need of funds.
