Understand Quality Costs• Understand quality costs enables you to
– Understand hidden costs– Reduce and eliminate unnecessary cost
• Prevent problems from happening• Management responsibility to enable this
• Quality costs are real and estimated at:– 25% of costs in manufacturing– 35% of costs in service industry
• Quality costs can be categorised to enable better understanding

Why calculate Quality CostWhy calculate Quality Cost
Management will give special attention when quality is measured in monetary terms
Quality costing is one of the tools◦ to provide initial assessments and hard evidence that
improvement is needed or had been made◦ To monitor the effectiveness of quality improvement
initiatives◦ To be used in a generic term by senior management,
shareholders and financial institutions, so that they can readily understand implication of quality in the term of money
◦ Cost of quality failure is calculated as a percentage of profit or annual turnover
◦ It is easy to understand
By front-line operator By middle management

Benefits of using quality costingBenefits of using quality costing
Greater accuracy in the evaluation and forecasting of resource use
Justification for investment in the prevention and appraisal of failures
Ability to cost and compare performance across all departments functions and activities
Identification and prioritization of activities, processes and departments in terms of corrective action, investment, or quality improvement initiatives

COST OF QUALITYCOST OF QUALITYQuality costs are defined as costs associated with
non-achievement of product/service quality. In simple terms, quality cost is the cost of poor products/services.
The cost of poor quality can add to other costs such as design, production, maintenance, inspection, sales, etc. Quality costs cross department boundaries by involving all activities of the organization – marketing, purchasing, design, manufacturing, service, etc.
The price of nonconformance (Philip Crosby) or the cost of poor quality (Joseph Juran), the term 'Cost of Quality', refers to the costs associated with providing poor quality product or service.

• Phillip B. Crosby (Quality is free . . . ):
• The system for causing quality is prevention, not appraisal – Quality is Free
• The performance standard must be Zero Defects, not "that's close enough"
• The measurement of quality is the Price of Non-conformance.
• Cost of quality is only the measure of operational performance
• “Quality is free. It’s not a gift, but it is free. What costs money are the unquality things -- all the actions that involve not doing jobs right the first time.”
Founders Point of View

Customers will seek out the highest quality
product.
Customers will seek out the highest quality
product.
Improved quality that exceeds customer expectations will
generate more revenues that exceed the cost of quality.
Improved quality that exceeds customer expectations will
generate more revenues thatexceed the cost of quality.
Therefore, quality is
“free.”

Cost of Quality (Cost of Quality (other other version) version) 1. Like all things there is a price to pay for quality. This
total cost can be split into two fundamental areas: a. Non Conformance. This area covers the price paid by not
having quality systems or a quality product. Examples of this are: (1) Rework. Doing the job over again because it wasn't right the
first time. (2) Scrap. Throwing away the results of your work because it is not up
to the required standard. (3) Waiting. Time wasted whilst waiting for other people. (4) Down Time. Not being able to do your job because a machine is
broken. b. Conformance. Conformance is an aim of quality
assurance. This aim is achieved at a price. Examples of this are: (1) Documentation. Writing work instructions, technical instructions
and producing paperwork. (2) Training. On the job training, quality training, etc. (3) Auditing. Internal, external and extrinsic. (4) Planning. Prevention, do the right thing first time and poka yoke. (5) Inspection. Vehicles, equipment, buildings and people.

The 1:10:100 rule:The 1:10:100 rule: Re.1 spent on prevention will save Rs.10 spent on
appraisal and Rs.100 on failure costs.
One dollar spent on prevention will save $10 on appraisal and $100 on failure costs.
This rule helps one to prioritize expenditure on prevention, which is sure to bring in greater returns.
“The earlier you detect and prevent a defect the more you can save. If you catch a two cent resistor before you use it and throw it away, you lose two Cents. If you don’t find it until it has been soldered into a computer component, it may cost $10 to repair the part. If you don’t catch the component until it is in the computer user’s hands, the repair will cost hundreds of dollars. Indeed, if a $5000 computer has to be repaired in the field, the expense may exceed the manufacturing cost.”

Difficulties in using Quality costingDifficulties in using Quality costing
Management have not believed in the possibilities of improvement
Quality costing is demanding◦ It requires a lot of data of each activity related to quality
Other limitations
◦ Does not resolve quality problems◦ Does not provide specific actions◦ vulnerable to short-term mismanagement◦ difficult to match effort and accomplishment◦ subject to measurement errors◦ may neglect important or include inappropriate costs

Steps in implementing quality costSteps in implementing quality cost
1. Involve accountants right from the start2. Decide purpose and objectives3. Decide how to deal with overheads4. Distinguish between basic work and quality related
activities5. Collection data which offers the prospect of real gains6. Start by examining failure costs7. Evaluate the costs of inspection8. Analyze and use the data9. Collecting and reporting quality cost data

Preventing Poor Quality
• Would it not make sense to prevent poor quality products from happening?
• How can this be done?• Whose responsibility is this?
29Total Quality Management - Spring
2010 - IUG
How to Prevent Poor Quality
• Prepare to measure costs of quality – Determine categories of quality costs– Create measurement system that
captures categories of quality costs• Assign responsibility to collect data• Analyse collected data
30Total Quality Management - Spring
2010 - IUG
Determine Quality Cost Categories
• Understand your product • Understand your process• Understand where problems occur• Determine precisely what goes wrong• Determine what costs represents each
problem
31Total Quality Management - Spring
2010 - IUG
Creating Data Collection System
• Create measurement system – Attempt to harness existing financial
accounting system– Manipulate existing financial data– Collect costs as they occur
• Whatever you do ensure costs are accurate
32Total Quality Management - Spring
2010 - IUG
Assign Responsibility
• Make individuals at all levels responsible for collecting quality cost data:
– If quality cost data is required then make it the responsibility of the person who creates the cost to collect the data
• If no one is responsible no one will bother
33Total Quality Management - Spring
2010 - IUG
Analyse Collected Data• Data on its own is useless• You must have it analysed to be able to
extract meaning• Determine what knowledge you require• Develop an analysis system that provides
the knowledge you require
34Total Quality Management - Spring
2010 - IUG
Useful Quality Cost Knowledge
• What you need to know is useful• What you do not need to know is useless• Only ask for knowledge you need to know• Demand that knowledge is presented so
that it can be understood easily

Management is Responsible
• Management decides what to produce in terms of Products (goods and / or services)
• Management assigns responsibilities to produce products
• Management is accountable for effectively using resources to produce products

History of Activity-Based History of Activity-Based CostingCosting Term “activity-based costing” created in 1975 by Dr.
Robert Kaplan
Resulted from dissatisfaction with traditional accounting categories
Identifies activities as the fundamental cost object of an organization
Widely used in industries (e.g. FedEx, Texas Instruments…)

DefinitionsDefinitions
Activity Based Costing (ABC) is a methodology that measures the cost and performance of resources, activities and cost objects. Cost objects consume activities, and activities consume resources.
Activity Based Management (ABM) is the broad discipline that focuses on achieving customer value through the continuous management of activities. ABM draws on ABC cost information and performance measurement as a major (but not only) source of information.

The Link Between Quality and The Link Between Quality and ProductivityProductivityEffective quality improvement can be
instrumental in increasing productivity and reducing cost.
The cost of achieving quality improvements and increased productivity is often small.
