  2. Hmm! Comparingstatic budgets withactual costs is likecomparing applesand oranges. Let’s look at CheeseCo. Static Budgets and Performance Reports Static budgets are prepared for a single, planned levelof activity. Performance evaluation is difficult when actual activity differs from the planned level of activity.

  3. Static Budgets and Performance Reports CheeseCo Static Actual Budget Results Variances Machine hours 10,000 8,000 Variable costs Indirect labor $ 40,000 $ 34,000 Indirect materials 30,000 25,500 Power 5,000 3,800 Fixed costs Depreciation 12,000 12,000 Insurance 2,000 2,050 Total overhead costs $ 89,000 $ 77,350

  4. U = Unfavorable variance CheeseCo was unable to achieve the budgeted level of activity. Static Budgets and Performance Reports CheeseCo Static Actual Budget Results Variances Machine hours 10,000 8,000 2,000 U Variable costs Indirect labor $ 40,000 $ 34,000 Indirect materials 30,000 25,500 Power 5,000 3,800 Fixed costs Depreciation 12,000 12,000 Insurance 2,000 2,050 Total overhead costs $ 89,000 $ 77,350

  5. Static Actual Budget Results Variances Machine hours 10,000 8,000 2,000 U Variable costs F = Favorable variance Actual cost is less than budgeted cost. Indirect labor $ 40,000 $ 34,000 $6,000 F Indirect materials 30,000 25,500 Power 5,000 3,800 Fixed costs Depreciation 12,000 12,000 Insurance 2,000 2,050 Total overhead costs $ 89,000 $ 77,350 Static Budgets and Performance Reports CheeseCo

  6. Static Actual Budget Results Variances Machine hours 10,000 8,000 2,000 U Variable costs Indirect labor $ 40,000 $ 34,000 $6,000 F Indirect materials 30,000 25,500 4,500 F Power 5,000 3,800 1,200 F Fixed costs Depreciation 12,000 12,000 0 Insurance 2,000 2,050 50 U $11,650 F Total overhead costs $ 89,000 $ 77,350 Static Budgets and Performance Reports CheeseCo

  7. Static Actual Budget Results Variances Machine hours 10,000 8,000 2,000 U Variable costs Ind irect labor $ 40,000 $ 34,000 $6,000 F Indirect materials 30,000 25,500 4,500 F Power 5,000 3,800 1,200 F Fixed costs Depreciation 12,000 12,000 0 Insurance 2,000 2,050 50 U $11,650 F Total overhead costs $ 89,000 $ 77,350 Static Budgets and Performance Reports CheeseCo Since cost variances are favorable, havewe done a good job controlling costs?

  8. Actual activity is belowbudgeted activity. So, shouldn’t variable costsbe lower if actual activityis lower? Static Budgets and Performance Reports I don’t think Ican answer thequestion usinga static budget.

  9. Static Budgets and Performance Reports • The relevant question is . . . “How much of the favorable cost variance isdue to lower activity, and how much is due to good cost control?” • To answer the question,we mustthe budget to theactual level of activity.

  10. Show revenues and expensesthat should have occurred at theactual level of activity. May be prepared for any activity level in the relevant range. Reveal variances due to good cost control or lack of cost control. Improve performance evaluation. Flexible Budgets

  11. Flexible Budgets Central Concept If you can tell me what your activity wasfor the period, I will tell you what your costs and revenue should have been.

  12. Preparing a Flexible Budget To a budget we need to know that: • Total variablecosts changein direct proportion to changes in activity. • Total fixedcosts remainunchanged within therelevant range. Variable Fixed

  13. Preparing a Flexible Budget Let’s prepare budgets for CheeseCo.

  25. Flexible BudgetPerformance Report Remember the question: “How much of the total variance is due to activityand how much is due tocost control?”

  26. Static Actual Budget Results Variances Machine hours 10,000 8,000 2,000 U Variable costs Ind irect labor $ 40,000 $ 34,000 $6,000 F Indirect materials 30,000 25,500 4,500 F Power 5,000 3,800 1,200 F Fixed costs Depreciation 12,000 12,000 0 Insurance 2,000 2,050 50 U $11,650 F Total overhead costs $ 89,000 $ 77,350 Static Budgets and Performance How much of the $11,650 is due to activity and how much is due to cost control?

  27. Flexible BudgetPerformance Report Overhead Variance Analysis Let’s place the flexible budget for 8,000 hours here. Difference between original static budgetand actual overhead = $11,650 F.

  28. Flexible BudgetPerformance Report Overhead Variance Analysis Activity Cost control This $15,000F variance is due to lower activity. This $3,350U flexiblebudget variance is dueto poor cost control.

  29. There are two primaryreasons for unfavorablevariable overhead variances: 1.Spendingtoo much for resources. 2. Using the resources inefficiently. What causesthe costcontrol variance? Flexible BudgetPerformance Report

  30. Overhead Rates and Overhead Analysis Recall that overhead costs are assigned to products and services using a predetermined overhead rate (POHR): Assigned Overhead = POHR × Standard Activity Overhead from theflexible budget for thedenominator level of activity POHR = Denominator level of activity

  31. Overhead Rates and Overhead Analysis – Example Let’s look at overhead rates in abudget for ColaCo.

  32. Overhead Rates and Overhead Analysis – Example ColaCo prepared this budget for overhead: Total Variable Total Fixed Machine Variable Overhead Fixed Overhead Hours Overhead Rate Overhead Rate 2,000 $ 4,000 ? $ 9,000 ? 4,000 8,000 ? 9,000 ? Let’s calculate overhead rates. ColaCo applies overhead basedon machine hour activity.

  33. Total Variable Total Fixed Machine Variable Overhead Fixed Overhead Hours Overhead Rate Overhead Rate 2,000 $ 4,000 $ 2.00 $ 9,000 ? 4,000 8,000 2.00 9,000 ? Overhead Rates and Overhead Analysis – Example ColaCo prepared this budget for overhead: Rate = TotalVariable Overhead ÷ Machine Hours This rate is constant at all levels of activity.

  34. Total Variable Total Fixed Machine Variable Overhead Fixed Overhead Hours Overhead Rate Overhead Rate 2,000 $ 4,000 $ 2.00 $ 9,000 $ 4.50 4,000 8,000 2.00 9,000 2.25 Overhead Rates and Overhead Analysis – Example ColaCo prepared this budget for overhead: Rate = TotalFixedOverhead ÷ Machine Hours This rate decreases when activity increases.

  35. Total Variable Total Fixed Machine Variable Overhead Fixed Overhead Hours Overhead Rate Overhead Rate 2,000 $ 4,000 $ 2.00 $ 9,000 $ 4.50 4,000 8,000 2.00 9,000 2.25 The total POHR is the sum ofthe fixed and variable ratesfor a given activity level. Overhead Rates and Overhead Analysis – Example ColaCo prepared this budget for overhead:

  36. Overhead Variances Let’s use the overhead rates, to determine variable and fixed overhead variances.

  37. Variable Overhead Variances – Example ColaCo’s actual production for the period required 3,200 standard machine hours. Actual variable overhead incurred for the period was $6,740. Actual machine hours worked were 3,300. Compute the variable overhead spending and efficiency variances.

  40. Quick Check  Yoder Enterprises’ actual production for the period required 2,100 standard direct labor hours. Actual variable overhead for the period was $10,950. Actual direct labor hours worked were 2,050. The predetermined variable overhead rate is $5 per direct labor hour. What was the spending variance? a. $450 U b. $450 F c. $700 F d. $700 U

Fixed Overhead Rate FR = $9,000 ÷ 3,000 machine hours FR = $3.00 per machine hour
