  1. Flexible Budgets, Variances,and Management Control: II Chapter 8

  2. Learning Objective 1 Explain in what ways the planning of variable overhead costs and fixed overhead costs are similar and in what ways they differ.

  3. Planning of Variable andFixed Overhead Costs Effective planning of variable overhead costs involves undertaking only those variable overhead activities that add value for customers using the product or service. The key challenge with planning fixed overhead is choosing the appropriate level of capacity or investment that will benefit the company over an extended time period.

  4. Learning Objective 2 Identify the features of a standard-costing system.

  5. Standard Costing Direct Cost Cost Object Standard cost per input unit Standard input allowed for one output unit ×

  6. Developing Budgeted VariableOverhead Allocation Rates Step 1: Choose the time period used to compute the budget. Pasadena Co. uses a twelve-month budget period. Step 2: Select the cost-allocation base. Pasadena budgets 26,000 labor-hours for a budgeted output of 13,000 suits in year 2004.

  7. Developing Budgeted VariableOverhead Allocation Rates Step 3: Identify the variable overhead costs. Pasadena’s budgeted variable manufacturing costs for 2004 are $312,000. Step 4: Compute the rate per unit of each cost-allocation base. $312,000 ÷ 26,000 hours = $12/hour

  8. Developing Budgeted VariableOverhead Allocation Rates What is the budgeted variable overhead cost rate per output unit (dress suit)? 2.00 hours allowed per output unit × $12 budgeted variable overhead cost rate per input unit = $24 per suit (output unit)

  9. Learning Objective 3 Compute the variable overhead efficiency variance and the variable overhead spending variance.

  10. Variable OverheadCost Variances The following data are for 2004 when Pasadena produced and sold 10,000 suits: Output units: 10,000 Labor-hours: Actual results: 21,500 Flexible-budget amount: 20,000

  11. Variable OverheadCost Variances Labor-hours per output unit: Actual results: 21,500 ÷ 10,000 = 2.15 Flexible-budget amount: 20,000 ÷ 10,000 = 2.00 Variable manufacturing overhead costs: Actual results: $244,775 Flexible-budget amount: $240,000

  12. Variable OverheadCost Variances Variable manufacturing overhead cost per labor-hour: Actual results: $244,775 ÷ 21,500 = $11.3849 Flexible-budget amount: $240,000 ÷ 20,000 = $12.00

  13. Variable OverheadCost Variances Variable manufacturing overhead cost per output unit: Actual results: $244,775 ÷ 10,000 = $24.4775 Flexible-budget amount: $240,000 ÷ 10,000 = $24.00

  14. Flexible-Budget Analysis The variable overhead flexible-budget variance measures the difference between the actual variable overhead costs and the flexible-budget variable overhead costs. Actual results: $244,775 – Flexible-budget amount $240,000 = $4,775 U

  15. Flexible-Budget Analysis Actual Costs Incurred 21,500 × $11.3849 = $244,775 Budgeted Inputs Allowed for Actual Outputs at Budgeted Rate 20,000 × $12.00 = $240,000 $4,775 U Flexible-budget variance

  16. Flexible-Budget Analysis Actual Quantity of Inputs at Budgeted Rate 21,500 × $12.00 = $258,000 Budgeted Inputs Allowed for Actual Outputs at Budgeted Rate 20,000 × $12.00 = $240,000 $18,000 U Variable overhead efficiency variance

  17. Flexible-Budget Analysis Actual Costs Incurred 21,500 × $11.3849 = $244,775 Actual Quantity of Inputs at Budgeted Rate 21,500 × $12.00 = $258,000 $13,225 F Variable overhead spending variance

  18. Variable Overhead Variances Flexible-budget variance $4,775 U Efficiency variance $18,000 U Spending variance $13,225 F

  19. Learning Objective 4 Explain how the efficiency variance for a variable indirect-cost item differs from the efficiency variance for a direct-cost item.

  20. Efficiency Variance In the Pasadena Co.’s example, the 21,500 actual direct manufacturing labor-hours are 7.5% greater than the flexible-budget amount of 20,000 direct manufacturing labor-hours. (21,500 – 20,000) ÷ 20,000 = 7.5% Actual variable overhead costs of $244,775 are only 2% greater than the flexible-budget amount of $240,000.

  21. Efficiency Variance Because actual variable overhead costs increase less than labor-hours, the actual variable overhead cost per labor-hour ($11.3849) is lower than the budgeted amount ($12.00). The key cause for Pasadena’s unfavorable efficiency variance is the higher-than-budgeted labor-hours used.

  22. Learning Objective 5 Compute a budgeted fixed overhead cost rate.

  23. Developing Budgeted FixedOverhead Allocation Rates Step 1: Choose the time period used to compute the budget. The budget period is typically twelve months. Step 2: Select the cost-allocation base. Pasadena budgets 26,000 labor-hours for a budgeted output of 13,000 suits in year 2004.

  24. Developing Budgeted FixedOverhead Allocation Rates Step 3: Identify the fixed overhead costs. Pasadena’s fixed manufacturing budget for 2004 is $286,000. Step 4: Compute the rate per unit of each cost-allocation base. $286,000 ÷ 26,000 = $11

  25. Developing Budgeted FixedOverhead Allocation Rates What is the budgeted fixed overhead cost rate per output unit (dress suit)? 2.00 hours allowed per output unit × $11 budgeted fixed overhead cost rate per input unit = $22 per suit (output unit)

  26. Flexible-Budget Variance Actual Costs Incurred $300,000 Flexible Budget: Budgeted Fixed Overhead $286,000 – $14,000 U Fixed overhead spending variance Fixed overhead flexible-budget variance

  27. Production-Volume Variance Flexible Budget: Budgeted Fixed Overhead $286,000 Fixed Overhead Allocated Using Budgeted Input Allowed for Actual Output Units Produced $220,000 – $66,000 U Production-volume variance 10,000 × 2.00 × $11 = $220,000

  28. Fixed Overhead Variances Fixed overhead variance $80,000 U Volume variance $66,000 U Spending variance $14,000 U

  29. Learning Objective 6 Explain two concerns when interpreting the production-volume variance as a measure of the economic cost of unused capacity.

  30. Interpreting the Production-Volume Variance Management may have maintained some extra capacity. Production volume variance focuses only on costs. This variance results from “unitizing” fixed costs.

  31. Interpreting the Production-Volume Variance Had Pasadena manufactured 13,000 suits instead of 10,000, allocated fixed overhead would have been = $286,000 (13,000 × 2.00 × $11). No production-volume variance would have occurred.

  32. Learning Objective 7 Show how the 4-variance analysis approach reconciles the actual overhead incurred with the overhead amounts allocated during the period.

  33. Integrated Analysis A 4-variance analysis presents spending and efficiency variances for variable overhead costs and spending and production-volume variances for fixed overhead costs. Managers can reconcile the actual overhead costs with the overhead amounts allocated during the period.

  34. Integrated Analysis Actual variable overhead costs incurred $244,775 Flexible budget: budgeted inputs allowed × budgeted rate $240,000 – Flexible-budget variance $4,775 U Underallocated variable overhead

  35. Integrated Analysis Actual variable overhead costs incurred $244,775 Actual inputs × budgeted rate $258,000 – Variable overhead spending variance $13,225 F

  36. Integrated Analysis Actual inputs × budgeted rate $258,000 Flexible budget: budgeted inputs allowed × budgeted rate $240,000 – Variable overhead efficiency variance $18,000 U

  37. Integrated Analysis Actual fixed overhead costs incurred $300,000 Budgeted fixed overhead costs $286,000 – Fixed overhead spending variance $14,000 U

  38. Integrated Analysis Budgeted fixed overhead costs $286,000 Budgeted inputs allowed × budgeted rate $220,000 – Volume variance $66,000 U

  39. Actual manufacturing overhead incurred: Variable manufacturing overhead $244,775 Fixed manufacturing overhead 300,000 Total $544,775 Overhead allocated: Variable manufacturing overhead $240,000 Fixed manufacturing overhead 220,000 Total $460,000 Amount underallocated $ 84,775 Integrated Analysis

  40. 4-Variance Analysis: Variable manufacturing overhead: Spending variance $13,225 F Efficiency variance 18,000 U Fixed manufacturing overhead: Spending variance 14,000 U Volume variance 66,000 U Total $84,775 U Integrated Analysis

  41. 3-Variance Analysis Variableandfixed manufacturing overhead: Spending variance $13,225 F + $14,000 U = $ 775 U Variable manufacturing overhead: Efficiency variance 18,000 U Fixed manufacturing overhead: Volume variance 66,000 U Total $84,775 U Integrated Analysis

  42. 2-Variance Analysis Variable and fixed manufacturing overhead: Spending variance $ 775 U Variable manufacturing overhead: Efficiency variance 18,000 U Flexible-budget variance: $18,775 U Fixed manufacturing overhead Volume variance: 66,000 U Total $84,775 U Integrated Analysis

  43. Different Purposes of Overhead Cost Analysis The greater the number of output units manufactured, the higher the budgeted total variable manufacturing overhead costs and the higher the total variable manufacturing overhead costs allocated to output units.

  44. Different Purposes of Overhead Cost Analysis Every output unit that Pasadena manufactures will increase the fixed overhead allocated to products by $22. Managers should not use this unitization of fixed manufacturing overhead costs for planning and control.
