Chapter 8

2 Explain in what ways the planning of variable overhead
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 and Fixed 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.

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

6 Developing Budgeted Variable Overhead 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 Variable Overhead 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 Variable Overhead 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 Compute the variable overhead efficiency variance and
Learning Objective 3 Compute the variable overhead efficiency variance and the variable overhead spending variance.

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

11 Variable Overhead Cost 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 Overhead Cost Variances
Variable manufacturing overhead cost per labor-hour: Actual results: $244,775 ÷ 21,500 = $ Flexible-budget amount: $240,000 ÷ 20,000 = $12.00

13 Variable Overhead Cost Variances
Variable manufacturing overhead cost per output unit: Actual results: $244,775 ÷ 10,000 = $ 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 × $ = $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 × $ = $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 Explain how the efficiency variance for a variable indirect-cost item
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 ($ ) 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 fixed overhead cost rate.
Learning Objective 5 Compute a budgeted fixed overhead cost rate.

23 Developing Budgeted Fixed Overhead 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 Fixed Overhead 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 Fixed Overhead 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
$80,000 U Volume variance $66,000 U Spending variance $14,000 U

29 production-volume variance as a measure of the economic
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 analysis approach reconciles the actual overhead incurred
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.

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

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

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.

53 Activity-Based Costing and Variance Analysis
ABC systems classify costs of various activities into a cost hierarchy (output-unit level, batch level, product sustaining, and facility sustaining). The basic principles and concepts for variable and fixed manufacturing overhead costs can be extended to ABC systems.
