Process Activity Types Labor hours, Machine hours, Square footage

Terminal Learning Objective Action: Process Activity Types Conditions: You are a Budget Analyst with access to a computer, the GFEBS training database, applicable GFEBS references, and awareness of Operational Environment (OE) variables and actors Standards: With a minimum 80% accuracy learners must demonstrate proficiency with: Communicate Activity Type Concepts 2

Activity Types and Rates What are Activity Types and how are they used? Cost Objects represent a group of resources within a cost center consumed in the production of products and services provided by an organization Activity Type is a cost object that represents a group of resources within a Cost Center that is measurable in units such as: labor or machine hours, square footage, exercises completed or other quantitative unit. Used to plan, allocate, and control costs for quantity-based allocations. Used to reassign activity costs to cost objects Each Cost Center in the GFEBS solution has zero, one, or many Activity Types assigned. Activity Type Rates can either be set manually or calculated internally. 3

Activity Type Concepts Plan, Allocate and Control Costs 1 Many Cost Center Capacity and Unit of Measure Consumed Used to Produce Products/ Services Prices – Set prior to an organization coming onto GFEBS or during cost planning Product or Service X Price/Activity Type 4

Activity Type Concepts (Cont.) Activity Type Example Cost Center Activity Type People e.g. RMO Manager & Analyst Blended e.g. Motor Pool Mechanic & Vehicle 5

Activity Type Concepts (Cont.) Activity Types are a new concept to the Army They are considered cost drivers Example: Labor cost, when personnel are working on more then one task and each task must be charged for the hours and rate performed. Activity types will allow for calculating each rate and charging to appropriate organization and assigning (driving, allocating) cost to the designated cost object. 6

GFEBS Cost Objects v. Legacy Data Elements 7

Activity Types & Allocation Description Value Base Allocation Involves Allocating Actual Dollar Amounts Quantity-Based Allocation Involves Allocating a Quantity (e.g., hours) Activity Types are the Cost Objects used to classify these different activities, and therefore Activity Types are strictly used for Activity Allocation purposes. 8

Criteria for Establishing and Changing One Activity should be created in the GFEBS solution for every different type of activity that is produced by one Cost Center in support of another Cost Center within the organization. Example: Mechanics who repair heating and air conditioning units would have an Activity Type. - Hourly rates can then be assigned to these Activity Types and used to allocate costs from sender Cost Center (in this example the Mechanic’s Cost Center) to receiver Cost Centers based on the amount of activity performed. 9

Criteria for Establishing and Changing (Cont.) During Activity Allocation the quantity of hours will be multiplied by the Activity Type rate to determine the amount of cost to be allocated. Activity Types are used to track standard rates for labor types, materials, overhead, and other measurable outputs. Centralized versus Decentralized Element Control: Activity Types standardized across installation establishment will be centralized. Nonstandard Activity Types will be decentralized. 10

Conduct Practical Exercises 12 12

T-Code: KL01 Conduct Practical Exercise 14.1 Walkthrough: Create Activity Type T-Code: KL01 Conduct Practical Exercise 14.1 Use this procedure to create an Activity Type. An Activity Type is a cost object that represents a group of resources within a Cost Center. These resource groups have capacity and unit of measure such as: Labor hours, Machine hours, Square Footage, etc. Activity Types are consumed and utilized to produce the products and services of the organization. Use this procedure to improve the utility/accuracy of cost information by adding more detail/specificity (e.g., Replacing a single activity type for “electrician, journeyman electrician” and senior electrician”) or when new Resources are added to the organization that do not fit into existing Activity Types (e.g., new, unique piece of test Equipment that needs to be costed differently than other pieces of equipment). 13

T-Code: KL02 Conduct Practical Exercise 14.2 Walkthrough: Change Activity Type T-Code: KL02 Conduct Practical Exercise 14.2 Use this procedure to change an Activity Type. An Activity Type is a cost object that represents a group of resources within a Cost Center. These resource groups have capacity and unit of measure such as: Labor hours, Machine hours, Square Footage, etc. Activity Types are consumed and utilized to produce the products and services of the organization. Use this procedure to improve the utility/accuracy of cost information by adding more detail/specificity (e.g., Replacing a single activity type for “electrician, journeyman electrician” and senior electrician”) or when new Resources are added to the organization that do not fit into existing Activity Types (e.g., new, unique piece of test Equipment that needs to be cost differently than other pieces of equipment). 14

LSA #1 Check on Learning Q1: ___ ___ ___ involve allocating actual dollar amounts. A1: Q2: ___ ___ ___ is an allocation method where activity quantities are known and allocated based on a rate defined for the activity type (Quantity Based). A2: Q3: T/F: Activity Types are consumed and used to produce the products and services of the organization? A3:   Q1 ___ ___ ___ involve allocating actual dollar amounts? A: Q: ___ ___ ___ is an allocation method where activity quantities are known and allocated based on a rate defined for the activity type (Quantity Based). Q: T/F: Activity Types are consumed and used to produce the products and services of the organization? NOTE: Additional questions for the students; Q: What are Activity Types used for? Q: When should Activity Types be created in GFEBS? Q: How are Activity Type rates set? Q: ______________involve allocating a quantity which is usually hours of some type of activity? 15
