9. Time Coverage of Budgets
Budgets typically have a set time
period (month, quarter, year).
This time period can itself be broken
into subperiods.
The most frequently used budget
period is one year.
Businesses are increasingly using
rolling budgets.

10. Prepare the operating budget and its supporting schedules.
Learning Objective 3
Prepare the operating budget
and its supporting schedules.

11. Operating Budget Example
Hawaii Diving expects 1,100 units to be sold
during the month of August 2004.
Selling price is expected to be $240 per unit.
How much are budgeted revenues for the month?
1,100 × $240 = $264,000

12. Operating Budget Example
Two pounds of direct materials are budgeted per
unit at a cost of $2.00 per pound, $4.00 per unit.
Three direct labor-hours are budgeted per unit
at $7.00 per hour, $21.00 per unit.
Variable overhead is budgeted at $8.00
per direct labor-hour, $24.00 per unit.
Fixed overhead is budgeted at $5,400 per month.

13. Operating Budget Example
Variable nonmanufacturing costs are
expected to be $0.14 per revenue dollar.
Fixed nonmanufacturing costs are
$7,800 per month.

14. Production Budget Example
Budgeted sales (units) +
Target ending finished goods inventory (units) –
Beginning finished goods inventory (units) =
Budgeted production (units)

15. Production Budget Example
Assume that target ending finished goods
inventory is 80 units.
Beginning finished goods inventory is 100 units.
How many units need to be produced?

16. Production Budget Example
Hawaii Diving Production Budget
for the Month of August 2004
Units required for sales 1,100
Add ending inv. of finished units
Total finished units required 1,180
Less beg. inv. of finished units
Units to be produced ,080

17. Direct Materials Usage Budget
Each finished unit requires 2 pounds of direct
materials at a cost of $2.00 per pound.
Desired ending inventory equals 15% of the
materials required to produce next month’s sales.
September sales are forecasted to be 1,600 units.
What is the ending inventory in August?
480 pounds

18. Direct Materials Usage Budget
September sales: 1,600 × 2 pounds per unit
= 3,200 pounds
3,200 × 15% = 480 pounds
(the desired ending inventory)
What is the beginning inventory in August?
1,100 units × 2 × 15% = 330 units

19. Direct Materials Usage Budget
How many pounds are needed to produce
1,080 units in August?
1,080 × 2 = 2,160 pounds

20. Material Purchases Budget
Hawaii Diving Direct Material Purchases Budget for the Month of August 2004

Total $54
*$5,400 ÷ 1,080 = $5

25. Ending Inventory Budget
What is the cost of the target
ending inventory for materials?
480 × $2 = $960
What is the cost of the target
finished goods inventory?
80 × $54 = $4,320

26. Cost of Goods Sold Budget
Direct materials used:
2,160 × $ $ 4,320
Direct labor ,680
Total overhead ,320
Cost of goods manufactured $58,320

27. Cost of Goods Sold Budget
Assume that the beginning finished
goods inventory is $5,400.
Ending finished goods inventory is $4,320.
What is the cost of goods sold?

28. Cost of Goods Sold Budget
Beginning finished goods inventory $ 5,400
+ Cost of goods manufactured $58,320
= Goods available for sale $63,720
– Ending finished goods inventory $ 4,320
= Cost of goods sold $59,400

37. Explain kaizen budgeting
Learning Objective 5
Explain kaizen budgeting
and how it is used for
cost management.

38. What is Kaizen? The Japanese use the term “kaizen”
for continuous improvement.
Kaizen budgeting is an approach that
explicitly incorporates continuous
improvement during the budget
period into the budget numbers.

39. Kaizen Budgeting
It was previously estimated that it should take 3 labor-hours for Hawaii Diving to manufacture its product.
A kaizen budgeting approach would
incorporate future improvements.

40. Kaizen Budgeting Budgeted Hours/Item January – March 2004 3.00
April – June
July – September
October – December

41. Prepare an activity-based
Learning Objective 6
Prepare an activity-based
budget.

42. Activity-Based Budgeting
Activity-based costing reports and analyzes past and current costs.
Activity-based budgeting (ABB) focuses
on the budgeted cost of activities necessary
to produce and sell products and services.

43. Activity-Based Budgeting
Product A Product B
Units produced:
Labor-hours per unit:
Budgeted setup-hours:
Total budgeted machine setup related cost is
$25,920 per month.

44. Activity-Based Budgeting
Total budgeted labor-hours are:
Product A: 880 × 3 2,640
Product B: 200 ×
Total ,240
What is the allocation rate per labor-hour?
$25,920 ÷ 3,240 = $8.00

45. Activity-Based Budgeting
Total cost allocated to each product line:
Product A: $8.00 × 2,640 = $21,120
Product B: $8.00 × = $ 4,800

46. Activity-Based Budgeting
Under ABB, the number of setups is the cost driver.
$25,920 budgeted machine setup cost
÷ 10 budgeted machine setup-hours
= $2,592 allocation rate per machine setup-hour.
How much machine setup related costs are
allocated to each product line?

47. Activity-Based Budgeting
Product A Product B
$2,592 × 5 $12,960
Setup-related cost per unit:
Product A: $12,960 ÷ 880 $14.73
Product B: $12,960 ÷ 200 $64.80
