1 Absorption Costing Absorption costing is required under generally accepted accounting principles for financial statements distributed to external users.
4
1 Variable Costing For internal use in decision making, managers often use variable costing.
5
Assume that 15,000 units are manufactured and sold at a price $50.

1 Exhibit 1 Absorption Costing Income Statement
7
1 Contribution Margin Note in Exhibit 2 that the variable selling and administrative expenses are deducted from the manufacturing margin to yield the contribution margin.

Income from Operations When Units Manufactured Exceed Units Sold
1 Income from Operations When Units Manufactured Exceed Units Sold Assume that in the preceding example only 12,000 units of the 15,000 units manufactured were sold. Examine Exhibit 3 and you will see that income from operations using variable costing is $40,000 while absorption costing provides an income of $70,000.

1 Income from Operations When Units Manufactured Are Less than Units Sold Assume that 5,000 units of inventory were on hand at the beginning of a period, 10,000 units were manufactured during the period, and 15,000 units were sold at $50 per unit.

Frand Manufacturing Company
2 Frand Manufacturing Company Frand Manufacturing Company has no beginning inventory and sales are estimated to be 20,000 units at $75 per unit, regardless of production levels.

Frand Manufacturing Company
2 Frand Manufacturing Company Now, assume that Frand Manufacturing uses variable costing and has sales of 20,000 units. Exhibit 6 illustrates that net income remains a constant $200,000 at the three levels of production.

3 Describe management’s use of absorption and variable costing. 5-23

3 Pricing Products Many factors enter into determining the selling price of a product. However, the cost of making the product is significant in all pricing decisions. In the short run, fixed costs cannot be avoided.
25
3 Pricing Products In the long run, a company must set its selling price high enough to cover all costs and expenses (variable and fixed) and generate income.
26
Analyzing Market Segments
3 Analyzing Market Segments A market segment is a portion of a business that can be analyzed using sales, costs, and expenses to determine its profitability.
27
4 Use variable costing for analyzing market segments, including product, territories, and salespersons segments. 5-27

Sales Territory Profitability Analysis
4 Sales Territory Profitability Analysis Sales territory profitability analysis may lead management to: Reduce costs in lower-profit sales territories Increase sales efforts in higher-profit territories

Sales Territory Profitability Analysis
4 Sales Territory Profitability Analysis Contribution Margin Ratio Contribution Margin Sales = Northern territory: 43% ($34,400/$80,000) Southern territory: 50.5% ($40,400/$80,000)

36
5 Use variable costing for analyzing and explaining changes in contribution margin as a result of quantity and price factors. 5-36
37
Variable Cost Quantity Factor
5 Quantity factor is the effect of a difference in the number of units sold, assuming no change in unit sales price or unit cost. Sales Quantity Factor Actual Units Sold Planned Units of Sales Planned Sales Price = – × Variable Cost Quantity Factor Planned Units of Sales Actual Units Sold Planned Unit Cost = – ×
38
5 Unit price factor or unit cost factor is the effect of a difference in unit sales price or unit cost on the number of units sold. Unit Price Factor Actual Selling Price per Unit Planned Selling Price per Unit Actual Units Sold = – × Unit Cost Factor Planned Cost per Unit Actual Cost per Unit Actual Units Sold = – ×
