11-521-5 Cost Behavior Cost behavior is the manner in which a cost changes as a related activity changes. Understanding the behavior of a cost depends on the following: 1 1.Identifying the activities that cause the cost to change, called activity base (or activity driver). 2.Specifying the range of activity over which the changes in the cost are of interest. This range of activity is called the relevant range.
6
11-621-6 Variable Costs Variable costs are costs that vary in proportion to changes in the level of activity. 1

11-1621-16 Mixed Costs Mixed costs (sometimes called semivariable or semifixed costs) have characteristics of both a variable and a fixed cost. Over one range of activity, the total mixed cost may remain the same. Over another range of activity, the mixed cost may change in proportion to changes in level of activity. 1

11-1921-19 The high-low method is a cost estimation method that may be used for separating mixed costs into their fixed and variable components. High-Low Method 1
20
11-2021-20 First, select the highest and lowest levels of activity. Variable Cost per Unit = Difference in Total Cost Difference in Production Estimating Variable Cost Using High-Low ProductionTotal (Units) Cost June1,000$45,550 July1,50052,000 August2,10061,500 September1,80057,500 October75041,250 Actual costs incurred 1

22
11-2221-22 Difference in total cost 2,100 750 1,350 Then, fill in the formula for difference in production. ProductionTotal (Units) Cost June1,000$45,550 July1,50052,000 August2,10061,500 September1,80057,500 October75041,250 Variable Cost per Unit = Difference in Production $20,250 1,350 1 Estimating Variable Cost Using High-Low
23
11-2321-23 = $15 Variable cost per unit is $15 ProductionTotal (Units) Cost June1,000$45,550 July1,50052,000 August2,10061,500 September1,80057,500 October75041,250 Variable Cost per Unit = $20,250 1,350 1 Estimating Variable Cost Using High-Low
24
11-2421-24 The first step in determining fixed cost is to insert the variable cost of $15 into the following formula: Total Cost = ($15 × Units of Production) + Fixed Cost Estimating Fixed Cost Using High-Low Total Cost = (Variable Cost per Unit × Units of Production) + Fixed Cost 1
25
11-2521-25 Using the highest level of production, we insert the total cost and units produced in the formula. Total cost = ($15 × Units of Production) + Fixed Cost $61,500 2,100 units) ProductionTotal (Units) Cost June1,000$45,550 July1,50052,000 August2,10061,500 September1,80057,500 October75041,250 Total Cost = (Variable Cost per Unit × Units of Production) + Fixed Cost 1
26
11-2621-26 $61,500 = ($15 × 2,100 units) + Fixed cost $61,500 = $31,500 + Fixed cost $61,500 – $31,500 = Fixed cost $30,000 = Fixed cost If the lowest level had been chosen, the results of the formula would provide the same fixed cost of $30,000. 1
27
11-2721-27 With fixed costs and variable costs estimated at $30,000 and $15 per unit, a formula is in place to estimate production at any level. If the company is expected to produce 950 units in November, the estimated total overhead would be calculated as follows: Total Cost = (Variable Cost per Unit × Units of Production) + Fixed cost Total Cost = $15 (950) + $30,000 Total Cost = $44,250 1
28
11-2821-28 Example Exercise 21-1 High-Low Method 1 The manufacturing costs of Alex Industries for the first three months of the year are provided below: Using the high-low method, determine the (a) variable cost per unit, and (b) the total fixed cost.

11-3221-32 2 Compute the contribution margin, the contribution margin ratio, and the unit contribution margin.
33
11-3321-33 Cost-Volume-Profit Relationships Cost-volume-profit analysis is the examination of the relationships among selling prices, sales and production volume, costs, expenses, and profits. 2
34
11-3421-34 Some of the ways cost-volume-profit analysis may be used include the following: 1.Analyzing the effects of changes in selling prices on profits 2.Analyzing the effects of changes in costs on profits 3.Analyzing the effects of changes in volume on profits 4.Setting selling price (continued) 2
35
11-3521-35 5.Selecting the mix of products to sell 6.Choosing among marketing strategies 2
36
11-3621-36 The contribution margin is the excess of sales revenues over variable costs. It is especially useful because it provides insight into the profit potential of a company. Contribution Margin 2
37
11-3721-37 Contribution Margin Income Statement 2 Exhibit 4
38
11-3821-38 Contribution Margin Ratio The contribution margin ratio, sometimes called the profit-volume ratio, indicates the percentage of each sales dollar available to cover fixed costs and to provide income from operations. The contribution margin ratio is computed as follows: Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution Margin Sales 2
39
11-3921-39 Contribution Margin Ratio (in dollars) The contribution margin ratio is most useful when the increase or decrease in sales volume is measured in sales dollars. In this case, the following formula is used to determine change in income from operations. Change in Income from Operations Change in Sales Dollars × Contribution Margin Ratio = 2
40
11-4021-40 Contribution Margin Ratio 100% 60% Contribution Margin Ratio = 40% Contribution Margin Ratio = Sales – Variable Costs Sales $1,000,000 – $600,000 $1,000,000 Contribution Margin Ratio = 40% 30% 10% 2
41
11-4121-41 Unit Contribution Margin The unit contribution margin is also useful for analyzing the profit potential of proposed projects. The unit contribution margin is the sales price per unit less the variable cost per unit. 2
42
11-4221-42 Using Contribution Margin per Unit as a Shortcut Lambert Inc.’s sales could be increased by 15,000 units from 50,000 to 65,000 units. Lambert’s income from operations would increase by $120,000 (15,000 × $8) as shown below. Change in Income from Operations Changes in Sales Units × Unit Contribution Margin = Change in Income from Operations 15,000 × $8 = Change in Income from Operations $120,000 = 2

11-4621-46 Example Exercise 21-2 Contribution Margin 2 Molly Company sells 20,000 units at $12 per unit. Variable costs are $9 per unit, and fixed costs are $25,000. Determine the (a) contribution margin ratio, (b) unit contribution margin, and (c) income from operations. 21-46
47
11-4721-47 2 For Practice: PE 21-2A, PE 21-2B 21-47 Follow My Example 21-2 a. 25% = ($12 – $9)/$12 or ($240,000 – $180,000)/$240,000 b.$3 per unit = $12 – $9 c.Sales$240,000(20,000 × $12) Variable costs 180,000(20,000 × $9) Contribution margin$ 60,000[20,000 × ($12 – $9)] Fixed costs 25,000 Income from operations$ 35,000 Example Exercise 21-2 (continued)

11-4821-48 3 Determine the break- even point and sales necessary to achieve a target profit.
49
11-4921-49 Break-Even Point The break-even point is the level of operations at which a company’s revenues and expenses are equal. 3
50
11-5021-50 Baker Corporation’s fixed costs are estimated to be $90,000. The unit contribution margin is calculated as follows: Unit selling price$25 Unit variable cost 15 Unit contribution margin$10 3
51
11-5121-51 The break-even point (in units) is calculated using the following equation: Break-Even Sales (units) = Fixed Costs Unit Contribution Margin Break-Even Sales (units) = $90,000 $10 Break-Even Sales (units) = 9,000 units 3
52
11-5221-52 Proof of the Preceding Computation Income from operations is zero when 9,000 units are sold— hence, break-even is 9,000 units. 3
53
11-5321-53 The break-even point (in dollars) is calculated using the following equation: Break-Even Sales (dollars) = Fixed Costs Contribution Margin Ratio Break-Even Sales (dollars) = $225,000 $90,000.40 Break-Even Sales (dollars) = Unit Contribution Margin Unit Selling Price $10 $25 3

11-5821-58 Park Co. is evaluating a proposal to pay an additional 2% commission on sales to its salespeople (a variable cost) as an incentive to increase sales. Fixed costs are estimated at $840,000. The unit contribution margin before the additional 2% commission is determined below. Unit selling price$250 Unit variable cost 145 Unit contribution margin$105 3
59
11-5921-59 Without additional 2% commission: $250 – [$145 + ($250 × 2%)] = $100 Break-Even in Sales (units) = $840,000 $105 = 8,000 units With additional 2% commission: Break-Even in Sales (units) = $840,000 $100 = 8,400 units Break-Even in Sales (units) = Fixed Costs Unit Contribution Margin 3

64
11-6421-64 Example Exercise 18-2 3 Break-Even Point Example Exercise 21-3 21-64 For Practice: PE 21-3A, PE 21-3B Nicholas Enterprises sells a product for $60 per unit. The variable cost is $35 per unit, while fixed costs are $80,000. Determine the (a) break-even point in sales units, and (b) break-even point if the selling price were increased to $67 per unit. Follow My Example 21-3 a.3,200 units = $80,000/($60 – $35) b.2,500 units = $80,000/($67 – $35)
65
11-6521-65 Target Profit The sales volume required to earn a target profit is determined by modifying the break-even equation. Sales (units) = Fixed Costs + Target Profit Unit Contribution Margin 3
66
11-6621-66 Units Required for Target Profit Fixed costs are estimated at $200,000, and the desired profit is $100,000. Unit contribution margin is $30. Unit selling price$75 Unit variable cost 45 Unit contribution margin$30 Sales (units) = Fixed Costs + Target Profit Unit Contribution Margin $30 Sales (units) = 10,000 units $200,000 $100,000 3

69
11-6921-69 Example Exercise 18-2 3 Target Profit Example Exercise 21-4 21-69 For Practice: PE 21-4A, PE 21-4B Forest Company sells a product for $140 per unit. The variable cost is $60 per unit, and fixed costs are $240,000. Determine the (a) break-even point in sales units, and (b) break-even point in sales units if the company desires a target profit of $50,000. Follow My Example 21-4 a.3,000 units = $240,000/($140 – $60) b.3,625 units = ($240,000 + $50,000)/($140 – $60)

11-7021-70 4 Using a cost-volume-profit chart and a profit-volume chart, determine the break-even point and sales necessary to achieve a target profit.
71
11-7121-71 Cost-Volume-Profit (Break-Even) Chart A cost-volume-profit chart, sometimes called a break-even chart, graphically shows sales, costs, and the related profit or loss for various levels of units sold. 4
72
11-7221-72 Unit selling price$ 50 Unit variable cost 30 Unit contribution margin$ 20 Total fixed costs $100,000 The cost-volume-profit chart in Slides 73 to 86 is based on Exhibit 5. Exhibit 5 was constructed using the following data: 4

78
11-7821-78 A point on the chart is needed to establish the revenue line. An arbitrary sales amount is picked of 10,000 units. At this sales level, the cost should be $400,000, calculated as follows: [(10,000 × $30) + $100,000] = $400,000. 4
79
11-7921-79 A line is drawn between fixed cost ($100,000) and the point. 4 Cost-Volume-Profit Chart (continued)Exhibit 5 Sales and Costs (in thousands) $500 $450 $400 $350 $300 $250 $200 $150 $100 $ 50 0 123456789 10 Units of Sales (in thousands)
80
11-8021-80 The line would be the same if another point had been picked. For example, assume that 8,000 units had been chosen. At this sales level, the cost should be $400,000 [(8,000 × $30) + $100,000 = $340,000]. 4

11-9521-95 Assumptions of Cost- Volume-Profit Analysis The primary assumptions are: 1.Total sales and total costs can be represented by straight lines. 2.Within the relevant range of operating activity, the efficiency of operations does not change. 3.Costs can be divided into fixed and variable components. 4.The sales mix is constant. 5.There is no change in the inventory quantities during the period. 4

11-9721-97 Sales Mix Considerations The sales volume necessary to break even or to earn a target profit for a business selling two or more products depends upon the sales mix. The sales mix is the relative distribution of sales among the various products sold by a business. 5

11-9921-99 It is useful to think of the individual products as components of one overall enterprise product. For Cascade Company, the overall enterprise product is called E. Unit selling price of E: ($90 × 0.8) + ($140 × 0.2) = $100 Unit variable cost of E: ($70 × 0.8) + ($95 × 0.2) = 75 Unit contribution margin of E: $ 25 5
