Preface I am delighted to introduce Management Accounting before the undergraduate students of commerce. This book covers the latest syllabi of B.Com. courses of almost all Indian universities. It presents conceptual and theoretical aspects of Management Accounting in a simple, lucid and comprehensive manner, together with a variety of problems, their solutions, and exercises. I have explained the fundamental aspects of the subject for beginners with mathematical examples. Every topic has been discussed from the basic level of the concept to the highest possible standard as permissible for students at this level. The highlight of the book is the pedagogical elements such as chapter review quiz and exercises at the end of every chapter. It also contains numerous theoretical questions and practical problems, so that students can assess their levels of performance. I firmly believe that this book will meet the varied requirements of students. My apologies for any error that might have crept into the book in spite of my best efforts. I assure you that I will amend any such errors, if any, at the earliest opportunity. I welcome suggestions for the improvement of the quality of the book and may be reached at [email protected]. I express my deepest sense of gratitude to innumerable teachers, friends and well-wishers who inspired me round the clock with their valuable guidance and suggestions. I express my gratitude to Anshul Yadav of Pearson Education (India), without whose constant support and cooperation this book would never have seen the light of day. I also express my indebtedness to Raza Khan, Praveen Tiwari and Barun Kumar Sarkar, also of Pearson Education (India), who extended their cooperation for the early publication of the book. My heartiest gratitude to Sarbani Roy Bhattacharyya and Archisman Bhattacharyya, without whose great sacrifice in my personal life this book would not have been possible.

1.1 DEFINITION OF MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING Management Accounting is that branch of accounting which deals with presenting and providing accounting information to the management in such a systematic way so that it can perform its managerial functions of planning, controlling and decision-making in an effective and efficient manner. It acts as a ‘decision-making support system’ to the management. Many distinguished accountants and accounting institutions have defined the term Management Accounting in different languages. Some of them are enumerated as follows: According to Robert N. Anthony, ‘Management Accounting is concerned with accounting information which is useful to the management’. ‘Management Accounting is a term used to describe the accounting methods, system and techniques which, coupled with special knowledge and ability, assists management in its task of maximizing profits or minimizing losses’, according to J. Batty. As per Institute of Cost and Works Accountants of India (ICWAI), ‘Management Accounting is a system of collection and presentation of relevant economic information relating to an enterprise for planning, controlling and decision-making’. According to American Accounting Association (AAA), ‘Management Accounting is the application of appropriate techniques and concepts in processing historical and projected economic data of an entry to assist management in establishing plans for reasonable economic objectives in the making of rational decisions with a view towards these objectives’. As per Certified Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA), United Kingdom, ‘Management Accounting is an integral part of management concerned with identifying, presenting and interpreting information used for formulating strategy, planning and controlling activities, decision-making, optimizing the use of resources, disclosure to shareholders and other external to the entity, disclosure to employees, and safeguarding assets’. Analysing the above definitions, it can be concluded that Management Accounting is concerned with collection of data from both internal as well as external sources and communication of relevant information to the management, after processing, analysing and interpreting those, to perform its managerial functions of planning, controlling and decision-making in an effective and efficient manner.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

1.2 NATURE OR FEATURES OF MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING Management Accounting is basically the most effective tool to the management for the purpose of its planning, controlling and decision-making. Various distinguished nature or features of Management Accounting are discussed as follows: i. Management Accounting deals with the collection of accounting and other data, and it analyses, interprets and communicates all relevant information to the management which are effectively required for planning, controlling and decision-making for the organization. Hence, in a nutshell, one of the most important nature of Management Accounting is to analyse and interpret accounting and other data to make them understandable and usable to the management. ii. It interprets the analysed data as obtained from the operational and non-operational activities of the enterprise and makes necessary comments and conclusions on them. iii. It provides necessary information to the management to judge the effectiveness of its managerial functions. iv. It provides necessary information to the management to perform its managerial functions of decisionmaking, planning and controlling. v. It provides necessary information to the management to review whether the performance of the enterprise has been achieved towards its goals and objectives. vi. It acts as a yardstick for measuring the level of performance of the operational and non-operational activities of the enterprise. vii. It serves as a yardstick for measuring the effectiveness of managerial performance of the different activities of the enterprise. viii. It is a forward-looking tool to the management. It analyses and interprets historical data for projecting the future trends of the different activities of the enterprise. ix. It prepares necessary plans to implement various financial decisions of the management. It also develops a system of feedback reporting and monitoring performance against the plan of the management. 1.3 SCOPE OF MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING Management Accounting has a very widespread scope. It covers a very wide area of accounting system, which is discussed as follows: i. Financial Accounting: Financial Accounting provides the basic historical data to the Management Accounting which analyses and interprets those data and provides necessary information to the management for its planning, controlling and decision-making. As Management Accounting does not maintain the basic financial records, the success of an effective and efficient Management Accounting System depends on the existence of an effective Financial Accounting System. Therefore, Management Accounting System can be introduced into an organization where there exists a well-designed Financial Accounting System. Management Accounting applies the principles and practices of Financial Accounting. ii. Cost Accounting: On the one hand, Cost Accounting provides cost-related basic data to the Management Accounting, which analyses and interprets those costing data and provides necessary information to the management for the purpose of its controlling and decision-making. On the other hand, most of the Cost Accounting techniques like Standard Costing, Budgetary Control, Marginal Costing, Cost–Volume–Profit (CVP) Analysis, Differential Cost Analysis and Inventory Controlling, are used by Management Accounting in its process of planning, controlling and decision-making. Management Accounting uses the principles and practices of Cost Accounting. iii. Forecasting and budgeting: Management Accounting exercises the tool of forecasting and budgeting in the process of planning, controlling and decision-making. Forecasting makes an estimate of the probable event with a set of given or assumed information. Budgeting prepares a number of plans for any future project by setting definite goals. Forecasting helps to prepare the budget and budgeting

helps to exercise the budgetary control technique on future projects. Both these tools are frequently used in Management Accounting. Statistical tools: Various statistical tools like graphs, charts, diagrams, time series, sampling, index numbers and Regression Analysis are used in Management Accounting in the process of planning, controlling and decision-making. Operational research techniques: Various operational research techniques like Linear Programming, Transportation Theory, Games Theory and Simulation Method are used in Management Accounting to resolve various problems prevailing under the existing situation in the process of decision-making. Financial analysis and interpretation: Various financial analysis techniques such as Ratio Analysis, Fund Flow Analysis, Cash Flow Analysis, Comparative Financial Statement, Common-Size Statement and Trend Analysis are widely used in Management Accounting to analyse and interpret financial data to make them easily understandable and useable to the management. Successful application of Management Accounting depends a lot on these financial analysis and interpretation works. Tax accounting and tax planning: Determination of taxable income and tax liability of the enterprise fall within the purview of the Management Accounting. In the process of decision-making, the analysis of implication of tax provisions on future projects also falls within the purview of Management Accounting. On the other hand, the management accountant must have a vast knowledge of tax laws and their accounting procedures, and also tax planning, to minimize the tax burden of the enterprise. Management Information System (MIS): Management Information System (MIS) is a modern computerized information system, by which accurate processing and analysis of a large volume of data can be done within a very short time. This information system is used in Management Accounting to provide necessary and relevant information to the management in the process of its planning, controlling and decision-making. Internal control and internal audit: Management Accounting highly depends on internal control system existing in the organization, like internal check and internal audit, to appraise the targeted performance and to identify the weaker area of the organization. Office system: Management Accounting System should also be well conversant with the modern office management system like filing, indexing, copying, electronic data processing, information network system, and email and fax system. Legal provisions: Management Accounting System should also be well informed about relevant and necessary legal provisions like Companies Act, Foreign Exchange Act, Securities Act, and Direct and Indirect Tax Laws. In the process of decision-making, management accountants should restrict their plan and action within the periphery of such legal provisions. Other areas: Apart from the aforementioned areas, Management Accounting also includes various newly developed areas of accounting like Human Resource Accounting, Social Accounting, Environmental Accounting and Inflation Accounting, within the purview of its scope.

1.4 OBJECTIVES OF MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING The prime objective of Management Accounting is to provide necessary information to the management for an effective and efficient execution of managerial functions. Various objectives of Management Accounting are enumerated as follows: i. Analysis and interpretation of financial statements: Management Accounting collects, analyses and interprets the necessary data from the results shown by the Financial and Cost Accounting System, and also provides necessary and relevant information to the management in a systematic and useful manner which are to be applied by the management in the process of its planning, controlling and decision-making. Various tools like Ratio Analysis, Fund Flow Analysis, Cash Flow Analysis, Comparative

Financial Statement, Common-Size Statement and Trend Analysis are widely used in Management Accounting for analysing and interpreting those data so as to make them easily understandable and useable to the management. Planning and policy-making: Management Accounting provides necessary and relevant information to the management in the process of its planning and policy-making to achieve organizational goals. Various statistical forecasting techniques like Time-Series Analysis and Regression Analysis are used in Management Accounting to guide proper planning and policy-making. Decision-making: Management Accounting provides necessary and relevant information to the management in the process of its decision-making. The success of the management highly depends upon a perfect decision-making. Such decision-making broadly depends on the effectiveness of information network. Management Accounting provides the above information to the management by applying Marginal Costing Technique, Differential Costing Technique and Absorption Costing Technique, for an effective and accurate decision-making. Controlling: Management Accounting applies various useful techniques such as Standard Costing, Budgetary Control, Responsibility Accounting and Management Audit, to ensure an effective managerial control over the use of resources of the enterprise. Management control is a control system which assures that the resources of the enterprise are effectively and efficiently used for achieving its goals and objectives. Management Accounting plays a significant role to the management in ensuring the existence of a proper managerial control system. Communicating: Proper communication of the performance of various sections of an enterprise to different levels of management is essentially required for planning, controlling and decision-making. Management Accounting does such communication by preparing reports of performance of various sections of the enterprise with the help of management information system. Coordinating: Management Accounting helps in coordinating various business activities of an enterprise. Its techniques of planning make a very good coordination between various activities of a concern. A master budget of the concern for a given period is prepared through coordination between various business activities of the concern. Proper reporting of different business activities are also made through coordination between various sections of the enterprise. Tax planning: Determination of tax liability of the enterprise after availing various tax rebates and reliefs falls within the purview of Management Accounting System. Management Accounting helps the management in the process of tax planning by availing various tax rebates and reliefs and, thus, reduces the burden of tax of the enterprise, on the whole. Advisory Service: Management Accounting renders valuable advice to the management for resolving any financial or other problems of the enterprise. To overcome any existing financial and other problems, various Management Accounting techniques are applied according to the nature of the problem. Management Accounting also plays a very important role as an advisor to the management.

1.5 ROLE OR FUNCTIONS OF MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING The function of Management Accounting is to assist the management to perform its functions of planning, organizing, directing, controlling and decision-making. The major functions of Management Accounting are as follows: i. Collection of data: Management Accounting does not maintain records of financial and cost data but it collects the basic financial data mainly from the records as maintained by financial and Cost Accounting for the purpose of preparing plans and actions of the management. ii. Supply of modified data: It modifies the collected raw data by classifying and compiling them for making them suitable for the purpose of their analysis and interpretation. It extracts the necessary and effective information from those basic data for the purpose of their analysis and interpretation.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

vii. Communicating: It communicates the performances of the various divisions and employees of the enterprise with the help of the management information system to the different levels of its management by preparing reports of performance of those sections and employees of the enterprise. Such communication is essentially required for planning, controlling and decision-making of the enterprise. viii. Decision-making: It plays the most important role in the process of decision-making of a concern. The success of the management highly depends upon the perfect decision-making and such decisionmaking broadly depends on the effectiveness of information network. It provides necessary and relevant information to the management for effective and accurate decision-making. 1.7 LIMITATIONS OF MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING Despite the fact that Management Accounting acts as a very useful tool to the management in the process of performing its managerial functions, it suffers from the following limitations: i. Reliance on accounting data: Management Accounting collects the basic data mainly from the records as maintained by financial and Cost Accounting. Hence, it starts to work on the basis of the data as supplied by the other branches of accounting. If those basic data are incorrect, then the entire effort of the management accountant becomes useless. ii. Based on historical data: It guides the management in the process of decision-making for the future activities on the basis of the historical data as supplied by Financial Accounting and Cost Accounting. Therefore, Management Accounting uses historical data for making future decisions, which may not always result in a correct decision. iii. Wide scope: It covers a very vast area and also includes a number of related fields such as Financial Accounting, Cost Accounting, Statistics, Operational Research, Law and Economics, to become more effective to the management. It is really very difficult to develop such a Management Accounting System where all the related people are not well-equipped with full knowledge of all these related areas. iv. Highly expensive: The installation of a sound Management Accounting System in a concern is highly expensive as it essentially requires a wide network of management information system. Moreover, the operating expense of the Management Accounting department is also very high. As a result, small concerns generally cannot afford to install this system. v. Complicated application: It is such a system where a number of different tools and techniques are applied. It also uses a number of accounting and non-accounting subjects for analysis and interpretation of data. Accordingly, its proper application is really complicated when compared to other branches of accounting. A management accountant may try to avoid such a complicated approach of decision-making. vi. Lack of objectivity: It uses both quantitative as well as qualitative data for analysis and interpretation, and also prepares reports on the basis of such interpretation. The interpretation of information as provided by Management Accounting in the form of reports may be influenced by a personal bias of the interpreter, which may reduce the utility of Management Accounting. vii. Not a substitute of management: It merely provides necessary and relevant information to the management to perform their managerial functions of planning, controlling and decision-making in an effective and efficient manner, but certainly is not a substitute for the management itself. It acts only as a decision-making tool to assist the management, but cannot take the ultimate decision on its own. viii. Developing stage: It is still in its developing stage as it is relatively a recent area in the field of accounting. It follows some concepts and conventions which are not yet generally accepted. Many experiments have been still in progress on this area of accounting.

1.8 TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES OF MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING Management Accounting uses various tools and techniques for providing necessary and effective information to the management for performing its managerial functions. Various tools and techniques that are commonly used in Management Accounting are discussed as follows: i. Financial Statement Analysis: It is a methodical and systematic analysis and interpretation of the data as disclosed in the balance sheet and income statement with a view to extract necessary and relevant information for proving them to the management for determining liquidity, solvency, profitability, activity and the managerial performance of the enterprise. Various tools of Financial Statement Analysis such as Ratio Analysis, Comparative Financial Statement, Common-Size Statement and Trend Analysis are frequently used in Management Accounting for analysis and interpretation of financial statements. ii. Fund Flow Analysis: It is a detailed analysis of inflows and outflows of fund (i.e., the working capital) of an enterprise during a particular accounting period. Such analysis is done by preparing a Fund Flow Statement at the end of an accounting period. The Fund Flow Statement exhibits inflows and outflows of fund from various activities of the enterprise during an accounting period. As working capital is considered as the life-blood of every business concern, efficient management of working capital is highly effective for the smooth running of all operating activities of the concern. For an effective and efficient management of the working capital of a concern, Fund Flow Analysis is frequently used as a tool of the Management Accounting. iii. Cash Flow Analysis: It is a detailed analysis of inflows and outflows of cash and cash equivalents (i.e., cash in hand, cash at bank and short-term investments) of an enterprise during a particular accounting period. Such analysis is done by preparing a Cash Flow Statement at the end of an accounting period. The Cash Flow Statement so prepared exhibits the inflows and outflows of cash from various activities of the enterprise during an accounting period. As the movement of cash is very much significant to every business concern, an efficient management of cash is highly effective for the liquidity planning of the concern. For an effective and efficient management of cash of a concern, Cash Flow Analysis is frequently used as a tool of Management Accounting. iv. Costing techniques: Various costing techniques such as Marginal Costing, Standard Costing and Differential Costing are frequently used as tools of Management Accounting in its process of cost control and decision-making. v. Budgetary control: Budgetary control involves framing of budgets, comparison of actual results with budgeted estimates, ascertainment of any deviation of actual results from budgeted estimates by computation of variances and adoption of necessary remedial measures against such deviation. It is an essential tool widely used in the Management Accounting in the process of its controlling, planning and performance evaluation of an enterprise. vi. Statistical and operational research techniques: Various statistical and operational research techniques such as charts, graphs, index number, sampling, time series, Regression Analysis, Linear Programming, Games Theory, and Programme Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) are frequently used as tools of Management Accounting in its process of performance evaluation and decision-making. vii. Responsibility Accounting: It involves preparation of budget for various responsibility centres and assignment of specific responsibilities to the concerned individual managers for carrying out the budget directions. In the process of cost control, responsibility accounting is widely used as a tool of Management Accounting. viii. Management Reporting: It involves preparation and submission of reports of performance of various activities of a concern to the management on regular intervals for its effective planning, controlling, performance evaluation and decision-making. Management Reporting is widely used as an essential tool in Management Accounting.

2.1 MEANING OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Financial Statements are compilation of financial data, arranged and organized in a systematic and summarized manner according to the accounting principles, to assess the financial position of an enterprise as regards to its profitability, operational efficiency, long- and short-term solvency and growth potential. On the basis of the information as disclosed in the Financial Statements, users of them come to know about the growth, profitability, solvency and financial strength of an enterprise. These are prime tools in the hands of the management of an enterprise by which they can present the financial position of the enterprise before the interested parties such as shareholders, lenders and creditors. A number of statements prepared at the end of every accounting period are collectively called ‘Financial Statements.’ Financial Statements include the following: i. Income Statement or Profit & Loss A/c. ii. Balance Sheet. iii. Fund Flow Statement. iv. Cash Flow Statement. 2.2 CHARACTERISTICS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Financial Statements indicate the financial strength of an enterprise and communicate financial information to the different interested parties. According to the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), ‘Financial Statements reflect a combination of recorded facts, accounting conventions and personal judgments and the judgments and conventions applied affect them materially.’ Therefore, this statement of AICPA implies that the data as contained in the Financial Statements are affected by the recorded facts, accounting conventions and personal judgements. Accordingly, the nature of Financial Statements may be explained as follows: i. Recorded Facts: Financial transactions that take place are recorded in the books of accounts of the concern in monetary value. Financial Statements are prepared taking those recorded transactions. These recorded facts reflect the results of the past activities of the enterprise; and accordingly, they are

called ‘historical evidences.’ On the basis of these historical evidences as recorded during an accounting period, Financial Statements are prepared at the end of the accounting period. Hence, one of the characteristics of the Financial Statements is that they are prepared on the basis of past recorded facts. Accounting Conventions: Some accounting principles, concepts, conventions and postulates are applied while preparing the Financial Statements, in order to make them reliable, meaningful and comparable. Concepts of materiality, consistency, periodicity, conservatism and full disclosures are the examples of such accounting principles, concepts, conventions and postulates that are applied in Financial Statements. Periodic Information: Financial Statements exhibit a periodical financial information of an entity. As Financial Statements are prepared generally at the end of every accounting year, these provide relevant financial information for that accounting year. Summary of Activities: Financial Statements should incorporate the summary of the financial information of all the activities of the concern. It includes the financial information of operating, investing and financing activities of the concern. Prime aid for Financial Analysis: Financial Statements provide the prime information for the financial analysis of a concern. These act as the prime aid for financial analysis by disclosing all the material information before the users. Legal Conformity: Financial Statements must disclose all the information as required by the law of the country. It should be presented in conformity with the applicable legal provisions. They should also be presented in conformity with the relevant accounting standards of the country. Personal Judgements: Financial Statements are not only prepared on the basis of the established accounting principles and conventions and legal requirements, personal judgements of the accountants and management are also applied in some cases for preparing the Financial Statements. For example, in case of valuation of inventories, personal judgement is essentially required as regards to the application of method of such valuation (i.e., LIFO or FIFO or Weighted Average). Thus, Financial Statements are also influenced by personal judgements of the accountant or the management of the concern.

2.3 ANATOMY/COMPONENTS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Financial Statements comprise a number of statements generally prepared at the end of every financial year to assess the various financial activities and strength of an enterprise. Components of Financial Statements are as shown in Figure 2.1. Financial Statements

Components of Financial Statements

These Financial Statements are generally prepared at the end of every accounting year by a concern to evaluate the financial activities and the strength of the concern, as well as due to legal obligation, as all the above statements are the carriers of financial information that are required by different users of Financial Statements. Each component of the Financial Statements is separately described as follows. 2.3.1 Income Statement or Profit & Loss Account Income Statement (or Profit & Loss A/c—P&L A/c) is a statement (or an account) prepared at the end of every accounting year to ascertain the revenue profit earned (or the revenue loss incurred) from the business

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

during that accounting year. Such revenue profit is ascertained by deducting various costs incurred during an accounting year to generate revenue into the business from the revenue generated for the business, for that accounting year, by way of sale of goods and other activities. Such profit is ascertained in three parts as follows: First, the excess of revenue generated from the operating activities (i.e., sale of goods, discount received, commission received) of the enterprise during an accounting period over the direct revenue expenses incurred to carry on the operating activities (i.e., materials consumed, wages, factory expenses) of the enterprise for that accounting year represents the Gross Profit for that accounting year. Secondly, the Operating Profit is ascertained by deducting the indirect revenue operating expenses incurred (i.e., salary to staff, general expenses, selling expenses) for that accounting year from the Gross Profit as ascertained in the above. Finally, the Net Profit for the accounting year is ascertained by adjusting the nonoperating incomes (i.e., interest, dividend received from investment) and non-operating expenses (i.e., interest on loan) for that accounting year with the Operating Profit as ascertained in the above. Hence, the profit earned (or loss incurred) during an accounting year is ascertained through the Income Statement by matching the total revenue expenses incurred during that accounting year with the revenue incomes earned during that accounting year. Therefore, the Income Statement exhibits the profit-earning capacity of an enterprise for a particular accounting year. It is prepared generally at the end of every accounting year mainly to evaluate the regular operating performance of a concern for that accounting period. 2.3.2 Balance Sheet Balance Sheet is a summarized statement, generally prepared at the end of every accounting period, showing therein the values of assets and liabilities with a view to exhibit the financial position of the concern. The Balance Sheet of every concern consists of two parts—assets and liabilities. In the ‘asset side’ of the Balance Sheet, the values of assets owned by the concern as on that date are exhibited. An Asset is defined as the claim or right acquired by the concern as a result of its past transaction, which is supposed to provide the future economic benefit to the concern. The asset side of the Balance Sheet consists of four parts—Fixed Assets, investments, Current Assets and miscellaneous expenditure. Fixed Assets are those that have been acquired by the concern not for resale, rather acquired for long-term use for the operating activities of the business (e.g., Land & Building, Plant & Machinery). Investments represent the amount of long-term fund invested outside the business (e.g., investment in shares or debentures of other companies). Current Assets are those that have been acquired by the firm with the expectation to consume or convert them into cash within a year from the date of their acquisition (Stock of goods, Sundry Debtors). Miscellaneous expenditure represents the deferred loss to the extent not written off (i.e., Preliminary expenses, Discount on issue of shares or debentures). In the ‘liability side’ of the Balance Sheet, the values of liabilities payable by the concern as on that date are exhibited. A Liability is defined as the obligation incurred by the concern as a result of its past transaction, against which the concern is liable to pay money or other assets to another party. Liability side of the Balance Sheet consists of three parts—owners’ fund, outsiders’ long-term loans and Current Liabilities. ‘Owners’ fund’ refers to the long-term fund invested by the owner into the business, which is comprised of Share Capital, undistributed profits and reserves and so on (i.e., Share Capital, Reserves & Surplus). ‘Outsiders’ long-term loan’ refers to the long-term fund invested by the outsiders (i.e., not the owner) into the business in the form of loan of a long-term nature (e.g., Debentures, other long-term secured and unsecured loans). ‘Current Liabilities’ are those obligations of the concern which are supposed to pay within a period of 1 year from the date of their occurrence (e.g., Sundry Creditors, Bills Payable). 2.3.3 Statement of Changes in Financial Position Traditionally, Financial Statements refer to the Income Statement and the Balance Sheet. But, as per modern concept, further extension of the periphery of Financial Statements is essentially needed in the modern business world to disclose more financial information of an entity to the different users of the Financial Statements.

ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As a consequence, some other statements, which exhibit changes in the financial position of an entity between two accounting years, are incorporated in the composition of Financial Statements. They are: Fund Flow Statement and Cash Flow Statement. 2.3.3.1 Fund Flow Statement Fund Flow Statement is a summarized statement generally prepared at the end of an accounting year showing therein the inflows and outflows of the fund of an enterprise during that accounting year. In this context, ‘fund’ refers to the working capital (i.e., Current Assets—Current Liabilities). Therefore, the Fund Flow Statement is a summarized statement generally prepared at the end of an accounting year, which exhibits various sources of the working capital and its uses made by a concern during that particular accounting year. This statement shows the flows of fund (i.e., working capital) of a concern during an accounting year. A Fund Flow Statement is prepared on the basis of the published data as disclosed by the traditional Financial Statements (i.e., Income Statement and Balance Sheet) of two different accounting years. It summarizes all the fund flows between two accounting years. It is an essential tool for the managerial decision-making. 2.3.3.2 Cash Flow Statement Cash Flow Statement is a summarized statement generally prepared at the end of an accounting year showing therein the inflows and outflows of the cash of an enterprise during that accounting year. As per Accounting Standard 3 (Revised) as issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI), ‘cash’ refers to the cash-in-hand, cash-at-bank and short-term investments (i.e., cash & cash equivalents). Therefore, a Cash Flow Statement exhibits various sources of cash and cash equivalents and their uses made by a concern during the particular accounting year. This statement shows the flows of cash and cash equivalents of a concern during an accounting year. A Cash Flow Statement is prepared on the basis of the published data as disclosed by the traditional Financial Statements (i.e., Income Statement and Balance Sheet) of two different accounting years. It summarizes all cash flows between the two accounting years. It is an essential tool for the managerial decision-making. Cash Flow Statement reports the management the net cash flow (i.e., cash inflow less the cash outflow or vice versa) from each activity of the enterprise as well as of the overall business of the enterprise. 2.4 RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN INCOME STATEMENT AND BALANCE SHEET Income Statement and the Balance Sheet, the two most important components of Financial Statements, are prepared under two different statements with two different objectives. While the Income Statement is prepared with a view to ascertain the net financial result for an accounting year from the operating and other activities of a concern, the Balance Sheet is prepared with a view to assess the financial position of the concern at the end of an accounting year. Yet, these two statements are closely related to each other. The relationship between them is explained as follows: Stock and flow relationship: In every business, there is a continuous flow of resources with the occurrences of transactions. These flows of resources are having two directions, such as inflows as well as outflows. Inflow of resources occurs as soon as the revenue is generated in the business by way of sale. On the other hand, the outflow of resources takes place when costs are incurred to generate revenue in the business. Income Statement and Balance Sheet reveal the flows and stock of these resources. Income Statement reveals the flows of resources that take place during an accounting year and ascertains the profit as excess of inflows over outflows of resources for that period. On the other hand, Balance Sheet exhibits the stock of resources possessed by a concern at the end of an accounting period. Complementary relationship: Although Income Statement and Balance Sheet provide different financial information to the users of Financial Statements, the truth is—either of the two statements alone cannot provide a full disclosure about the financial condition of a concern. On the one hand, Balance Sheet cannot be drawn without preparing the Income Statement. On the other hand, income

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

statement alone discloses the results of the operating and other activities of a concern, but not the financial strength of the concern. Therefore, for a full disclosure of financial information of a concern, preparation of both—the Income Statement as well as the Balance Sheet—are essentially needed for every concern. As either of these two statements cannot provide a full financial information to the different users, these are complementary to each other to provide the full disclosure about the financial condition of a concern. Link relationship: Balance Sheet acts as a link between the Income Statements of successive accounting years. While the benefits that are derivable from the expenses incurred or income earned during an accounting year (i.e., revenue expenses or incomes) may be exhausted during that accounting year, the benefits that may not be exhausted during that accounting year (i.e., capital expenditures or incomes) may be carried forward to the subsequent accounting years. While such revenue expenses and incomes are considered in the Income Statement for that accounting year, those capital expenditures and incomes are carried forward through the Balance Sheet to the next accounting year. If the benefits derivable from those carried forward incomes and expenditures are exhausted during the next accounting year, those would be considered in the Income Statement for the next accounting year; if are not exhausted during the next accounting year, then the residual values of those unexpired expenses or incomes would appear in the Balance Sheet of the subsequent year and so on. Therefore, the Balance Sheet serves as a link between the Income Statements of the successive accounting years. 2.5 CONCEPT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS Financial Statement Analysis is an analysis which critically examines the relationship between various elements of the Financial Statements with a view to obtain the necessary and effective information from them. It is a process of scanning the Financial Statements for evaluating the relationship between the items as disclosed in them. According to John N. Myer, ‘Financial Statement Analysis is largely a study of relationships among the various financial factors in a business, as disclosed by a single set of statements, and study of these factors as shown in a series of statements.’ Therefore, Financial Statement Analysis involves a systematic and critical examination of the information contained in the Financial Statements with a view to provide an effective and more meaningful information to its different users. It is basically a postmortem of the transactional activities of an enterprise as disclosed in the Financial Statements so as to judge the operational ability, profitability, solvency, managerial efficiency and the overall performance of the enterprise more clearly. 2.6 OBJECTIVES OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS Financial Statement Analysis is a very important and effective tool to the management of an enterprise. The objectives of a Financial Statement Analysis are as follows: i. To assess the real meaning and significance of financial data as disclosed in the Financial Statements. ii. To assess the liquidity and short-term solvency position of the enterprise. iii. To assess the long-term solvency position of the enterprise. iv. To assess the present and future profitability of the enterprise. v. To evaluate the operational efficiency of the enterprise. vi. To evaluate the managerial efficiency of the enterprise. vii. To assess the growth potentiality of the enterprise. viii. To evaluate the different activities of the concern. ix. To assess the financial stability of the enterprise. x. To assess the financial as well as the business risk of the concern. xi. To assess the overall performance of the concern.

2.7 REQUISITES OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS Financial Statement Analysis is done for many purposes. It may be done for a general purpose or for a specific purpose. Requisites for such Financial Statement Analysis are as follows: i. Study of internal and external environment: A financial analyst is required to be well acquainted with the internal as well as the external environment of the enterprise before commencing the analysis of its Financial Statements. For the said purpose, the internal environment refers to the employee morale, manager–subordinate relationship, corporate governance, relationship with customers and suppliers, structural change and so on. On the other hand, the external environment refers to applicable laws, competitors’ strength, customers’ profile, suppliers’ profile and so on. A study of these factors enables a financial analyst to make a better interpretation of the financial position and performance of the concern. ii. Objective of the analysis: A financial analyst should be well acquainted with the objectives of such analysis so that he can locate the area of his study. iii. Study of accounting procedure: The analyst should have a clear idea of the accounting procedures, principles and policies that are being followed by the enterprise. This helps the analyst to make an appropriate interpretation of the Financial Statements of the enterprise. iv. Rearrangement of financial data: Based on the objectives and the area of coverage of the analysis, the analyst should rearrange the primary financial data as extracted from the Financial Statements before commencing the analysis. v. Selection of techniques for analysis: The analyst should select the most appropriate tools and techniques for interpretation and analysis of Financial Statements. This enables the analyst to make an effective interpretation of the financial position and performance of the enterprise. vi. Interpretation of findings: The analyst should interpret his findings, those he gathered during the course of his analysis, in a lucid and effective manner so as to make them meaningful and easily understandable to the users of the Financial Statements. vii. Submission of report: The analyst must prepare a report on the basis of the interpretation of his findings which he gathered during the course of the analysis and submit the same before the management/ client for their controlling, planning and decision-making purposes. 2.8 DIFFERENT APPROACHES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS Generally, two approaches are followed for the analysis of Financial Statements. They are: i. Traditional approach to Financial Statement Analysis. ii. Modern approach to Financial Statement Analysis. These two approaches of Financial Statement Analysis are separately discussed as follows. 2.8.1 Traditional Approach to Financial Statement Analysis Traditional approach to Financial Statement Analysis is the conventional approach of financial analysis which came into existence at the end of the 19th century. This approach of analysis is based on the financial data contained in the Financial Statements. It takes into consideration the traditional Financial Statements comprising of the Income Statement and the Balance Sheet. Traditionally, financial ratios were used as the basic tool for assessing the financial position of the enterprise. For example, current ratio was widely used to assess the short-term solvency position of an entity. As soon as it was realised that current ratio alone cannot be a true indicator of the short-term solvency position of an entity, a more realistic measure was developed by way of introduction of ‘Acid-Test (or Quick or Liquid) Ratio’ for assessing the short-term solvency position of an entity. For measuring the profitability of a concern, this approach developed Gross Profit Ratio, Net Profit Ratio and so on. For measuring the long-term solvency position of the business, it developed Debt–Equity Ratio.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Various turnover ratios were also developed for measuring various activities, efficiency, utilization of resources and managerial performance of the enterprise. Gradually, the traditional approach to Financial Statement Analysis further extended its scope by developing an inter-firm comparison of ratios and by accepting ‘industry average ratio’ as the standard ratio for evaluation of short-term solvency position, long-term solvency position, managerial efficiency and performance of the business. Traditional approach reached a landmark when it developed the concept of preparing ‘Common-size Financial Statements’ to study the comparison of various elements of Financial Statements. Recently, another development was made by the traditional approach to Financial Statement Analysis by introducing the Index Number Trend Analysis of Financial Statements. This analysis is used to study the Financial Statements of an enterprise over a series of years. In spite of the above development, the traditional approach does not give any emphasis on the social desirability factors like human resource, environmental issues and other external factors, in the Financial Statements. Though this approach ignores non-financial items, it considers financial items alone for the purpose of Financial Statement Analysis. 2.8.2 Modern Approach to Financial Statement Analysis Modern approach to Financial Statement Analysis has been introduced in order to overcome the various limitations of the traditional approach. This approach gives emphasis on both financial as well as non-financial factors of the Financial Statements. It includes social desirability factors in the corporate Financial Statements. In this approach of Financial Statement Analysis, both internal as well as external environmental factors of the business are taken into consideration. It incorporates various non-financial factors such as employee morale, applicable regulations, relationship with customers and suppliers, business risk and financial risk involved with the concern, and competitive environment. Modern approach to Financial Statement Analysis is a forward-looking phenomenon. Accordingly, it gives more emphasis on future. It provides relevant and effective information for future decision-making. It processes past and present information as disclosed in the Financial Statements to make the prediction on the future issues of the concern. This analysis uses modern statistical and mathematical tools and techniques for interpretation of Financial Statements. Under this analysis, conclusions are made after empirical verification. It provides all the necessary information as regards to short-term- as well as long-term financial condition of the concern to all users. 2.9 TYPES OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS Analysis of Financial Statements can be made on different basis. Different types of Financial Statement Analysis are shown in Figure 2.2. Types of Financial Statement Analysis

Types of Financial Statement Analysis

i. From the viewpoint of its users: From the viewpoint of the users of the Financial Statements, analysis of such may be of two types as the following: a. Internal Analysis: As the management of an enterprise has the right to access its books and accounts (i.e., internal sources), such an analysis is done by the management of the enterprise. As such an analysis is based on the factual data recorded in the books of accounts, it provides a reliable and dependable information of the enterprise to the users.

b. External Analysis: Such an analysis is done by the external parties, like creditors, investors, bankers, government and research scholars, who do not have any access to the internal books and accounts of the enterprise. Accordingly, such an analysis is based on the published reports and statements of the enterprise. ii. From the viewpoint of its objectivity: From the viewpoint of the users of the Financial Statements, analysis of Financial Statements may be of two types: a. Short-term Analysis: Such an analysis of Financial Statements is done to examine liquidity, profitearning capacity and short-term solvency of an enterprise. This analysis is made taking into account the various elements of Current Assets and Current Liabilities with a view to judge the short-term financial position of the enterprise. It is very much useful for the short-term financial planning. b. Long-term Analysis: Such an analysis of Financial Statements is done to examine the long-term financial stability and long-term solvency as well as the future profit-earning capacity of an enterprise. This analysis is made taking various items of long-term assets and liabilities with a view to judge long-term financial position of the enterprise. It is very much useful for long-term financial planning. iii. From the viewpoint of time span: From the viewpoint of the users of the Financial Statements, analysis of Financial Statements may be of two types: a. Vertical/Static Analysis: Such an analysis is done to examine the Financial Statements of one particular year alone of an enterprise. Therefore, this analysis is based on the financial data of one accounting year alone; and that is why, it is also called as ‘static analysis.’ It presents the structural relationship of different items contained in the Financial Statements. Accounting ratios and Common-size Statements are two tools that are generally used for this analysis. b. Horizontal/Dynamic Analysis: Such an analysis is done to examine the Financial Statements of a number of years of an enterprise. Therefore, this analysis is based on the financial data of several accounting years; and that is why it is also called ‘dynamic analysis.’ It is a time-series analysis of the data contained in the Financial Statements. It indicates the growth of the enterprise over a number of years by a comparative time-series analysis. Comparative Financial Statements and TrendPercentage Analysis are two tools that are commonly used for this analysis. 2.10 TECHNIQUES/TOOLS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS Techniques of Financial Statement Analysis can be defined as the tool or method of analysing Financial Statements, evaluating its performance, and identifying the strength and weakness of the enterprise by interpreting the results and taking corrective measures. These methods would help the analyst to present the information from the Financial Statements in such a form that would help the users to understand the core areas of the functioning of the business of an enterprise. There are several techniques or tools which are generally used for analysing the Financial Statements, but none of them alone are sufficient for interpreting the overall performance of the enterprise and for decision-making as well. Rather, a combination of few techniques is generally used for an effective interpretation and analysis of the overall performance of the enterprise. Various techniques that are used for interpretation and analysis of Financial Statements are shown as follows: i. Comparative Financial Statement. ii. Common-size Statement. iii. Trend Analysis. iv. Ratio Analysis. v. Cash Flow Statement. vi. Fund Flow Statement. vii. Working Capital Analysis. viii. Cost–Volume–Profit Analysis. In this chapter, we shall study in detail the first three methods alone of the above-mentioned Financial Statement Analysis.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

2.11 COMPARATIVE FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS 2.11.1 Concept of Comparative Financial Statement Analysis Comparative Financial Statement Analysis is a form of horizontal analysis where the Financial Statements of two or more years, or of two or more different companies, or of a company and its industry, are compared, analysed and interpreted. That is why, this technique of analysis is also called ‘inter-period analysis’ (when the Financial Statements of two or more years are taken into consideration) or ‘inter-firm analysis’ (when Financial Statements of two or more companies are taken into consideration). The two most commonly used forms of such analysis are: i. Comparative Balance Sheet. ii. Comparative Income Statement. In case of inter-period analysis, it should be kept in mind that uniformity in accounting concepts and conventions is maintained during all the years that are taken into consideration for comparison. On the other hand, in case of inter-firm analysis, the size of the firms taken into consideration for comparison must be more or less the same; as otherwise, meaningful conclusions cannot be drawn. To have more accurate results, external factors like market conditions and business risk should also be considered. Under year-to-year change analysis, all the elements of a Balance Sheet or Income Statement are compared and absolute changes as well as the percentage changes are calculated on the basis of the previous year as the base year. The changes in Fixed Assets, investments, Current Assets, proprietors’ fund and Current Liabilities are compared to determine the long-term solvency position of the firm and growth of the firm. From the Comparative Income Statement, we are able to know the absolute and percentage changes in the Gross Profit, Operating Profit and Net Profit. (A) Comparative statement exhibits the following pertinent information: i. Absolute figures for two or more years of the items appearing in the Financial Statements (i.e., in the Balance Sheet and in the Income Statement). ii. Changes in the above absolute figures of the current year as compared to the previous year is taken as the base year (or firm-wise changes). iii. Percentage changes in the absolute figures of the current year on the basis of the base year (or percentage of the firm-wise changes). Illustration Say, the debtors and stock of a company as on 31 December 2008 are Rs. 50,000 and Rs. 90,000, respectively, and as on 31 December 2009 are Rs. 60,000 and Rs. 75,000, respectively. Then, the Comparative Balance Sheet would exhibit the following: Absolute Figure 2008 (Rs.) 2009 (Rs.) Debtors Stock

50,000 90,000

Changes in Absolute Figure (Rs.)

% Changes

10,000 (15,000)

20 (16.67)

60,000 75,000

% change in the absolute figure is calculated in the following manner: % change =

Change in the absolute figure × 100 Absolute figure in the base year

% change in Debtors = 10,000 ÷ 50,000 × 100 = 20% % change in Stock =15,000 ÷ 90,000 × 100 = 16.67%

2.11.2 Advantages of Comparative Financial Statement Analysis i. Changes in the components of assets and liabilities can easily be known at a glance through a Comparative Balance Sheet. ii. Comparative Income Statements identify the trend of changes in sales, Gross Profit, Operating Profit and Net Profit. iii. Inter-firm comparison helps the management to evaluate the performance of the firm in relation to other firms in the same industry. Thus, the management can identify the strength and weakness of the firm and can adopt appropriate corrective measures too. iv. Helps to determine the long- and short-term solvency position of the firm. v. Trend of changes in the working capital, capital employed and proprietors’ fund can be easily known. 2.11.3 Disadvantages of Comparative Financial Statement Analysis i. When a particular item of Financial Statements does not appear in the base year but appears in the current year alone, then the meaningful computation of percentage change in the absolute figure of that item cannot be done. ii. Comparative analysis cannot exhibit a meaningful disclosure when uniformity in accounting concepts and conventions is not maintained over the years under analysis. iii. Such comparison becomes meaningless when the sizes of the firms differ. iv. Comparative analysis might express misleading disclosure if certain external factors like market conditions and business risk are not taken into consideration. v. It does not take into account the effect of changes in the price level. 2.12 COMMON-SIZE FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS 2.12.1 Concept of Common-size Financial Statement Analysis Through horizontal or comparative analysis of Financial Statements, a comparative study of different items or elements of Financial Statements of two or more years can be made, but the relative position of each item of the Financial Statements cannot be known. To study the relative significance of every item in the Financial Statements, a vertical analysis is proved to be very much effective. An important tool to such analysis is the ‘Common-size Statements.’ There are two forms of such statements: i. Common-size Income Statement. ii. Common-size Balance Sheet. These statements are termed as Common-size as each item in such statements is represented as a percentage of one chosen base item. More clearly, every item as appearing in such Income Statement is represented as a percentage of a base item. In case of Common-size Income Statement, generally, net sales is considered as the base item. Accordingly, net sales is taken as 100 and the other items in the Income Statement are expressed as a percentage of the said net sales. On the other hand, in case of Common-size Balance Sheet, generally, the total of the Balance Sheet is considered as the base item. Accordingly, the total of the Balance Sheet is taken as 100 and all the elements of the Balance Sheet are expressed as the percentage of the said total of the Balance Sheet. A Common-size Statement exhibits the following pertinent information: i. Absolute figures of the items appearing in the Financial Statements of two or more years or two or more firms. ii. Percentage figure of every item in the Financial Statements as a percentage of the pre-selected base item.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Illustration Say, Sales, Cost of Goods Sold, operating expenses and non-operating expenses of X Ltd for the year that ended on 31 December 2009 are Rs. 5,00,000, Rs. 3,00,000, Rs. 1,00,000 and Rs. 50,000 respectively, and those of Y Ltd for the year that ended on 31 December 2009 are Rs. 4,00,000, Rs. 2,80,000, Rs. 40,000 and Rs. 40,000 respectively. Then, the Common-size Income Statement for the year that ended on 31 December 2009 of X Ltd and Y Ltd would exhibit the following:

Less: Less: Less:

Sales Cost of Goods Sold Gross Profit Operating Expenses Operating Profit Non-operating Expenses Net Profit

Absolute Figures X Ltd (Rs.) Y Ltd (Rs.) 5,00,000 4,00,000 3,00,000 2,80,000 2,00,000 1,20,000 1,00,000 40,000 1,00,000 80,000 50,000 40,000 50,000 40,000

% of Sales X Ltd Y Ltd 100 100 60 70 40 30 20 10 20 20 10 10 10 10

% figures of the absolute figures are calculated in the following manner: Here, sales are considered as the base item and taken at 100. In case of X Ltd, Sales = Rs. 5,00,000 (which is considered as 100) % of the Cost of Goods Sold (as a percentage on sales) = 3,00,000 ÷ 5,00,000 × 100 = 60% % of the operating expenses (as a percentage on sales) = 1,00,000 ÷ 5,00,000 × 100 = 20%, and so on 2.12.2 Advantages of Common-size Statement i. It exhibits a relative significance of every item in the Financial Statements in percentage terms of its base figure. ii. In Common-size Income Statement, all items are converted in the percentage terms of sales. Such conversion helps the firm to ascertain how much portion of its sales is used up in cost of sales, operating expenses, interest and tax. iii. In a Common-size Balance Sheet, every item is presented in terms of the total of assets or liabilities, which helps an analyst to know how much percentage of total asset has been apportioned between the current and fixed asset and so on and how much percentage of the total liabilities is payable to the owners and the outsiders. iv. Nature of capital structure can be known at a glance, that is, the proportion of own capital and debt capital in total capital structure. v. It makes the inter-company comparison easier. It facilitates the comparison of firms with different sizes. vi. It helps to know the short- and long-term financial position of an enterprise. 2.12.3 Disadvantages of Common-size Statement i. Under this statement, the relative importance of each component of Financial Statements, on the whole, is exhibited, but no comparative study is done between the years. ii. In such statement, the time value of money is not considered. iii. This analysis does not prove to be very useful for any important decision-making. iv. It does not provide any meaningful disclosure while comparing the Common-size Statements of two or more years. v. It is not useful when it comes to making any segment-wise analysis.

2.12.4 Comparative Statement vs. Common-size Statement Comparative Statement 1. It is a form of horizontal analysis. 2. It is a comparison of different elements of Financial Statements between two or more years. 3. It fails to exhibit the relative importance of an individual component in the total. 4. Changes in values of different items in two different years are shown both in absolute as well as percentage terms. 5. It facilitates both intra- as well as inter-firm comparison. 6. It is very popular technique of Financial Statement Analysis.

Common-size Statement 1. It is a form of vertical analysis. 2. It is a comparison of different elements of Financial Statements with one chosen base item in the same year. 3. It shows the relative importance of each item of such statement in the total. 4. Changes in values of different items are shown as a percentage of a base item. 5. It mainly facilitates inter-firm comparison only. 6. It is not so popular when compared with comparative statement.

2.13 TREND ANALYSIS 2.13.1 Concept of Trend Analysis Trend Analysis is a form of comparative analysis of Financial Statements between two or more years. It indicates the trend of an individual item of the Financial Statements over a period of time. It helps to analyse the trend of each such item and thus, helps the management in the process of present and future policy-making. It is a useful tool for inter-firm comparison. When year-to-year change analysis of a comparative statement becomes cumbersome, more meaningful long-term trend comparison is done through Trend Analysis. 2.13.2 Steps in Computing Trend Values (or Percentages) i. A year (generally, a normal year, that is, a year where no abnormal incident has occurred) is chosen as the base year and the figures as appearing in the Financial Statements of that year are assigned as 100. ii. Necessary adjustments for price level should be made in the figures of other years when compared to this base year. iii. Now, trend percentages are to be computed in the following manner: Trend percentage =

Current year’s figure × 100 Base year’s figure

iv. Conclusion is then to be drawn studying the trend patterns of various items and also taking into account the absolute values of the concerned items. 2.13.3 Advantages of Trend Analysis i. Trend Analysis helps in analysing the growth in the financial activities of the firm at a glance. ii. Graphical presentation of trend line helps the management to take a quick decision on the concerned issue. iii. Trend values not only help the management in any important decision-making but in the controlling process as well. iv. Trend Analysis proves to be very useful for taking rational investment decisions. 2.13.4 Disadvantages of Trend Analysis i. Choosing of the base year is a difficult task. ii. It is not easy to identify the impact of inflation on the trend data and thus, the result might be misleading. iii. Changes in market conditions are not considered in Trend Analysis.

Tutorial Notes to Students for Solving Problems i. For preparing a Comparative Balance Sheet, firstly take the absolute figures of the items appearing in the given Balance Sheets of both the years under two separate columns. Thereafter, calculate the increase or decrease in the absolute figures (i.e., the Absolute Change) of every item and write the said changes in a separate column. Then, calculate the percentage change in absolute figures on the basis of the base year’s figures under a separate column. ii. For preparing a Comparative Income Statement, firstly take the absolute figures of the items appearing in the given Income Statements of both the years under two separate columns. Thereafter, calculate the increase or decrease in the absolute figures (i.e., the absolute change) of every item and write the said changes in a separate column. Then, calculate the percentage change in the absolute figures on the basis of the base year’s figures under a separate column. iii. For preparing a Common-size Balance Sheet, firstly take the absolute figures of the items appearing in the given Balance Sheets of both the years (or companies) under two separate columns. Then, calculate the percentage of each absolute figure in the given Balance Sheets on the basis of the respective Balance Sheet Total of each year (or company), considering each Balance Sheet Total as 100. iv. For preparing a Common-size Income Statement, firstly take the absolute figures of the items appearing in the given Income Statements of both the years (and companies) under two separate columns. Then, calculate the percentage of each absolute figure of the given Income Statements on the basis of the respective sales figure of each year (or company), considering each Sales Figure as 100. v. For calculating the Trend Percentage of an item in the Financial Statements, firstly arrange the years chronologically with the corresponding absolute figures of the item taken into consideration. In this arrangement, the base year with the corresponding absolute figure of the given item is to be arranged first. Trend percentage of this base year is to be taken at 100. Then, the trend percentages of the absolute figures of the other years are to be calculated on the basis of the trend percentage of the base year in the following manner: Trend percentage of the other years =

Absolute figure of the other year × 100 Absolute figure of base year

Comment on the Fixed Assets The total investment in the Fixed Assets has come down (by 2.5%) during the current year. This happens due to a fall in the book values of Building and Plant, may be due to depreciation or sale, though the investment in furniture has been substantially increased (by 40%) during the current year. Although the total capital employed in the business has been increased (by 9.5%) during the current year, such an increase in the capital has not been invested in the Fixed Assets.

ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Comments on the Financial Position i. The total capital employed in the business has been reduced (by 7.59%) during the current year, as a result of which the investments in the Fixed Assets and outside the business have been reduced. It seems that the company has used the proceeds received from the new issue of equity share to finance the redemption of preference shares. ii. Working Capital of the company has been slightly increased during the current year. iii. The financial position of the company seems to be deteriorating as the total capital employed in the business has been reduced in the current year accompanied by a reduction in the value of Fixed Assets and Current Assets.

Comments on the Financial Position i. The total capital employed in the business has been increased (by 27.17%) during the current year, but the major portion of which has been invested in Current Assets and plant and machinery. ii. Investments in the other Fixed Assets and outside the business have been substantially reduced during the current year. iii. Working Capital of the company has been remarkably increased (by 145.45%) during the current year due to a remarkable decrease in the Current Liabilities and an increase in the Bills Receivable, which indicates a good sign of short-term solvency of the business. iv. The entire capital employed in the business represents the owner’s capital and no debt capital. Although this indicates a sign of total long-term solvency of the company, it fails to take advantage of trading on equity due to the total absence of debt capital in the capital structure. v. The financial position of the company is sound enough, but it is operating with the owner’s capital only.

Working Notes 1. Calculation of Cost of Goods Sold Cost of Goods Sold = Opening Stock + Purchases + Direct Expenses − Closing Stock. Cost of Goods Sold for the year that ended on 31 March 2008 = 50,000 + 3,00,000 + 600 − 10,000 = Rs. 3,40,600. Cost of Goods Sold for the year that ended on 31 March 2009 = 60,000 + 3,20,000 + 800 − 12,000 = Rs. 3,68,800.

Comments on the Financial Position i. Gross Profit for the current year has increased by 29.07% as a result of a greater increase in Sales by 9.47% over a lower increase in Cost of Goods Sold by 8.28%. ii. Operating Profit has also been increased remarkably by 41.61% due to a lower increase in the Operating Expenses. iii. Net Profit has also been increased substantially by 49.06% during the current year due to a marginal increase in the interest and constant tax rate. iv. The overall performance of the company is progressing strongly.

Cost of Goods Sold for the year that ended on 31 March 2009 = 3,00,000 + 9,80,000 + 25,000 − 4,00,000 = Rs. 9,05,000.

Comments 1. Both sales as well as the Cost of Goods Sold have been increased in 2009 as compared to 2008, but sales have been increased at a higher rate than the Cost of Goods Sold. As a consequence, the Gross Profit for 2009 has been increased from 40% of sales to 40.27% of sales, indicating a marginal increase in the profit. 2. Operating expenses have been increased from 30% of sales to 33.64% of sales in 2009 as compared to 2008 resulting in a decrease in the Operating Profit from 10% to 6.63% of sales. 3. Interest cost has been increased from 3% to 5.67% of sales in 2009 resulting in a decline in the Net Profit before tax from 9% to 4% of sales in 2009. 4. A marginal decrease in the tax amount could not stop the Net Profit to fall from 4.5% to 2% of sales in 2009. 5. Therefore, we can conclude that profitability of the concern is declining over the period of time.

Again, given Net Profit after Tax = Rs. 48,000. Net Profit before Tax = 100 ÷ 80 × 48,000 = Rs. 60,000. Tax = 20 ÷ 80 × 48,000 = Rs. 12,000.

Comments 1. Investments in Fixed Assets and outside the business are more than three times than the investment in the Current Assets of Aaj Ltd. On the other hand, investments in Fixed Assets and outside the business are almost equal to the investment in the Current Assets of Kal Ltd. This indicates that a major portion of the capital employed in Aaj Ltd has been invested in the Long-term Assets, whereas the total capital employed in Kal Ltd has been almost evenly invested in the Long-term as well as Short-term assets. 2. The proportion of equity and debt capital in the capital structure of both the companies is almost the same. Debt–equity ratio of both the companies indicates a sound long-term solvency position. 3. The liquidity position of both the companies seems to be prudent as the ratio of Current Assets to Current Liabilities in terms of percentage to total assets is around 2:1. 4. The financial position of both the companies is sound.

Comments 1. Sales have steadily increased over the years, especially in the recent times, but the corresponding costs of goods sold have also been alarmingly increased at a higher rate. 2. Stock of goods has also been gradually increased over the years. Accumulation of more stock than the required quantity might hinder the profitability position of the firm. Therefore, further investigation is required in this respect.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

CHAPTER REVIEW SUMMARY Financial Statements are a compilation of financial data, arranged and organized in a systematic and summarized manner according to the accounting principles, to assess the financial position of an enterprise as regards its profitability, operational efficiency, long- and short-term solvency and growth potential. A number of statements prepared at the end of every accounting period are collectively called ‘Financial Statements.’  Characteristics of Financial Statements are: (a) they are prepared on the basis of past recorded facts; (b) some accounting principles, concepts, conventions and postulates are applied while preparing the Financial Statements; (c) they provide periodical information; (d) they exhibit a summary of all activities; and (e) they are the prime tool for financial analysis.  Components of Financial Statements are: (a) Income Statement; (b) Balance Sheet; (c) Fund Flow Statement; and (d) Cash Flow Statement.  Relationship between the items in the Balance Sheet and the Income Statement are: (a) Balance Sheet discloses the stock of resources while the Income Statement reveals the flows of resources; (b) Balance Sheet and Income Statement are complementary to each other; and (c) Balance Sheet serves as a link between the Income Statements of successive years.  Financial Statement Analysis is an analysis which critically examines the relationship between various components of Financial Statements with a view to obtain necessary and effective information from them.  Objectives of Financial Statement Analysis are: (a) to assess the real meaning and significance of financial data as disclosed in the Financial Statements; (b) to assess the liquidity, short- and long-term solvency position, profitability and growth potentiality of the enterprise; (c) to assess the operational efficiency of the enterprise; (d) to assess the financial stability of the enterprise; and (e) to assess the overall performance of the enterprise.  Requisites of Financial Statement Analysis are: (a) study of internal and external environment; (b) objective of the analysis; (c) study of accounting procedure; (d) rearrangement of financial data; (e) selection of techniques for analysis; (f) interpretation of findings; and (g) submission of report.  Generally, two approaches are followed for the analysis of Financial Statements. They are: (a) traditional approach to Financial Statement Analysis; and (b) modern approach to Financial Statement Analysis.  Different types of Financial Statement Analysis are: (a) internal and external analysis; (b) short- and long-term analysis; and (c) horizontal/dynamic analysis and vertical/static analysis.  Different techniques of Financial Statement Analysis are: (a) Comparative Financial Statement; (b) Commonsize Statement; (c) Trend Analysis; (d) Ratio Analysis; (e) Cash Flow Analysis; (f) Fund Flow Analysis; (g) Working Capital Analysis; and (h) Cost–Volume–Profit Analysis.  Comparative Financial Statement Analysis is a form of horizontal analysis where the Financial Statements of two or more years, or of two or more different companies, or of a company and its industry, are compared, analysed and interpreted.  To study the relative significance of every item of the Financial Statements, vertical analysis is useful. An important tool for such analysis is ‘Common-size Statement.’  Trend Analysis is a form of comparative analysis of Financial Statements between two or more years. It indicates the trend of individual items of the Financial Statements over a period of time. 

CHAPTER REVIEW QUIZ 1. State whether the following statements are true or false: a. Financial Statement Analysis is a tool which can be used by the management alone. b. The management decides which technique of Financial Statement Analysis fits best in a particular situation. c. Analysis of Financial Statements ignores the issue of price-level changes. d. Financial Statement Analysis should be restricted to Financial Statements alone. e. Horizontal analysis is used to compare the Financial Statements over a number of years. f. Fund Flow Statement is a part of Financial Statements. g. The choice of base year for Trend Analysis depends on the sales volume. h. Comparative Statement does not take into account the changes in the price level. i. Financial Statements include Cash Flow Statement too.

Accounting Ratios for Financial Statement Analysis

3

LEARNING OBJECTIVES On completion of the study of the chapter, you should be able to understand: What is Accounting Ratio? What is meant by Ratio Analysis? Importance, uses, advantages and limitations of Ratio Analysis. Structural Analysis of Financial Statements for the purpose of computation of different Ratios. Classification of Ratios on the basis of their sources. Computation of different Ratios from Financial Statements. Uses of various Ratios to analyse liquidity, solvency, profitability, Capital Structure, activity and the overall performance of an enterprise. How Ratios are applied to interpret Financial Statements of an enterprise. Du Pont Analysis of Financial Statements.

3.1 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Financial Statements are compilation of financial data, arranged and organized in a systematic and summarized manner according to the accounting principles, to assess financial position of an enterprise as regards to its profitability, operational efficiency, long- and short-term solvency, and growth potential. On the basis of the information as disclosed in the Financial Statements, users of them come to know about the growth, profitability, solvency and the financial strength of an enterprise. It is a tool in the hands of the management of an enterprise by which they present the financial position of the enterprise before the interested parties such as shareholders, lenders, creditors and so on. A number of statements prepared at the end of every Accounting Period are collectively called Financial Statements. Financial Statements include the following: i. Income Statement or Profit & Loss A/c. ii. Balance Sheet. iii. Fund Flow Statement. iv. Cash Flow Statement. 3.2 WHAT IS A RATIO? A Ratio is a relationship between two or more items expressed in mathematical terms. It is an expression of quantitative relationship between two amounts or items which is expressed in numbers or percentage. Say, there are 50 computers in an office where 200 employees are working. For identifying a quantitative relationship between the number of employees working and the number of computers used in the office, we should calculate Employee—Computer Ratio, which is 200 : 50 = 4 : 1. Therefore, a ‘ratio’ is a quantitative expression which exhibits a comparative relationship of one item with the other.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

3.3 WHAT IS AN ACCOUNTING RATIO? A Financial Ratio is a relationship between two or more Accounting Data expressed in mathematical terms. Therefore, Ratio calculated from different Accounting Data for exhibiting a meaningful and useful relationship between them is called ‘Accounting Ratio.’ Accounting information is obtained from the process of Financial Accounting, that is, from the Profit & Loss A/c and the Balance Sheet. Taking relevant data from these Financial Statements, Accounting Ratios are calculated and expressed either in terms of Ratio (e.g., 3:2) or in terms of number (e.g., 5 or 5 times) or in terms of percentage (e.g., 20%). Therefore, Accounting Ratio is a quantitative expression of various accounting information and exhibits a meaningful and useful relationship between them. 3.4 WHAT IS RATIO ANALYSIS? A single Accounting Data by itself may not communicate any meaningful and useful information, but when expressed in relation to some other data, it definitely conveys some significant information to the interested parties. Accordingly, Accounting Ratio is computed to obtain a relationship between two or more Accounting Data expressed in mathematical terms. The process of comparative analysis and interpretation of all these Accounting Ratios are called Ratio Analysis. Ratio Analysis a tool adopted for determining the quantitative relationship between two or more financial data as obtained from the Financial Statements. Analysing various Accounting Ratios in a systematic and meaningful manner, financial strength, weakness and growth potentiality of an enterprise can be identified. As every Accounting Ratio possesses its distinctive feature, some relevant Ratios of the same functional area are calculated and analysed for getting a conclusive idea about that functional area. Therefore, Ratio Analysis is a tool of Financial Statement Analysis for identifying financial strength, weakness and growth potentiality of an enterprise by means of determination, analysis and interpretation of relevant various Accounting Ratios. 3.5 STEPS IN RATIO ANALYSIS The Ratio Analysis requires three steps. They are: i. Selection of relevant various Accounting Data from the Financial Statements. ii. Computation of related Accounting Ratios using those selected Accounting Data. iii. Analysis and interpretation of those Accounting Ratios in a very significant, logical and useful manner with an objective to obtain some conclusive financial information of the enterprise. In the phase of Ratio Analysis, Computed Ratios are generally compared with some predetermined standards to make any comment as regards to the financial position of the enterprise. 3.6 ROLE OR IMPORTANCE OF RATIO ANALYSIS As Ratio Analysis is a very powerful tool of analysing Financial Statements, it plays a vital role to the facts of determining the financial strength and weakness of an enterprise. Its importance lies in the fact that it presents various information as obtained from the Financial Statements in a comparative way, and helps in analysing the performance of the enterprise. Ratio Analysis, as an analytical tool of Financial Statement Analysis, plays the following role: i. It measures and evaluates the financial condition of an enterprise. ii. It measures and evaluates liquidity, solvency, profitability, managerial efficiency, Capital Structure and activity of an enterprise. iii. It measures and evaluates the operating effectiveness of an enterprise. iv. It provides adequate information as regards to the direction of financial changes of an enterprise. v. It identifies the functional areas within the business where adoption of remedial measures are needed. vi. It helps the management in the course of Decision Making process. vii. It helps in predicting the future condition of the business. viii. It is essential for coordinating the various functional machineries of an enterprise. ix. It serves as integral part of Budgetary Control System.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

iii. As the Ratios are calculated on the basis of the past results, a proper prediction for future may not always be dependable. iv. A Single Ratio calculated for any functional area of a business does not convey its conclusive state. A series of Ratios is needed to get any conclusive idea about that area of the business. v. It is formulated on the basis of historical figures as obtained from the Financial Statements. Performance of a concern based on the historical data does not always indicate its present real condition. vi. The Price Level changes very often distort the Trend Analysis process, which is done with the help of various Ratios calculated in the process of Ratio Analysis. vii. Generally, different firms follow different accounting principles and policies. Under such a circumstance, inter-firm comparison with the help of Ratio Analysis process does not exhibit a real picture at all. Inter-firm comparison with the help of Ratio Analysis process only becomes effective when the concerned firms follow the uniform accounting principles and policies. viii. Intra-firm comparison through the process of Ratio Analysis may also be proved worthless if the uniform accounting principles and policies are not observed in different units of the same concern. ix. Some special events may not be disclosed through the process of Ratio Analysis, for example, debentures might be maturing very shortly for repayment, which cannot be identified from the Ratios. x. The Ratios should be studied in the proper context. To have a practical experience and thorough knowledge about the particular industry are very much essential for an effective Ratio Analysis. Otherwise, it may prove to be absolutely worthless. xi. Ratio Analysis may be a very useful tool in the hands of an expert analyst, but is not so in the hands of common persons. 3.10 PARTIES INTERESTED IN RATIO ANALYSIS Following parties are generally interested in Ratio Analysis, in and around a concern, for different reasons as follows: i. Shareholders: Interested in the rate of return on capital, that is, Gross Profit (GP) Ratio, Net Profit Ratio and Earnings per Share (EPS), which are again sub-divided as: (i) Primary EPS; (ii) Diluted EPS; (iii) Dividends per Share (DPS); etc. ii. Debentureholders: Interested in the Profit Earning Capacity and solvency of the business. iii. Creditors: Interested in the interest cover, solvency and liquidity of the business. iv. Bankers: Interested in solvency, liquidity and interest cover, i.e., in Current Ratio, Liquid Ratio, Interest Coverage Ratio, etc. v. Management: Interested in profitability, efficiency, production, capacity utilization, etc.—i.e., in Stock Turnover Ratio, Turnover to Capital Employed, Turnover to Fixed Assets, etc. vi. Government: Interested in profitability, capacity utilization, solvency, etc. 3.11 DIFFERENT KINDS OF RATIOS OR CLASSIFICATION OF RATIOS Accounting Ratios may be broadly classified into the following categories: i. Balance Sheet Ratios: Ratios calculated from the different items as appearing in the Balance Sheet of a concern are called Balance Sheet Ratios, e.g., Current Ratio, Liquid Ratio, Proprietary Ratio, Capital Gearing Ratio, Debt-Equity Ratio, etc. ii. Revenue Statement Ratios: Ratios calculated from the different items as appearing in the Profit & Loss A/c of a concern are called Revenue Statement Ratios, e.g., GP Ratio, Net Profit Ratio, Operating Ratio, Stock Turnover Ratio, etc. iii. Mixed or Composite Ratios: Ratios calculated taking some items as appearing in the Balance Sheet and taking some items as appearing in the Profit & Loss A/c are called Mixed or Composite Ratios, e.g., Return on Net Worth, Return on Investment (ROI), Capital Turnover Ratio, Debtors’/Creditors’ Turnover/Velocity Ratio, Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio, Turnover of Total Assets, etc.

ACCOUNTING RATIOS FOR FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS

3.12 STANDARD OR IDEAL RATIO For the purpose of Ratio Analysis, it is essential to compare the actual Ratios as computed with some predetermined Standard or Ideal Ratios, any deviation from which is identified as the positive or negative feature of the business, as the case may be. Therefore, a Standard or Ideal Ratio is a predetermined calculated Ratio, which is considered to be normal or standard, or which is the most meaningful or significant, or which is the most effectively applicable universally to different industries under different times. For identifying the strength or weakness of the business, the actual Ratios are compared with these standard or Ideal Ratios. Hence, the Standard Ratios are the yardstick for the determination of strength or weakness of a firm, and the significance of an Accounting Ratio is highly increased when it is compared with the predetermined relevant standard Ratio. It should be noted that calculation of such Standard/Ideal Ratio is really a very difficult task due to a number of external and internal factors. Tutorial Note Ratios are computed taking various data from the Financial Statements. For this purpose, Financial Statements mean the Balance Sheet and the Profit & Loss A/c (i.e., Revenue Statement). Ratios calculated taking different data from the Balance Sheet are called ‘Balance Sheet Ratios,’ Ratios calculated taking different data from the Profit & Loss A/c are called Revenue Statement Ratios and Ratios calculated taking some data from the Profit & Loss A/c and the remaining data from the Balance Sheet are called Mixed or Composite Ratios. For an easy understanding of the topic, students should have a crystal-clear idea about the composition of the Balance Sheet. Different forms of a company Balance Sheet, its composition and its miniature presentation are discussed in the following under Para 3.13. Students are advised to follow this part of the topic very carefully to gather a conceptual idea about Ratio Analysis.

3.13 COMPUTATION OF PROPRIETORS’ FUND, CAPITAL EMPLOYED, WORKING CAPITAL Ratios are calculated taking different Accounting Data from the Financial Statements. For a better understanding of Accounting Ratios, it is very much essential to have a clear concept as regards to the Balance Sheet of a company. The proforma of a company Balance Sheet as given in the Schedule VI of the Companies Act is shown as follows: Balance Sheet of a company Amount Rs.

While analysing the Accounting Ratios, the investments are not separately identified. If it is of a long termnature, then it can be classified under Fixed Assets. On the other hand, if it is of a short-term nature, then it can be classified under Current Assets. Accordingly, investments are shown either as a part of Fixed Assets or as a part of Current Assets, while ascertaining and analysing the Accounting Ratio, depending upon their nature. As a consequence of the above consideration, the portrait of a company Balance Sheet is slightly changed as compared to the proforma as given under the Schedule VI of the Companies Act. For the purpose of ascertaining and better analysing the Accounting Ratio, the changed portrait of the company Balance Sheet is shown as follows: Balance Sheet of a company Amount Rs.

3.14 CALCULATION AND INTERPRETATION OF VARIOUS RATIOS 3.14.1 Balance Sheet Ratios (Ratios as ascertained from various items of the Balance Sheet) 1. Current Ratio Current Assets (CA) Current Ratio = Current Liabilities (CL) Notes: i. This Ratio indicates whether an enterprise possesses sufficient Current Assets to pay off its Current Liabilities. This Ratio is an indicator of short-term solvency or liquidity position of an enterprise. ii. Conventional standard or Ideal Ratio is 2 : 1, i.e., the enterprise should have twice the Current Assets than the Current Liabilities, to exhibit ideal short-term solvency position. iii. As CAs – CLs = WC. This Ratio is also called Working Capital Ratio and it indicates the quantum of the Working Capital (WC) of an enterprise. iv. Current Assets = Stock + Debtors + Cash at Bank + Cash in Hand + Prepaid Expenses + Accrued incomes, etc v. Current Liabilities = Creditors + Bills Payable + Outstanding Expenses + Prereceived Incomes + Bank Overdraft, etc 2. Liquid/Quick/Acid Test Ratio Liquid/Quick/Acid Test Ratio = =

Liquid/Quick Assets Liquid/Quick Liabilities Current Asset–Stock Current Liabilities–Bank Overdraft

Notes: i. This Ratio indicates whether an enterprise possesses sufficient liquid/quick assets to pay off its liquid/quick liabilities. This Ratio is an indicator of the liquidity position of an enterprise. ii. Liquid or Quick asset means the asset which is receivable within a financial year during which it comes into existence and more easily convertible into cash. ∴ Liquid/Quick Assets = Current Assets − Stock iii. Liquid or Quick Liability means the Liability which is payable within a financial year and more quickly payable in cash. ∴ Liquid/Quick Liabilities = Current Liabilities − Bank Overdraft iv. Conventional standard or Ideal Ratio is at least 1:1, i.e., an enterprise should have at least an equal amount of liquid/quick assets to pay off its liquid/quick liabilities. 3. Proprietary Ratio or Net Worth to Total Assets Proprietary Ratio =

Proprietors’ Fund Total Assets

Notes: i. The Standard or Ideal Ratio may be considered in between 0.75. and 1. ii. Proprietors’ Fund = Net Worth = Share Capital + Reserves & Surplus – Miscellaneous Expenditure – Profit & Loss A/c (Dr) iii. Total Assets = Fixed Assets + Current Assets iv. This Ratio indicates the portion of Total Assets acquired out of Shareholders’ Fund. This is an indicator of the efficiency of the management regarding formulation of financial planning. 4. Fixed Asset Proprietorship Ratio or FAs to Net Worth Fixed Asset Proprietorship Ratio =

Fixed Assets Proprietors’ Fund

Notes: i. This Ratio indicates the portion of Proprietors’ Fund or Shareholders’ Fund invested in Fixed Assets. It is also an indicator of the efficiency of the management regarding the formulation of the financial planning. ii. Proprietors’ Fund = Net Worth = Share Capital + Reserves & Surplus – Miscellaneous Expenditure – Profit & Loss A/c (Dr) 5. Debt-Equity Ratio This Ratio may be expressed in different manner as written in the following: Debt i. Debt-Equity Ratio = Equity Debt Capital Long-term Loan = = Shareholders’ equity Proprietors’ Fund ii. Debt-Equity Ratio = = = iii. Debt-Equity Ratio = =

Debt Debt + Equity Long-term Loan Long-term Loan + Proprietors’ Fund Long-term Loan Capital Employed Total Debt Shareholders’ Equity Long-term Debt + Short-term Debt Proprietors’ Fund

Notes: i. Out of the above three expressions of Debt-Equity Ratio, the expression written under (a) above is commonly followed. ii. This Ratio indicates the proportion of Debt Capital and Owners’ Capital included in the Capital Structure. This is an indicator of the Capital Structure of an enterprise. It also shows the efficiency of the management in financial planning.

Notes: i. Cost of Goods Sold (CGS) = Sales – GP Opening Stock + Closing Stock 2 iii. Where the CGS cannot be ascertained, it may be replaced by sales, i.e., in the absence of adequate Sales . information regarding the CGS, the Ratio may be taken as Average Stock iv. In the absence of an adequate information as regards to the Opening Stock, it should be assumed that, Closing Stock = Opening Stock. In that circumstance, ii. Average Stock =

Closing Stock + Closing Stock 2 2 Closing Stock = = Closing Stocks 2 v. Where this is given in terms of Ratio or number or times, the problem can directly be solved with the help of the formula as given above. But, where this is given in terms of period (i.e., months or weeks or days), the problem can be solved with the help of the formula as given above after converting the given period in terms of Ratio or number or times as follows: 12 months 52 weeks 365 days or or Given months Given weeks Given days Average Stock =

7. Operating Leverage Operating Leverage =

Contribution EBIT

Notes: i. Contribution = Sales − Variable Cost = Fixed Operating Cost + Operating Profit (i.e., EBIT) ii. EBIT/PBIT = Operating Earnings/Profit before Interest and Tax iii. Operating Leverage measures the relationship between the sales revenue and the Earnings/ Profits before Interest and Tax (EBIT/PBIT), i.e., it measures the effect of change in the Sales Revenue on the level of EBIT (i.e., operating profit). iv. If the Degree of Operating Leverage (DOL) = 1, there is no operating leverage, i.e., no fixed operating cost. The value of DOL must be greater than 1 for identifying the fixed operating cost. Higher the Fixed Costs in relation to the Variable Costs, greater would be the DOL. 8. Financial Leverage Financial Leverage =

EBIT EBT

Notes: i. EBT/PBT = Operating Earnings/Profit after Interest but before Tax ii. EBIT/PBIT = Operating Earnings/Profits before Interest and Tax iii. Financial leverage measures the relationship between the EBIT and the EPS, and it reflects the effect of changes in EBIT on the level of EPS, i.e., it measures the responsiveness of the EPS to a change in EBIT. iv. If the Degree of Financial Leverage (DFL) = 1, there is no Financial Leverage, i.e., no Fixed Financial charges in the form of interest on loan. The value of DFL must be greater than 1 for identifying the fixed financial charges. Higher the fixed financial charges, greater would be the DFL. 9. Combined Leverage Combined Leverage =

Contribution EBT

Notes: i. EBT = Operating Earnings/Profits after Interest but before Tax ii. Contribution = Sales − Variable Cost = Fixed Operating Cost + Operating Profit (i.e., EBIT) iii. The total risk involved in a firm can be determined by combining the operating and financial leverage. Hence, the combined effect of operating and financial leverage provides a risk profile of the firm. Higher Degree of Combined Leverage (DCL) indicates a greater risk of the business, i.e., existence of greater amount of fixed operating and financial charges. 10.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Notes: i. Net Profit after Tax and Preference Dividend = Earnings after Tax (EAT) – Preference Dividend. ii. This Ratio is an indicator of the amount of revenue profit of the concern that goes to each equity share. More clearly, it indicates the quantum of earnings of the company that is receivable by each equity share. iii. As per Accounting Standard 20 (AS 20), EPS is divided into two parts: (a) Primary/Basic EPS and (b) Diluted EPS. Primary NP Attributable to Equity Shareholders a. = Basic EPS Average Number of Equity Shares Outstanding b. Diluted EPS =

Adjusted NP attributable to Equity Shareholders Adjusted Weighted Average Number of Shares Outstanding

11. Dividends per Share Dividend per Share (DPS) =

Total Equity Dividend for a year No. of Equity Shares

Notes: i. This Ratio is an indicator of the amount of dividend payable against each equity share. More clearly, it indicates the quantum of dividend distributed/distributable to each equity share. 12. Dividend Payout Ratio Dividend Payout Ratio (D/P Ratio) =

DPS × 100 EPS

Notes: i. DPS = Dividends per Share (equity) ii. EPS = Earnings per Share (equity) iii. This Ratio is an indicator of the percentage of earning of the concern distributed as dividend among the shareholders (equity). D/P Ratio varies from 0% to 100%. When the D/P Ratio is 0%, it indicates that no dividend is declared out of the earning for a year. On the other hand, when the D/P Ratio is 0%, it indicates that the entire earning for a year is distributed as a dividend. Therefore, a higher ratio signifies a higher amount of dividend and a lower ratio indicates a lesser amount of dividend. 13. Price Earning Ratio Price Earning Ratio (P/E Ratio) =

MPS × 100 EPS

Notes: i. MPS = Market Price per Share (equity) ii. EPS = Earnings per Share (Equity) iii. This Ratio is an indicator of the relationship between the prevailing MPS and the earning of a concern that currently goes to each share. In other words, it indicates the relationship between the investment against each share and the earning from each share. 14. Debt Service Coverage Ratio Debt Service Coverage Ratio =

Notes: i. Cash Profit before interest and tax = Net Profit (NP) + All non-cash items debited to Profit & Loss A/c − All non-cash items credited to Profit & Loss A/c + Interest on Loan + Tax ii. This Ratio is an indicator of firm’s ability to pay the instalment due on loan and interest on loan, out of its cash profit earned during a year. Higher Ratio signifies the greater ability of the firm to pay the instalment due on loan and interest on loan, out of its cash profit earned during a year. 3.15 DU PONT ANALYSIS Return on Investment (ROI) or Return on Total Assets represents the earning capacity of an enterprise and is the most vital Ratio for evaluating the profit earning position of the enterprise. ROI or Return on Total Assets is nothing but the combination of two other very important Ratios—one is the Net Profit (NP) Ratio and the other is the Total Asset Turnover Ratio. If either of these two Ratios changes, there would be a consequent change in ROI. ROI is expressed as follows: Return on Investment (ROI) or Return on Total Assets = NP Ratio × Total Asset Turnover Ratio Net Profit after Tax (EAT) Sales = × Sales Total Assets =

Net Profit after Tax (EAT) Total Assets

On the other hand, financial leverage multiplier (FLM) represents the extent of the Total Assets of an enterprise that is contributed by the equity shareholders. In other words, FLM shows the proportion of the Total Assets of an enterprise that are acquired out of Equity Shareholders’ Fund. FLM is expressed as follows: Total Assets Financial Leverage Multiplier (FLM) = Equity Shareholders’Fund Combining ROI and FLM, return on equity (ROE) can be derived as follows: ROE = ROI × FLM = =

Net Profit after Tax (EAT) Total Assets

×

Total Assets Equity Shareholders’ Fund

Net Profit after Tax (EAT) Equity Shareholders’ Fund

Du Pont system of financial analysis is one of the most effective technique of earning capacity or profitability analysis of an enterprise. Under this system of financial analysis, ROI is defined as the product of the NP Ratio and the Total Asset Turnover Ratio (as shown in the above equation). On the other hand, FLM is defined as the Total Assets divided by Equity Shareholders’ Fund (as shown above). Combining these two, ROE is derived (as also shown in the same). Under Du Pont Analysis, various factors which influence ROE (as well as ROI) are diagrammatically exhibited with the help of a chart, which is popularly known as Du Pont Chart, as it was firstly developed and applied by Du Pont Company of the United States, in its annual report. Du Pont Analysis enables the enterprise to break its ROE into three major components, in order to identify the area that is responsible for the profit-earning capacity of the enterprise. These three components are: profit on sales (i.e., Net Profit Ratio), efficient use of assets (i.e., Total Asset Turnover Ratio) and use of leverage in the Capital Structure (i.e., Financial Leverage Multiplier). Effect of these three components on ROE of an enterprise is expressed as follows: ROE = (Net Profit Ratio × Total Asset Turnover Ratio) × FLM = ROI × FLM

Problem 10 A company has a profit margin of 20% and asset turnover of 3 times. What is the company’s ROI? How will this ROI vary if: i. Profit Margin is increased by 5%? ii. Asset Turnover is decreased to 2 times? iii. Profit Margin is decreased by 5% and Asset Turnover is increased to 4 times? [B.Com. (Hons), Calcutta University—2008] Solution Here, Profit Margin = 20%. i.e., if Sales = 100, then Profit = 20 Sales Again, Asset Turnover = =3 Total Assets

ii. Profitability of operation of the company remarkably declines from 586 (Rs. in lakhs) to 170 (Rs. in lakhs), due to a huge increase in the operating expenses during the year 2005–06. NP of the company also reduces due to an increase in the interest expenses. During the year 2005–06, both Fixed Operating Expense as well as fixed financial expense have increased, as a consequence of which the NP of the company radically reduced. During 2005–06, both operating and Financial Leverages have become adverse, as a result of which the company has been crucially suffering from a liquidity crisis during the year 2005–06. Working Notes 1.

Problem 12 Following information is available from the Financial Statements of K Ltd for the year that ended on 31 March 2006: i. Inventory Turnover Ratio is 6 times, Closing Debtors are outstanding for 2 months and Closing Creditors are outstanding for 73 days. ii. Ratio of CGS to: Proprietors’ Fund is 2 : 1. Fixed Asset is 4 : 1. iii. GP Ratio is 20%. iv. Closing Stock is greater than the opening stock by Rs. 10,000. v. GP for the year that ended on 31 March 2006 is Rs. 1,20,000. vi. Reserves and surplus appearing in the Balance Sheet as on 31 March 2006 is Rs. 40,000. You are asked to calclaute the following: (i) Proprietors’ Fund; (ii) Fixed Asset; (iii) Closing Debtors; (iv) Closing Creditors; (v) Closing Stock; (vi) Share Capital. Solution i. Ratio of CGS to Proprietors’ Fund = 2:1 Cost of Goods Sold 2 or = Proprietors’ Fund 1 or

4,80,0001 2 = Proprietors’ Fund 1

∴ Proprietors’ Fund =

4,80,000 = Rs. 2,40,000 4

ii. Ratio of CGS to Fixed Asset = 4:1 or

Cost of Goods Sold 4 = Fixed Asset 1

or

4,80,0001 4 = Fixed Asset 1

∴ Fixed Asset =

4,80,000 = Rs. 1,20,000 4

iii. Debt Collection Period = 2 months. ∴ Debtors’ Turnover Ratio = or

In the absence of adequate information, it is assumed that Bills Receivable = Nil ∴ Receivables = Debtors + Nil or 1,00,000 = Debtors ∴ Closing Debtors = Rs. 1,00,000 iv. Average Payment Period = 73 days ∴ Creditors’ Turnover Ratio = or

Credit Purchases =5 Payables

or

4,90,000 =5 Payables

365 Days 365 Days = =5 Average Payment Period 73 Days

4,90,0001 = Rs.98,000 5 Again, Payables = Creditors + Bills payable Here, it is assumed that Bills payable = Nil ∴ Payables = Creditors + Nil or 98,000 = Creditors ∴ Closing Creditors = Rs. 98,000 ∴ Payables =

But, Average Stock =

Opening Stock + Closing Stock 2

Again, according to the question, Closing stock − Opening stock = 10,000 ∴ Opening stock = Closing stock – 10,000 (Closing Stock − 10,000) + Closing Stock 2 2 Closing Stock − 10,000 or 80,000 = 2 or 2 Closing Stock – 10,000 = 1,60,000 ∴ Average Stock =

or

vi. Proprietors’ Fund = Share Capital + Reserves & Surplus – Miscellaneous Expenditure Here, 2,40,000 = Share Capital + 40,000 – Nil [Assumed that Miscellaneous expenditure = Nil] ∴ Share Capital = 2,40,000 – 40,000 = Rs. 2,00,000

Working Notes 1. Calculation of CGS GP ratio =

Gross Profit × 100 = 20% Sales

∴ GP rate = 20% or = 1÷ 5 on Sales i.e., If Sales = 5, then GP = 1 CGS = 4 ∴ Rate of GP on CGS Gross Profit 1 = = Cost of Goods Sold 4 1,20,000 1 or = Cost of Goods Sold 4

∴ CGS = Rs. 4,80,000 2. Calculation of Credit Sales Gross Profit GP ratio = × 100 Sales or 20 =

1,20,000 × 100 Sales

1,20,000 × 100 = Rs. 6,00,000 20 In the absence of adequate information, it is assumed that the entire sales have been made on credit. ∴ Total Sales = Credit Sales = Rs. 6,00,000 ∴ Sales =

3. Calculation of Credit Purchases We know that Opening Stock + Purchases = Materials Consumed + Closing Stock ∴ Purchases = Materials Consumed + Closing Stock − Opening Stock In the absence of adequate information regarding seggragation of the CGS, it is assumed that the CGS includes materials consumed only. ∴ Materials Consumed = CGS = Rs. 4,80,000 Again, Closing Stock is greater than the Opening Stock by Rs. 10,000 ∴ Closing Stock − Opening Stock = Rs. 10,000 ∴ Purchases = 4,80,0000 + 10,000 = Rs. 4,90,000 In the absence of adequate information, it is assumed that the entire purchases have been made on credit. ∴ Total Purchases = Credit Purchases = Rs. 4,90,000

∴ Long-term loan = 0.375 × 16,00,000 = Rs. 6,00,000 4. In a company Balance Sheet, we know that Net Worth + Long-term Loans = Fixed Assets + Working Capital Here, 16,00,000 + 6,00,000 = 20,00,000 + Working Capital ∴ Working Capital = Rs. 2,00,000 CA Again, Current Ratio = CL CA or 1.5 = CL ∴ CA = 1.5 CL.

Again, Receivables = Debtors + Bills Receivable Here, 7,50,000 = Debtors + 50,000 ∴Debtors = Rs. 7,00,000 3. Let the value of Stock as on 01 April 2006 (i.e., Opening Stock) be x. ∴Value of Stock as on 31 March 2007 (i.e., Closing stock) = x + 30,000 ∴ Average Stock = ( Opening Stock + Closing Stock ) = ⎡⎣ x + ( x + 30,000 )⎤⎦ = x + 15,000 2 2 Again, CGS = Sales − GP = 30,00,000 – 7,50,000 = Rs. 22,50,000 Here, Stock Velocity = 4 months ∴ Stock − Velocity Ratio = 12 months = 3 4 months CGS =3 or Average Stock 22,50,000 =3 or x ( + 15,000) or 3x + 45,000 = 22,50,000 or 3x = 22,50,000 − 45,000 ∴ x = 22,05,000 = 7,35,000 3 ∴ Opening Stock = x = Rs. 7,35,000 ∴ Closing Stock = x + 30,000 = Rs. 7,65,000 4. We know, in case of a trading concern, Opening Stock + Purchases = CGS + Closing Stock Here, 7,35,000 + Purchases = 22,50,000 + 7,65,000 ∴ Purchases = Rs. 22,80,000 Again, Creditors’ Velocity = 2 months Credit Purchases 12 months ∴ Creditors’ Velocity Ratio = =6 = 6‚ or Payables 2 months 22,80,000 = 6 [ assumed that the entire purchases were made on credit ] or Payables ∴ Payables = 22,80,000 = Rs. 3,80,000 6 Again, Payables = Creditors + Bills Payable Here, 3,80,000 = Creditors + 45,000 ∴ Creditors = Rs. 3,35,000 Turnover 5.

∴FA = 0.6 PF Again, as per company Balance Sheet, we know that Proprietors’ Fund (PF) + Long-term Loan (LTL) = Fixed Asset (FA) + Working Capital (WC) Here, PF = FAs + WC [as here, LT Loans = Nil] or PF = 0.6 PF + 1,20,000 or 0.4 PF = 1,20,000 ∴ Proprietors’ Fund (PF) = Rs. 3,00,000 ∴ Fixed Asset (FA) = 0.6 × 3,00,000 = Rs. 1,80,000 5. Proprietors’ Fund (PF) = Share Capital (SC) + Reserves & Surplus (RS) − Miscellaneous Expenditure (ME) Here, 3,00,0004 = 2,50,000 + RS – Nil [as here, Miscellaneous expenditure = Nil] ∴Reserves & Surplus (RS) = Rs. 50,000 6.

As the debenture interest rate is 7%, Value of 7% Debentures = 21,000 × 100 ÷ 7 = Rs. 3,00,000 ∴Net Profit after interest & tax = Net Profit before Interest – Interest – Tax = 1,68,0004 – 21,000 – Nil = Rs. 1,47,000 6. In a Balance Sheet, Proprietors’ Fund + Long-term Loan = Fixed Asset + Working Capital Here, Proprietors’ Fund + 3,00,000 = 10,50,000 + 9,00,000 ∴Proprietors’ Fund = Rs. 16,50,000 Now, Reserve to Capital = 0.20

or

Reserves & Surplus 1 = Share Capital 5

∴Share Capital = 5 × Reserves & Surplus Again, Proprietors’ Fund = Share Capital + Reserves & Surplus – Miscellaneous Expenditure or

16,50,000 = 5 × Reserves & Surplus + Reserves & Surplus – Nil [assuming that Miscellaneous Expenditure = Nil]

∴Reserves & Surplus = 16,50,000 ÷ 6 = Rs. 2,75,000 ∴ Share Capital = 5 × 2,75,000 = Rs. 13,75,000 7. Current Ratio =

Current Assets (CAs) 5 = 2.5 = Current Liabilities (CLs) 2

∴ Working Capital = CAs − CLs = 5 − 2 = 3 Again, given Working Capital = Rs. 9,00,000 ∴Current Liabilities (CLs) = 2/3 × Rs. 9,00,000 = Rs. 6,00,000 ∴ Current Assets (CAs) = 5/3 × Rs. 9,00,000 = Rs. 15,00,000 Again, Quick Ratio =

Liquid Assets (CAs – Stock ) = = 1.5 Liquid Liabilities ( CLs – Bank Overdraft )

Here, ⎡⎣15,00,000 – (3,15,000 + 4,20,000 )⎤⎦ = 1.5 (6,00,000 − Bank Overdraft ) or

7,65,000 = 9,00,000 − 1.5 × Bank Overdraft

∴Bank Overdraft = 1,35,000 ÷ 1.5 = Rs. 90,000 Here, Current Liabilities (CLs) = Quick Liabilities + Bank Overdraft or

6,00,000 = Quick Liabilities + 90,000

∴Quick Liabilities = Rs. 5,10,000 8. Debt Collection Period = 2 months ∴ Debtors’ Turnover Ratio =

12 months =6 2 months

or

Credit Sales = 6 [ assumed that all sales were made on credit ] Receivables

or

21,00,000 =6 Receivables

∴Receivables = 21,00,000 ÷ 6 = Rs. 3,50,000 9. Current Asset = Stock of Finished Goods + Stock of Raw Materials + Receivables + Cash & Bank or

15,00,000 = 3,15,000 + 4,20,000 + 3,50,000 + Cash & Bank

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

∴Current Assets (CAs) = 1.75/0.75 × 60,600 = Rs. 1,41,400 ∴Current Liabilities (CLs) = 1/0.75 × 60,600 = Rs. 80,800 Now, Liquidity Aatio =

(Debtors + Bank ) = 1.25 CLs

Here, CAs = Stock + Debtors + Bank ∴Debtors + Bank = CAs − Stock ∴

(CAs − Stock) = 1.25 CLs

or (1,41,400 − Stock) ÷ 80,800 = 1.25 or 1,01,000 = 1,41,400 − Stock ∴ Stock = Rs. 40,400 2. Average Rate of turnover of Stock [based on cost] = 5.26 Cost of Goods Sold or = 5.26 Average Stock Here, in the absence of adequate information, it is considered that Opening Stock = Closing Stock ∴ Average Stock = Closing Stock = Rs. 40,400 or

Cost of Goods Sold = 5.26 Closing Stock

or

Cost of Goods Sold = 5.26 40,400

∴ Cost of Goods Sold = Rs. 2,12,504 Again, Gross Profit = 20% on Sales = 1/5 on Sales = 1/4 on Cost of Goods Sold = 1/4 on 2,12,504 = Rs. 53,126 ∴ Sales (i.e., Turnover) = Cost of Goods Sold + Gross Profit = 2,12,504 + 53,126 = Rs. 2,65,630 3. Net Profit = 16% on Share Capital = 16% on 1,20,000 = Rs. 19,200 ∴ Other Operating Expenses Debited to Profit & Loss A/c = Gross Profit − Net Profit = 53,126 – 19,200 = Rs. 33,926

4. Average Collection Period = 2 months Debtors’ Velocity Ratio =

Working Notes 1. NP to Sales = 5% NP = 5% or Sales or

NP = 5% 20,00,000

∴ NP (i.e., EAT) = 5% of 20,00,000 = Rs. 1,00,000 Here, Rate of Income Tax = 50% [of Earnings before Tax] ∴ Income Tax = 50/50 × EAT = 50/50 × 1,00,000 = Rs. 1,00,000 ∴ Earnings before Interest & Tax (EBIT) = EAT + Income Tax + Debenture Interest = 1,00,000 + 1,00,000 + 10,000 = Rs. 2,10,000 2. Operating Expenses = Sales − (CGS + EBIT) = 20,00,000 − (6,00,000 + 2,10,000) = Rs. 11,90,000 3. Debenture Interest @ 10% = Rs. 10,000 ∴ 10% Debentures = 100/10 × 10,000 = Rs. 1,00,000 4.

Again, Share Capital to Reserves = 4:1 or

Share Capital 4 = Reserves & Surplus 1

∴ Share Capital = 4 × Reserves & Surplus Here, Net Worth = Share Capital + Reserves & Surplus or 5,50,000 = 4 × Reserves & Surplus + Reserves & Surplus or 5 × Reserves & Surplus = 5,50,000 ∴ Reserves & Surplus = Rs. 1,10,000 ∴ Share Capital = 4 × 1,10,000 = Rs. 4,40,000 5. Inventory Turnover = 15 times or

CGS = 15 Average Stock

or

6,00,000 = 15 Average Stock

∴ Average Stock = 6,00,000 ÷ 15 = Rs. 40,000 Here, in the absence of adequate information, it is assumed that, Opening Stock = Closing Stock ∴ Closing Stock = Average Stock = Rs. 40,000 6. Current Ratio = or

CAs = 1.5 CLs

CAs = 1.5 [Here, CLs = Sundry Creditors only ] 60,000

∴ CA = 60,000 × 1.5 = Rs. 90,000 Here, CAs = Stock + Debtors + Cash or 90,000 = 40,000 + 35,000 + Cash ∴Cash = Rs. 15,000 7. In every Balance Sheet, Total Liabilities = Total Assets Here, Total Liabilities = Rs. 7,10,000 ∴ Total Assets = Rs. 7,10,000 Again, Total Assets = Fixed Assets + Current Assets or 7,10,000 = FAs + 90,000 ∴ Fixed Assets = Rs. 6,20,000

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Solution Absolute Liquid Ratio =

Cash in hand & at bank + Short-termInvestment

Liquid Liabilities This Ratio indicates the position of cash and cash equivalents of a concern to pay off its liquid liabilities. Cash Position to Total Asset Ratio =

Cash in hand & at bank + Short-term Investments Total Assets

This Ratio indicates the proportion of Liquid Assets out of the Total Assets deployed by a concern. Cash interval expresses an idea about the time length that can be covered by the available cash and cash equivalents for meeting its operating expenses. After analysing the above comparative data of X Ltd and the industry average, the following observations can be identified: i. Absolute Liquid Ratio of X Ltd is better than the industry average. ii. Cash position to Total Asset Ratio of X Ltd is lower than the industry average. iii. Cash interval of X Ltd is also lower than that of the industry average. Hence, it can be concluded by an overall analysis of the above comparative data that X Ltd maintains a comparatively lower cash position than the industry average. Therefore, it is advised to increase the cash position of X Ltd. Problem 39 The operating performance of three divisions of a company for the year that ended on 31 March 2006 is given as follows: Sales Operating Profit Investment

i. a. On the basis of Operating Profit Margin, Division I is the most profitable division as it gives the highest profit margin on sales. b. On the basis of ROI, Division III is the most profitable division as it gives the highest return on the total investment. ii. Success of a concern is measured by the return to its owner from the business at the end of an accounting period. Although the operating success of the concern is reflected through its Operating Profit Margin, but its overall operating performance is evaluated by the return that it has been earning from its total Capital Employed in the business and return to the owner of the business. Accordingly, ROI (i.e., Return on the Total Capital Employed) provides a better indication of the overall operating performance of a concern, as it reflects the return against the total long-term fund invested into the business. In spite of earning a good Operating Profit Margin, a concern cannot sustain in the long run if it does not get a return on its total investment.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Solution A. Test of Solvency Positions: I. Short-term solvency position: i. Current Ratio = ii. Liquid Ratio =

CAs 12,00,0001 = = 1.2:1 CLs 10,00,0002

(CAs − Stock ) Liquid Assets 6,00,0001 = = = 0.63 :1 Liquid Liabilities (CLs – Bank Overdraft ) 9,50,0002

 Comment Both Current Ratio and Liquid Ratio of the company are lower than the Ideal Ratios of 2:1 and at least 1:1, respectively. Here, the company does not have sufficient Liquid Assets to pay off its liquid liabilities (as the Liquid Ratio is less than 1). On the other hand, the Current Assets of the company are marginally exceeding its Current Liabilities, not the the double as it should be. Hence, the short-term solvency position of the company is well below the ideal level and the company should try to improve its short-term solvency position.

II. Long-term solvency position: i.

Proprietary Ratio =

ii. Debt-Equity Ratio =

Proprietors’ Fund 23,00,0003 = = 0.6053 :1 Total Assets 38,00,000 Long-term Debt Debt = Equity Proprietors’ Fund

= 5,00,000 ÷ 23,00,0003 = 0.2174 : 1 iii. Capital Gearing Ratio = Fixed Interest Bearing Securities Ordinary Securities =

(Debenture + Preference Share Capital ) Equity Shareholders’ Fund

= (5,00,000 + 8,00,000) ÷ 15,00,0003 = 0.87 : 1 iv. Interest Coverage Ratio =

Net PBIT 3,75,0004 = = 15 Interest 25,000

 Comment Proprietary Ratio of the company shows that more than 60% of its assets are funded by its own capital. Debt-Equity Ratio expresses that the own capital invested in the business is almost 5 times of the debt capital. The Capital Gearing Ratio exhibits that it is a low-geared company, as the said Ratio is just below 1. The Interest Coverage Ratio shows that the annual interest of the company is covered by its profit by as high as 15 times. Therefore, as far as the long-term solvency is concerned, it can be concluded that all the above Ratios indicate the sound solvency position of the company, even though the company is unable to reap the benefit of trading on equity through more long-term borrowings.

PBIT 3,65,0004 = = 1.0735 PBT 3,40,0004

 Comment Gross Profit Ratio shows a high rate of Gross Profit earned on sales, but the rates of Net Profit and operating profit are considerably lower than the Gross Profit rate. This is because of the huge amount of indirect operating expenses that the company has incurred during the year. Due to a similar reason, Return on Investment is also lower. Return on Net Worth is higher than the Return on Investment due to a negligible amount of interest on the borrowed capital. Return on Equity Shareholders’ Fund is also higher than the Return on Net Worth due to the low rate of preference dividend. Financial leverage equal to almost 1 indicates a negligible amount of interest on the borrowed capital. Hence, the overall profitability of the company is satisfactory with the exception of the fact that it has currently incurred a huge amount of indirect operating expenses. The company should try to reduce its indirect operating expenses so as to increase its overall return.

5. Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio =

6. Working Capital Turnover Ratio =

Sales 21,00,000 = = 10.50 WC 2,00,00010

 Comment Stock Turnover Ratio of 2.80 indicates that the company’s stock-holding period is too long. Debtors’ Turnover Ratio of 3.62 also indicates the company’s longer Debt Collection Period. Accordingly, a substantial amount of WC is being blocked for a prolonged period in stock and debtors. On the other hand, the Creditors’ Turnover Ratio of 1.77 indicates that the company’s creditors’ payment period is abnormally long, which may cast a stigma on its reputation in the market. As a combination of all the above facts, the company is having a very little amount of net WC in its hand. High Working Capital Turnover Ratio indicates that the company has the ability to generate sales in the market using a lower amount of net WC. Capital Turnover Ratio and Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio, both are near to 1, and thus support in favour of the company’s sales generating capacity with respect to the total capital invested into the business and to the amount invested into its Fixed Assets, respectively. Hence, the company has been facing with a longer-period stock-holding problem, longer-period debt-collection problem and also, abnormally longer-period creditors’ payment period, in spite of having a very satisfactory sales-generating capacity. Comment on the overall condition of the business: 1. 2. 3. 4.

Short-term solvency position is not satisfactory at all. Long-term solvency position is quite sound. Profitability position is satisfactory. As far as the sales-generating capacity is concerned, the company is performing at a highly satisfactory level, but its stock-holding period, Debt Collection Period and creditors’ payment period are too long.

 Comment After a close comparative scrutiny of the Ratios as computed earlier, it has been observed that the company’s both Current Ratio as well as Quick Ratio for both the years are a little lower than the industry average, but they are close to each other. This indicates that the company does not hold a huge stock in its hand, which is also duly supported by its low Stock Turnover Period. The given company is a manufacturing company that is engaged in the construction industry, and, therefore, it is generally expected to have a comparatively longer Debtors’ Turnover Period due to a relatively poor cash flow in the construction industry. Under such a circumstance, such (Continued)

company should strictly control its stock level, as the stock level of the given company is strictly controlled. On the other hand, the longer creditors’ turnover period of the company shows that it pays for raw materials only after collecting the dues from the credit sales. Reviewing the overall condition, it seems that the Working Capital of the company is strongly managed to avoid a poor liquidity condition, which could be caused due to the longer Debtors’ Turnover Period.

Comments on the performance of the company: Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio indicates the level of efficiency of uses or utilizations of Fixed Assets. Here, this Ratio has increased in the year 2008–09 as compared to that of in 2007–08, and, thus, shows a better efficient use or utilization in Fixed Assets in the year 2008–09. Stock Turnover Ratio is an indicator of the movement of stock. Higher Ratio indicates a faster movement of stock. Here, this Ratio has increased in 2008–09 as compared to that of in 2007–08, and, thus, shows a faster movement of stock in 2008–09 than in 2007–08. Yet, the inventory-holding period of the company is still high. Therefore, this Ratio should be compared with the industry average to draw a final conclusion about the efficiency of the inventory management of the company. Debt Collection Period indicates the efficiency of the collection department as regards to the collection of credit sales. Here, the Debt Collection Period in 2008–09 is shorter that of in 2007–08, and, thus, reflects a more efficient collection process in 2008–09 than in 2007–08. But, to draw a final conclusion about the efficiency of debtors’ management of the company, this Ratio should be compared with the industry average and the credit period received by the company from its creditors. In spite of an increase in the Reserve balance in the year 2008–09, the EPS has decreased in 2008–09 from Rs. 2 to Rs. 1.33. This happens, perhaps, due to the increase in the number of equity shares in the year 2008–09 on account of the issue of fully paid bonus shares out of Securities premium. Working Notes 1.

Working Notes 1. Fixed Assets (FA) to Sales = 1:3 or

Fixed Assets 1 = Sales 3

or

26,00,000 1 = Sales 3

∴ Sales = 26,00,000 × 3 = Rs. 78,00,000 2. Fixed Assets (FA) to Current Assets (CAs) = 13:11 or

FAs 13 = CAs 11

7. Work’s Cost = Sales − GP = 78,00,000 – 11,70,000 = Rs. 66,30,000 ∴ Direct Wages = 10% of Work’s Cost = 10% of 66,30,000 = Rs. 6,63,000 8. Stock of Raw Materials = 3 months’ usage = 3/12 × 13,26,000 = Rs. 3,31,500 Stock of Finished Goods = 6% of Work’s Cost = 6% of 66,30,000 = Rs. 3,97,800 9. Debt Collection Period = 60 days or

Debtors × 365 = 60 78,00,000

∴ Debtors = 78,00,000 × 60 ÷ 365 = Rs. 12,82,192 10. Here, Current Assets = Stock of Raw Materials + Stock of Finished Goods + Debtors + Cash or 22,00,000 = 3,31,500 + 3,97,800 + 12,82,192 + Cash ∴ Cash = Rs. 1,88,508 11.

[Rs.in ’000]

2. Transfer to general reserve to Proposed Dividend = 1:1 or,

Transfer to General Reserve =1 666.67

∴ Transfer to General Reserve = 666.67 [Rs. in ’000] Again, the Balance of general Reserve at the beginning of the year = Twice the amount transferred to general reserve from the current years’ profit = 2 × 666.67 = 1,333.34 [Rs. in ’000] 3. Profit carried forward = 10% of Proposed Dividend = 10% of 666.67 = 66.66 [Rs. in ’000] 4. Provision for tax = Amount of NP for the year = 1,260 [Rs. in ’000] 5. GP Ratio = 60% (of Turnover) or

GP = 60% Sales

or

3,220 = 60% Sales

∴ Sales = 3,220 ÷ 60% = 5,366.66 [Rs. in ’000] 6. Closing Stock = 25% of Sales = 25% of 5,366.66 = 1,341.67 [Rs. in ’000] 7. Interest on Loan = 60 (Rs. ’000) at an interest @ 10% ∴ 10% Loan = 100 ÷ 10 × 60 = 600 [Rs. in ’000] 8. Loan = 1/2 of CL or 600 = 1/2 × CL ∴ CL = 1,200 [Rs. in ’000] 9.

Current Ratio =

CAs 2 = CLs 1

CAs =2 1,200 ∴ CA = 2,400 [Rs. in ’000] Again, CAs = Stock + Debtors + Bank or 2,400 = 1,341.67 + Debtors + 125 ∴ Debtors = 933.33 [Rs. in ’000]

∴ 10% Debentures = 10% of the total of liability side = 10/50 × 5,00,000 = Rs. 1,00,000 ∴ Creditors = 25% of the total of liability side = 25 ÷ 50 × 5,00,000 = Rs. 2,50,000 2. Here, Current Liability = Creditors = Rs. 2,50,000 Current Asset ( CAs) 1.6 Again, Current Ratio = = Current Liability ( CLs) 1 or

Current Asset =

1.6 × 2,50,000 = Rs. 4,00,000 1

Again, Total Fixed Asset (FA) = 60% of [Total FAs + Total CA] or FAs = 60/100 × (FA + 4,00,000) or 10 × FAs = 6 × FAs + 24,00,000 or 4 × FAs = 24,00,000 ∴ Total FAs = 24,00,000 ÷ 4 = Rs. 6,00,000 Again, Total FAs = Freehold Property + Plant & Machinery (P&M) or, 6,00,000 = 4,00,000 + P&M [as Freehold property remains unchanged] ∴ Plant & Machinery (Closing Balance) = Rs. 2,00,000 Now, in case of Plant & Machinery, Opening Balance + Addition during the year − Depreciation for the year = Closing Balance or 1,75,000 + Addition during the year – 25,000 = 2,00,000 ∴ Addition of Plant & Machinery during the year = Rs. 50,000 3.

or 2,50,000 = 4,00,000 − Stock ∴ Stock = Rs. 1,50,000 4. Quick Assets = CAs − Stock = 4,00,000 – 1,50,000 = Rs. 2,50,000 ∴Debtors = 4/5 of Quick assets = 4/5 × 2,50,000 = Rs. 2,00,000 Here, CAs = Stock + Debtors + Bank or, 4,00,000 = 1,50,000 + 2,00,000 + Bank ∴ Bank = Rs. 50,000 5. Debtors to Sales Ratio = 2 months Debtors or × 12 months = 2 months Sales or or

CHAPTER REVIEW SUMMARY  Financial Statements are a compilation of financial data, arranged and organized in a systematic and summarized manner, according to the accounting principles, to assess the financial position of an enterprise as regards to its profitability, operational efficiency, long- and short-term solvency, and growth potential. A number of statements prepared at the end of every Accounting Period are collectively called ‘Financial Statements,’ for example, Balance Sheet, Profit & Loss A/c, Cash Flow Statement and Fund Flow Statement.  A Ratio is a relationship between two or more items expressed in mathematical terms. It is an expression of quantitative relationship between two amounts or items which is/are expressed in numbers or percentage.  Ratio calculated from different Accounting Data for exhibiting a meaningful and useful relationship between them is called Accounting Ratio.  Ratio Analysis is a tool for identifying financial strength, weakness and growth potentiality of an enterprise by means of determination, analysis and interpretation of relevant various accounting Ratios.  Ratio Analysis, as an analytical tool of Financial Statement Analysis, performs important functions: (a) measures and evaluates the financial condition of an enterprise; (b) measures and evaluates the liquidity, solvency, profitability, managerial efficiency, Capital Structure and activity of an enterprise; (c) measures and evaluates the operating effectiveness of an enterprise; (d) identifies the functional areas within the business where the adoption of remedial measures are needed; (e) helps the management in the course of Decision Making process; and (f) serves as a management control system.  It is very much useful to all the interested parties for improvement of their needs according to their respective interest in the enterprise, such as: (a) useful for identification of financial strengths and weaknesses of an enterprise; (b) useful to measure the liquidity, solvency, profitability, managerial efficiency and activity of an enterprise; (c) useful for inter- and intra-firm comparison of performance; and (d) useful to determine the corporate sickness.  It has many advantages, such as: (a) most powerful tool for measuring the short- and long-term solvency, profitability, operating activity, Capital Structure Analysis and the managerial efficiency of a concern; (b) summarizes a large number of quantitative Accounting Data by calculating the different Ratios; (c) helps the management to prepare the necessary budget and to formulate future policies; (d) relates the present accounting information with the past and (e) formulates an effective inter- and intra-firm comparison of accounting data.  In spite of immense advantages and usefulness of Ratio Analysis, it suffers from some limitations, such as: (a) it may tend to interpret a wrong direction if it is based on unauthenticated data; (b) as the Ratios are calculated on the basis of the past results, proper prediction for future may not always be dependable; (c) a single Ratio calculated for any functional area of a business does not convey its conclusive state; (d) it is formulated on the basis of historical figures as obtained from the Financial Statements. Performance of a concern based on the historical data does not always indicate its present real condition; (e) the price level changes very often distort the trend analysis process which is done with the help of various Ratios calculated in the process of Ratio Analysis.  Shareholders, moneylenders, creditors, government, bankers, management and so on are the different interested parties in Ratio Analysis.  Accounting Ratios may be broadly classified into three categories: (i) Balance Sheet Ratio; (ii) Revenue Statement Ratio; and (iii) Mixed or Composite Ratio.  A Standard or Ideal Ratio is a predetermined calculated Ratio, which is considered to be normal or standard, or which is the most meaningful or significant, or which is most effectively applicable universally to different industries under different times.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Du Pont System of financial analysis is one of the most-effective technique of earning capacity or profitability analysis of an enterprise. In Du Pont Analysis, various factors which influence ROE (as well as ROI) are diagrammatically exhibited with the help of a chart, which is popularly known as Du Pont Chart. Du Pont Analysis enables the enterprise to break its ROE into three major components in order to identify the area responsible for profit-earning capacity of the enterprise. These three components are profit on sales (i.e., NP Ratio), efficient use of assets (i.e., Total Asset Turnover Ratio) and use of leverage in the Capital Structure (i.e., FLM).

LEARNING OBJECTIVES On completion of the study of the chapter, you should be able to understand: What is meant by Cash? What is a Cash Flow Statement? What are the uses and advantages of preparation of a Cash Flow Statement? Distinction between a Cash Flow Statement and a Cash Book. Distinction between a Cash Flow Statement and a Fund Flow Statement. How to prepare a Cash Flow Statement under the Traditional Method? How to prepare a Cash Flow Statement as per Indian Accounting Standard (AS-3) (Revised), as issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India? What are the purposes of computation of Net Cash Flows from Operating, Investing and Financing Activities separately as per AS-3 (Revised)? Fundamental difference between a Cash Flow Statement prepared under the Traditional Method and that prepared under the specific format as prescribed in AS-3 (Revised).

4.1 WHAT IS CASH? Generally, cash refers to cash in hand and cash at bank. But, for the purpose of preparation of a Cash Flow Statement, the Council of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) issued Accounting Standard (AS-3) (Revised) in the year 1997, where it is stated that ‘cash’ includes the following: i. Cash in hand; ii. Demand Deposits with bank; and iii. Cash Equivalents. Cash Equivalents, which are considered as a part of cash as per AS-3, are defined as ‘short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.’ Therefore, as per AS-3 (Revised), as issued for the purpose of preparation and presentation of Cash Flow Statement, cash includes: i. Cash in Hand; ii. Cash at Bank; and iii. Short-term Investments or Marketable Securities. 4.2 DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CASH AND FUND The term Fund is generally defined as Net Working Capital (i.e., Current Assets − Current Liabilities) for the purpose of preparation and presentation of Fund Flow Statement. On the other hand, the term Cash is defined by the AS-3 as Cash in hand, Cash at bank and Short-term investments for the purpose of preparation and presentation of Cash Flow Statement. Therefore, fund includes cash, but cash does not represent the whole fund, rather a part of the fund only.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

4.3 WHAT IS CASH FLOW STATEMENT? Cash Flow Statement is a summarized statement showing sources of Cash Inflows and applications of cash outflows of an enterprise during a particular period of time (generally, a year). A Cash Flow Statement is prepared on the basis of the published data as disclosed by the Financial Statement of two different financial years. It summarizes all Cash Flows between two financial years. It is an essential tool for managerial decisionmaking. Cash Flow Statement reports the management Net Cash Flow (i.e., cash inflow less cash outflow or vice versa) from each activity of the enterprise as well as of the overall business of the enterprise. 4.4 WHY IS CASH FLOW STATEMENT PREPARED? As already discussed, Cash Flow Statement is used as an essential managerial tool. It is prepared to locate the various sources of Cash Inflows within the business and to identify the various uses of cash outflows from the business during a particular period. As it is a summarized statement of Cash Inflows and Cash Outflows for different activities of an enterprise, during a particular period, the management of that enterprise gets a vivid picture of the movement of cash resources.Thus, the management can assess the stronger and weaker area of movement of cash for different activities of the business and can draw up its future planning. 4.5 IMPORTANCE OF CASH FLOW STATEMENT Cash Flow Statement is issued as an important tool of Financial Statement analysis to the management. It helps the management to assess the ability of an enterprise to generate cash resources from its different activities and the needs of the enterprise to utilize those cash resources into its different activities. Analysis of sources and application of cash for different activities of an enterprise enables its management to prepare the reliable cash flow projection for the future planning. Cash Flow Statement is very much useful for a short-term planning of an enterprise. As Cash Flow Statement locates various inflows and outflows of cash for different activities of a concern, the management of the concern can easily assess the cash position of those activities and can also easily identify the stronger and weaker area of cash position of the different activities of the concern. 4.6 USES OF CASH FLOW STATEMENT Cash Flow Statement is a very useful tool to the management. It has the following uses: i. Prediction of Future Cash Flows: On the basis of Cash Flow Statement, an enterprise can predict the flows of cash from and to the organization for the near future period. ii. Short-term Financial Planning: With the help of the information as provided through the Cash Flow Statement, an enterprise can chalk out its future short-term financial planning as regards to the investment of its cash resources. iii. Liquidity and Solvency Position: It indicates to the management about the liquidity and solvency position of the enterprise, so that the management can take appropriate measures if it finds any weakness. iv. Disclosure of Movement of Cash: It discloses the movement of cash from and to the enterprise during a particular period, and any deviation from the budgeted figure can be identified. v. Efficiency in Cash Management: Cash Flow Statement, as already prepared for the current period, helps a lot to prepare a projected Cash Flow Statement for the future period. If the management observes any cash surplus or cash deficiency, which is likely to occur in the future period, it can make out an appropriate planning for investing the projected cash surplus or for arranging the necessary cash to meet the projected cash deficiency. vi. Identification of Stronger or Weaker Activity: As per AS-3, as issued by the ICAI, Cash Flow Statement is prepared in three parts, namely, Cash Flow from Operating Activities, Cash Flow from Investing Activities and Cash Flow from Financing Activities. Therefore, by preparing a Cash Flow Statement, the management of an enterprise can identify its stronger or weaker cash position of the respective activities of the enterprise, and accordingly, it can take an appropriate measure to resolve the matter.

vii. Ability of Payment of Dividend: Cash Flow Statement shows whether an enterprise possesses adequate cash for payment of dividend against its shares after paying off its all operating expenses and interest on debt. Thus, it provides an appropriate information to the management as regards to the firm’s ability to pay the cash diviadend to its shareholders. viii. Efficiency in Operating Activities: Cash Flow Statement separately shows the efficiency of an enterprise in its Operating Activities. If any weakness is observed, the management can take an appropriate remedial measure. ix. Efficiency in Managerial Performance: Fixed Assets of an enterprise are acquired out of the funds raised from the long-term sources. If such long-term funds are financed by long-term borrowings, it is prudent to pay interest on these long-term borrowings and also to repay the principal amount of these long-term borrowings out of the cash generated from the Operating Activities. All these above information are exhibited by the Cash Flow Statement, and thus, it reflects the level of performance of the management. x. A Tool of Comparative Study: Cash Flow Statement is used by the management of an enterprise as an essential tool of comparative study of different activities, like operating, investing and Financing Activities of the enterprise, with the other enterprises existing under the same industry and also with the enterprises that are existing under the other industries. Thus, the management can locate the area of activity where a greater emphasis is to be given for the growth of the enterprise. 4.7 ADVANTAGES OF CASH FLOW STATEMENT All enterprises enjoy lots of benefits through the Cash Flow Statement, as the latter is having the following advantages: i. It provides adequate information as regards to the inflows and outflows of cash resources to and from the enterprise. ii. It provides separate information as regards to the inflows and outflows of cash from the different activities of the enterprise. iii. It evaluates the level of efficiency of the management of the enterprise as regards to the uses of its cash resources. iv. It discloses the liquidity and solvency position of the enterprise. v. It helps the management a lot for future cash planning of the enterprise. vi. It provides the necessary information to the management, so that the situation of excessive surplus cash or deficiency of cash can be avoided. vii. It locates the stronger and weaker activities of an enterprise. viii. It helps to prepare the budget for the future period. 4.8 LIMITATIONS OF CASH FLOW STATEMENT In spite of the immense usefulness of the Cash Flow Statement, it has its own limitations. They are as follows: i. Cash Flow Statement shows only the inflows and outflows of cash, and thus, it does not take into consideration the non-cash transactions of the enterprise that had taken place during the same period. ii. As it considers only the inflows and outflows of cash, the Net Cash Flow of a certain period does not necessarily mean the Net Profit of the business, as Net Profit is ascertained considering both cash as well as non-cash transactions. Thus, there may be a huge difference between the Net Cash Flow and the Net Profit for the same period. iii. As it discloses the Net Cash Flow, and not the Net Profit for a certain period, it is not a substitute of the profit and loss account (Profit & Loss A/c) or Income statement. iv. As it is prepared at the end of a certain period, it is not useful for rectifying the errors that had already taken place during that period.

v. It is also not a substitute of the Fund Flow Statement, as it discloses only the cash position of the enterprise and not the financial position of the enterprise as a whole. vi. As it is prepared at the end of a certain period, it can provide only the indications about the probable inflows and outflows of cash for the future period, and not the exact inflows and outflows. 4.9 DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CASH BOOK AND CASH FLOW STATEMENT Apparently, a Cash Flow Statement may be considered as the summarized form of a Cash Book. But actually, there are some fundamental differences between the Cash Book and the Cash Flow Statement, which are as follows: Cash Book 1. Cash Book is the Book of Primary Entry for cash transactions. 2. In Cash Book, all cash receipts and cash payments are recorded. 3. Process of recording of cash transactions in the Cash Book takes place throughout the financial year. 4. Process of recording in the Cash Book is the most essential activity under the Financial Accounting System. 5. Primary objective behind the preparation of Cash Book is the recording of all cash transactions and to find out the balance of cash. 6. Cash Book exhibits lesser information as regards to movement of cash than the Cash Flow Statement. 7. Net Cash Flows from different activities of the enterprise, like operating, investing, and Financing Activities, are not separately exhibited in the Cash Book. 8. While preparing the Cash Book, cash refers to Cash in hand and Cash at bank (demand deposits) only.

Cash Flow Statement 1. Cash Flow Statement is a statement showing the sources and utilizations of cash. 2. In Cash Flow Statement, all inflows and outflows of cash are exhibited. 3. It is generally prepared at the end of the financial year. 4. Preparation of Cash Flow Statement is one of the important activities under the Management Accounting System. 5. The objective behind preparation of Cash Flow Statement is to provide necessary information as regards to sources and utilizations of cash. 6. Cash Flow Statement exhibits more detailed information regarding the movement of cash than the Cash Book. 7. Net Cash Flows from different activities of an enterprise are separately exhibited in the Cash Flow Statement prepared as per AS-3, as issued by the ICAI. 8. While preparing the Cash Flow Statement, cash includes Cash in hand, Cash at bank (demand deposits) and short-term investments.

4.10 DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CASH FLOW STATEMENT AND FUND FLOW STATEMENT Both Cash Flow Statement as well as Fund Flow Statement are very important tools for managerial decision making. But there are some fundamental differences between these two, which are as follows: Cash Flow Statement 1. Cash Flow Statement exhibits inflows and outflows of cash and cash equivalents alone. 2. While preparing a Cash Flow Statement, cash refers to cash in hand, cash at bank (demand deposits) and shortterm investments (i.e., Cash & Cash equivalents alone). 3. Cash Flow Statement is prepared on cash basis of accounting. 4. It is the most important tool for short-term financial analysis. 5. By preparing a Cash Flow Statement, the movement of cash alone can be known and identified. 6. Net Cash Inflows from different activities of an enterprise, such as operating, investing and Financing Activities, are separately exhibited through the Cash Flow Statement.

Fund Flow Statement 1. Fund Flow Statement exhibits inflows and outflows of funds (i.e., working capital) alone. 2. While preparing a Fund Flow Statement, fund refers to the working capital (i.e., Current Assets and Current Liabilities alone). 3. Fund Flow Statement is prepared on accrual basis of accounting. 4. It is the most important tool for long-term financial analysis. 5. By preparing a Fund Flow Statement, the movement of Working Capital items (i.e., Current Assets and Current Liabilities) alone can be known and identified. 6. Net fund flows from different activities of an enterprise are not separately exhibited through the Fund Flow Statement. (Continued)

4.12 CASH FLOW STATEMENT AS PRESCRIBED IN AS-3 Accounting standard (Revised)–3 (AS-3) as issued by the ICAI in March 1997, prescribes a specific format for presenting a Cash Flow Statement. Preparation of Cash Flow Statement as per AS-3 is mandatory in respect of accounting periods that are commencing on or after 01 April 2001 (i.e., from the accounting year 2001–02) for the following enterprises: i. Enterprises that have a turnover of more than Rs. 50 crores during a financial year. ii. Companies whose shares or debts are listed on a recognized stock exchange in India (Cash Flow Statement of listed companies shall be presented under indirect method only as prescribed in AS-3). AS-3 prescribes two forms of presentation of Cash Flow Statement, which are as follows: i. Direct Method: Under this method, the Net Cash Flow from Operating Activities is to be calculated directly by deducting the cash outflows from the Operating Activities from Cash Inflows from the Operating Activities. ii. Indirect Method: Under this method, the Net Cash Flow from Operating Activities is to be calculated indirectly by adding back all the non-operating and non-cash items debited and by deducting all the non-operating and non-cash items credited to the Profit & Loss A/c for an accounting year with the Net Profit for that year. For both the methods, ‘Cash’ refers to cash in hand, cash at bank (demand deposits alone) and short-term investments or marketable securities. All these combinedly are termed as ‘Cash and Cash Equivalents.’ Under both the above methods, Net Cash Flows from the operating, investing and Financing Activities are to be separately shown in the Cash Flow Statement. In other words, Cash Flow Statement prepared under both the above methods is subdivided into the following three parts: i. Net Cash Flows from Operating Activities. ii. Net Cash Flows from Investing Activities. iii. Net Cash Flows from Financing Activities.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

4.12.1 Cash Flows from Operating Activities Operating or trading activities are principal revenue-producing activities of an enterprise. In other words, principal business activities of an enterprise, other than investing and Financing Activities, are called Operating Activities. Say, in case of a book-publishing company, the principal business activities are printing and publication of books and their sales. The publishing company may have huge, excess cash which are invested outside the business from where the company may receive a substantial amount of cash in the form of interest, but this activity is not the principal business activity of the company and hence, should not be treated as an operating activity of the company. Its Operating Activities are printing and publication of books and their sales. All cash receipts (i.e., inflows of cash) and cash payments (i.e., outflows of cash) for printing, publication and sale of books are to be considered as Cash Flows from Operating Activities. Examples of Cash Inflows from Operating Activities: Cash sales of goods/services, collection from credit sales, etc. Examples of Cash out Flows from Operating Activities: Cash purchases of goods/ services, payment against credit sales, payment of factory expenses, payment of office & administration expenses, payment of selling & distribution expenses, etc. Illustration Cash sales of goods—Rs. 1,50,000; Collection from debtors—Rs. 3,50,000; Cash purchases of goods—Rs. 90,000; Payment to creditors—Rs. 2,20,000; Payment of wages—Rs. 50,000; Payment of factory expenses—Rs. 40,000; Payment of office & administration expenses—Rs. 25,000; Payment of selling & distribution expenses—Rs. 35,000; and Payment of tax on operating profit—Rs. 15,000.

4.12.2 Cash Flows from Investing Activities Investing activities are the acquisition and disposal of long-term assets and other investments not included in the cash equivalents. In other words, Investing Activities arise out of acquisition and sale of Fixed Assets and long-term investments made outside the enterprise. Say, a book publishing company invests its funds for acquisition of Fixed Assets, even though they are used for carrying on its Operating Activities, or into shares of another company. Any inflows or outflows of cash from these activities of the company are to be treated as Cash Flows from Investing Activities. Examples of Cash Inflows from Investing Activities: Sale proceeds of Fixed Assets and long-term investments, income received from investments, etc. Examples of Cash Outflows from Investing Activities: Purchase of Fixed Assets, additions to Fixed Assets, investments made, etc.

4.12.3 Cash Flows from Financing Activities Financing activities are the activities of an enterprise which result in changes in size and composition of the owner’s capital (including Preference Share Capital) and borrowings of that enterprise. In other words, activities related to the total capital employed (i.e., equity & Preference Share Capital and long-term loans) of an enterprise are treated as Financing Activities. Any inflows or outflows of cash from these activities of the enterprise are to be treated as ‘Cash Flows from Financing Activities.’ Say, the book-publishing company issues its equity shares, redeems its debentures, etc. Examples of Cash Inflows from Financing Activities: Proceeds received from the issue of equity and preference shares and debentures, proceeds received from the long-term loans, etc. Examples of Cash out Flows from Financing Activities: Redemption of preference shares and debentures, repayment of long-term loans, payment of equity and preference dividend, payment of interest on loans, etc. Illustration Proceeds received from the issue of equity shares—Rs. 3,00,000; Proceeds received from the issue of preference shares—Rs. 2,00,000; Proceeds received from the long-term loans—Rs. 1,50,000; Redemption of preference shares—Rs. 1,50,000; Redemption of debentures—Rs. 1,00,000; Payment of dividend—Rs. 30,000; and Payment of interest—Rs. 20,000.

Stop and Think The only difference between the direct and indirect methods lies in the calculation of Net Cash Flows from Operating Activities. Under direct method, the Net Cash Flow from the Operating Activities is directly calculated by deducting the cash outflows from the Operating Activities from the Cash Inflows from the Operating Activities. On the other hand, under the indirect method, the Net Cash Flow from the Operating Activities is indirectly calculated by adding back all the non-operating and non-cash items debited and by deducting all the non-operating and noncash items credited to the Profit & Loss A/c for an accounting year with the Net Profit for that year. Under both the methods, the Net Cash Flows from investing and Financing Activities are calculated following the same approach (i.e., no difference between both the methods).

4.14 FUNDAMENTAL DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CASH FLOW STATEMENT AS PER AS-3 AND TRADITIONAL METHOD i. As per Traditional Method, Cash means cash in hand and at bank (demand deposits) only, whereas as per AS-3, Cash includes not only cash in hand and at bank (demand deposits) but also short-term investments or marketable securities. ii. Cash Flows from different activities of an enterprise, such as operating, investing and Financing Activities, can be separately known through the Cash Flow Statement prepared as per AS-3, by virtue of which the enterprise can identify its stronger and weaker area of cash generation. But, as per Traditional Method, there is no such segregation of Cash Flows from the different activities of an enterprise. iii. As per AS-3, two separate approaches, namely, Direct and Indirect Method, may be followed for the preparation of a Cash Flow Statement, whereas a single approach is followed while preparing the Cash Flow Statement under Traditional Method. iv. Preparation of a Cash Flow Statement as per AS-3 is mandatory for all enterprises having an annual turnover of more than Rs. 50 crores and also for all companies whose shares or debts are listed on a recognized Stock Exchange of India. Enterprises those are not falling under the above categories may prepare their Cash Flow Statement as per the Traditional Method.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Stop and Think Where a detailed information as regards to cash sales, collection from debtors, cash purchases, payment to creditors, and so on, are given in the problem, or can be calculated, the Cash Flow from the operating activity can be calculated following the Direct Method as well as the Indirect Method, as prescribed in AS-3 (Revised). More clearly, where the Profit & Loss A/c for an accounting period along with the opening and closing Balance Sheets of that accounting period are given in the problem, the Cash Flow from the operating activity can be calculated following both the Direct Method as well as the Indirect Method, as prescribed in AS-3 (Revised). In such a situation, students are advised to follow the Direct Method.

 Tutorial Notes to Students for Solving Problems 1. As per conventional/traditional approach, Cash refers to ‘cash in hand’ and ‘cash at bank’ only, but as per AS-3 (Revised), it refers to ‘cash and cash equivalents’ (i.e., Cash in hand, Cash at bank and Short-term investments/Marketable securities). 2. For all examination purposes (i.e., B.Com., M.Com., C.A., I.C.W.A., C.S., M.B.A., etc.) and for some practical purposes (i.e., companies having a turnover of more than Rs. 50 crores during a financial year and whose shares or debts are listed on a recognized stock exchange in India), Cash Flow Statement is compulsorily required to be presented, following the format as prescribed in AS-3 (Revised). 3. As per AS-3 (Revised), a Cash Flow Statement may be presented under two methods, that is, Direct Method and Indirect Method. Accordingly, students should know which method of presenting Cash Flow Statement is desirable on the basis of the information given in the problem. 4. Where details of information as regards to cash sales, collection from debtors, cash purchases, payment to creditors, and so on, are given in the problem or somehow can be calculated, the cash flow from Operating Activities can be calculated following the direct method as well as the indirect method, as prescribed in AS-3 (Revised). More clearly, where the Profit & Loss A/c for an accounting period, along with opening and closing Balance Sheets of that accounting period, is given in the problem, the cash flow from Operating Activities can be calculated following both the direct method as well as the indirect method, as prescribed in AS-3 (Revised). In such a situation, students are advised to follow the direct method. 5. Where only opening and closing Balance Sheets of an accounting period are given in the problem, along with some additional information, the cash flow from Operating Activities can be calculated following the indirect method only, as prescribed in AS-3 (Revised). 6. Under both direct and indirect methods, the method of calculating the cash flow from both Investing Activities and Financing Activities is the same, that is, no separate approach is followed under both direct and indirect methods, for the purpose of calculating the cash flow from Investing Activities and Financing Activities. 7. The sum of Net Cash Flows from operating, investing and Financing Activities represents net increase/decrease in cash and cash equivalents. Sum/deduction of this net increase/ decrease in cash and cash equivalents with/ from the cash and cash equivalents at the beginning of the period should always be equal to the cash and cash equivalents at the end of the period; and thus, students should satisfy themselves about the accuracy of their solution to the problem given in the examination.

4.15 WORKED-OUT PROBLEMS Problem 1 Choose the correct alternative from the following: i. Depreciation on Fixed Assets: (a) causes cash inflow; (b) causes cash outflow; (c) has no effect on Cash Flow. ii. Interest paid on debentures causes: (a) cash outflow from operating activities; (b) cash outflow from Financing Activities; (c) cash outflow from investing activities. iii. Cash sale of goods causes: (a) cash inflow from operating activities; (b) cash inflow from financing activities; (c) cash inflow from investing activities.

Stop and Think i. Here, workings for Non-current Assets and Liabilities are done in two forms. Non-current Assets and liabilities against which there is no adjustment are collectively shown under a single working in a statement form (Working Note 1). For Non-current Assets and Liabilities against which there are adjustments, separate accounts are opened for each of them. Students are advised to follow this type of working for the examination purpose to save time. ii. A premium paid on the redemption of debenture was definitely written off ; otherwise, it would have appeared in the asset side of the Balance Sheet as on 31 December 2007. As there was no securities premium, it was written off against Profit & Loss A/c. Under Working Note – 4, the adjustment of the premium paid on redemption against Profit & Loss A/c is shown in debenture account for avoiding the hazard of opening another account. A separate account for premium on redemption of debentures could have been opened alternatively. Preparation of Cash Flow Statement as per AS-3

Tutorial Note There are two methods of preparation of Cash Flow Statement as per AS-3, namely, Direct Method and Indirect Method. If, in the problem, the details of Profit & Loss A/c for the relevant year along with the Balance Sheets of the relevant year and its proceeding year are given, then the Cash Flow Statement may be prepared following either of the two methods (i.e., Direct Method or Indirect Method) as recommended in AS-3. But if, in the problem, only the Balance Sheets of two consecutive years along with some additional information are given (i.e., where the details of the Profit & Loss A/c are not given in the problem), then the Cash Flow Statement is to be prepared following the Indirect Method only as recommended in AS-3.

Note: Here, investment is considered as a Long-term Investment.

Interpretation of above Cash Flow Statement: From the above Cash Flow Statement, it has been observed that there is no net increase in cash and cash equivalents during the year 2006–07. In spite of the Net Cash Inflows from the Operating Activities of Rs. 3,10,000 and Net Cash Inflows from the Financing Activities of Rs. 3,00,000 during the year, a huge amount of net cash outflows from the Investing Activities (of Rs. 6,10,000), due to a huge investment in the Fixed Assets counter balancing the net increase in cash and cash equivalents during the year. Therefore, in spite of a substantial net Cash Inflows from the Operating Activities, there is no net increase in the cash and cash equivalents during the year due to a huge investment in the Fixed Assets. Working Notes 1.

Here, for the better understanding of the difference between the two methods, the Cash Flow Statement is prepared separately under both the methods. However, students are advised to follow either of the two methods in the examination hall (preferably under Direct Method in such a case).

Stop and Think i. As the income from Investment is tax-free, the entire amount of income Tax was paid against the Operating Profit only. ii. Under Indirect Method, no need to prepare Working Notes 1 & 2 (i.e., Debtors’ and Creditors’ Account). iii. As Bad Debt is an Operating and Current item (as debtors are reduced for Bad Debt), it is not added back to the Net Profit while calculating the Cash Flow from Operating activities under Indirect Method. But, as the loss of Stock is a loss of abnormal nature, it is not considered as the Operating Loss; and accordingly, added back to the Net Profit while calculating the Cash Flow from the Operating Activities under Indirect Method.

Stop and Think i. Land and Stock were purchased from a company, the consideration payable against which discharged by issue of shares. The company which sold its Land and Stock is termed here as the ‘vendor company’ for which an account (W/N No. 2) is opened. ii. In this problem, neither the value Fixed Assets were purchased for cash, nor the Depreciation charged for the year 2006 is given. That is why, despite the value of Fixed Assets appearing in the Balance Sheet at WDV, two separate accounts are opened here namely—one is Fixed Asset (at cost) account, the opening and closing values have been derived by adding the WDV, with respective accumulated Depreciation, and the other is the provision for Depreciation on Fixed Asset Account, taking the accumulated Depreciations on opening and closing date as Opening & Closing Balances respectively. iii. While deducting the decrease in the Value of Inventories, the Value of Stock worth Rs. 40,000 bought from the Vendor Company is deducted to get the net decrease in the stock due to Operational Activities.

Stop and Think i. Cash and Cash equivalent refers to cash in hand, at bank and Short-term Investment. ii. Under Indirect Method, no need to prepare Working Notes 1, 2 & 3. iii. As Tax of Rs. 30,000 was already deducted from the source on income from the Long-term Investment, it is shown as a deduction from income from Investment (see Working Note 10) under the head ‘Cash Flow from Investing Activities’ and the balance amount of income Tax of Rs. 2,70,000 (i.e., Rs. 3,00,000 – Rs. 30,000), as provided in the statement of Profit & Loss A/c is considered as a Tax Provision on the Operating Profit (see Working Note 4). iv. As there are no outstanding or prepaid Wages and Overheads and Administrative and Selling Expenses, either at the beginning or at the end of the year 2007, it must be considered that the amount of such expenses as charged in the Profit & Loss A/c have been paid in full.

Working Notes 1. In the absence of adequate information, income tax on the company’s operating profit is ignored here. 2. Net tax-free dividend to be paid to shareholders = 10% on 5,70,000 = Rs. 57,000 Again, the given tax rate on the above dividend = 25% As the company has decided to pay a tax-free dividend to its shareholders, it has to bear the amount of tax payable by its shareholders on receipt of such dividend. Hence, the total amount to be paid for such dividend is as follows:

It is used as an essential tool for managerial tool. It is prepared to locate the various sources of cash inflows within the business and to identify the various uses of cash outflows from the business during a particular period.  It is prepared to fulfil some objectives of an enterprise, such as: (a) Prediction of future cash flows; (b) Shortterm financial planning; (c) Liquidity and solvency position; (d) Disclosure of movement of cash; (e) Efficiency in cash management; (f) Identification of stronger or weaker activity; (g) Efficiency in managerial performance; and (h) A tool of comparative study.  Cash Flow Statement has many advantages, such as: (a) It provides adequate information as regards to inflows and outflows of cash resources to and from the enterprise; (b) It provides separate information as regards to inflows and outflows of cash from the different activities of the enterprise; (c) It evaluates the level of efficiency of the management of the enterprise as regards to uses of its cash resources; (d) It discloses the liquidity and solvency position of the enterprise; (e) It helps to prepare the budget for the future period.  In spite of its immense usefulness, it has its own limitations too, such as: (a) It shows only the inflows and outflows of cash; and thus, it does not take into consideration the non-cash transactions of the enterprise;

(b) As it discloses the Net Cash Flow, not the Net Profit for a certain period, it is not a substitute of the Profit & Loss A/c; (c) As it is prepared; at the end of a certain period, it is not useful for rectifying the errors that already took place during that period; and (d) It is not also a substitute of Fund Flow Statement as it discloses cash alone. As per conventional/traditional approach, ‘cash’ refers to Cash in hand and Cash at bank only, but as per AS-3 (Revised), ‘cash’ refers to cash and cash equivalents (i.e., Cash in hand, Cash at bank and Short-term investments/Marketable securities. As per AS-3 (Revised), a Cash Flow Statement may be presented under two methods, that is, Direct Method and Indirect Method. A Cash Flow Statement prepared under both the above methods is subdivided into the following three parts: i. Net Cash Flows from Operating Activities. ii. Net Cash Flows from Investing Activities. iii. Net Cash Flows from Financing Activities.



Cash flows to and from the principal business activities of an enterprise other than investing and Financing Activities are called ‘cash flows from Operating Activities.’ For example, cash sale of goods/services, cash purchases of goods/services and so on. Cash flows from Investing Activities arise out of acquisition and sale of Fixed Assets and long-term investments made outside the enterprise. For example, cash purchase of Fixed Assets, cash sale of Fixed Assets, and so on. Cash flows from Financing Activities are movement of cash of an enterprise which result in changes in size and composition of the owner’s capital (including Preference Share Capital) and borrowings of that enterprise. For example, issue of shares in cash, repayment of long-term loans in cash, and so on. Cash flows from different activities of an enterprise, such as operating, investing and Financing Activities, can be separately known through the Cash Flow Statement prepared as per AS-3, by virtue of which the enterprise can identify its stronger and weaker area of cash generation. But, as per traditional method, there are no such segregations of cash flows from the different activities of an enterprise.

Fund Flow Analysis

5

LEARNING OBJECTIVES On completion of the study of the chapter, you should be able to understand: What is the meaning and concept of Fund? What is the meaning and concept of Flow of Fund? What is Fund Flow Statement? Different sources and uses of Fund. How to prepare a Fund Flow Statement. Importance and limitations of a Fund Flow Statement. What is Fund from Operation? Comparison between Fund Flow Statement, Income Statement and Balance Sheet. Comparison between Fund Flow Statement and Cash Flow Statement.

5.1 MEANING AND CONCEPT OF FUND The concept of Fund is explained by different accountants and accounting bodies in different approaches. Accordingly, the word Fund has different meanings as per the interpretations of different accountants and accounting bodies. These different interpretations of the concept of Fund are discussed as follows: i. Cash and Bank: As per the interpretation of some accountants, Fund includes cash and bank of the enterprise only. As per this concept, the inflows and outflows of cash resources alone are considered as Flow of Fund. Accordingly, under this concept, the Fund Flow Statement of an enterprise is prepared taking the inflows and outflows of cash resources alone. ii. Working Capital: As per this interpretation, Fund includes the Working Capital of the enterprise only. The difference between total Current Assets and total Current Liabilities of an enterprise constitutes its Working Capital (i.e., Working Capital = Current Assets − Current Liabilities). As per this concept, the inflows and outflows of the Working Capital elements alone (i.e., Current Assets and Current Liabilities) are considered as the Flow of Fund. Accordingly, under this concept, the Fund Flow Statement of an enterprise is prepared taking the inflows and outflows of Current Assets and Current Liabilities only. iii. All Financial Resources: As per this interpretation, all financial resources of an enterprise are considered as a Fund, irrespective of the fact whether these resources influence the Working Capital of the enterprise or not. As per this concept, the inflows and outflows of all financial resources of the enterprise are considered as Flow of Fund. Accordingly, under this concept, the Fund Flow Statement of an enterprise is prepared taking the inflows and outflows of all the financial resources of the enterprise. 5.2 GENERALLY ACCEPTED CONCEPT OF FUND Although there is no unanimous concept of Fund, yet with reference to the preparation of a Fund Flow Statement the most preferred and accepted concept of Fund is the Working Capital. Working Capital (net) is the excess of Current Assets over Current Liabilities. Hence, Fund Flow Statement is prepared considering the meaning and concept of Fund as the Working Capital. Therefore, Fund items for the purpose of Fund Flow Statement are basically Working Capital items (i.e., current items).

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

5.3 MEANING OF FLOW OF FUND Flow of Fund means the inward and outward movement of a Fund of an enterprise. For the purpose, Fund refers to Working Capital and flow means movement or changes. Therefore, Flow of Fund means movement of or changes in the Working Capital (i.e., current) items. Working Capital items are Current Assets and Current Liabilities. Hence, where there is an inward or outward movement of Current Assets (e.g., debtors, stock, bills receivable, cash, bank) and Current Liabilities (e.g., creditors, bills payable, outstanding expenses), there is a Flow of Fund. In short, the Flow of Fund is identified by the means of inward or outward movement of Current Assets and Current Liabilities.  

When Current Assets increase or Current Liabilities decrease—Inflows of Fund. When Current Assets decrease or Current Liabilities increase—Outflows of Fund.

5.4 WHAT IS FUND FLOW STATEMENT? A Fund Flow Statement is a summarized statement of the movement of Fund (i.e., Working Capital) from different activities of a concern during an accounting period. It is prepared to locate the various sources of Fund inflows into the business and also to identify the various purposes of Fund outflows from the business, during two consecutive Balance Sheet dates. As it is a summarized statement of Fund inflows and Fund outflows from different activities of an enterprise during a particular period, the management gets a vivid picture of the movement of Fund in between two consecutive Balance Sheet dates by preparation of a Fund Flow Statement. One side of the Fund Flow Statement shows the various sources of Fund and the other side shows the various applications of Fund during an accounting period. A Fund Flow Statement acts as an important tool of Financial Analysis to the management. Thus, the management can assess the movement of Fund from different activities of the business and can draw up its future planning. 5.5 IMPORTANCE OR PURPOSES OF FUND FLOW STATEMENT Fund Flow Statement acts as an important tool for Financial Analysis and shows the brief reasons for change in the Working Capital between two Balance Sheet dates. It has more importance from the viewpoint of the management of a concern. It serves the following purposes: i. Fund Flow Statement explains how the financial position has changed from the beginning of an accounting period to the end of that period. ii. It acts as an important instrument for allocation of resources of a concern. It enables the concern for making plans for optimum allocation of resources. iii. It answers many intricate financial queries such as reasons for changes in Working Capital position, various sources of repayment of loans, various sources of acquiring capital, sources of Fund from nonoperating activities, applications of Fund towards various non-operating activities, Fund generation through operating activities and so on. iv. It helps the management in the process of effective use of the Working Capital of a concern. v. As projected Fund Flow Statement estimates the future Fund position of a concern, it helps in framing the rational dividend policy of the concern without any adverse impact on the operating Working Capital. vi. It helps the management in planning the future financial requirements. vii. It projects the future Fund generation, aids in future investment planning and also helps in the Working Capital management of a concern. 5.6 LIMITATIONS OF FUND FLOW STATEMENT Although a Fund Flow Statement has more importance from the view point of the management of a concern, yet it suffers from the following limitations: i. Fund Flow Statement is not a basic Financial Statement, but is a supplementary statement. It does not disclose any new fact which is not reflected in the Income Statement and the Balance Sheet. ii. It provides a partial financial information to the management.

iii. iv. v. vi.

It cannot present the continuous changes in the financial position. It does not indicate the structural change of an Asset or a Liability. It is prepared on the basis of historical data. It exhibits the changes in the Fund position, but does not indicate the changes in the cash position, which is most important for every business concern. vii. Nowadays, Fund Flow Analysis is not as much relevant to the management for Financial Analysis as is Cash Flow Analysis. 5.7 PROFORMA OF PRESENTATION OF FUND FLOW STATEMENT A Fund Flow Statement is generally prepared in an account form, containing therein the sources of Fund on the left-hand side and applications or uses of Fund on the right-hand side. A proforma of presentation of Fund Flow Statement is shown as follows: Fund Flow Statement of for the period Sources of Fund Fund from Operation New Issue of Shares New Issue of Debentures Loan raised Sale of Fixed Assets Income received on Investments Sale of Investments Decrease in Working Capital (Bal. fig.)

5.8 DIFFERENT SOURCES OF FUND Sources of Fund may be classified into two broad categories: Fund from the operating activities and Fund from the non-operating activities. Sources of Fund from the operating activities refer to the Fund that is coming into the business due to the operating activities of the concern. Examples of sources of Fund from such operating activities are: Cash Sale of Goods, Credit Sale of Goods, discount received, commission received and so on. On the other hand, the sources of Fund from the non-operating activities refer to the Fund that is coming into the business due to the various activities of the concern other than the operating activities. Examples of sources of Fund from such operating activities are: Sale of Fixed Assets and long-term investments, proceeds received from the issue of equity, preference shares and debentures, proceeds received from long-term borrowings and so on. 5.9 DIFFERENT APPLICATIONS OF FUND Applications or uses of Fund may also be classified into two broad categories: Fund for operating activities and Fund for non-operating activities. Applications of Fund for operating activities refer to the Fund that is going out of the business due to the operating activities of the concern. Examples of applications of Fund for such operating activities are: Cash Purchase of Goods, Credit Purchase of Goods, Payment of Wages and Salaries, outstanding wages and salaries, and so on. On the other hand, applications of Fund for non-operating activities refer to the Fund that is going out of the business due to various activities of the concern other than the operating activities. Examples of applications of Fund for such operating activities are: purchase of Fixed Assets and long-term investments, redemption of preference shares and debentures, repayment of long-term borrowings, payment of dividend, tax and so on. 5.10 WHAT IS FUND FROM OPERATION? Fund from Operation (or Net Fund Flow from operation) refers to the difference between the inflows of Fund and the outflows of Fund from the operating activities of the concern. It is the net Flow of Fund from the

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

operating activities of the concern. Net Flow of Fund refers to the excess of Fund inflow over the Fund outflow or vice versa. For ascertaining the Fund from Operation, two important points are to be simultaneously considered. They are: (a) There are inflows or outflows of Fund (i.e., Current Assets or Current Liabilities); (b) These inflows or outflows of Fund occur due to the operational activities of the concern. Suppose, the raising of long-term loan reflects the inflow of Fund, still, such inflow of Fund has not occurred due to the operational activities of the concern. Sale of Goods, Purchase of Goods, Wages, Salaries and so on, are the causes of movement of Fund due to the operational activities of the concern. Hence, the Fund from Operation exhibits the Net Flow of Fund coming into or going out of the business due to its operating activities. Illustration Say, there is an inflow of Fund of Rs. 2,40,000 by means of sale of goods and there is an outflow of Fund of Rs. 1,50,000 by means of Purchase of Goods. Therefore, Fund from Operation = Inflows of Fund from operating activities − Outflows of Fund from operating activities = Sale of Goods − Purchase of Goods = Rs. 2,40,000 − Rs. 1,50,000 = Rs. 90,000. 5.11 DIFFERENT APPROACHES OF COMPUTATION OF FUND FROM OPERATION The Fund from Operation (i.e., Net Fund Flow from operational activities) may be computed under two different approaches, such as Direct Approach and Indirect Approach. Depending upon the information given, a particular approach for computation of Fund from Operation is followed. These two different approaches of computation of Fund from Operation are separately explained as follows. 5.11.1 Direct Approach of Computation of Fund from Operation When the Fund from Operation is computed directly by deduction of operating Fund outflows from the operating Fund inflows, such an approach is called ‘direct approach.’ Where the details of the operating incomes and expenses are given and the Net Fund Flow from the Operation is computed by following the Direct Approach. Under this approach, the difference between the Fund inflows and Fund outflows from operation represents the Net Fund Flow from operation. The proforma of computation of Fund from Operation under Direct Approach is shown as follows: Statement showing computation of Fund from Operation for the period Rs.

Where the Net Profit along with all the Non-Operating and Non-Fund items considered in the Profit & Loss A/c are given, the Net Fund Flow from the operation is computed by the following Indirect Approach. Where the Balance Sheets of two consecutive years along with the additional information are given, the Net Fund Flow from the operation is also computed by following the Indirect Approach. Indirect approach of computation of Fund from Operation may also be calculated under two different forms such as ‘in statement form’ and ‘in account form.’ Same thing is done under these two alternative formats.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

5.12 IS DEPRECIATION A SOURCE OF FUND? Depreciation is decrease in the value of Fixed Assets due to wear and tear, lapse of time, exhaustion, obsolescence and so on. It is definitely an operating expense of a concern, but does not involve the Flow of Fund. Accounting entries passed for adjusting depreciation are as follows: i. Depreciation A/c Dr. To Fixed Asset A/c ii. Profit & Loss A/c Dr. To Depreciation A/c From the above entries, it has been transpired that neither Current Asset nor Current Liability (i.e., Fund item) is being involved for adjusting depreciation. More clearly, there is no movement of Fund for adjusting depreciation. Hence, depreciation should not, generally, be regarded as a source (or a use) of Fund. Yet, there are two opinions among the accountants as regards to the consideration whether depreciation is a source of Fund or not. Some accountants opine that depreciation should be regarded as a source of Fund, while some others consider that it is not at all a source of Fund. Arguments advocated by those who opine that depreciation is a source of Fund are as follows: i. Depreciation is an expired cost of Fixed Assets which is recovered in cash by way of its inclusion in the cost of production. Thus, depreciation is basically treated as sale of Fixed Asset in piecemeal. If the sale of Fixed Asset is considered as a source of Fund, then depreciation should also be treated as a source of Fund. ii. Depreciation is charged against revenue as an expense, unlike other operating expenses, with a view to set aside a Fund that is equal to the amount of increase in the Working Capital. iii. By providing depreciation on the Fixed Assets, a Fund equal to the loss in the value of Fixed Assets is set aside as a recovery of capital. iv. While calculating the Net Fund Flow from operation, depreciation is added back to the Net Profit. Had depreciation not been a source of Fund, such addition would not have been allowed. v. By charging depreciation, a concern reduces its Tax Liability and thus saves its Fund. Arguments advocated by those who opine that depreciation is not a source of Fund are as follows: i. From the accounting entries of adjusting depreciation, it is transpired that, though depreciation is an operating expense of a concern, it does not involve any Flow of Fund. ii. Depreciation is charged against revenue as an operating expense, just like other cash operating expenses, with a view to ascertain real profit of the concern. iii. While calculating the Net Fund Flow from operation under Direct Approach, depreciation is neither considered as a source of Fund like Cash Sales, Credit Sales and so on, nor is considered as a use of Fund like purchases, wages and so on. iv. While calculating the Net Fund Flow from operation under Indirect Approach, depreciation is added back to the net profit just to nullify the amount that has already reduced the Fund from Operation by way of charging depreciation. v. If depreciation is really a Source of Fund, a concern could have improved its Fund position merely by charging more depreciation. vi. Sale of Fixed Asset is not, in true sense, a source of augmented Fund, rather is a recovery of capital. vii. If there is no Sale of Goods in any year, there is no inflow of Fund from Operation for that year. Even if there is neither sale Nor Profit during a year, depreciation is charged for that year. Had depreciation been a source of Fund, then there would have been some inflow of Fund from Operation during the year of ‘No Sale of Goods.’ But practically, it does not happen so. From the above discussion, it can be concluded that, though depreciation is an operating expense, it should not, generally, be regarded as a source (or a use) of Fund as it involves no movement of Fund (i.e., Current Asset or Current Liability).

FUND FLOW ANALYSIS

5.13 COMPARISON BETWEEN FUND FLOW STATEMENT, INCOME STATEMENT AND BALANCE SHEET Income Statement and Balance Sheet are two basic Financial Statements. Income Statement ascertains Net Profit or Net Loss of a concern during an accounting period, whereas Balance Sheet exhibits the financial position of the concern at the end of that accounting period. On the basis of the historical data as provided through these basic Financial Statements, a Fund Flow Statement is prepared to show the changes in the financial position (i.e., Fund position) of a concern between two consecutive Balance Sheet dates. Fund Flow Statement is a supplementary Financial Statement which shows he changes in the Fund position (i.e., Working Capital position) from the beginning of the accounting period to its end. A Fund Flow Statement cannot be a substitute of two basic Financial Statements. 5.14 DISTINCTION BETWEEN FUND FLOW STATEMENT AND CASH FLOW STATEMENT Both Cash Flow Statement and Fund Flow Statement are very important tools to the management for Financial Analysis and Decision Making. But, there are some Fundamental differences between these two, which are as follows: Cash Flow Statement 1. Cash Flow Statement exhibits inflows and outflows of cash and cash equivalents only. 2. While preparing a Cash Flow Statement, cash refers to Cash in hand, Cash at bank (demand deposits) and shortterm investments (i.e., cash & cash equivalents only). 3. Cash Flow Statement is prepared on the cash basis of accounting. 4. It is the most important tool for Short-term Financial Analysis. 5. By preparing a Cash Flow Statement, the movement of cash only can be known and identified. 6. Net cash inflows from the different activities of an enterprise, such as operating, investing and financing activities, are separately exhibited through the Cash Flow Statement. 7. It shows the brief reasons for change in cash between two Balance Sheet dates. 8. Cash Flow Statement starts with opening cash and cash equivalents of an accounting period and ends with closing cash and cash equivalents of that accounting period.

Fund Flow Statement 1. Fund Flow Statement exhibits inflows and outflows of Funds (i.e., Working Capital). 2. While preparing a Fund Flow Statement, Fund refers to Working Capital (i.e., Current Assets and Current Liabilities). 3. Fund Flow Statement is prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. 4. It is an important tool for Long-term Financial Analysis. 5. By preparing a Fund Flow Statement, the movement of Working Capital items (i.e., Current Assets and Current Liabilities) can be known and identified. 6. Net Fund Flows from the different activities of an enterprise are not separately exhibited through the Fund Flow Statement. 7. It shows the brief reasons for change in the Working Capital between the two Balance Sheet dates. 8. Fund Flow Statement shows the amount of changes between the opening and closing Working Capital balances of an accounting period.

Tutorial Notes to Students for Solving Problems For preparing a Fund Flow Statement, students are advised to follow the following steps: i. Prepare separate accounts for all non-operating items. If there is no major adjustment in some nonoperating items, it is advised to show their changes in one separate statement. ii. After considering all non-operating items, calculate the Fund from Operation. iii. Prepare a statement showing changes in the Working Capital taking operating Current Assets and Liabilities alone and get the increase or decrease in the Working Capital. iv. Finally, prepare the Fund Flow Statement showing the sources of Fund (i.e., inflows of Fund) on the left-hand side and applications or uses of Fund (i.e., outflows of Fund) on the right-hand side of the statement. Increase or decrease in the Working Capital as computed in the statement showing changes in the Working Capital would appear in the Fund Flow Statement as a balancing figure.

This Rs. 13,000 is discharged by the company partly by issue of equity shares of Rs. 9,000 and the balance in cash. Here, the balances of Equity Share Capital as on 31 December 2008 and 31 December 2009 are Rs. 40,000 and Rs. 49,000, respectively. Therefore, the equity shares of Rs. 9,000 (those issued to Z Ltd against the net assets taken over) only have been issued during the year 2009. Again, the balances of discount, on issue of shares as on 31 December 2008 and 31 December 2009, are nil and Rs. 1,000 respectively. Therefore, this discount of Rs. 1,000 has been allowed while issuing the equity shares of Rs. 9,000 to Z Ltd during the year 2009.

CHAPTER REVIEW SUMMARY  The concept of Fund is explained by different accountants and accounting bodies in different approaches such as cash and bank, Working Capital, all financial resources and so on. With reference to the preparation of Fund Flow Statement, the most preferred and accepted concept of Fund is Working Capital.  Flow of Fund means movement of or changes in Working Capital (i.e., current) items. It is identified by means of inward or outward movement of Current Assets and Current Liabilities.  A Fund Flow Statement is a summarized statement of movement of Fund (i.e., Working Capital) from different activities of a concern during an accounting period. It is prepared to locate various sources of Fund inflows into the business and also to identify various purposes of Fund outflows from the business during two consecutive balance sheet dates.  Fund Flow Statement acts as an important tool for financial analysis and shows the brief reasons for change in the Working Capital between two balance sheet dates.  Fund Flow Statement is not a basic Financial Statement, but is a supplementary statement. It does not disclose any new fact which is not reflected in the Income Statement and the Balance Sheet. Nowadays, Fund Flow Analysis is not that much relevant to the management for financial analysis as the Cash Flow Analysis.  Both sources and applications of Fund may be classified into two broad categories: Fund from operating activities and Fund from non-operating activities.  Fund from operation (or net Fund Flow from operation) refers to the difference between the inflows of Fund and outflows of Fund from the operating activities of the concern. It is the net Flow of Fund from operating activities of the concern.  Fund from operation (i.e., net Fund Flow from operational activities) may be computed under two different approaches, such as Direct Approach and Indirect Approach.  There are two opinions among the accountants as regards to the consideration whether depreciation is a source of Fund or not. As there is no movement of Fund for adjusting the depreciation, though it is an operating expense, yet it should not, generally, be regarded as a source (or a use) of Fund.  Income Statement and Balance Sheet are two basic Financial Statements whereas Fund Flow Statement is a supplementary statement which shows the changes in the financial position (i.e., Fund position) between two consecutive balance sheet dates.

Working Capital

LEARNING OBJECTIVES On completion of the study of the chapter, you should be able to understand: What is Working Capital? Need and importance of Working Capital. Different concepts and classification of Working Capital. Sources of Working Capital. Determinants of Working Capital. Components of Working Capital. Working Capital or Operating Cycle. Forecasting or Estimation of Working Capital. Valuation of work-in-process.

6.1 MEANING AND CONCEPT OF WORKING CAPITAL Working Capital refers to the portion of capital which is employed in the business to carry on its day-to-day activities. It is used by the business to perform its operating activities. Therefore, the capital invested into the business to carry on the continuous operational activities of a concern is called the ‘Working Capital.’ Working Capital of a business is invested in its Current Assets and Current Liabilities. Working Capital is the life-blood of every business concern. Without adequate Working Capital, a concern cannot perform its day-to-day operating activities smoothly. Lack of Working Capital in a business results in interruption or discontinuation of its day-to-day operational activities. 6.2 IMPORTANCE OF WORKING CAPITAL As mentioned earlier, Working Capital is the life-blood of every business concern. Accordingly, it has immense importance to every business concern. It helps in the following business activities of every concern: i. Smooth running of operating activities. ii. A continuous or uninterrupted flow of production. iii. Ensures continuous supply of raw materials in time at a least price. iv. Regularity in payment to suppliers of raw materials and in payment of wages and overhead. v. Efficient use of Fixed Assets. vi. Easy availability of bank overdraft or short-term loans. vii. Regularity in payment of interest on loan and of dividend to shareholders. 6.3 NEED FOR WORKING CAPITAL The cash invested in raw materials, wages and overheads are brought back into the business only after realization from the sale of goods. There is a time lag between such cash engagement and its recovery through sales. To carry on a continuous production process, Working Capital is essentially required to every business concern till

sales realization occurs. Working Capital of a business provides a continuous finance for purchasing raw materials and payment of wages and overheads till the cash is brought back into the business by way of sales realization. Once the cash is realized from the sales, it is reinvested into the business for purchasing raw materials and payment of wages and overheads. The process goes on similarly. 6.4 DIFFERENT CONCEPTS AND CLASSIFICATION OF WORKING CAPITAL From the different basis or viewpoints, Working Capital may be classified in different ways. Different classifications of Working Capital are first shown and thereafter these classifications are discussed in Figure 6.1. Classification of Working Capital

Classification of Working Capital

6.4.1 Classification of Working Capital on the Basis of Concept From the conceptual point of view, Working Capital is classified into two parts. They are: (i) Gross Working Capital; and (ii) Net Working Capital. (i) Gross Working Capital: This is a wider concept of Working Capital. Under this concept, the capital invested in the total Current Assets alone is considered as the Working Capital. Therefore, Gross Working Capital refers to the capital invested in the total Current Assets of a business. This concept of Working Capital is called ‘Balance Sheet approach of Working Capital.’ As the Gross Working Capital is represented by the sum of total Current Assets, it always becomes a positive value. Gross Working Capital = Total Current Assets. If the Gross Working Capital is defined from the viewpoint of a complete Balance Sheet, it may be expressed as follows: Gross Working Capital = Proprietors’ Fund + Total Debt − Fixed Assets. Where, Proprietors’ Fund = Share Capital + Reserves & Surplus − Miscellaneous Expenditure and Total Debt = Long-term Loan + Current Liabilities. (ii) Net Working Capital: This is a narrower concept of Working Capital. Under this concept, the capital invested in the total Current Assets less the total Current Liabilities is considered as the Working Capital. Therefore, Net Working Capital refers to the difference between the total Current Assets and the total Current Liabilities of a business. This is the most popular concept of the Working Capital. This concept of Working Capital is also called ‘Balance Sheet approach of Working Capital.’ Net Working Capital = Total Current Assets − Total Current Liabilities. If the Net Working Capital is defined from the viewpoint of a complete Balance Sheet, it may be expressed as follows: Net Working Capital = Proprietors’ Fund + Long-term Loan − Fixed Assets.

Again, Net Working Capital is sub-classified into two parts. These are: (a) Positive Working Capital and (b) Negative Working Capital. (a) Positive Working Capital: If the total Current Assets of a concern are more than its total Current Liabilities, the difference between them is called the positive Net Working Capital. Therefore, it is nothing but the excess of total Current Assets of a concern over its total Current Liabilities. It indicates a favourable shortterm solvency position of a concern. (b) Negative Working Capital: If the total Current Liabilities of a concern is more than its total Current Assets, then the difference between them is called the negative Net Working Capital. Therefore, it is nothing but the excess of total Current Liabilities of a concern over its total Current Assets. It indicates an adverse short-term solvency position of a concern. 6.4.2 Classification of Working Capital on the Basis of Time From the point of view of time span, Working Capital is classified into two parts. They are: (i) Permanent Working Capital; and (ii) Temporary Working Capital. (i) Permanent Working Capital: Permanent Working Capital is the portion of the Working Capital which remains permanently invested into the business. It is the minimum amount of Working Capital which is always kept ready in the form of Current Assets to carry on operational activities of a concern uninterruptedly throughout the year. It constitutes the minimum amount of Working Capital locked up in Current Assets in the form of stock of raw materials, work-in-process (WIP), finished goods, loose tools, spare parts, cash in hand and at bank and so on, throughout the year, so that the normal operational activities of the concern could never be discontinued. This type of Working Capital is also known as Core Current Assets or Core Working Capital. As this type of Working Capital is required to be invested permanently in the Current Assets of a concern, it is generally financed out of long-term sources of capital of the concern, such as issue of shares, dentures and so on. (ii) Temporary Working Capital: Permanent Working Capital is the portion of Working Capital which is required for a short period over and above the permanent Working Capital. It is the additional Working Capital that a concern needs in the form of inventories, receivable, cash and so on, during different times of the year. This type of Working Capital always changes its forms from cash to inventory, inventory to receivables and receivables to cash again. This type of Working Capital is also called Variable Working Capital or Seasonal Working Capital. 6.5 SOURCES OF WORKING CAPITAL Every concern has to finance its Working Capital out of various sources. Fixed Working Capital of the business is financed out of the long-term capital employed in the business, whereas temporary Working Capital of the business is arranged out of short-term capital employed in the business. Different sources of permanent and temporary Working Capital are written as follows: 6.5.1 Sources of Permanent Working Capital (i) External sources: (a) Issue of shares; (b) Issue of debentures; and (c) Raising of long-term loans. (ii) Internal sources: (a) Ploughing back of profit or reinvestment of profit. 6.5.2 Sources of Temporary Working Capital (i) External sources: (a) Trade creditors; (b) Advance from customers; (c) Short-term borrowings; (d) Bank overdraft; (e) Outstanding wages and expenses; and (f) Short-term public deposits. (ii) Internal sources: (a) Provision for Depreciation and (b) Provision for Taxation.

6.6 DETERMINANTS OF WORKING CAPITAL Following are the factors that are to be considered in determining the Working Capital Requirements: i. Nature of the business. ii. Size of the business. iii. Volume of production and sales. iv. Length of operating cycle. v. Production policy. vi. Credit policy. vii. Operational efficiency. viii. Inventory policy. ix. Seasonal variation. x. Expansion and growth of the business. xi. Depreciation policy. xii. Level of taxes. xiii. Dividend policy. xiv. Cash Reserve requirement. xv. Price-level changes. 6.7 COMPONENTS OF WORKING CAPITAL As Working Capital is the difference between the Current Assets and Current Liabilities, the components of Working Capital are Current Assets and Current Liabilities. Current assets are those assets which can be converted into cash within one accounting year in the ordinary course of business. These assets are easily convertible into cash. Examples of currents assets are: stock of Raw Materials, WIP, Finished Goods, Sundry Debtors, Cash in hand, Cash at bank, Bills Receivable, Prepaid Expenses, Accrued Incomes and so on. On the other hand, Current Liabilities are those liabilities which are intended to be repaid within one accounting year in the ordinary course of business. These liabilities are readily payable in cash. Examples of Current Liabilities are: Sundry Creditors, Bills Payable, Outstanding Expenses, Pre-received Incomes and so on. Above all, Current Assets and Current Liabilities are related to the operational activities of the concern and are termed as Operating Current Assets and Operating Current Liabilities. Provision for taxation, proposed dividend and outstanding interest on loan or debentures are also Current Liabilities, but these are not directly related to the operational activities of the concern and are termed as non-operating Current Liabilities. 6.8 POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE WORKING CAPITAL Whenever the Working Capital is determined on the basis of Gross Working Capital concept, it always becomes a positive Working Capital, as the Gross Working Capital represents the sum of all Current Assets only. But, on the other hand, whenever the Working Capital is determined on the basis of Net Working Capital concept, it may be positive- or negative Working Capital, as Net Working Capital represents the difference between the Current Assets and Current Liabilities. Whenever the total Current Assets exceed the total Current Liabilities, it results in a positive Working Capital. Whenever the total Current Liabilities exceed the total Current Assets, it results in a negative Working Capital. 6.9 WORKING CAPITAL OR OPERATING CYCLE Working Capital Cycle or Operating Cycle refers to the period that an enterprise takes in converting the cash back into the business from the cash initially invested in various operating activities of the enterprise. The said cycle starts from the cash blocked by the way of purchase of raw materials and ends with the realization of cash out of sales. Therefore, the said cycle is the time lag between the cash investment in purchase of raw materials and

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

the recovery of cash by the way of sale of goods. In the mean period, the cash engaged in operation is being gradually converted into different forms of Working Capital till its recovery from the sales. Cash, thus, engaged in the operating activities is being blocked in the following forms of Working Capital: i. Cash blocked in purchase of raw materials—thus the cash is being converted into the stock of raw materials. ii. From the production process, the further cash is blocked by way of payment of wages and overheads along with the cash blocked in the raw materials—thus the stock of raw materials and cash paid for wages and overheads are being blocked into the stock of WIP. iii. Amount incurred for raw materials, wages and overheads are further blocked in the finished goods— thus the stock of WIP is being converted into the stock of finished goods. iv. If the finished goods are sold on credit, then the amount invested in raw materials, wages and overheads, along with profit, are further blocked in debtors—thus the stock of finished goods is being converted into debtors. v. Cash is brought back into the business by way of realization of sales from debtors—thus the amount blocked in debtors is being converted into cash. 6.10 ESTIMATION OR FORECASTING OF WORKING CAPITAL Forecasting of Working Capital refers to the estimation of Working Capital Requirement for a certain future period. It is made so as to indicate the amount of Working Capital required for the future period and the sources from which the required amount of Working Capital can be financed. Following factors should be taken into consideration for the estimation of Working Capital Requirement: i. Expected annual production quantity. ii. Cost of raw materials, wages and overheads per unit of the product. iii. Raw materials holding period in store before use. iv. Production-processing period. v. Finished goods storage period before sale. vi. Credit period allowed to sundry debtors for credit sales. vii. Credit period received from the sundry creditors against the credit purchases of raw materials. viii. Lag in the payment of wages and overheads. ix. Management policy regarding inclusion of profit element into Working Capital blocked in the amount due from debtors. x. Amount of cash to be kept in hand for contingencies. 6.11 PROCEDURE FOR ESTIMATION/FORECASTING OF WORKING CAPITAL The following steps are to be followed for the estimation or forecasting of Working Capital Requirement: i. Calculation of average production: The average estimated production per period (i.e., per day or per week or per month) is to be calculated first. ii. Calculation of average cost and sales: Secondly, the average cost of each element of cost as well as the total cost per period is to be calculated—that is, the cost of material, wages and overhead per day or per week or per month and the total cost per month to be calculated. The profit per period is to be added to the total cost per period so as to get the sales per period. iii. Calculation of period of block: The period of block of each element of cost, such as materials, wages and overheads in the operating cycle, are to be separately calculated, that is, the cost of materials blocked in the store, in the production process, in the finished goods and in the debtors; wages and overhead costs blocked in the production process, in the finished goods and in the debtors; and the profit blocked in the debtors, if the profit element of Working Capital is considered.

WORKING CAPITAL

iv. Calculation of Working Capital Requirement: Firstly, the Working Capital Requirement for each element of cost (i.e., for materials, labour and overheads) is to be separately calculated at different stages of the operating cycle (i.e., in store, production process, finished goods and debtors) by multiplying their respective average cost per period with the period of block at the respective stages of the operating cycle. If any credit period is allowed by the suppliers of materials and if there is any time lag for the payment of wages and overheads, then the Working Capital not required for such credit period is to be deducted from the Working Capital Requirement for materials, wages and overheads, respectively. Finally, the Working Capital Requirements for each element of cost as calculated in the above are to be added to get the total Working Capital Requirement without any profit. If the profit blocked in debtors is considered, then the amount of profit blocked per period is to be calculated by multiplying the amount of profit blocked per period with the credit period allowed to debtors, which is to be added to the total Working Capital Requirement without any profit as calculated in the above to get the total Working Capital Requirement with the profit. If any cash balance is required to be kept in hand, then that amount is to be added to the total Working Capital Requirement with profit, as calculated in the above to get the ‘Net Working Capital Requirement with profit and cash balance.’ 6.12 VALUATION OF STOCK OF WORK-IN-PROGRESS (WIP) As the degree of completion of the stock of WIP cannot be specifically known, it is valued on the assumption that it is completed up to 100% of the raw materials, 50% of the wages and 50% the of overheads. As the stock of WIP as mentioned above, 50% of the amount blocked per period (i.e., per day or per week or per month) in wages and overheads are to be taken for ascertaining the Working Capital that is required for wages and overheads, considering the period of block per period in wages and overheads in full. Alternatively, the periods of block for wages and overheads could be taken at 50% of the normal period, considering the amount blocked per period in wages and overheads in full. But the Working Capital required for materials in WIP is to be taken as usual, that is, the full period of block of materials with the full amount blocked in the materials per period. 6.13 DIFFERENT APPROACHES OF ESTIMATION/FORECASTING OF WORKING CAPITAL Working Capital Requirement for a future period may be estimated or forecasted in different approaches as shown in the following: First Approach: Statement showing the requirement of Working Capital (with profit) for the period Elements of Working Capital Current Assets: Stock of Raw Materials Stock of WIP Stock of Finished Goods Sundry Debtors Cash & Bank Less:

Tutorial Notes to Students for Solving Problems For estimating the Working Capital Requirement, students are advised to follow the following steps: i. Convert the expected annual production into production per month, week or day, depending upon the suitability of the given case. ii. Prepare an estimated cost sheet for a month or week or day, as per the production that is converted under 1 above, showing therein the element-wise costs (i.e., materials, wages and overheads), total cost, profit and the selling price. iii. Compute the period of block, if not given. iv. Finally, prepare a statement showing the Working Capital Requirement with suitable columns and calculate the amount of Working Capital blocked in materials, wages and overheads. The profit element may or may not be considered, if not otherwise stated. Get the amount of ‘Working Capital Requirement without cash’ adding up to the Working Capital blocked in each element of cost and profit. v. If the concern desires to maintain a cash balance for contingencies, then add the amount of cash balance that is required to be kept with the amount of Working Capital Requirement without cash as ascertained under 4 above and get the amount of Working Capital Requirement with cash.

Projected Weekly Sales = Rs. 1,30,000 ÷ 52 = Rs.2,500 Projected Weekly Cost = Weekly sales – Weekly Profit = Rs. 2,500 – (25% on cost) = Rs. 2,500 – (1/4 on cost) = Rs. 2,500 – (1/5 on sales) = Rs. 2,500 – (1/5 on Rs. 2,500) = Rs. 2,500 – Rs. 500 = Rs. 2,000. 2. Debtors are valued at sales, but stocks and creditors are valued at cost.

WORKING CAPITAL

Stop and Think 1. For the solution made under Alternative 1, Working Note 3 is only to be made. For solutions made under Alternatives 1 and 2, Working Notes 2 and 3 are to be made. 2. As the stock of WIP is valued at 100% of raw materials, 50% of wages and 50% of overheads, 50% of the amount blocked per month in wages and overheads have been taken for ascertaining the Working Capital Requirement for wages and overheads, considering the period of block per month in the wages and overheads in full. Alternatively, the periods of block per month for wages and overheads could have been taken at 50% of the normal period, considering the amount blocked per month in wages and overheads in full. 3. Alternatively, the Working Capital Requirement for the year 2010 without any profit could have been ascertained. In such a case, the profit element of the Working Capital is to be ignored. 4. Students are advised to follow any one of the different alternative solutions for their examination purpose, if no specific approach is asked to follow in the question.

Problem 6 Kalyan Ltd normally produces and sells 1,04,000 units of a product annually. In 2010, the company decides to operate at 50% of its capacity at the following Cost Price structure: Rs. 5.00 3.00 2.00 2.00

In such a case, the Working Capital blocked in profit is to be considered. 2. As the stock of WIP is valued at 100% of raw materials, 50% of wages and 50% of overheads, the 50% of the amounts blocked per month in wages and overheads have been taken for ascertaining the Working Capital Requirement for wages and overheads, considering the period of block per month in wages and overheads in full. Alternatively, the periods of block per month for wages and overheads could have been taken at 50% of the normal period, considering the amount blocked per month in wages and overheads in full.

Problem 7 Tata Manufacturing Co. started for production of NANO cars at Calcutta in March 2008 and purchased a land for Rs. 10,00,000 and incurred Rs. 5,00,00,000 on its factory construction. However, before the production was started, due to labour problems, the company has shifted its factory to Maharashtra, where it had the benefit of low overheads. Overheads are 50% of the labour expenses in Maharashtra. Following is the Cost Structure per car in Maharashtra for the year 2009–10: Steel Spare parts Engine Labour charges

50 kg @ Rs. 1,000 per kg 10 kg @ Rs. 200 per kg 1 engine @ Rs. 20,000 per engine 100 hrs @ Rs. 20 per hour

From the following additional information, calculate the Working Capital Requirement for the company that is to be started in Maharashtra for the year 2009–10: i. Steel remains in stock for 2 months, spare parts for 1 month and engine for 6 months. ii. Suppliers of steel allow credit for 1 month, suppliers of spare parts for 15 days and suppliers of engine for 2 months. iii. Time lag for payment of labour and overheads is 1 month. iv. Cars will be in stock for 15 days after production. v. Production cycle is for 1 month. vi. Estimated production during the year 2009–10 will be 5,000 NANO cars. [B.Com.

 Working Notes 1. Full production capacity (i.e., 100%) = 5,20,000 units per year. Estimated annual production at 80% current capacity level = 5,20,000 × 80 ÷ 100 = 4,16,000 units. Estimated weekly production at the current level of operation = 4,16,000 ÷ 52 = 8,000 units. 2. Estimated Cost Sheet for a Week

Finished Goods Storage Period =

Alternative Calculation: Total Cost for production of 8,000 units per week = Rs. 1,44,000. Total Cost per unit = Rs. 1,44,000 ÷ 8,000 = Rs. 18. Value of Stock of Finished Goods of 24,000 units = 24,000 × Rs. 18 = Rs. 4,32,000. Stock of Finished Goods Total Cost per week Rs. 4,32,000 = Rs. 1,44,000 = 3 weeks

Notes 1. Here, the Working Capital Requirement with profit has been determined. 2. Stock of WIP is valued on the assumption that it is completed to the extent of (i.e., it consists of) 100% of raw materials, 50% of wages and 50% of overheads. That is why, the period of block for wages and overheads at WIP stage are taken at 50% (i.e., instead of 2 weeks, taken at 1 week), considering the amount blocked per month in full.

Problem 11 A company is presently operating at 60% of its capacity of production and produces 45,000 units of a product annually. In 2010, the company decides to operate at 50% of its capacity at the following Cost Price structure and periods of block:

6. Treatment of WIP for a Month of 2010 As the second working shift of a day is started immediately after completion of the first working shift of the day, WIP of the first shift is being converted into the Finished Goods in the second shift of the same day. At the end of a day, only the WIP of the second working shift remains incomplete and not the WIP of the first shift. Therefore, due to working an extra shift in a day, the quantity of WIP does not become double, rather it remains the same as in the case of single working shift. Hence, by working an extra shift in a month of 2010, other things such as Finished Goods and sales, become double (i.e., 2,000 units per month to 4,000 units per month), but WIP remains unchanged (i.e., 2,000 units). Value of Raw Materials included in WIP (2,000 units × Rs. 5.40)

= Rs. 10,800.

Value of wages included in WIP (2,000 units × Rs. 4.00)

= Rs. 8,000.

Value of overheads included in WIP (2,000 units × Rs. 3.00)

= Rs. 6,000.

Stop and Think 1. Here, the Working Capital Requirement with profit has been determined. 2. Stock of WIP is valued on the assumption that it is completed to the extent of (i.e., it consists of ) 100% of raw materials, 50% of wages and 50% of overheads. That is why, the period of block for wages and overheads at WIP stage are taken at 50% (i.e., instead of 1 month, taken at 15 days), considering the full amount blocked per month.

CHAPTER REVIEW SUMMARY  Working Capital refers to the portion of the capital which is employed in the business to carry on its day-to-day activities. It is used by the business to perform its operating activities.  Working Capital is the life-blood of every business concern and accordingly, it has immense importance to every business concern.  To carry on a continuous production process, the Working Capital is essentially required to every business concern till sales realization occurs. Working Capital of a business provides continuous finance for purchasing raw materials and payment of wages and overheads till cash is brought back into the business by way of sales realization.  From the different basis or viewpoints, Working Capital may be classified in different ways, such as gross Working Capital and Net Working Capital; positive Working Capital and negative Working Capital; and permanent Working Capital and temporary Working Capital.  Fixed Working Capital of the business is financed out of the long-term capital employed in the business, whereas temporary Working Capital of the business is arranged out of short-term capital employed in the business.  Nature of the business, size of the business, volume of production and sales, length of operating cycle, production policy, credit policy, and operational efficiency, among other factors, are the determinants of Working Capital Requirement.  Components of Working Capital are Current Assets and Current Liabilities.  Gross Working Capital always becomes positive Working Capital, but Net Working Capital may either be positive or negative Working Capital.  Working Capital cycle or Operating cycle refers to the period that an enterprise takes in converting the cash back into the business from the cash initially invested in various operating activities of the enterprise. The said cycle starts from the cash blocked by way of purchase of raw materials and ends with realization of cash out of sales.  Forecasting of Working Capital refers to the estimation of Working Capital Requirement for a certain future period.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES On completion of the study of the chapter, you should be able to understand: What is Budget and Budgeting? What is Budgetary Control? Objectives, advantages and limitations of Budgetary Control. Comparison between Budget and Budgetary Control. Comparison between Standard Costing and Budgetary Control. Concept of Zero-based Budgeting. Classification of Budget.

7.1 MEANING OF BUDGET According to CIMA, London, Budget is defined as ‘a financial and/or quantitative statement prepared and approved prior to a defined period of time, of the policy to be pursued during that period for the purpose of attaining a given objective. It may include income, expenditure and the employment of capital.’ In other words, Budget refers to a plan covering all the sectors of operations expressed in monetary and/or quantitative terms for a definite future period of time. Budget exhibits managerial plans and policies, for the organization as a whole, or a part thereof, to achieve business goals and objectives in quantitative terms for a definite future period. 7.2 MEANING OF BUDGETING According to J. Batty, ‘the entire process of preparing the Budgets is known as Budgeting.’ Therefore, the term Budgeting refers to the act of preparing Budgets. It is the managerial action of formulating Budgets. 7.3 FEATURES OF BUDGET A Budget must have the following features: i. It should reflect the managerial plans and policies to achieve business goals and objectives. ii. It is expressed either in monetary terms or quantitative terms or both. iii. It is a comprehensive plan for a definite future period. iv. Though it is basically an instrument of planning, it still provides the basis for performance evaluation and control. 7.4 BUDGETARY CONTROL According to CIMA, London, ‘Budgetary Control is the establishment of Budgets relating to the responsibilities of executives of a policy and the continuous comparison of the actual with the budgeted results, either to secure by individual action the objective of the policy or to provide a basis for its revision.’

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

In other words, Budgetary Control is a technique of control under which Budgets are prepared at first for all business activities of an organization and actual performances of those business activities are compared with the respective budgeted data so that remedial measures can be taken for any adverse deviation from the Budget. Therefore, Budgetary Control refers to the application of a comprehensive system of Budgeting in the organization to assist the management in the process of its planning, coordinating, controlling and performance evaluation. It is an effective tool to the management to achieve the business goals and objectives of the organization. 7.5 OBJECTIVES OF BUDGETARY CONTROL Following are the main objectives of a Budgetary Control System: i. Performance Evaluation: It is the most effective tool to the management for the performance evaluation of all the business activities of the organization. ii. Planning: It is a very effective tool of planning for all business activities. iii. Defining Responsibilities: One of the important objectives of Budgetary Control is to define the responsibility of the concerned executive who is engaged in different business activities. iv. Coordinating: It helps in coordinating various divisional or sectional activities with a view to attain the business goals and objectives successfully. v. Communicating: It acts as an effective communicative device of the business objectives among the different levels of employees of an organization. vi. Motivating: It also acts as a useful motivating device to perform clearly the defined responsibilities of different executives of the organization. vii. Cost Control: It is used as a very powerful tool for controlling the costs of an organization. 7.6 ADVANTAGES OF BUDGETARY CONTROL Several advantages that accrue to Budgetary Control are as follows: i. It acts as a very useful and effective tool for controlling costs. ii. It provides yardsticks for evaluation of actual performance. iii. It clearly defines the areas of responsibility of all concerned executives who are engaged in various business activities. iv. It points out the efficiency of various business activities. v. It increases the operational efficiency of all business activities. vi. It helps the management in the process of its planning in respect of various business activities. vii. It coordinates various activities of different sections, divisions or departments of the organization. viii. It facilitates the effective utilizations of all resources of the organization. ix. It creates the habit of planning in the minds of the employees. x. It serves as a communicating device in the organization. 7.7 LIMITATIONS OF BUDGETARY CONTROL In spite of having many advantages of Budgetary Control, it suffers from the following limitations: i. Budget Plans are based on estimates which may not be accurate in all cases. ii. It plays a limited role in the process of controlling various business activities. iii. Budgetary Control System introduced in an organization may be resisted by some employees who are not as much efficient as others. iv. Introduction of Budgetary Control System in an organization is an expensive programme. v. Though it acts as an effective tool of the management, it is not a substitute of the management. vi. It loses its usefulness if it is not revised with the changing circumstances.

BUDGET AND BUDGETARY CONTROL

469

7.8 COMPARISON BETWEEN BUDGET AND BUDGETARY CONTROL Budget is a quantitative plan of action for a future period. On the other hand, Budgetary Control is a system of controlling costs and performances of various business activities through preparation of Budget, assigning responsibilities, evaluation of actual performances by comparing the actual results with the Budgeted data and taking remedial measures in case of any adverse deviation observed. Therefore, Budget is a planning tool that estimates the future courses of action, whereas Budgetary Control is a controlling system that uses Budget and ensures an evaluation of the actual performance. Although Budget is an integral part of Budgetary Control system, both are interrelated and dependent on each other. Preparation of Budget becomes effectively useful if Budgetary Control System is introduced in the organization. On the other hand, application of Budgetary Control system primarily depends on the preparation of Budget. 7.9 COMPARISON BETWEEN STANDARD COSTING AND BUDGETARY CONTROL Standard Costing and Budgetary Control have the common objective of Cost Control by establishing predetermined costs. Although both of them follow certain common basic principles, such as establishment of predetermined targets of performance, measurement of actual performance, comparison of actual performance with the predetermined performance, analysis of the differences between predetermined and actual performance, adoption of remedial measures—wherever necessary and so on, there are a number of fundamental differences between Standard Costing and Budgetary Control. These differences are as follows: Standard Costing 1. Standard Costing is based on technical assessment. 2. It is the method of preparation of standard cost and application of those for measuring the efficiency of the Actual Cost. 3. It is a projection of cost accounts. 4. It is mainly concerned with the ascertainment and control of costs. 5. Standard is set mainly in respect of manufacturing functions such as different elements of cost and sales. 6. Standard Costing sets the standard which should be maintained in the actual performance. 7. It cannot be applied without Budget. 8. It is more an intensive technique of controlling cost. 9. It cannot be applied in part. 10. Under Standard Costing, variances are revealed through different accounts.

Budgetary Control 1. Budgetary Control is based on past performance adjusted with future trend. 2. It is the method of forecasting cost by preparation of a Budget prior to a definite period to attain the given objectives. 3. Budget is a projection of Financial Accounts. 4. It is mainly concerned with the profitability and financial position of a concern. 5. It is prepared in respect of different functions of the business, such as purchase, wages, production and sales. 6. It sets up maximum limits of expenses, beyond which the actual expenses should not normally exceed. 7. It can be operated without standard. 8. It is more an extensive approach which covers all the business functions of a concern. 9. It can be applied in part. 10. In Budgetary Control, variances are used as a statistical information only.

7.10 ZERO-BASED BUDGETING (ZBB) According to the Official Terminology of CIMA, London, Zero-based Budgeting is defined as ‘a method of Budgeting whereby all activities are re-evaluated each time a Budget is formulated. Each functional Budget starts with the assumption that the function does not exist and is at zero cost. Increments of cost are compared with increments of benefits culminating in the planned maximum benefit given the Budgeted cost.’ Zero-based Budgeting (ZBB) is an alternative budgeting system that starts with zero base. It is a newly invented Budget technique where executives are required to start at Zero Budget level every year and justify all the costs of the existing function in comparison with all present and future functions. It attempts to review and defend all functions and costs every year.

7.11 CLASSIFICATION OR TYPES OF BUDGET Budget is generally classified on the basis of the needs of the respective organization. Preparation of Budget may be required by an organization for the purpose of its flexibility of production or for the purpose of its functions involved or for the purpose of its period covered. Therefore, Budget is usually classified into many parts and sub-parts on the basis of its nature of requirement by the organization. Classification or types of Budget is shown in Figure 7.1.

7.11.1 Classification on the Basis of Period On the basis of the period or time covered in the Budget period, Budget is classified into two parts: (i) Short-term Budget; and (ii) Long-term Budget. i. Long-term Budget: When a Budget is prepared for a business activity covering a period of more than 1 year, then it is called Long-term Budget. Long-term Budgets are generally prepared for long-term planning of the organization. Industries involved in producing goods or providing services during a longer generation period like electricity, engineering goods, sugar and so on, quite often use Long-term Budget. ii. Short-term Budget: When a Budget is prepared covering a period of 1 year or less, it is called Shortterm Budget. An organization prefers to prepare a Short-term Budget for sales, cash and so on. Consumer-goods producing industries such as textile, cotton, sugar and so on, quite often use Shortterm Budget.

7.11.2 Classification on the Basis of Flexibility of Production On the basis of flexibility of production capacity, Budget is classified into three parts: (i) Fixed Budget; (ii) Flexible Budget; and (iii) Current Budget. i. Fixed Budget: Fixed Budget is prepared for a particular level of production. This type of Budget is suitable for a static production level condition. According to ICWA, London, ‘Fixed Budget is a Budget which is designed to remain unchanged irrespective of the level of activity actually attained.’ ii. Flexible Budget: A Flexible Budget consists of a series of Budgets prepared in respect of different levels of activity during a Budget period. A Flexible Budget is a series of Fixed Budgets prepared for different levels of production. It is useful in case of those concerns whose level of activity rapidly changes due to unforeseen changes in the business condition. According to ICWA, London, ‘Flexible Budget is a Budget which, by recognizing the difference between Fixed, Semi-Fixed and Variable Costs, is designed to change in relation to the level of activity attained.’ iii. Current Budget: This Budget relates to the current business activities of a concern and is prepared under current conditions for a very short period. According to ICWA, London, ‘Current Budget is a Budget which is established for use over a short period of time and is related to Current Conditions.’ 7.11.3 Classification on the Basis of Function or Coverage On the basis of the function area of a concern, Budget is classified into three parts: (i) Operating Budget; (ii) Financial Budget; and (iii) Master Budget. i. Operating Budget: This Budget relates to the different activities or operations of a concern. It is a plan of the expected revenues and costs of the concern. It is ordinarily set out to cover each financial year. As every concern has different sections of its operations, Operating Budget is prepared for each of such operational activity section. Accordingly, it is classified into three parts: (a) Production Budget; (b) Cost Budget; and (c) Sales Budget. a. Production Budget: Production Budget is prepared in relation to the Sales Budget for the Budgeted period of the concern. It establishes the level of production planned for the Budget period. It is prepared for the number of units that are to be produced in conformity with the sales as projected by the Sales Budget. It is expressed both in units as well as values. b. Cost Budget: Production Budget estimates the number of units to be produced during the Budget period. Cost Budget is the budget for different elements of cost to be incurred for producing the output as estimated in the Production Budget. It estimates the total cost that is to be incurred for the Budgeted output. Therefore, Cost Budget consists of a series of Budgets for every element of cost, materials, labour, overheads and so on. It comprises the following sub-budgets: 1. Material Budget: It is concerned with the estimation of quantity (and also value) of materials required for the product-wise budgeted production. It exhibits per unit as well as the total consumption of materials and cost of materials that are required for the budgeted production. 2. Labour Budget: Labour Budget is concerned with the Estimation of Direct Labour hours (and also labour cost) required for the product-wise budgeted production. It exhibits per unit as well as total labour hours and labour cost that are required for the budgeted production. 3. Production Overhead Budget: As we know, Production Overhead consists of Indirect Materials, Indirect Labour and Indirect Expenses that are required for the production. Therefore, it is concerned with the estimation of indirect materials, indirect labour and indirect expenses required for the product-wise Budgeted production. It exhibits per unit as well as total Production Overhead Cost required for the Budgeted production. In a Production Overhead Budget, generally, Production Overhead Cost is classified into Fixed Cost, Semi-Variable Cost and Variable Cost.

4. Administration Overhead Budget: It estimates all office- and administration overhead costs that are to be incurred for the Budgeted production. It exhibits per unit as well as the total of such cost that are to be incurred for the Budgeted production. 5. Selling and Distribution Overhead Budget: It estimates all Selling and Distribution Overhead costs that are to be incurred for the budgeted production. It exhibits per unit as well as the total of such cost that are to be incurred for the budgeted production. 6. Research and Development Cost Budget: Nowadays, generally, every manufacturing concern runs a research and development wing for improving and upgrading the quality of its products, for which the concern spends a reasonable amount every year. Research and Development Budget estimates all the costs that are to be incurred for research and development activities of the concern during the budgeted period. Such cost is charged to the production units for the Budgeted period. Accordingly, it exhibits per unit as well as the total of such cost that are to be incurred for the budgeted production. c. Sales Budget: It is the key Budget that leads to the preparation of all other functional or Operating Budgets. A Sales Budget is an estimate of the expected sales during a Budget period that is expressed in terms of both Sales Units as well as Sales Values. A Sales Budget is the starting point, on the basis of which all other functional or Operating Budgets are prepared. ii. Financial Budget: Financial Budget relates to all expected financial transactions that are to be incurred during the Budget period. It may, generally, be of two types: (a) Cash Budget; and (b) CapitalExpenditure Budget. a. Cash Budget: A Cash Budget is an estimate of the expected cash receipts and the expected cash payments that may take place during the Budget period. It includes all cash receipts and cash payments, whether of revenue or capital nature, of operating or non-operating nature during the Budget period. It is, therefore, a summary of the future cash book. Finally, it discloses both cash in hand as well as at bank, at the end of the Budget period. b. Capital Expenditure Budget: A Capital Expenditure Budget lays down a plan of the estimated future expenditure that is to be incurred by the concern during the Budget period on Fixed Assets. This Budget is based on the Forecast of Capital Expenditure that is required for the various divisions of a concern during a Budget period. iii. Master Budget: Master Budget is the summary of all the Functional Budgets. It is the overall Budget of a concern which includes the summary of all the functional activities of the concern. According to ICWA, London, ‘Master Budget is the Summary Budget, incorporating its component Functional Budgets and which is finally approved, adopted and employed.’ It coordinates the various activities of the business. A Master Budget generally includes: (a) Sales Budget; (b) Production Budget; (c) Cost Budget; (d) Cash Budget; (e) Projected Income Statement; and (f) Projected Balance Sheet.

Tutorial Notes to Students for Solving Problems How do you identify the nature of costs? i. Variable Cost: Per unit cost remains constant at different levels of output, although the total cost changes with the change in the output level. ii. Fixed Cost: The Total Cost remains constant at different levels of output, though the per unit cost changes with the change in the output level. iii. Semi-Variable Cost: Neither the Total Cost nor the per unit cost remains constant at different levels of output, i.e., both Total Cost as well as per unit cost vary at different output levels.

BUDGET AND BUDGETARY CONTROL

Tutorial Note i. It is stated in the problem that the estimated Closing Stock of finished goods at the end of each month is equal to the estimated sales for the next month. Therefore, sales for the month of May represent the Closing Stock of finished goods of April. Similarly, sales for the month of June represent the Closing Stock of finished goods of May and so on. ii. Sales for the month of May represent the Closing Stock of finished goods of April, which is also the Opening Stock of May. Similarly, sales for the month of April represent the Closing Stock of finished goods of March, which is also the Opening Stock for April. The Opening Stocks of finished goods for the subsequent months have been computed in this way. iii. It is stated in the problem that the estimated Closing Stock of raw materials at the end of each month is equal to the estimated consumption (i.e., the estimated production) for the next month. Therefore, the production for the month of May (i.e., 11,000 units × 2 kg) represents the Closing Stock of raw materials of April. Similarly, the production for the month of June represents the Closing Stock of raw materials of May and so on. iv. Production for the month of May represents the Closing Stock of raw materials of April, which is also the Opening Stock of May. Similarly, the production for the month of April represents the Closing Stock of raw materials of March, which is also the Opening Stock for April. Opening Stocks of raw materials for the subsequent months have been computed in this way.

Tutorial Note 1. It is stated in the problem that the estimated Finished Stock at the end of each month is equal to half of the estimated sales for the next month. Therefore, half of the sales for August represent the Closing Stock at the end of July. Similarly, half of the sales for September represent the Closing Stock at the end of August and so on. 2. Half of the sales for August represent the Closing Stock at the end of July, which is also the Opening Stock for August. Similarly, half of the sales for July represent the Closing Stock at the end of June, which is also the Opening Stock for July. Opening Stocks for the subsequent months have been computed in this way. 3. Total Fixed Overheads for 12 months of 2009 is estimated at Rs. 5,00,000. Therefore, the Total Fixed Overheads for 6 productive months of 2009 = 1/2 of Rs. 5,00,000 = Rs. 2,50,000

The production pattern in each quarter is based on 80% of the sales of the current quarter and 20% of the sales of the next quarter. The Opening Stock of Raw Materials in the beginning of the year is 10,000 kg and the Closing Stock at the end of the year is required to be maintained at 5,000 kg. Each unit of finished output requires 2 kg of Raw Materials. The company proposes to purchase the entire annual requirement of Raw Materials in the first three quarters in the proportion and at the prices given as follows: Purchase of Materials in % to Total Annual Requirement in Quantity 30% 50% 20%

At a meeting of the Divisional Sales Managers, the following decisions have been taken: i. The Sales Managers contend that there is a high potential demand for product Phool and this product has been under-priced. Therefore, the price of product Phool should be increased by Rs. 2. ii. Product Kante is not selling at the expected rate as it is over-priced. Therefore, if the selling price of this product is reduced by Re. 1, then it is expected that the market would absorb more. On the basis of these price changes and impact of additional advertisement, the Divisional Sales Managers have made the following estimates: Market

Comments i. Total profit increases from Rs. 2,00,000 to Rs. 2,12,000 when production level increases from 10,000 units to 12,000 units. But it does not increase further when production level increases from 12,000 units to 16,000 units. ii. As the level of production increases, percentage of profit on sales gradually decreases from 10% to 9.10% and 9.10% to 6.97%. iii. It is most profitable to raise the production up to 12,000 units as, at this level of production, highest profit of Rs. 2,12,000 is earned. It is not profitable to raise the production level up to 16,000 units as it does not provide any additional profit.

BUDGET AND BUDGETARY CONTROL

Working Notes 1. Here given, Production at 50% capacity = 10,000 units ∴ Production at 60% capacity = 60% ÷ 50% × 10,000 = 12,000 units, and production at 80% capacity = 80% ÷ 50% × 10,000 = 16,000 units 2. Variable Costs increase with the increase in output. 3. Fixed Costs do not increase with the increase in output. They remain same at different levels of output. 4. As per Marginal Costing Techniques, Contribution = Sales – Variable Cost

Problem 12 Delta Engineering Ltd produces a uniform type of product and has a manufacturing capacity of 3,000 units per week of 48 hours. From the cost records of the company, the following data are available relating to output and cost for three consecutive weeks: Weeks 1 2 3

At 1,800 units (Rs.) 13,500 13,500 ÷ 1,800 = 7.50

Here, it has been observed that direct materials cost per unit remains unchanged at different levels of production, but the total costs are different at different levels of production. ∴ Direct Materials Cost is definitely a Variable Cost ∴ Total Direct Materials Cost at 2,000 units of output = 2,000 units × Rs. 7.50 = Rs. 15,000 (Continued)

2. Direct Labour At 1,200 units (Rs.) 3,600 3,600 ÷ 1,200 = 3

Total Direct Labour Cost ∴ Direct Labour cost per unit

At 1,600 units (Rs.) 4,800 4,800 ÷ 1,600 = 3

At 1,800 units (Rs.) 5,400 5,400 ÷ 1,800 = 3

Here, it has been observed that Direct Labour Cost per unit remains unchanged at different levels of production, but the Total Costs are different at different levels of production. ∴ Direct Labour Cost is definitely a Variable Cost. ∴ Total Direct Labour Cost at 2,000 units of output = 2,000 units × Rs. 3 = Rs. 6,000 3. Overhead At 1,200 units (Rs.) 31,000 31,000 ÷ 1,200 = 25.83

Total Overhead Cost ∴ Overhead Cost per unit

At 1,600 units (Rs.) 33,000 33,000 ÷ 1,600 = 20.625

At 1,800 units (Rs.) 34,000 34,000 ÷ 1,800 =18.88

Here, it has been observed that neither the total overhead cost nor the per unit overhead cost remains unchanged at different levels of output. ∴ Overhead Cost is a Semi-Variable Cost.

At 1,600 units of output, the total overhead cost and, = Rs. 33,000 at 1,200 units of output, the total overhead cost. = Rs. 31,000 Increase in output = 400 units Increase in cost = Rs. 2,000

This amount of increase in cost is due to the variable portion of the expenses included in it. ∴ Variable Overhead Cost per unit = Rs. 2,000 ÷ 400 = Rs. 5 Now, at 1,200 units of output: Total Overhead Cost Variable Overhead Cost [1,200 units × Rs. 5] Fixed Overhead Cost ∴ At 2,000 units of output: Variable Overhead Cost [2,000 units × Rs. 5] Fixed Overhead Cost [same as at 1,200 units] Total Overhead Cost at 2,000 units of output

Rs. 31,000 Rs. 6,000 Rs. 25,000 Rs. 10,000 Rs. 25,000 Rs. 35,000

∴ Overhead Cost per unit at 2,000 units of output = Rs. 35,000 ÷ 2,000 units = Rs. 17.50

Working Notes 1. At the production level of 1,000 units, Total Direct Materials = Rs. 30,000 ∴ Direct Materials per unit = Rs. 30,000 ÷ 1,000 = Rs. 30 As Direct Material is a Variable Cost, At the production level of 1,500 units, Total Direct Materials = 1,500 units × Rs. 30 = Rs. 45,000, and at the 2,000 units level, Total Direct Materials = 2,000 units × Rs. 30 = Rs. 60,000 2. At the production level of 1,000 units, Total Direct Labour = Rs. 15,000 ∴ Direct Labour per unit = Rs. 15,000 ÷ 1,000 = Rs. 15 As Direct Labour is a Variable Cost, At the production level of 1,500 units, Total Direct Labour = 1,500 units × Rs. 15 = Rs. 22,500, and at the 2,000 units level, Total Direct Labour = 2,000 units × Rs. 15 = Rs. 30,000 3. At the production level of 1,000 units, Power = Rs. 10,000, which includes 20% fixed portion and balance 80% variable portion. Then, at the production level of 1,000 units, Fixed Power [20% of Rs. 10,000] Variable Power [80% of Rs. 10,000] Total Power

Rs. 2,000 8,000 10,000

∴ Variable Power per unit = Rs. 8,000 ÷ 1,000 = Rs. 8 Now, at the production level of 1,500 units, Variable Power [1,500 units × Rs. 8] Fixed Power [as it was at 1,000 units] Total Power at 1,500 units of production

Rs. 13,600 1,200 14,800

5. At the production level of 1,000 units, depreciation is Rs. 6,000, which includes 40% of variable portion and balance 60% of fixed portion. Fixed Depreciation [60% of Rs. 6,000] Variable Depreciation [40% of Rs. 6,000] Total Depreciation

Rs. 3,600 2,400 6,000

∴ Variable Depreciation per unit = Rs. 2,400 ÷ 1,000 = Rs. 2.40 Now, at the production level of 1,500 units, Variable Depreciation [1,500 units × Rs. 2.40] Fixed Depreciation [as it was at 1,000 units] Total Depreciation at 1,500 units of production

Rs. 3,600 3,600 7,200

Again, at the production level of 2,000 units, Variable Depreciation [2,000 units × Rs. 2.40] Fixed Depreciation [as it was at 1,000 units] Total Depreciation at 2,000 units of production

Rs. 4,800 3,600 8,400

6. At the production level of 1,000 units, Administrative Expenses is Rs. 12,000, which is 100% fixed. ∴ At the production level of 1,500 units, Administrative Expenses is Rs. 12,000, and at the production level of 2,000 units too, Administrative Expenses is Rs. 12,000 only.

Working Notes 1. Calculation of Indirect Materials at 50% and 70% Capacity Here, given indirect Materials at 60% capacity = Rs. 36,000 ∴ Indirect Materials at 50% capacity = 50% / 60% × 36,000 = Rs. 30,000, and Indirect Materials at 70% capacity = 70% / 60% × 36,000 = Rs. 42,000 2. Indirect Wages at 50% and 70% Capacity Here, given Indirect Wages at 60% capacity = Rs. 48,000 ∴ Indirect Wages at 50% capacity = 50% / 60% × 48,000 = Rs. 40,000, and Indirect Wages at 70% capacity = 70% / 60% × 48,000 = Rs. 56,000 3. Repairs and Maintenance at 50% and 70% Capacity Here, given repairs and maintenance at 60% capacity = Rs. 30,000, which includes 20% of variable portion. ∴ Fixed portion of this cost = 100 – 20 = 80% Here, at 60% Capacity, Variable Repair and Maintenance [20% of Rs. 30,000] Fixed Repairs and Maintenance [80% of Rs. 30,000] Total Repairs and Maintenance

Working Notes 1. As these are Fixed Expenses, they do not vary at different levels of production. 2. Semi-Variable Expenses remain unchanged at 60% capacity of production. But, Semi-Variable Expenses at 75% capacity = Semi-Variable Expenses at 50% capacity + 10%, and SemiVariable Expenses at 90% and 100% capacity = Semi-Variable Expenses at 50% capacity + 20%. 3. Variable Expenses vary with the change in the production levels. At 50% production capacity, Materials Cost = 21.70 (Rs. in lakhs) ∴ At 60% production capacity, Materials Cost = 60% ÷ 50% × 21.70 = 26.04 (Rs. in lakhs) ∴ At 75% production capacity, Materials Cost = 75% ÷ 50% × 21.70 = 32.55 (Rs. in lakhs) ∴ At 90% production capacity, Materials Cost = 90% ÷ 50% × 21.70 = 39.06 (Rs. in lakhs) ∴ At 100% production capacity, Materials Cost = 100% ÷ 50% × 21.70 = 43.40 (Rs. in lakhs) Again, at 50% production capacity, Labour Cost = 20.40 (Rs. in lakhs) ∴ At 60% production capacity, Labour Cost = 60% ÷ 50% × 20.40 = 24.48 (Rs. in lakhs) ∴ At 75% production capacity, Labour Cost = 75% ÷ 50% × 20.40 = 30.60 (Rs. in lakhs) ∴ At 90% production capacity, Labour Cost = 90% ÷ 50% × 20.40 = 36.72 (Rs. in lakhs) ∴ At 100% production capacity, Labour Cost =100% ÷ 50% × 20.40 = 40.80 (Rs. in lakhs) Again, at 50% production capacity, Other Expenses = 7.90 (Rs. in lakhs) ∴ At 60% production capacity, Other Expenses = 60% ÷ 50% × 7.90 = 9.48 (Rs. in lakhs) ∴ At 75% production capacity, Other Expenses = 75% ÷ 50% × 7.90 = 11.85 (Rs. in lakhs) ∴ At 90% production capacity, Other Expenses = 90% ÷ 50% × 7.90 = 14.22 (Rs. in lakhs) ∴ At 100% production capacity, Other Expenses = 100% ÷ 50% × 7.90 = 15.80 (Rs. in lakhs)

Working Notes 1. Indirect Materials Total Indirect Material Cost (Rs.) ∴ Indirect Material Cost per unit (Rs.)

At 1,20,000 units 2,64,000 2,64,000 ÷1,20,000 = Rs. 2.20

At 1,50,000 units 3,30,000 3,30,000 ÷ 1,50,000 = Rs. 2.20

Here, it has been observed that cost of indirect materials per unit remains unchanged at different levels of production, but total costs are different at different levels of production. ∴ Indirect Material Cost is definitely a variable expense ∴ Total Indirect Material Cost at 1,40,000 units of output = 1,40,000 units × Rs. 2.20 = Rs. 3,08,000 2. Indirect Labour Total Indirect Material Cost (Rs.) ∴ Indirect Material Cost per unit (Rs.)

At 1,20,000 units 1,50,000 1,50,000 ÷1,20,000 = Rs. 1.25

At 1,50,000 units 1,87,500 1,87,500 ÷1,50,000 = Rs. 1.25

Here, it has been observed that per unit indirect labour cost remains unchanged at different levels of output, but total costs are different at different levels of output. ∴ Indirect Labour Cost is a variable cost. ∴ Total Indirect Labour Cost at 1,40,000 units of output = 1,40,000 units × Rs. 1.25. = Rs. 1,75,000 3. Inspection Total Inspection Cost (Rs.) ∴ Inspection Cost per unit (Re.)

At 1,20,000 units 90,000 90,000 ÷1,20,000 = 0.75

At 1,50,000 units 1,12,500 1,12,500 ÷1,50,000 = 0.75

Here, it has been observed that per-unit Inspection Cost remains unchanged at different levels of output, but Total costs are different at different levels of output. ∴ Inspection Cost is a Variable Cost. ∴ Total Inspection Cost at 1,40,000 units of output = 1,40,000 units × Re. 0.75 = Rs. 1,05,000 (Continued)

4. Maintenance At 1,20,000 units 84,000 84,000 ÷1,20,000 = 0.70

Total Maintenance Cost (Rs.) ∴ Maintenance Cost per unit (Rs.)

At 1,50,000 units 1,02,000 1,02,000 ÷1,50,000 = 0.68

Here, it has been observed that neither the total maintenance cost nor the per unit maintenance cost remain unchanged at different levels of output. ∴ Maintenance Cost is a Semi-Variable Cost. At 1,50,000 units of output, Total Maintenance Cost At 1,20,000 units of output, Total Maintenance Cost Increase in Cost Increase in output = 30,000 units

Rs. 1,02,000 84,000 18,000

This amount of increase in cost is due to the variable portion of the expenses included in it. ∴ Variable Maintenance Cost per unit = Rs. 80,000 ÷ 30,000 = Re. 0.60 Now, at 1,20,000 units of output, Rs. 84,000 72,000 12,000

Total Maintenance Cost Variable Maintenance Cost [1,20,000 units × Re. 0.60] Fixed Maintenance Cost

∴ At 1,40,000 units of output, Rs. 84,000 12,000 96,000

Variable Maintenance Cost [1,40,000 units × Re. 0.60] Fixed Maintenance Cost [same as at 1,20,000 units] Total Maintenance Cost at 1,40,000 units of output

∴ Maintenance Cost per unit at 1,40,000 units of output = Rs. 96,000 ÷ 1,40,000 units = Re. 0.69 5. Supervision At 1,20,000 units At 1,50,000 units (Rs.) (Rs.) 1,98,000 2,34,000 1,98,000 ÷1,20,000 = 1.65 2,34,000 ÷1,50,000 = 1.56

Total Supervision Cost ∴ Supervision Cost per unit

Here, it has been observed that neither the total supervision cost nor the per unit supervision cost remain unchanged at different levels of output. ∴ Supervision Cost is a Semi-Variable Cost. At 1,50,000 units of output, Total Supervision Cost At 1,20,000 units of output, Total Supervision Cost Increase in output = 30,000 units

Increase in cost

Rs. 2,34,000 1,98,000 36,000

∴ Variable Supervision Cost per unit = Rs. 36,000 ÷ 30,000 units = Rs. 1.20 Now, at 1,50,000 units of output, Total Supervision Cost Variable Supervision Cost [1,50,000 units × Rs. 1.20] Fixed Supervision Cost

Rs. 2,34,000 1,80,000 54,000

∴ At 1,40,000 units of output, Variable Supervision Cost [1,40,000 units × Rs. 1.20] Fixed Supervision Cost [same as at 1,50,000 units] Total Supervision Cost at 1,40,000 units

Receipts from Cash Sales In April = (20% of Rs. 80,000) – {2% of (20% of Rs. 80,000)} = Rs. 15,680 In May = (20% of Rs. 1,16,000) – {2% of (20% of Rs 1,16,000)} = Rs. 22,736 In June = (20% of Rs. 88,000) – {2% of (20% of Rs. 88,000)} = Rs. 17,248 2. Collection from Debtors 20% of the Total Sales for each month represent Cash Sales. ∴ Credit Sales = 80% of the Total Sales Credit Sales are to be realized after 2 months. ∴ Collection from Debtors in April = 80% of Total Sales in February = 80% of Rs. 1,20,000 = Rs. 96,000 Collection from Debtors in May = 80% of Total Sales in March = 80% of Rs. 1,30,000 = Rs. 1,04,000 Collection from Debtors in June = 80% of Total Sales in April = 80% of Rs. 80,000 = Rs. 64,000 3. Payment to Creditors for Goods Credit allowed by the creditors for Goods is 1 month. ∴ Payment to Creditors in April = Payment for Purchases in March = Rs. 1,00,000 Payment to Creditors in May = Payment for Purchases in April = Rs. 1,04,000 Payment to Creditors in June = Payment for Purchases in May = Rs. 1,06,000 4. Payment of Wages 25% of the Wages payable for each month to be paid in the subsequent month. ∴ Wages paid in each month = 25% of Wages payable for the previous month + 75% of the Wages payable for the current month.

2. Collection from Debtors Cash Sales for each month = 10% of Total Sales for that month ∴ Credit Sales for each month = 90% of Total Sales for that month 50% of the Credit Sales for each month is realized in the subsequent month and the Balance 50% is realized next to the subsequent month. Collection from Debtors in April: 50% of (90% of Total Sales of February), i.e., [50% of (90% of Rs. 14,000)] 50% of (90% of Total Sales of March), i.e., [50% of (90% of Rs. 15,000)] Total collection from Debtors in April Again, Collection from Debtors in May: 50% of (90% of Total Sales of March), i.e., [50% of (90% of Rs. 15,000)] 50% of (90% of Total Sales of April), i.e., [50% of (90% of Rs. 16,000)] Total collection from Debtors in May Again, Collection from Debtors in June: 50% of (90% of Total Sales of April), i.e., [50% of (90% of Rs. 16,000)] 50% of (90% of Total Sales of May), i.e., [50% of (90% of Rs. 17,000)] Total collection from Debtors in June

3. Payment to Creditors for Goods Credit allowed by the Creditors is 2 months. Therefore, Creditors are to be paid off after 2 months, immediately succeeding the month of Purchase. ∴ Payment to Creditors in April = Purchase of Materials in the month of February = Rs. 9,600 Payment to Creditors in May = Purchase of Materials in the month of March = Rs. 9,000 Payment to Creditors in June = Purchase of Materials in the month of April = Rs. 9,200 4. Payment of Wages A lag in the payment of Wages is 1/4 month. Again, 1 month = 4 weeks. Therefore, 1/4 month = 1 week. Hence, the lag in payment of Wages = 1 week, that is, the wages for the first week of a month is paid in the second week of that month, wages for the second week is paid in the third week of that month, wages for the third week is paid in the fourth week of that month and wages for the fourth week is paid in the first week of the subsequent month. ∴ Payment of wages for each month = 1/4th of the wages for the previous month + 3/4th of the wages for the current month Consequently, payment of wages in April = 1/4 of wages for March + 3/4 of wages in April = 1/4 of Rs. 3,000 + 3/4 of Rs. 3,200 = Rs. 3,150 Payment of wages in May = 1/4 of wages for April + 3/4 of wages for May = 1/4 of Rs. 3,200 + 3/4 of Rs. 3,600 = Rs. 3,500 Payment of wages in June = 1/4 of wages for May + 3/4 of wages for June = 1/4 of Rs. 3,600 + 3/4 of Rs. 4,000 = Rs. 3,900 5. Payment of Overheads Lag in the payment of overheads is 1/2 month, that is, the overheads for the first half of a month is paid during the second half of that month and the overheads for the second half of a month is paid during the first half of the next month. ∴ Payment of Overheads for each month =1/2 of the overheads for the previous month + 1/2 of the overheads for the current month ∴ Payment of Overheads in April = 1/2 of overheads for March + 1/2 of overheads for April = 1/2 of Rs. 1,900 + 1/2 of Rs. 2,000 = Rs. 1,950 Payment of Overheads in May = 1/2 of overheads for April + 1/2 of overheads for May = 1/2 of Rs. 2,000 + 1/2 of Rs. 2,200 = Rs. 2,100 Payment of Overheads in June = 1/2 of overheads for May + 1/2 of overheads for June = 1/2 of Rs. 2,200 + 1/2 of Rs. 2,300 = Rs. 2,250 6. Closing Cash and Bank Balance at the end of April represent the Opening Cash and Bank Balance at the beginning of May. Similarly, the Closing Cash and Bank Balance at the end of May represent the cash and balance at the beginning of June.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Problem 23 From the following particulars, prepare the monthly Cash Budget of the Sunclear Ltd for October, November and December of 1996: Month (1996) July August September October November December

Purchases Rs. 40,000 60,000 50,000 70,000 80,000 60,000

Expenses Rs. 10,000 12,000 12,500 11,600 11,800 12,300

It is expected that 50% of sales will be in cash and 25% of the purchases can be made on credit. Debtors are allowed a 2-months credit, but will receive a cash discount of 5% if they will pay off their dues within the month next to the month of sale. About 80% of the Debtors normally clear their dues at the end of that period to avail the cash discount. But the remaining 20% of the Debtors pay on the due date only. About 4/5th of the credit purchase is paid after 1 month of that purchase and next to that month, the balance 1/5th is paid. Wages are paid within fifth of the following month. Expenses include Selling and Distribution Expenses which are 10% of the sales. Any deficiency in cash at the end of a month will be met by taking a short-term loan for 2 months from the bank. At the end of September 1996, the Sunclear Ltd had Rs. 40,000 cash in hand. [B.Com.

BUDGET AND BUDGETARY CONTROL

2. Collection from Debtors Cash Sales for each month = 50% of Total Sales for that month ∴ Credit Sales for each month = Remaining 50% of Total Sales for that month Generally, 2 months’ Credit is allowed to the Debtors. But if they pay off their dues within the next month to the month of sale, a discount of 5% is offered. Here, out of the Total Debtors of each month, 80% of them have cleared their dues in the next month to avail a 5% discount offer and the remaining 20% of the debtors pay their dues after 2 months only. ∴ Collection from Debtors in October: 20% of Credit Sales in August, i.e., {20% of (50% of Rs. 80,000)} 80% of Credit Sales in September less 5% discount i.e., [{80% of (50% of Rs. 70,000)} – 5%] ∴ Collection from Debtors in November: 20% of Credit Sales in September, i.e., {20% of (50% of Rs. 70,000)} 80% of Credit Sales in October less 5% discount, i.e., [{80% of (50% of Rs. 90,000)} – 5%] ∴ Collection from Debtors in December: 20% of Credit Sales in October, i.e., 20% of (50% of Rs. 90,000) 80% of Credit Sales in November less 5% discount, i.e., [{80% of (50% of Rs. 1,00,000)} – 5%]

Again, these expenses include both selling and distribution expenses also. Therefore, no separate payment is required for selling and distribution expenses. 7. Cash Balance at the end of October = Opening Cash Balance of November And, Cash Balance at the end of November = Cash Balance at the beginning of December. On the other hand, as there is no deficit in cash in every month, the requirement of raising a short-term loan is not required.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Limitations of Budgetary Control are: (a) Budget Plans are based on estimates which may not be accurate in all cases; (b) It plays a limited role in the process of controlling various business activities; (c) Budgetary Control system introduced in an organization may be resisted by some employees who are not as much efficient as others; and (d) Introduction of Budgetary Control system in an organization is an expensive programme. Budget is a quantitative plan of action for a future period, whereas Budgetary Control is a system of controlling costs and performances of various business activities through preparation of Budget, assigning responsibilities, evaluation of actual performances by comparing the actual results with the Budgeted data and taking remedial measures in case of any adverse deviation observed. Distinction between Standard Costing and Budgetary Control are as follows: (a) Standard Costing is based on technical assessment, whereas Budgetary Control is based on past performance adjusted with future trend; (b) Standard Costing is the method of preparation of Standard Cost and application of those for measuring the efficiency of the Actual Cost, whereas Budgetary Control is the method of Forecasting Cost by preparation of a Budget prior to a definite period to attain the given objectives; (c) Standard Cost is a projection of Cost Accounts, whereas Budget is a projection of Financial Accounts; and (d) Standard Costing is mainly concerned with the ascertainment and control of costs, whereas Budgetary Control is mainly concerned with the profitability and financial position of a concern. Zero-based Budgeting (ZBB) is an alternative Budgeting system that starts with the zero base. It is a newly invented Budget technique where executives are required to start at the Zero-Budget Level every year and justify all the costs of the existing function in comparison with all the present and future functions. Budget is usually classified into many parts and sub-parts on the basis of its nature of requirement to the organization. Classification or types of Budget are: (a) Classification on the basis of period; (b) Classification on the basis of production flexibility; and (c) Classification on the basis of function or coverage.

The company estimates its sales for the next quarter to range between 5,500 units and 6,500 units, the most likely volume being 6,000 units. The manufacturing programme will match with the sales quantity such that no increase in the inventory of finished goods is contemplated in the next quarter. The following price and cost changes will, however, apply to the next quarter. The price of direct material B will increase by 10%. There will be no change in the price of direct material A. The wage rates will go up by 8%. If the production volume increases beyond 5,500 units, the overtime premium of 50% is payable on the increased volume due to the overtime working to be done by the variable labour complement.  The fixed factory and selling expenses will increase by 20% and 25%, respectively.  A discount in the Selling Price of 2% is allowed on all sales made at 6,500 units level of output. The Selling Price, however, will remain unaltered, if the volume of output is below 6,500 units. While operating at a volume of output of 6,500 units in the next quarter, the company intends to quote for an additional volume of 2,000 units to be supplied to a government department for its captive consumption. The working capital requirement of this order is estimated at 80% of the sales value of the government order. The company desires a return of 20% on the capital employed in respect of this order.  

Required: i. Prepare a flexible Budget for the next quarter at 5,500, 6,000 and 6,500 unit levels and determine the profit at the respective volumes. ii. Calculate the lowest price per unit to be quoted in respect of the government order for 2,000 units. [C.A. (Inter)—May 2003] Ans.: (i) Total Cost (Rs.) Profit/Loss (ii) Lowest price to be quoted is Rs. 91 per unit (approx.)

Standard Costing and Variance Analysis

8

LEARNING OBJECTIVES On completion of the study of the chapter, you should be able to understand: What is Standard Cost? What is Standard Costing? Features, advantages and limitations of Standard Costing. Preliminary steps for establishing Standard Costing System. Types of standards. Distinction between Standard Cost, Estimated Cost and Actual/Historical Cost. Distinction between Standard Costing and Budgetary Control. Meaning of Variance and Variance Analysis. Classification of Variances.

8.1 WHAT IS STANDARD COST? The meaning of the term ‘Standard Cost’ is predetermined cost scientifically computed for measuring the efficiency of the actual performance of an entity. According to CIMA, London, Standard Cost is ‘a predetermined calculation of how much costs should be under specified working conditions.’ Therefore, Standard Cost is the predetermined cost which should have been under specified operating conditions. It is the yardstick of measuring the efficiency of the actual cost incurred. Before incurring the actual cost of production, an enterprise determines the Standard Cost of each function production on the basis of its working conditions. After the production, the concern judges the efficiency of its actual costs of production with the predetermined Standard Cost and takes appropriate remedial measures after identifying the deviation from the Standard Cost, if any. Standard Cost is ideal in nature and related to future. 8.2 WHAT IS STANDARD COSTING? According to CIMA, London, Standard Costing is ‘the preparation and the use of standard costs, their comparison with actual costs and analysis of variances to their causes and points of incidence.’ Therefore, Standard Costing is the method of setting up of standard costs and applying them to measure the deviations from the actual costs and analysing the causes of such deviation with a view to maximize the efficiency of the production functions. It is a technique of costing which uses standards for costs and revenues for the purpose of control through Variance Analysis. Standard Costing is not a distinct system of accounting, but is only a technique which can be applied to all types of costing like job costing or process costing. 8.2.1 Features of Standard Costing i. Predetermination of appropriate standards for each element of cost and sales. ii. Comparison of actual performance with the standards and any deviation of actual performance from the standard is being identified as a Variance.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

iii. Analysis of variances in order to assess the reasons of variances. iv. Reporting to the management for taking corrective action for any off-standard variance. 8.3 PRELIMINARY STEPS FOR ESTABLISHING STANDARD COSTING SYSTEM For establishing a Standard Costing System in an organization, the following preliminary steps are to be adopted: i. Establishment of Cost Centres: Establishment of cost centres with clearly defined areas of responsibility is the first step for establishing a Standard Costing System. ii. Classification of Accounts: Classification of accounts for the purpose of identifying each expense and revenue by function and deciding the responsibility of such expenses and revenues. iii. Types of Standard: Standards may be set out as per the situation and according to the suitability of their achievement. In this context, generally, five types of standard are available, namely, Basic Standard, Current Standard, Ideal Standard, Normal Standard and Expected/Practical Standard. 8.4 TYPES OF STANDARDS Standard may be classified into the following five types: i. Basic Standard: Basic standard is a standard which is established for use over a long period of time. This type of standard remains constant over a long period of time. In this type of standard, a base year is chosen for comparison purpose. ii. Current Standard: Current standard is established for a short period and for current condition. iii. Ideal Standard: Ideal standard is a standard which may be attained under most favourable conditions. This standard is based on the best possible operating conditions. iv. Normal Standard: Normal standard is a standard which can be achieved under normal operating conditions. This standard is difficult to set as it requires a significant degree of forecasting. v. Expected or Practical Standard: Expected or practical standard is a standard which is based on the expected operating performance after making a reasonable allowance for unavoidable losses. This is an attainable and realistic standard. 8.5 DISTINCTION BETWEEN STANDARD COST, ESTIMATED COST AND ACTUAL/HISTORICAL COST Standard Cost refers to the predetermined cost that should have been under the specified operating conditions of an enterprise. Standard Cost is the predetermined cost scientifically calculated on the basis of the actual output of the enterprise. It is ideal in nature and related to future. Estimated Costs are the future costs assumed at present. It is also a predetermined cost, but computed with the help of historic data. It is probable in nature and related to future. Actual or Historical Costs are the costs actually incurred in the past and ascertained after they have been incurred. It is actual in nature and related to past. 8.6 ADVANTAGES OF STANDARD COSTING Standard Costing System has the following advantages: i. It facilitates an effective cost control and provides necessary information for cost control. ii. It identifies the areas of strength and weakness of production functions. iii. It helps in measuring the efficiency of the actual performance. iv. It helps in formulation of future production and pricing policies. v. It is useful for budgeting and planning. vi. It provides useful information for price quotation of the products.

vii. It increases the cost consciousness among the employees, as through Variance Analysis—the responsibility for favourable or unfavourable performance is assigned to them. viii. It increases the efficiency and productivity of workers through motivation for achieving a better performance. ix. It facilitates the use of Management by Exception (MBE) principle as the management needs to concentrate on the area required for corrective action alone. x. It simplifies the procedure of valuation of inventory as the inventory is valued at Standard Cost under Standard Costing System. 8.7 LIMITATIONS OF STANDARD COSTING In spite of having immense important advantages, yet, Standard Costing System suffers from the following limitations: i. Standard Costing System is not effective for the organizations which deal with non-standardized products and jobs which change according to the customer’s specification. ii. Sometimes, it becomes difficult, in practise, to establish standards as it needs a high degree of technical skill. iii. If standards are inaccurately established, wrong and misleading conclusions may be drawn. iv. Installation of Standard Costing System in an organization is a very costly one and accordingly, small business organizations cannot afford to install this system. v. Standard Costing is a tool of management and is not a substitute of management. vi. Organizations, where technological changes take place at frequent intervals, find difficulty to adopt this system. vii. Standards have to be revised on regular intervals owing to the changing conditions, which is an expensive and difficult task for the organization. viii. Non-achievement of unrealistic standards may lead to an adverse effect on the morale and motivation of the employee. 8.8 COMPARISON BETWEEN STANDARD COSTING AND BUDGETARY CONTROL Standard Costing and Budgetary Control have the common objective of cost control by establishing the predetermined costs. Although both of these follow certain common basic principles, such as establishment of predetermined targets of performance, measurement of actual performance, comparison of actual performance with the predetermined performance, analysis of the differences between the predetermined and actual performance, adoption of remedial measures—wherever necessary, and so on, there are a number of fundamental differences between Standard Costing and Budgetary Control. These differences are as follows: Standard Costing 1. Standard Costing is based on technical assessment. 2. It is the method of preparation of Standard Cost and application of those for measuring the efficiency of the actual cost. 3. It is a projection of cost accounts. 4. It is mainly concerned with the ascertainment and control of costs. 5. Standard is set mainly in respect of manufacturing functions such as different elements of cost and sales.

Budgetary Control 1. Budgetary Control is based on the past performance adjusted with the future trend. 2. It is the method of forecasting cost by preparation of budget prior to a definite period to attain the given objectives. 3. It is a projection of financial accounts. 4. It is mainly concerned with the profitability and financial position of a concern. 5. Budget is prepared in respect of different functions of the business such as purchase, wages, production and sales. (Continued)

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Standard Costing 6. Standard Costing sets the standard that should be maintained in the actual performance. 7. It cannot be applied without budget. 8. It is more an intensive technique of controlling cost. 9. It cannot be applied in part. 10. Under Standard Costing, variances are revealed through different accounts.

Budgetary Control 6. Budget sets up the maximum limits of expenses, beyond which the actual expenses should not normally exceed. 7. It can be operated without standard. 8. It is more an extensive approach which covers all the business functions of a concern. 9. It can be applied in part. 10. In Budgetary Control, variances are used as a statistical information only.

8.9 ANALYSIS OF VARIANCE The deviation of actual performance from the standard set out is called ‘variance.’ As per the official terminology of CIMA, London, variance is ‘the difference between planned, budgeted or Standard Cost and Actual Cost.’ Variance Analysis is the process of analysing the reasons behind the variances occurred by sub-dividing them in such a manner so that the management can be reported for adopting remedial measures for any off-standard performance. According to CIMA, London, Variance Analysis is ‘the process of computing the amount of variance and isolating the cause of variance between actual and standard.’ Therefore, Variance Analysis is a process of calculating the total variance by comparing the actual performance with the standard set out and all its sub-variances that may be practised for identifying the causes for such variance and reporting to the management for taking the corrective action for any off-standard performance of the manufacturing function. Hence, Variance Analysis involves three functional actions: (i) Ascertainment of individual variances; (ii) Determination of causes of variance; and (iii) Reporting to the management for taking corrective action for any off-standard performance. 8.9.1 Direction of Variances In case of cost variances, the excess of Standard Cost over the actual cost represents the positive or favourable variance, which indicates that the actual cost is less than the Standard Cost. On the other hand, the excess of actual cost over the Standard Cost represents the negative or unfavourable or adverse variance, which indicates that the actual cost is more than the Standard Cost. In case of sales variances, the excess of actual sales over budgeted sales represents the positive or favourable variance, which indicates that the actual sales is more than the budgeted sales. On the other hand, the excess of budgeted sales over the actual sales represents the negative or unfavourable or adverse variance, which indicates that actual sales is lesser than the budgeted sales. 8.9.2 Nature of Variances Nature of variances may be of two types: (a) Controllable Variances; and (ii) Uncontrollable Variances. Controllable variances are those which arise due to controllable causes, that is, which can be controlled by taking an appropriate corrective action, for example, use of defective or inferior quality of materials, engagement of inefficient workers and so on. Uncontrollable variances are those which arise due to uncontrollable causes, that is, on which control can be exercised, for example, change in the market price of materials, change in the market rate of labour and so on. 8.9.3 Purposes of Variance Analysis Variance Analysis serves the following purposes: i. To assess the overall, departmental and individual efficiency of the concern. ii. To act as an instrument of cost control and cost reduction. iii. To enable the management to utilize men, materials and machines effectively. iv. To provide the basis for framing future plans of action and formulating managerial policies.

8.10 CLASSIFICATION OF VARIANCES Broadly, variances are classified into two parts—Cost Variances and Sales Variances. Again, cost variances are classified into four parts for each of the cost element, such as Material Cost Variances, Labour Cost Variances, Variable Overhead Variances and Fixed Overhead Variances. Classification of variances is explained in a chart format in Figure 8.1. Variance

i. Material Cost Variance (MCV): It is the difference between the standard material cost for the actual output and actual material cost for the actual output. Material Cost Variance (MCV) = Standard materials cost for the actual output –Actual materials cost for the actual output = SP × SQ × AO − AP × AQ × AO Where, SP = Standard price of materials per unit AP = Actual price of materials per unit SQ = Standard quantity of materials required to produce one unit of output AQ = Actual quantity of materials used to produce one unit of output AO = Actual output ii. Material Price Variance (MPV): It is the difference between the Standard Cost of actual quantity of materials used for the actual output and actual cost of actual quantity of materials used for the actual output.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Material Price Variance (MPV) = Standard Cost of actual quantity of material used for the actual output − Actual cost of actual quantity of materials used for the actual output = SP × AQ × AO − AP × AQ × AO = (SP − AP) AQ × AO iii. Material Usage/Quantity Variance (MUV/MQV): It is the difference between the Standard Cost of standard quantity of material required for the actual output and Standard Cost of actual quantity of material used for the actual output. Material Usage/Quantity Variance (MUV/MQV) = Standard Cost of standard quantity of material required for the actual output − Standard Cost of actual quantity of materials used for the actual output = SP × SQ × AO − SP × AQ × AO = SP [(SQ × AO) − (AQ × AO)] iv. Material Mix Variance (MMV): This variance is applied where more than one type of material is used to produce the output. It is the difference between the Standard Cost of standard mix/proportion of a material required in the actual input of total materials and Standard Cost of actual mix/proportion of that material used in the actual input of total materials. Material Mix Variance (MMV) = Standard mix/proportion of a material required in the actual input of total materials − Standard Cost of actual mix/proportion of that material used in the actual input of total materials = SP [Standard mix of a material in the actual input − Actual mix of that material in the actual input] v. Material Yield Variance (MYV): This variance is also applied where more than one type of material is used to produce the output. It is the difference between the Standard Cost of the actual yield/output for the actual input of materials and Standard Cost of the standard yield/output for the actual input of materials. Material Yield Variance (MYV) = Standard Cost of actual yield/output for the actual input of materials − Standard Cost of standard yield/output for the actual input of materials = Standard yield rate [Actual yield for actual input − Standard yield for actual input] Tutorial Notes 1. ‘SQ’ alone represents ‘Standard quantity of materials required to produce one unit of output,’ whereas ‘SQ × AO’ refers to ‘Standard quantity of materials required to produce the total actual output.’ Similarly, ‘AQ’ alone represents ‘Actual quantity of materials used to produce one unit of output,’ whereas ‘AQ × AO’ refers to ‘Actual quantity of materials used to produce total actual output.’ 2. ‘Mix’ refers to ‘proportion of materials,’ whereas ‘Yield’ refers to ‘output from those materials.’ 3. Where one type of material is used to produce output, the question of computation of MMV and MYV does not arise at all, that is, in such a case, MCV, MPV and MUV alone to be computed. 4. Where more than one type of material is used to produce a single output, MMV and MYV are to be computed (along with MCV, MPV and MUV). 5. Standard Yield Rate refers to Standard Output Rate. 6. Standard Yield Rate =

Standard Material Cost of standard output Standard output

7. Reconciliation or Test for Material Variances; MCV = MPV + MUV MUV = MMV + MYV

Classification of Labour Variance

i. Labour Cost Variance (LCV): It is the difference between the standard labour cost for the actual output and actual labour cost for the actual output. Labour Cost Variance (LCV) = Standard labour cost for the actual output − Actual labour cost for the actual output = SR × SH × AO − AR × AH × AO Where, SR = Standard labour rate per hour AR = Actual labour rate per hour SH = Standard hours required to produce one unit of output AH = Actual hours taken to produce one unit of output AO = Actual output SH × AO = Total standard hours required to produce the total actual output AH × AO = Total actual hours taken to produce the total actual output (including abnormal idle hours) ii. Labour Rate/Price Variance (LRV/LPV): It is the difference between the Standard Cost of actual labour hours taken for the actual output and actual cost of actual labour hours taken for the actual output. Material Price Variance (MPV) = Standard Cost of actual labour hours taken for the actual output − Actual cost of actual labour hours taken for the actual output = SR × AH × AO − AR × AH × AO = (SR – AR) AH × AO iii. Labour Idle Time Variance (LITV): It represents the standard labour cost for the time during which no work has been done, but workers are duly paid for this period. It happens due to some abnormal circumstances (i.e., abnormal idle time) like strikes, lock-out, long period of power failure, machine break-down and so on. LITV will always be negative or adverse. Labour Idle Time Variance (LITV) = SR × Abnormal idle hours iv. Labour Efficiency Variance (LEV): It is the difference between the standard labour cost of standard hours for the actual output and standard labour cost of effective actual hours taken by the worker for producing the actual output. Here, ‘effective actual hours taken for the actual output’ refers to the total actual hours taken for the actual output less abnormal idle hours. Labour Efficiency Variance (LEV) = Standard labour cost of standard hours for the actual output − Standard labour cost of effective actual hours taken for the actual output = SR × SH × AO − SR × Effective AH × AO = SR [SH × AO − Effective AH × AO]

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

v. Labour Mix Variance (LMV): This variance is applied where workers of different efficiency levels are engaged to produce the output. It is the difference between the standard labour cost of actual hours for the actual output allocated between the different classes of workers on the basis of standard proportion and standard labour cost of effective actual hours taken by the worker for producing the actual output. This standard labour cost of actual hours for the actual output allocated between the different classes of workers on the basis of standard proportion is called ‘revised standard hours’ (RSH). RSH = Total actual hours in standard ratio Standard hours required for a particular class of labour = Total actual hours taken × Total standard hours required for all classes of labour Labour Mix Variance (LMV) = SR × RSH − SR × Effective AH × AO = SR [RSH – Effective AH × AO] vi. Labour Yield Variance (LYV): This variance is also applied where workers of different efficiency levels are engaged to produce the output. It is the difference between the standard labour cost of standard hours for the actual output and standard labour cost of actual hours for the actual output allocated between the different classes of workers on the basis of standard proportion (i.e., RSH). Labour Yield Variance (LYV) = SR × SH × AO − SR × RSH = SR [SH × AO – RSH] Tutorial Notes 1. Effective AH × AO = Effective actual hours taken to produce the total actual output (excluding abnormal idle hours), i.e., [(AH × AO) – Abnormal idle hours] RSH = Total actual hours in standard ratio = Total actual hours taken ×

Standard hours required for a particular class of labour Total standard hours required for all classes of labour

2. While calculating LEV and LMV, Effective (AH × AO) is to be taken, i.e., Total actual hours taken for the total actual output excluding abnormal idle hours, i.e., (AH × AO) – Abnormal idle hours. 3. Where workers having the same efficiency are engaged in production, only LCV, LRV, LITV and LEV are to be computed, i.e., LMV and LYV need not be computed. Where workers having different efficiency levels are engaged in the production process, LMV and LYV are also to be computed along with LCV, LRV, LITV and LEV. 4. LITV will always be negative or adverse. 5. Reconciliation or Test for Labour Variances: LCV = LRV + LITV + LEV LEV = LMV + LYV

Due to a shortage of Material B, it was decided to reduce the consumption of B by 5% and increase that of A by 10%. [B.Com. (Hons), Calcutta University—2007] Solution Revised standard mix of materials: Material A: 100 units + 10% of 100 units Material B: 200 units – 5% of 200 units Material C:

= 110 units = 190 units = 300 units

In such a case, given information may be rearranged as follows: Standard Material A Material B Material C

Qty (units) 110 190 300 600

Here, Actual Input is given (2,200 kg + 800 kg) = 3,000 kg. It is assumed that Standard input = Actual Input = 3,000 kg i. Material Cost Variance (MCV) = Standard Cost of material for actual output – Actual cost of material for actual output = (Rs. 12,000 × 2,850 ÷ 2,700) – Rs. 12,500 = Rs. 167 (F) ii. Material Price Variance (MPV) = (SP – AP) AQ × AO Material A = (2 – 2.1136) × 2,200 = Rs. 250 (A) Material B = (10 – 9.8125) × 800 = Rs. 150 (F) Rs. 100 (A) iii. Material Usage Variance (MUV) = SP [SQ × AO – AQ × AO] Material A = 2 [(2,250 × 2,850 ÷ 2,700) − 2,200] = Rs. 350 (F) Material B = 10 [(2,250 × 2,850 ÷ 2,700) − 800] = Rs. 83 (A) Rs. 267 (F) Test MCV = MPV + MUV Here, Rs. 167 (F) = Rs. 100 (A) + Rs. 267 (F) = Rs. 167 (F), checked iv. Material-Mix Variance (MMV) = SP [Standard mix of material for actual input – Actual mix of material for actual input] Material A = 2 [(2,250 × 3,000 ÷ 3,000) − 2,200] = Rs. 100 (F) Material B = 10 [(750 × 3,000 ÷ 3,000) − 800] = Rs. 500 (A) Rs. 400 (A) v. Material Yield Variance (MYV) = Standard yield rate [Actual yield for actual input – Standard yield for actual input] = (Rs. 12,000 ÷ 2,700 kg) [2,850 − (2,700 ÷ 3,000 × 3,000)] = 4.4444 [2,850 – 2,700] = Rs. 667 (F) Test MUV = MMV + MYV Here, Rs. 267 (F) = Rs. 400 (A) + Rs. 667 (F) = Rs. 267 (F), checked

Problem 13 The standard mixture of Material X and Material Y for the production of Product Z is as follows: Material X: 40% @ Rs. 400 per kg. Material Y: 60% @ Rs. 600 per kg. A standard loss of 10% is normally anticipated in production. The following actual data are available for the month of January, 2010: 180 kg of Material X have been used @ Rs. 360 per kg. 220 kg of Material Y have been used @ Rs. 680 per kg. The actual production of Product Z during January 2010 was 369 kg. Calculate the Material Variances. Solution Here,

Actual production during the month = 369 kg. Standard loss = 10% of the input. Standard input for actual production = 100 ÷ 90 × 369 kg = 410 kg.

Working Notes 1. Here, given: Standard labour hours required for each unit of output (i.e., SH) = 1.50 hrs Standard labour rate per hour (i.e., SR) = Rs. 2 Actual output (i.e., AO) = 4,000 units ∴ Standard labour cost for actual output = SR × SH × AO = 2 × 1.50 × 4,000 = Rs. 12,000 2. Again, given: Actual labour cost for actual output of 4,000 units = AR × AH × AO = Rs. 19,800 3. Actual hours taken for actual output of 4,000 units (i.e., AH × AO) = 9,000 hrs Again, Actual labour cost for actual output of 4,000 units (i.e., AR × AH × AO) = Rs. 19,800 ∴ Actual labour rate per hour (i.e., AR) = Rs. 19,800 ÷ 9,000 = Rs. 2.20 4. Standard hours required for the actual output of 4,000 units = SH × AO = 1.50 hrs × 4,000 = 6,000 hrs 5. Actual hours taken for actual output of 4,000 units (i.e., AH × AO) = 9,000 hrs This 9,000 hrs includes 200 idle hours. For ascertaining LEV, effective actual hours to be taken. ∴ For LEV, Effective AH × AO = 9,000 – 200 = 8,800 hrs

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Problem 23 From the following information, calculate the LMV: Standard Mix 100 skilled workers @ Rs. 300 per month 200 semi-skilled workers @ Rs. 200 per month

Actual Mix 110 skilled workers @ Rs. 350 per month 340 semi-skilled workers @ Rs. 225 per month

Due to a shortage of skilled workers, it was decided to reduce the number of skilled workers by 10% and increase that of semi-skilled workers by 5%.

Solution New standard Mix of Labour: Skilled Workers = 100 – 10% of 100 = 90 Semi-skilled Workers = 200 + 5% of 200 = 210 Under such a circumstance, the given information may be rearranged as follows: Skilled Workers Semi-skilled Workers

Standard 90 workers @ Rs. 300 p.m. = Rs. 27,000 210 workers @ Rs. 200 p.m. = Rs. 42,000 300

Actual 110 workers @ Rs. 350 p.m. = Rs. 38,500 340 workers @ Rs. 225 p.m. = Rs. 76,500 450

∴ Labour Mix Variance (LMV) = SR [Revised Standard Mix – Actual Mix ] Skilled Workers = Rs. 300 [(450 × 90 ÷ 300) − 110] = Rs. 7,500 (F) Semi-skilled Worker = Rs. 200 [(450 × 210 ÷ 300) − 340]= Rs. 5,000 (A) LMV = Rs. 2,500 (F) Note Revised Standard Mix = Total Actual Mix in Standard Ratio

Problem 24 Gajna Ltd operates Standard Costing and Budgetary Control system. The budgeted labour mix for 10,000 units of output is as follows: Skilled labour: 10,000 labour hours @ Rs. 2.50 per hr Unskilled labour: 10,000 labour hours @ Rs. 1.50 per hr During April 2010, a shortage of skilled labour is expected. Accordingly, the budgeted labour mix for the production of 10,000 units of output during April 2010 is revised as follows: 20% less employment of skilled labour than the original budget. 20% more employment of unskilled labour than the original budget. The actual results for April 2010 showed the following: Actual production: 12,000 units. Actual labour mix: Skilled labour − 9,200 hrs @ Rs. 2.80 per hr Unskilled labour − 15,800 hrs @ Rs. 1.30 per hr During April 2010, idle time for unskilled workers accounted for 200 hours due to power failure and machine breakdown. Calculate the Labour Variances.

Solution The given problem has been rearranged in the following manner: For a standard output of 10,000 units: Skilled Labour (10,000 hrs – 20%) Unskilled Labour (10,000 hrs + 20%)

Hours 8,000 12,000 20,000

Hours 9,200 15,800 25,000

Rate Rs. 2.80 1.30

Amount Rs. 25,760 20,540 46,300

For an actual output of 12,000 units: Skilled Labour Unskilled Labour

i. Labour Cost Variance (LCV) = Standard labour cost for actual output – Actual labour cost for actual output = (Rs. 38,000 × 12,000 ÷ 10,000) – Rs. 46,300 = Rs. 45,600 – Rs. 46,300 = Rs. 700 (A) ii. Labour Rate Variance (LRV) = (SR – AR) AH × AO Skilled labour = (Rs. 2.50 – Rs. 2.80) × 9,200 = Rs. 2,760 (A) Unskilled labour = (Rs. 1.50 – Rs. 1.30) × 15,800 = Rs. 3,160 (F) Rs. 400 (F) iii. Labour Idle Time Variance (LITV) = SR × Abnormal idle hours Unskilled labour = Rs. 1.50 × 200 hrs = Rs. 300 (A) Note: LITV always be negative or adverse. iv. Labour Efficiency Variance (LEV) = SR [SH × AO – AH × AO] Skilled labour = Rs. 2.50 [(8,000 × 12,000 ÷ 10,000) − 9,200] = Rs. 1,000 (F) Unskilled labour = Rs. 1.50 [(12,000 × 12,000 ÷ 10,000) − (15,800 − 200)] = Rs. 1,800 (A) Rs. 800 (A) Note: While calculating LEV, Effective actual hours worked [i.e., Gross actual hours for actual output (AH × AO) – Abnormal idle hours] to be taken as actual hours for actual output. v. Labour Mix Variance (LMV) = SR [RSH – (AH × AO)] Skilled labour = Rs. 2.50 (10,000 – 9,200) = Rs. 2,000 (F) Unskilled labour = Rs. 1.50 (15,000 – 15,600) = Rs. 900 (A) Rs. 1,100 (F) Note: Here, AH × AO = Gross actual hours for AO – Abnormal idle hours vi. Labour-Yield Variance (LYV) = SR [(SH × AO) – RSH] Skilled labour = Rs. 2.50 [(8,000 × 12,000 ÷ 10,000) − 10,200] = Rs. 1,000 (A) Unskilled labour = Rs. 1.50 [(12,000 × 12,000÷10,000) − 15,000] = Rs. 900 (A) Rs. 1,900 (A)

ii. Let the actual sales quantity of Product Y be ‘a’ units. We know, Sales Mix Variance (SMV) = SR [AQ – RSQ] RSQ = Total actual sales quantity in standard ratio ∴RSQ for Product X = {400 ÷ (400 + 400)} × (500 + a) = (500 + a) ÷ 2 units ∴RSQ for product Y = {400 ÷ (400 + 400)} × (500 + a) = (500 + a) ÷ 2 units ∴SMV for Product X = 12 [500 − {(500 + a) ÷ 2}] = 12 {(500 − a) ÷ 2} = 3,000 – 6a ∴SMV for Product Y = 15 [a − {(500 + a) ÷ 2}] = 15 {(a − 500) ÷ 2} = 7.5a – 3,750 SMV for both the products = 1.5a – 750 ∴By condition, 1.5a – 750 = 450 or 1.5a = 450 + 750 or a = 1,200 ÷ 1.5 = 800 ∴ Actual sales quantity of Product Y = 800 units iii. Sales Price Variance (SPV) = AQ (AR – SR) ∴ SPV for Product X = 500 (Rs. 15 – Rs. 12) = Rs. 1,500 (F) ∴ SPV for Product Y = 800 (Rs. 20 – Rs. 15) = Rs. 4,000 (F) iv. Sales Volume Variance (SVV) = SR (AQ – BQ) ∴ SVV for Product Y = Rs. 15 (800 – 400) = Rs. 6,000 (F) v. Total Sales Value Variance (TSVV) = AQ × AR – BQ × SR ∴ TSVV for Product X = 500 × Rs. 15 – 400 × Rs. 12 = Rs. 2,700 (F) ∴ TSVV for Product Y = 800 × Rs. 20 – 400 × Rs. 15 = Rs. 10,000 (F) CHAPTER REVIEW SUMMARY  Standard Cost is the predetermined cost what should have been under the specified operating conditions. It is the yardstick of measuring the efficiency of the actual cost incurred.  Standard Costing is the method of setting up of standard costs and applying them to measure the deviations from the actual costs and analysing the causes of such deviation with a view to maximize the efficiency of the production functions.  Steps adopted for establishing a Standard Costing System in an organization are: (a) Establishment of cost centres; (b) Classification of accounts; and (c) Types of standard.  Standard may be classified into the following five types: (a) Basic standard; (b) Current standard; (c) Ideal standard; (d) Normal standard; and (e) Expected or practical standard.  Standard Cost refers to the scientifically calculated predetermined cost that should have been under the specified conditions. It is ideal in nature and related to future. Estimated Cost is also a predetermined cost, but computed with the help of historic data. It is probable in nature and related to future. Actual or Historical Cost is the cost actually incurred in the past and ascertained after it is incurred. It is actual in nature and related to past.  Advantages of Standard Costing are: (a) It facilitates an effective cost control and provides necessary information for cost control; (b) It identifies the areas of strength and weakness of production functions; (c) It helps in measuring the efficiency of the actual performance; (d) It helps in formulation of future production and pricing policies; (e) It is useful for budgeting and planning; and (f) It provides useful information for price quotation of the products.  Limitations of Standard Costing are: (a) Standard Costing System is not effective for the organizations which deal with non-standardized products and jobs which change according to customer’s specification; (b) Sometimes, it becomes difficult, in practise, to establish standards as it needs a high degree of technical skill;

(c) If standards are inaccurately established, wrong and misleading conclusions may be drawn; (d) Installation of Standard Costing System in an organization is a very costly one and accordingly, small business organizations cannot afford to install this system; and (e) Standard Costing is only a tool of management and not a substitute of management. Distinction between Standard Costing and Budgetary Control are: (a) Standard Costing is based on technical assessment whereas Budgetary Control is based on past performance adjusted with future trend; (b) Standard Costing is the method of preparation of Standard Cost and application of those for measuring the efficiency of the actual cost whereas Budgetary Control is the method of forecasting cost by preparation of budget prior to a definite period to attain the given objectives; (c) Standard Cost is a projection of cost accounts whereas budget is a projection of financial accounts; and (d) Standard Costing is mainly concerned with the ascertainment and control of costs whereas Budgetary Control is mainly concerned with the profitability and financial position of a concern. The deviation of actual performance from the standard set out is called ‘variance.’  Variance Analysis is the process of analysing reasons behind the variances occurred by sub-dividing them in such a manner so that the management can be reported for adopting remedial measures for any off-standard performance. It involves three functional actions, which are: (i) Ascertainment of individual variances; (ii) Determination of causes of variance; and (iii) Reporting to the management for taking a corrective action for any off-standard performance. Broadly, variances are classified into two parts—Cost variances and Sales variances. Again, cost variances are classified into four parts for each of the cost element, such as MCVs, LCV, VOV (Variable Overhead Variance) and FOV (Fixed Overhead Variance). Sales variances are classified into two parts, such as SVV and SPMV. Each of the variance is again sub-divided into various sub-variances.

Absorption Costing and Variable Costing

LEARNING OBJECTIVES On completion of the study of the chapter, you should be able to understand: What is Absorption Costing? Features, advantages and limitations of Absorption Costing. What is Variable Costing? Features, advantages and limitations of Variable Costing. Distinction between Absorption Costing and Variable Costing. How profit is determined under Absorption Costing and Variable Costing?

9.1 ABSORPTION COSTING Absorption Costing may be defined as the technique which takes into account both Fixed and Variable Costs for determining unit cost of the goods produced or the operation carried on. The Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA), United Kingdom, defines Absorption Costing as ‘the practice of charging all costs, both variable and fixed, to operations, processes or products’. Under this technique, the cost per unit of the goods produced represents the Variable Cost per unit plus the allocated share of Fixed Cost per unit. Here, ‘Absorbed Cost’ is the total of direct cost and overheads cost. Accordingly, Absorption Costing is also called Full or Total Costing. Wherever this technique of costing is applied, the cost per unit remains the same only when the level of output remains constant. When the level of output changes, the cost per unit also changes because of the existence of Fixed Cost in the unit cost. The Fixed Cost remains constant even when there is a change in the output level. Under this technique, closing inventory is also valued at total cost, which includes Variable Cost as well as Fixed Cost. 9.2 FEATURES OF ABSORPTION COSTING Distinguished features of Absorption Costing are as follows: i. Under this technique, both Fixed as well as Variable Costs are allocated to the Cost Unit. ii. Under it, the overhead costs are allocated to Cost Unit with the help of the overhead absorption rate. iii. Under it, the closing inventories are also valued at both Fixed as well as Variable Costs. iv. Under this technique, the periodic profit is affected by a change in the inventory as well as in the volume of sales. Accordingly, the profit may be shifted from one accounting period to another by increasing or decreasing the Inventories. v. Under it, the profit becomes a function of production instead of sales.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

9.3 ADVANTAGES OF ABSORPTION COSTING Absorption Costing Technique has the following advantages: i. It recognizes the importance of incorporating the Fixed Cost into the Unit Cost of production. ii. Unit price as determined under Absorption Costing technique ensures that all costs are included in it. iii. It reduces the work-burden of segregation of cost into fixed and variable parts. iv. It confirms the accrual concepts by matching the costs with the revenue for a particular period. v. Under this costing technique, the inventory can be valued at the total cost. vi. Identification of an effective utilization of production resources is possible by application of Absorption Costing. vii. It helps to calculate Gross Profit and Net Profit separately in the Income Statement for an accounting period. 9.4 LIMITATIONS OF ABSORPTION COSTING In spite of having a number of important advantages, Absorption Costing technique suffers from the following limitations: i. It can be effectively used only at a constant level of output to get a uniform unit cost. Under this technique, unit costs would be different for different levels of output. ii. As the unit costs as determined by this technique under different levels of output are different, the process of cost comparison and cost control becomes difficult. iii. In Absorption Costing, a portion of Fixed Cost is carried forward to the next accounting period as the closing inventory is valued at the total cost which includes a proportionate Fixed Cost. iv. Most of the accountants opine that Fixed Costs are period costs and they do not produce future benefits of the concerns and hence, should not be included in the unit cost of production. v. Under this costing technique, a portion of Fixed Cost is not charged against the revenue of the period in which they are incurred due to the inclusion of Fixed Cost in the closing inventory. Thus, the profit for an accounting period cannot be accurately computed under this technique. vi. Absorption Cost deals with production cost alone and ignores administration, selling and distribution costs. vii. It is not helpful for managerial decision making process, such as selection of suitable product mix, temporary shut down of plant, suspension of production activity if required or not, choice between various alternatives or pricing decision. 9.5 VARIABLE COSTING Variable Costing is also called ‘Marginal Costing’. It may be defined as the technique which charges only the Variable Cost to the cost unit. According to the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA), United Kingdom, Marginal Costing is ‘the technique of ascertainment of Marginal Cost and of the effect on profit of changes in volume by differentiating between Fixed and Variable Costs.’ CIMA also defines Marginal Cost as ‘the cost for producing one additional unit of the product.’ Generally, the cost of a product includes the Fixed and Variable Costs. If one unit of output of the product is increased, only the Variable Cost increases, as the Fixed Cost remains constant even in the change of output level. Therefore, the additional cost incurred for producing one additional unit represents the Variable Cost only. This increase in cost (i.e., the Variable Cost) due to increase in one additional unit of output is called Marginal Cost. Hence, Marginal Cost is nothing but Variable Cost. That is why Variable Costing is also called Marginal Costing.

ABSORPTION COSTING AND VARIABLE COSTING

617

9.6 FEATURES OF VARIABLE COSTING Distinguished features of Variable Costing are as follows: i. Under Variable Costing technique, only Variable Costs are charged to the cost unit. Fixed Costs are recovered from contribution. ii. Under this costing technique, all costs including Semi-variable Costs are divided into two parts, such as fixed and variable, on the basis of their variability with respect to the change in the levels of output. iii. Under this technique, the closing inventories are valued at Variable Cost only. iv. Under it, the selling price is based on the Variable Cost plus contribution. v. Under this technique, profit is calculated in two parts: (a) Contribution = Sales – Variable Cost; and (b) Profit = Contribution – Fixed Cost. vi. It is an important managerial technique for decision-making and cost control. vii. Break-even Analysis and Cost–Volume–Profit (CVP) analysis are integral parts of this costing technique. 9.7 ADVANTAGES OF VARIABLE COSTING Variable Costing technique has the following advantages: i. It provides useful data for the managerial decision-making. ii. It is a very effective tool of profit planning. iii. It facilitates control over Variable Costs by avoidance of arbitrary apportionment or allocation of Fixed Costs. iv. Under this technique, the problems on computation of accurate fixed factory overhead rate can be avoided as fixed overheads are charged against contribution. v. Under this technique, as the valuation of closing inventory is done at a Variable Cost only, the problem of illogically carrying forward the Fixed Cost of one period to the next period through closing inventories can be avoided. vi. It provides useful information to the management for pricing the product of the enterprise. Since the Variable Cost per unit is constant from period to period within a short span of time, the decision on pricing the product can easily be taken by the management. vii. It helps the management in the process of cost control by concentrating on the Variable Cost alone, as Fixed Costs are non-controllable in the short span of time. viii. It provides the management with many useful techniques for decision-making, like Break-even Analysis, Profit–Volume (PV) Ratio, Variable Cost Ratio. ix. It ensures a greater control over the cost through Standard Costing and budgetary control. x. Use of Variable Cost technique is very simple and easy to understand and operate. 9.8 LIMITATIONS OF VARIABLE COSTING In spite of having important advantages, Variable Costing technique suffers from the following limitations: i. It assumes that Semi-Variable Costs can be segregated into two parts, fixed and variable elements. In practice, however, such segregation of Semi-Variable Costs is a very difficult task. ii. It excludes Fixed Cost for decision-making, which sometimes may lead to a wrong conclusion. iii. With the development of technology and application of automation in the industry, Fixed Costs have substantially increased and their impact on production cost is no longer ignorable nowadays. Thus, the Variable Costing technique fails to reflect the impact of these costs on the production cost, as it focuses a greater emphasis on the Variable Cost only in determining the Product Cost. iv. Variable Cost technique cannot be successfully applied in ‘Cost Plus Contract’ unless an adequate percentage over the Variable Cost is charged from the contractee to cover the Fixed Cost and profit.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

v. As the Variable Costing technique does not provide any specific parameter for control, cost control can be better achieved with the help of Standard Costing and Budgetary Control than with the Variable Costing technique. vi. It is not very useful for valuation of inventory in case of abnormal loss and such valuation is not accepted from the point of view of the income tax authorities and auditors. vii. It does not resolve the difficulties that are involved in the apportionment of variable overheads. viii. It does not reflect the impact of time factor and the value of investment that is made for the determination of Product Cost. 9.9 INCOME DETERMINATION UNDER ABSORPTION COSTING AND VARIABLE COSTING Net income (i.e., Net Profit) as computed under Variable Costing technique always moves in the same direction as sales volume. On the other hand, the net income as computed under Absorption Costing technique does not move in the same direction as sales volume, but at times it moves in the opposite direction from Sales. This happens due to the impact of existence of inventories as valued under the Absorption Costing technique in the Income Statement. The net income under both the techniques becomes equal when the sales volume is equal to the production volume, that is, there is no opening or closing inventories. If the sales volume is not equal to the production volume, the net income as computed under these two techniques would not be equal. The relationship between the net income as determined under these two techniques may be summarized as follows: i. When the production quantity is equal to the sales quantity (i.e., no opening or closing inventories), then the net income computed under Variable Costing and Absorption Costing techniques would be the same. ii. When there is opening inventory only and no closing inventory (i.e., the situation when the sales volume exceeds the production volume), the net income as computed under Variable Costing technique becomes higher than the net income as ascertained under the Absorption Costing technique. iii. When there is closing inventory only and no opening inventory (i.e., the situation when the production volume exceeds the sales volume), the net income as computed under the Absorption Costing technique becomes higher than the net income as ascertained under the Variable Costing technique. iv. When there are both opening and closing inventories and the volume of the opening inventory is more than that of the closing inventory (i.e., the situation when the sales volume exceeds the production volume), the net income as computed under Variable Costing technique becomes higher than the net income as ascertained under the Absorption Costing technique, if both opening and closing inventories are valued at a uniform price. v. When there are both opening and closing inventories and the volume of the closing inventory is more than that of the opening inventory (i.e., the situation when the production volume exceeds the sales volume), then the net income as computed under the Absorption Costing technique becomes higher than the net income as ascertained under the Variable Costing technique, if both opening and closing inventories are valued at a uniform price.

Stop and Think The summarized analysis of net income under Absorption Costing and Variable Costing is as follows: i. When Production = Sales: Net income under Absorption Costing = Net income under Variable Costing. ii. When Production > Sales: Net income under Absorption Costing > Net income under Variable Costing. iii. When Production < Sales: Net income under Absorption Costing < Net income under Variable Costing.

9.10 DISTINCTION BETWEEN ABSORPTION COSTING AND VARIABLE COSTING Absorption Costing 1. Both fixed and Variable Costs are charged to the product cost. 2. As fixed overheads are also charged to the product cost, these are arbitrarily apportioned to various products. 3. Closing inventories are valued at the total cost, which includes both fixed as well as Variable Cost. Accordingly, the value of inventory under Absorption Costing is higher than that under the Variable Costing. 4. Different unit product costs are obtained at different levels of output, even if the price level remains constant over the years. 5. The difference between the sales and the total cost represents profit. 6. Managerial decisions are guided by relative profit made by products.

Variable Costing 1. Only Variable Costs are charged to the product cost. Fixed Costs are recovered from the contribution. 2. As fixed overheads are not charged to the product cost, there would be no under- or over-recovery of fixed overheads. 3. Closing inventories are valued at variable or marginal cost. Accordingly, the value of the inventory under Variable Costing is lower than that under the Absorption Costing. 4. If the price level remains constant over the years, the unit product cost also remains constant at different levels of output. 5. The difference between the sales and the Variable Cost represents contribution and the difference between the contribution and the Fixed Cost represents profit. 6. Managerial decisions are guided by relative contribution made by products. (Continued)

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Absorption Costing 7. Costs are classified according to their functional elements as production cost, office and administration cost, and selling and distribution cost. 8. Absorption costing fails to establish the relationship between cost, volume and profit.

Variable Costing 7. Costs are classified according to their behaviour such as Fixed Cost and Variable Cost. 8. Variable Costing establishes a relationship between cost, volume and profit, which is an integral part of the Variable Costing itself.

Tutorial Notes to Students for Solving Problems i. Students shall be mainly asked to determine the profit by means of preparation of income statement as per Absorption Costing technique and Variable Costing technique, and a comparative study between the two profits has to be made. ii. It is to be noted that the Opening and Closing Stock of finished goods are to be valued, as per Absorption Costing technique, at the total production cost (i.e., fixed as well as variable production cost). On the other hand, the Opening and Closing Stock of finished goods are to be valued, as per Variable Costing technique, at a variable production cost only. iii. If not otherwise stated, the Closing Stock of finished goods is to be valued based on FIFO (First-in First-out). iv. Net income under these two costing techniques will always be different unless the production volume is equal to the sales volume. In other words, the profits calculated under Absorption Costing and Variable Costing become equal only when the production quantity is equal to the sales quantity, that is, when there is no Opening or Closing Stock of finished goods. v. If the production volume is higher than the sales volume, the profit as per Absorption Costing technique will be higher than that under the Variable Costing technique. On the other hand, if the sales volume is higher than the production volume, the profit as per Variable Costing technique will be higher than that under Absorption Costing technique.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Stop and Think In the given problem, as the sales volume is more than the production volume and the Opening and Closing Stock are taken at different values under Absorption Costing and Variable Costing techniques, the net income as ascertained under these two techniques become different. This happens due to the overvaluation of Opening and Closing stock under Absorption Costing (or undervaluation of Opening and Closing Stock under Variable Costing). Under Absorption Costing, the Opening and Closing Stock of Finished Goods are valued at total factory cost (i.e., fixed factory cost plus variable factory cost), whereas under Variable Costing, these are valued at only variable factory cost, which results in the difference in the net income under these two costing techniques.

Problem 4 A company is having a production capacity of 1,00,000 units per year. The normal capacity utilization is reckoned at 80%. The standard variable production costs are Rs. 15 per unit and fixed production costs are Rs. 3,20,000 per year. The variable selling costs are Rs. 4 per unit and fixed selling costs are Rs. 1,60,000 per year. The unit selling price is Rs. 30. During the year that ended on 31 March 2009, 75,000 units were produced and 70,000 units were sold. The closing inventory on 31 March 2009 was 10,000 units. The actual variable production cost for the year was Rs. 75,000 which was higher than the standard. Prepare an income statement under: (i) Absorption Costing technique; and (ii) Variable Costing technique. [B. Com. (Hons.), Delhi University—Adapted] Solution i.

technique. It may be seriously noted that in April 2009, when the sales quantity exceeds the production quantity, a higher profit is ascertained under Marginal Costing technique and a lower profit is ascertained under Absorption Costing technique. Again in March 2009, when the production quantity exceeds the sales quantity, a higher profit is ascertained under Absorption Costing technique and a lower profit is ascertained under Marginal Costing technique. Therefore, on the basis of the above information, it can be concluded that when sales are in excess of production, Marginal Costing produces higher profit and when production exceeds sales, Absorption Costing produces higher profit.  Working Notes 1. Closing Stock of Finished Goods of March 2009 (in volume) = Production Volume – Sales Volume = 10,000 – 5,000 = 5,000 units. 2. Opening Stock of Finished Goods of April 2009 (in volume) = Closing Stock of Finished Goods of March 2009 = 5,000 units. 3. Under Absorption Costing, the stock is valued at the total cost, but under Variable Costing, it is taken at the variable cost only.

CHAPTER REVIEW SUMMARY  Absorption Costing may be defined as ‘the technique which takes into account both fixed and variable costs for determining unit cost of the goods produced or the operation carried on’. It is also called Full Costing or Total Costing.  Distinguished features of Absorption Costing are: (a) Both fixed and variable costs are allocated to cost unit; (b) Overhead costs are allocated to cost unit with the help of Overhead Absorption Rate; and (c) The closing inventories are also valued at both Fixed and Variable Costs.  Absorption Costing has many advantages: (a) It recognizes the importance of incorporating fixed cost into the unit cost of production; (b) It reduces the work-burden of segregation of cost into fixed and variable parts; (c) Inventory can be valued at total cost; and (d) It helps to calculate Gross Profit and Net Profit separately in the income statement for an accounting period.  Limitations of Absorption Costing are: (a) It can be effectively used only at a constant level of output to get a uniform unit cost. The unit costs would be different for different levels of output; (b) A portion of fixed cost is carried forward to the next accounting period as the closing inventory is valued at the total cost which includes a proportionate fixed cost; (c) Most of the accountants opine that such fixed costs do not produce future benefits and hence, should not be included in the unit cost of production; and (d) It is not helpful for any managerial decision making process.  Variable Costing is also called Marginal Costing. It may be defined as ‘the technique which charges only the variable cost to the cost unit.’ The additional cost incurred for producing one additional unit represents the variable cost only. This increase in cost (i.e., variable cost) due to an increase in one additional unit of output is called marginal cost. Hence, marginal cost is nothing but variable cost.  Distinguished features of Variable Costing are: (a) Only variable costs are charged to the cost unit. fixed costs are recovered from contribution; (b) All costs including semi-variable costs are divided into two parts — fixed and variable; (c) closing inventories are valued at variable cost only; and (d) Break-even analysis and CVP analysis are integral parts of this costing technique.  Variable Costing technique has many advantages: (a) It provides useful data for managerial decision-making; (b) It is a very effective tool of profit planning; (c) It facilitates control over variable costs by avoidance of arbitrary apportionment or allocation of fixed costs; (d) Problems on computation of accurate fixed factory overhead rate can be avoided as fixed overheads are charged against contribution; and (h) It provides the management with many useful techniques for decision making like Break-even analysis.  Limitations of Variable Costing are: (a) It assumes that the semi-variable costs can be segregated into two parts—fixed and variable elements. In practice, however, such segregation of semi-variable costs is very difficult; (b) It excludes fixed cost for decision making, which sometimes may lead to wrong conclusions;

(c) It fails to reflect the impact of increased fixed costs due to the development of technology on Production cost; and (d) Variable Cost technique cannot be successfully applied in ‘Cost Plus Contract.’ Net income under these two costing techniques becomes equal when the sales volume is equal to the production volume, i.e., there is no opening or closing inventories. If sales volume is not equal to the production volume, then the net incomes as computed under these two techniques would not be equal. Distinction between Absorption Costing and Variable Costing are: (a) Both fixed and variable costs are charged to the product cost under absorption costing whereas only variable costs are charged to the Product cost under variable costing; (b) Closing inventories are valued at total cost under absorption costing whereas these are valued at variable cost only under variable costing; (c) Costs are classified according to their functional elements under absorption costing whereas costs are classified according to their behaviour under variable costing; and (d) Absorption Costing fails to establish the relationship between cost, volume, and profit, whereas variable costing establishes a relationship between cost, volume, and profit, which is an integral part of variable costing.

Marginal Costing and Cost–Volume–Profit Analysis

10

LEARNING OBJECTIVES On completion of the study of the chapter, you should be able to understand: What is Marginal Cost? What is Marginal Costing? Features, advantages and limitations of Marginal Costing. Concept of Cost–Volume–Profit (CVP) Analysis. Features and objectives of CVP Analysis. Classification of cost under Marginal Costing Technique. Elements of CVP Analysis. Marginal Cost equation. Concept of contribution, Break-Even (BE) Point and Margin of Safety. Concept of Profit–Volume Ratio. Concept of BE Analysis. Concept of BE Chart and Angle of Incidence. Development of different formulae under CVP Analysis.

10.1 CONCEPT OF MARGINAL COST According to the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA), London, Marginal Cost is defined as ‘the amount at any given volume of output by which aggregate costs are changed if the volume of output is increased or decreased by one unit. In practice, this is measured by the total Variable Cost attributable to one unit.’ Analysing the above definition, it can be concluded that Marginal Cost is nothing but the additional cost incurred for an increase in one additional unit of output (or decremental cost for decrease in one unit of output). Cost generally consists of two parts—Fixed Cost and Variable Cost. While Fixed Cost remains unchanged in the short run with the change in the output level, the Variable Cost varies with the change in the output level. Accordingly, for an increase in one additional unit of output, only Variable Cost increases and Fixed Cost remains unchanged. Therefore, an additional cost incurred for an increase in one additional unit of output is nothing but the Variable Cost only. Hence, Marginal Cost is nothing but Variable Cost. Illustration Say, the Variable Cost per unit of a product is Rs. 4 and the total Fixed Cost for the product is Rs. 5,000. Therefore, the Total Cost of producing 1,000 units of output = Variable Cost + Fixed Cost = (1,000 units × Rs. 4) + Rs. 5,000 = Rs. 9,000. Now, if one additional unit is produced beyond 1,000 units (i.e., 1,001 units), then the Total Cost for producing 1,001 units = Variable Cost + Fixed Cost = (1,001 units × Rs. 4) + Rs. 5,000 = Rs. 9,004. Hence, the additional cost incurred for producing one additional unit = Rs. 9,004 − Rs. 9,000 = Rs. 4.

MARGINAL COSTING AND COST–VOLUME–PROFIT ANALYSIS

633

This additional cost of Rs. 4 incurred for producing one additional unit is the Marginal Cost, which is nothing but the Variable Cost per unit. 10.2 DEFINITION OF MARGINAL COSTING As per CIMA, London, Marginal Costing is defined as ‘the ascertainment of Marginal Cost and of the effect on profit of changes in volume or type of output by differentiating between Fixed Costs and Variable Costs.’ CIMA, London, further defines Marginal Costing as ‘the accounting system in which Variable Costs are charged to the cost units and Fixed Costs of the period are written off in full against the aggregate contribution.’ Analysing the above, it can be said that Marginal Costing is the method of ascertaining Marginal Cost and it evaluates the effect of fixed and Variable Costs on profit due to change in the volume of production. 10.3 FEATURES OF MARGINAL COSTING Distinguished features of Marginal Costing are as follows: i. Under Marginal Costing alone, Variable Costs are charged to the cost unit. Fixed Costs are recovered from the contribution. ii. Under this costing technique, all costs including semi-variable costs are divided into two parts, such as fixed and variable, on the basis of their variability with respect to the change in the levels of output. iii. Under this costing technique, the closing inventories are valued at Variable Cost only. iv. Under this costing technique, Selling Price is based on the Variable Cost plus contribution. v. Under this costing technique, profit is calculated in two parts: (a) Contribution = Sales − Variable Cost; and (b) Profit = Contribution − Fixed Cost. vi. It is an important managerial technique for Decision Making and cost control. vii. Break-Even (BE) Analysis and Cost–Volume–Profit (CVP) Analysis are integral parts of this costing technique. 10.4 ADVANTAGES OF MARGINAL COSTING Marginal Costing Technique has the following advantages: i. It provides useful data for managerial Decision Making. ii. It is a very effective tool of profit planning. iii. It facilitates control over Variable Costs by avoidance of arbitrary apportionment or allocation of Fixed Costs. iv. Under this technique, problems on computation of accurate, fixed factory overhead rate can be avoided as fixed overheads are charged against contribution. v. As, under this technique, the valuation of closing inventory is done at Variable Cost only, the problem of illogical carry forward of Fixed Cost of one period to the next period through closing inventories can be avoided. vi. It provides useful information to the management for pricing the product of the enterprise. As the Variable Cost per unit is constant from period to period within a short span of time, the decision on pricing the product can easily be taken by the management. vii. It helps the management in the process of cost control by concentrating on Variable Cost alone, as Fixed Costs are non-controllable in such a short span of time. viii. It provides many useful techniques to the management for Decision Making like BE Analysis, Profit–Volume (P/V) Ratio, Variable Cost (VC) Ratio and so on. ix. It ensures a greater control over the cost through Standard Costing and Budgetary Control. x. Use of Marginal Cost Technique is very simple as it is very easy to understand and very simple to operate.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

10.5 LIMITATIONS OF MARGINAL COSTING In spite of having immense important advantages, Marginal Costing Technique suffers from the following limitations too: i. Marginal Costing Technique assumes that semi-variable costs can be segregated into two parts—fixed and variable elements. In practice, however, such segregation of semi-variable costs is a very difficult task. ii. It excludes the Fixed Cost for Decision Making, which sometimes may lead to a wrong conclusion. iii. With the development of technology and application of automation in the industry, Fixed Costs have substantially increased and their impact on production cost is no longer ignorable nowadays. Thus, Marginal Costing Technique fails to reflect the impact of these costs on Production Cost, as it gives a greater emphasis on Variable Cost only in determination of the Product Cost. iv. This technique cannot be successfully applied in ‘Cost plus Contract’ unless an adequate percentage over the Variable Cost is charged from the contractee to cover the Fixed Cost and profit. v. As this technique does not provide any specific parameter for control, cost control can be better achieved with the help of Standard Costing and Budgetary Control instead of relying on this technique. vi. It is not very useful for the valuation of inventory in case of abnormal loss, and such valuation is not accepted from the view point of the income tax authorities and auditors. vii. Marginal Costing Technique does not resolve the difficulties involved in the apportionment of variable overheads. viii. It ignores to reflect the impact of time factor and value of investment made for the determination of Product Cost. 10.6 MEANING OF COST–VOLUME–PROFIT (CVP) ANALYSIS As per the official terminology of CIMA, London, Cost–Volume–Profit (CVP) Analysis is ‘the study of the effects on future profit of changes in Fixed Cost, Variable Cost, sale price, quantity and mix.’ There is a direct relationship between the cost, volume of output and profit. The Total Cost of a product depends on its volume of the output. On the other hand, profit from the product depends on its Total Sales and Total Cost. Therefore, profitability of a product depends on its Total Cost and the volume of production. CVP Analysis examines the relationship of costs and profit to the volume of production to maximize the profit of the firm. The method of studying the relationship between the cost, volume of production, sales and their impact on profit is called CVP Analysis. It is a logical extension of Marginal Costing and is used as a very powerful tool by the management in the process of budgeting and profit planning. It is also useful for short-term Decision Making. BE Analysis is a widely used technique to study CVP relationship. 10.7 FEATURES OF CVP ANALYSIS CVP Analysis has the following distinguished features: i. It evaluates the behaviour of cost in relation to production or sales volume. ii. It exhibits the effect on profit due to the changes in cost and volume of output. iii. It evaluates the amount of projected profit for a projected sales value or volume. iv. It evaluates the amount and quantity of production and sales needed to achieve a target profit level. v. It evaluates the value and volume of sales needed to achieve BE. 10.8 OBJECTIVES OF CVP ANALYSIS CVP Analysis has the following objectives: i. It helps to forecast the profit fairly and accurately. ii. It acts as an effective tool of profit planning to the management.

iii. It helps in ascertaining the BE Point (BEP) of the product produced and sold. iv. It is very much useful in setting up the flexible budget, which ascertains cost, profit and sales at different levels of activity. v. It assists the management in the process of performance evaluation for the purpose of control. vi. It helps in formulating the price policies by projecting the effect of different price structures on the costs and profits. vii. It helps in determining the amount of overhead cost to be charged to the product at different levels of operation, as overhead rates are generally predetermined on the basis of a selected volume of production. viii. It helps in determining the optimum product mix in case where multiple products are produced and sold by a firm. 10.9 ASSUMPTIONS UNDERLYING CVP ANALYSIS The CVP Analysis is based on the following assumptions: i. Total Cost consists of two components—Fixed Cost and Variable Cost. ii. Variable Cost varies with the change in the output level whereas Fixed Cost remains constant even at different levels of output. iii. Selling Price per unit remains constant at different volumes of sales. iv. Only one product is sold by the concern or if it sells multiple products, the sales mix remains constant at different volumes of sales. v. Volume of production is equal to the sales volume, that is, there would be no opening or closing inventory during a period. vi. The efficiency and productivity level is constant at different levels of output. vii. There would be no change in the price of material, rate of wages, and so on, at all the levels of production. 10.10 CLASSIFICATION OF COST UNDER CVP ANALYSIS In CVP Analysis, costs are classified into two parts—Fixed Cost and Variable Cost. Fixed Cost: It remains fixed at different levels of production. Fixed Cost does not change with the change in the output level, for example, rent, salary to staff, insurance premium and so on. Variable Cost: It does not remain fixed at different levels of production. Variable Cost varies with the change in the output level, for example, materials, wages, power and so on. There is another type of cost called Semi-Variable Cost. It remains fixed with the change in the output up to a certain level, but it varies with the change in the output beyond that level of output, for example, repairs and maintenance. Semi-Variable Cost consists of both fixed as well as variable elements in it. It is not separately recognized in CVP Analysis. A fixed portion of the Semi-Variable Cost is clubbed with the Fixed Cost and its variable portion is clubbed with the Variable Cost. Therefore, in CVP Analysis, costs are divided into two parts only—Fixed Cost and Variable Cost. 10.11 ELEMENTS OF CVP ANALYSIS CVP Analysis establishes a relationship between cost, volume of output and profit. It evaluates the effect on profit due to changes in cost and volume of output. This analysis consists of several integral parts or components which are as follows: i. Marginal Cost Equation. ii. Contribution. iii. Profit–Volume (P/V) Ratio.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

iv. Break-Even Point (BEP). v. Margin of Safety (MS). Each element of the CVP Analysis is explained separately as follows. i. Marginal Cost Equation Marginal Cost equation exhibits the relationship between contribution, Fixed Cost and profit. It explains that the excess of sales over the Variable Cost is the contribution towards Fixed Cost and profit. Marginal Cost equation can be developed as follows: Sales (S) = Total Cost + Profit (P) Again, Total Cost = Fixed Cost (F) + Variable Cost (V) ∴ S = F + V + P or S – V = F + P Now, Contribution (C) = Excess of Sales over Variable Cost, i.e., C = S – V ∴C=F+P ii. Contribution Contribution is the excess of sales over Variable Cost. More clearly, contribution is that portion of sales which remains after recovering the Variable Cost to that extent of sales. This contribution is available towards Fixed Cost and profit. Mathematically, contribution can be expressed as follows: Contribution (C) = Excess of Sales over Variable Cost ∴C=S–V Again, from Marginal Cost Equation, we get: S=F+P+V or S−V=F+P ∴C=F+P Therefore, generally, contribution is equal to the Fixed Cost plus profit. Illustration Say, 2,000 units of a product are sold at Rs. 10 per unit. Variable Cost of manufacturing the product is Rs. 6 per unit and the total Fixed Cost is Rs. 5,000. Solution

Less:

Contribution

Rs. 20,000 12,000 8,000

Contribution

Rs. 5,000 3,000 8,000

Sales (S) (2,000 × Rs. 10) Variable Cost (V) (2,000 × Rs. 6)

Alternatively:

Add:

Fixed Cost Profit (S − V − F = 20,000 − 12,000 − 5,000)

Difference Between Contribution and Profit Contribution is the excess of sales over Variable Cost alone, whereas profit is the excess of sales over variable as well as Fixed Costs. Generally, contribution should be higher than the profit as it includes Fixed Cost and profit, that is, C = F + P. At the MS level of sales alone, contribution is equal to the profit, that is, C = P.

MARGINAL COSTING AND COST–VOLUME–PROFIT ANALYSIS

Therefore, contribution includes the total profit, but the profit does not include the total contribution. Profit includes a portion of contribution that has been arrived at by the deduction of Fixed Cost from the total contribution, that is, C − F = P. iii. Profit–Volume Ratio (P/V Ratio) Profit–Volume (P/V) Ratio is the ratio of contribution and sales. It is generally expressed in percentage. It exhibits the percentage of contribution included in sales. It indicates the effect on the profit for a given change in sales. Mathematically, P/V Ratio can be expressed as follows: P/V Ratio =

C × 100 S

Mathematically, P/V Ratio may be expressed in different forms as shown in the following: P/V Ratio =

S−V × 100 S

[As C = S − V]

P/V Ratio =

F+P × 100 P

[As C = F + P]

P/V Ratio =

Change in Profit × 100 Change in Sales

Illustration Say, 5,000 units of a product are sold at Rs. 10 per unit. The Variable Cost of manufacturing the product is Rs. 6 per unit and the total Fixed Cost is Rs. 15,000. Solution

Less:

Sales (S) [5,000 × Rs. 10] Variable Cost (V) [5,000 × Rs. 6]

Less:

Fixed Cost

Contribution Profit

Rs. 50,000 30,000 20,000 15,000 5,000

From the above calculation, P/V Ratio may be computed in the following ways: 1. P/V Ratio =

C 20,000 × 100 = × 100 = 40% S 50,000

2. P/V Ratio =

S−V 10 − 6 × 100 = × 100 = 40% S 10

or

P/V Ratio =

3. P/V Ratio =

S−V 50,000 − 30,000 × 100 = × 100 = 40% S 50,000

F+P 15,000 + 5,000 × 100 = × 100 = 40% S 50,000

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Features of P/V Ratio P/V Ratio is an indicator of the rate at which the profit is being earned by a concern. It can be improved either by increasing the Selling Price per unit or by reducing the Variable Cost per unit. It possesses the following distinguished features: i. It exhibits the percentage of contribution included in sales. ii. It shows the rate of profit that can be earned by a concern after achieving its BEP. iii. Higher P/V Ratio indicates a higher profitability rate of the concern. iv. It does not change with the change in the output level. v. It changes either due to the change in the Selling Price per unit or Variable Cost per unit or both. vi. It is useful to calculate the BEP. vii. It is useful to ascertain the MS. viii. It is useful to calculate profit at the given level of sales. ix. It is useful to calculate the sales that is required to earn a given profit. Stop and Think i. P/V Ratio changes if either the Selling Price per unit or the Variable Cost per unit or both changes. ii. P/V Ratio does not change at different levels of output (even in different years), if there is no change in either the Selling Price per unit or the Variable Cost per unit or both. iii. P/V Ratio does not change due to a change in the Fixed Cost.

iv. Break-Even Point (BEP) Break-Even Point (BEP) is that level of sales where there is neither profit nor loss. At BEP, the total sales revenue is equal to the Total Cost. Any sales above this BEP, a concern earns profit. On the other hand, any sale below this BEP, the concern suffers loss. At BEP, the total Fixed Cost and the Variable Cost up to that level of sales have been recovered from the sales. Generally, at any other point of sales, the contribution from sales is available towards the Fixed Cost and profit. But as there is no profit or loss at BEP, the contribution from sales at BEP is available towards the Fixed Cost only, that is, at BEP, C = F. Mathematically BEP can be expressed as follows: As per Marginal Cost Equation: S=F+P+V At BEP, there is neither profit nor loss, i.e., P or L = Nil ∴S=F+V or S−V=F ∴C=F ∴ At BEP, Contribution = Fixed Cost Illustration Say, 7,000 units of a product are sold at Rs. 10 per unit. The Variable Cost of manufacturing the product is Rs. 7 per unit and the total Fixed Cost is Rs. 21,000. Solution

This sale of Rs. 70,000 is the BEP sales (BEPS) as there is neither profit nor loss, that is, the total sale is equal to the Total Cost. At this BEPS, the contribution is equal to the Fixed Cost (i.e., Rs. 21,000).

Stop and Think i. ii. iii. iv.

BEPS increases due to the increase in Fixed Cost or Variable Cost per unit or both. BEPS decreases due to the increase in Selling Price per unit. BEPS changes due to the change in P/V Ratio. BEPS does not change due to the change in sales quantity.

v. Margin of Safety (MS) Margin of Safety (MS) is the level of sales made above the BEP. In other words, MS is the excess of actual sales over BEPS. As the total Fixed Cost for the actual sales has already been recovered at BEP, no further Fixed Cost is to be borne at the MS level of sales. Generally, at any point of sales, the contribution from sales is available towards the Fixed Cost and profit. But as the total Fixed Cost has already been recovered at BEP, the contribution from sales at MS is available towards profit only, that is, at MS, C = P. At the MS level of sales, the excess of sales over Variable Cost only represents the profit. Mathematically, MS can be expressed as follows: Margin of Safety (MS) = Actual Sales (S) − BEPS ∴ MS = S – BEPS Generally, at any point of sales other than BEP: C=F+P At BEP, the total Fixed Cost has been recovered for sales. As MS is that level of sales achieved above BEP, no further Fixed Cost is to be borne at the MS level of sales. ∴ At MS, Contribution = Profit [as at MS, no further Fixed Cost is incurred] ∴ At MS, C = P Illustration Say, 9,000 units of a product are sold at Rs. 10 per unit. The Variable Cost of manufacturing the product is Rs. 7 per unit and the BEP has been achieved at a sale of 5,000 units. Solution

Less:

Total Sales (S) (9,000 × Rs. 10) BEPS (5,000 × Rs. 10) MS

Rs. 90,000 50,000 40,000

∴ MS in units = Total Sales in units − BEPS in units = 9,000 − 5,000 = 4,000 units Again, Contribution per unit = S − V = Rs. 10 − Rs. 7 = Rs. 3 ∴ Contribution at MS = 4,000 units × Rs. 3 = Rs. 12,000 This Contribution at MS of Rs. 12,000 is equal to the profit earned from the total sale of 9,000 units.

10.12 BREAK-EVEN ANALYSIS (BE ANALYSIS) CVP Analysis is popularly known as Break-Even (BE) Analysis, even though there exists a narrow difference between the terms CVP Analysis and BE Analysis. CVP Analysis refers to the study of the effect on profit due to the changes in cost and volume of output, whereas BE Analysis refers to the study of determination of that level of activity where the total sales is equal to the Total Cost and also the study of determination of profit at any level of activity. BE Analysis is an integral part of CVP Analysis. CVP Analysis includes the entire study of profit planning, whereas BE Analysis is one of the techniques used in the study of profit planning by CVP Analysis. However, the technique of BE Analysis is so popular for studying CVP Analysis that these two terms are generally used synonymously. 10.13 BREAK-EVEN CHART (BE CHART) Break-Even Chart (BE Chart) is the graphical representation of BE Analysis. It depicts the relationship between costs, sales and profits. According to CIMA, London, BE Chart is ‘a chart which shows profit or loss at various levels of activity, the level at which neither profit nor loss is shown being termed as Break-Even Point.’ Therefore, BE chart graphically shows the profit or loss at various levels of activity and also shows the level of activity where there is no profit or no loss (i.e., Total Cost equals total sales). 10.13.1 Presentation of BE Chart On the X-axis (horizontal line) of the graph, the volume of production or sales is measured. On the Y-axis (vertical line) of the graph, the values of cost and sales are measured. The Fixed Cost line is drawn parallel to the X-axis as Fixed Cost does not change due to the change in production or sales level. The Total Cost (i.e., Fixed Cost plus Variable Cost) line is drawn from the point of intersection of the Y-axis and Fixed Cost line upward to the right. Sales line is drawn from the origin upward to the right. The BE Chart is shown in Figure 10.1.

profit or no loss. Hence, Point P shows the BEP. If there is any sale above this Point P, a concern earns profit. Therefore, the area above the Point P exhibits MS of the concern. On the other hand, if there is any sale below this Point P, the concern suffers loss. Profit or loss at any level of sales can be known by taking any point on the sales line OS. The angle created by intersection of sales line OS and Total Cost line LM at BEP P is called the Angle of Incidence, which indicates the rate at which the profit is being made by the concern. 10.14 ANGLE OF INCIDENCE Angle of Incidence is the angle formed by the intersection of sales line and Total Cost line at BEP in the BE chart (in Figure 10.1, angle SPM). This angle exhibits the rate at which the profits are being earned by the concern after reaching the BEP. It shows the profit-earning capacity of the concern. Wider angle of incidence exhibits a higher profit-earning capacity of the concern or vice-versa. The management of every concern should aim to have as wide the angle as possible. 10.15 MATHEMATICAL REPRESENTATION OF CVP ANALYSIS  Sales (S) = Cost + Profit (P) or Cost − Loss (L) Again, Cost = Fixed Cost (F) + Variable Cost (V) ∴ S = F + V + P (or − L) or S – V = F + P (or − L) 

Tutorial Notes to Students for Solving Problems i. For solving problems under CVP Analysis, it is very much essential to ascertain the P/V Ratio at first (if not given in the problem). ii. P/V Ratio remains unchanged at different levels/volume of sales, if the Selling Price per unit and Variable Cost per unit remain changed. iii. P/V Ratio remains unaltered even in different years, if the Selling Price per unit and Variable Cost per unit remain unchanged in those years. iv. P/V Ratio changes either due to a change in the Selling Price per unit or Variable Cost per unit or both. v. Use different formulae of P/V Ratio when you are asked to calculate the Fixed Cost, BE sales (BES), profit at a given sales, sales required to earn a given profit and so on.

The Variable Cost per unit is Rs. 15 and Fixed Cost is Rs. 3,00,000. The company fixes its Selling Price to fetch a profit of 25% on cost. i. What is the BEP (in units)? ii. What is the P/V Ratio? [B. Com. (Hons), Kalyani University—2009] Solution

Add:

Variable Cost for Budgeted Production of 1,50,000 units (1,50,000 × Rs. 15) Total Fixed Cost for Budgeted Production of 1,50,000 units Total Cost of Budgeted Production of 1,50,000 units Budgeted Profit (25% on 25,50,000) Selling Price of Budgeted Production of 1,50,000 units

Rs. 22,50,000 3,00,000 25,50,000 6,37,500 31,87,500

∴ Selling Price per unit = Rs. 31,87,500 ÷ 1,50,000 = Rs. 21.25 ∴ Contribution per unit = S − V = Rs. 21.25 − Rs. 15 = Rs. 6.25

Variable Cost per unit Fixed Expenses Selling Price per unit

What should be the Selling Price per unit, if the BEP should be brought down to 6,000 units? [B.B.M., Bangalore University—December 2007] Solution Existing Contribution per unit = S − V = Rs. 10 − Rs. 7.50 = Rs. 2.50 Fixed Cost Rs. 27,000 ∴ Existing BEP in units = = = 10,800 units Contribution per unit Rs. 2.50

Now, if the BEP is brought down to 6,000 units, then Total Variable Cost at new BEP (6,000 × Rs. 7.50) = Rs. 45,000 Total Fixed Cost at new BEP (same as before) = Rs. 27,000 Total Cost at new BEP = Rs. 72,000 Again, at BEP, Total Sales = Total Cost ∴ Total Sales at new BEP = Total Cost at new BEP = Rs. 72,000 ∴ New Selling Price per unit = Rs. 72,000 ÷ 6,000 = Rs. 12 Problem 7 Selling Price per unit = Rs. 100 Variable Cost per unit = Rs. 60 Total Fixed Cost = Rs. 40,000 Calculate: i.

Add:

Rs. 2,00,000 37,000 2,37,000 2,00,000 4,37,000

∴ Selling Price per unit under monopoly condition = Rs. 4,37,000 ÷ 2,000 = Rs. 218.50 Under competitive condition: Total Variable Cost (10,000 × Rs. 100) Total Fixed Cost Total Cost Target Profit Total Sales

Add:

Rs. 10,00,000 37,000 10,37,000 2,00,000 12,37,000

∴ Selling Price per unit under competitive condition = Rs. 12,37,000 ÷ 10,000 = Rs. 123.70 Problem 9 Alpha Ltd furnished the following information: Selling Price—Rs. 10 per unit Variable Cost—Rs. 6 per unit It is expected that Variable Cost will increase by 20%. What will be the Selling Price per unit if the company wishes to maintain the same P/V Ratio. [B.Com. (Hons), Calcutta University—2004] Solution Present P/ V Ratio =

S−V 10 − 6 × 100 = × 100 = 40% S 10

It is expected that: Variable Cost (V) per unit = Rs. 6 + (20% of Rs. 6) = Rs. 7.20, and P/V Ratio = 40%. Then New Selling Price (S) per unit = ? S−V Now P/ V Ratio = × 100 S S − 7.20 40 = × 100 or S 40 ÷ 100 = S − 7.20 or S or 0.40 S = S – 7.20 or S − 0.40 S = 7.20 or 0.60 S = 7.20 7.20 ∴ S= = 12 0.60 ∴ New Selling Price per unit will be Rs. 12 so as to maintain the present P/V Ratio

Fixed Cost × 100 BEPS

Here, P/V Ratio =

4,000 × 100 10,000

∴ P/V Ratio = 40% ii. We know that P/V Ratio = F + P × 100 S 4,000 + P Here, 40 = × 100 20,000 or 4,000 + P = 8,000 or P = 8,000 − 4,000 ∴ Required Profit = Rs. 4,000 iii. We know, P/V Ratio =

C × 100 S

Here, P/V Ratio = 40% ∴ If Sales (S) = 100, then Contribution (C) = 40 ∴ Variable Cost (V) = S − C = 100 − 40 = 60 [As S = C + V, then V = S − C] Now, if the Selling Price is reduced by 20%, then New Selling Price = 100 − (20% of 100) = 80 Less: Variable Cost = 60 [As Variable Cost is not changing] New Contribution = 20 New Contribution 20 × 100 = × 100 = 25% New Sales 80 Fixed Cost ∴ New BEPS = × 100 [as Fixed Cost does not change] New P/ V Ratio

∴ New P/ V Ratio =

Find out: MS at Actual Sales. BEPS. Profit at Actual Sales. Fixed Cost.

Solution i. Here, MS = 40% It means, if Actual Sales = 100, then MS = 40 Actual Sales = Rs. 5,00,000 ∴ MS = 40% of Rs. 5,00,000 = Rs. 2,00,000 ii. Again, if Actual Sales = 100, then MS = 40 Now, BEPS = Actual Sales − MS ∴ BEPS = 100 – 40 = 60% ∴ BES = 60% of Actual Sales = 60% of Rs. 5,00,000 = Rs. 3,00,000 iii. Here, MS = Rs. 2,00,000, and P/V Ratio = 50% C ⎡ ⎤ ∴ Contribution at MS = 50% of Rs. 2,00,000 = Rs. 1,00,000 ⎢∵ P/V Ratio = × 100⎥ S ⎣ ⎦ Again, Contribution at MS = Profit ∴ Profit at Actual Sales = Rs. 1,00,000 iv. BEPS = Rs. 3,00,000, and P/V Ratio = 50% Then, F = ? We know, at BEP: F P/V Ratio = × 100 BEPS F or 50 = × 100 3,00,000 (3,00,000 × 50) or F = 100 ∴ Fixed Cost = Rs. 1,50,000 Problem 12 A Ltd maintains an MS of 37.5% with an overall Contribution–Sales ratio of 40%.

Solution i. Here, the overall Contribution–Sales Ratio (i.e., P/V Ratio) = 40%, and Fixed Cost = Rs. 5,00,000 F 5,00,000 ∴ BES = × 100 = × 100 = Rs. 12,50,000 P/V ratio 40 ii. Here, MS = 37.5%. It means that if the Total Sales = 100, then MS = 37.50 ∴ BEPS = Total Sales − MS = 100 − 37.50 = 62.50 Here, BEPS [as computed in (a) above] = Rs. 12,50,000 ∴ Total Sales = 100 ÷ 62.50 = Rs. 12,50,000 = Rs. 20,00,000 C × 100 = 40% S It means that if Sales = 100, then Contribution = 40 ∴ Variable Cost = S − C = 100 − 40 = 60 [As C = S − V] Here, Total Sales = Rs. 20,00,000 60 ∴ Total Variable Cost = × 20,00,000 = Rs. 12,00,000 100

Existing Variable Cost per unit = Rs. 96,000 ÷ 10,000 units = Rs. 9.60 As not otherwise stated in this regard, New Variable Cost per unit = Rs. 9.60 As Selling Price per unit is reduced by Re. 1, S−V 15 − 9.60 ∴ New P/ V Ratio = × 100 = × 100 = 36% S 15 Again, we know F+P P/V Ratio = × 100 S 48,000 + 60,000 Here, 36 = × 100 S 1,08,000 or S = × 100 36 ∴ Sales = Rs. 3,00,000 ∴ Required sales to earn a profit of Rs. 60,000 = Rs. 3,00,000 Problem 20 Rainbow Ltd sold goods for Rs. 30,00,000 in a year.

Note P/V Ratio remains the same as it was, because neither the Selling Price per unit nor the Variable Cost per unit changes. ∴ In this case also, P/V Ratio = 80% iii. In this case, the Selling Price per unit decreases by 10%. Consequently, P/V Ratio will be changed and now new P/V Ratio is to be computed. ∴ New Total Selling Price = Rs. 30,00,000 – 10% of Rs. 30,00,000 = Rs. 27,00,000 New Total Fixed Cost = Rs. 8,00,000 + Rs. 1,00,000 = Rs. 9,00,000 S−V × 100 S 27,00,000 − 6,00,000 or New P/ V Ratio = × 100 27,00,000 ∴ New P/V Ratio = 77.7777% ∴ New P/ V Ratio =

Note As the number of units produced remains the same and Variable Cost per unit also remains the same, the Total Variable Cost also remains the same, that is, Rs. 6,00,000.

Here, for the first half-year: 4,50,000 + 3,00,000 P/V Ratio = × 100 = 50% 15,00,000 F 4,50,000 Then, BEP in value = × 100 = × 100 = Rs. 9,00,000 P/V ratio 50 ∴ MS = Total Sales − BEPS = Rs. 15,00,000 − Rs. 9,00,000 = Rs. 6,00,000 ii. P/V Ratio =

Total Sales for the whole year = Rs. 15,00,000 + Rs. 6,00,000 = Rs. 21,00,000 Total Fixed Cost for the whole year = Rs. 4,50,000 + Rs. 4,50,000 = Rs. 9,00,000 P/V Ratio remains constant throughout the year as there is no change either in the Selling Price per unit or in the Variable Cost per unit during both the half-years. ∴ BEP for the whole year =

F 9,00,000 × 100 = × 100 = Rs. 18,00,000 P/V ratio 50

∴ MS for the whole year = Total Sales for the whole year − BEPS for the whole year = Rs. 21,00,000 − Rs. 18,00,000 = Rs. 6,00,000 Problem 22 A company earned a profit of Rs. 30,000 during the year 1994–95.

(Hons), Delhi University] Solution C × 100 S Existing P/V Ratio = 40% i.e., If Selling Price (S) = 100, then Contribution (C) = 40 Again, S − C = V [as C = S − V] ∴ Existing Variable Cost (V) = 100 − 40 = 60 P/V Ratio =

i. Now, if there is a reduction in the Selling Price by 10%, then: New Selling Price (S) = 100 – (10% of 100) = 90 New Variable Cost (V) (remains same) = 60 New Contribution (C) = 30 Now, in order to maintain the existing contribution of 40 under the changed scenario, the Sales Volume must be increased as the Variable Cost also remains the same. 40 × 90 = 120 30 ∴ Increase in Sales Volume required = 120 − 90 = 30 ∴ % increase in Sales Volume required to Increase in Sales Volume = × 100 offset the 10% reduction in the Selling Price Original Sales Volume under the changed scenario ∴ New Sales Volume =

30 × 100 = 33.33% 90

ii. Now, if there is a reduction in the Selling Price by 20%, then, New Selling Price (S) = 100 − (20% of 100) = 80 New Variable Cost (V) (remains same) = 60 New Contribution (C) = 20 Now, in order to maintain the existing contribution of 40 under the changed scenario, the sales volume must be increased as the Variable Cost also remains the same. 40 ∴ New Sales Volume = × 80 = 160 20 ∴ Increase in Sales Volume required = 160 − 80 = 80

Problem 26 A company manufactures a single product having a Marginal Cost of Re. 0.75 a unit. Fixed Costs are Rs. 12,000. The market is such that up to 40,000 units can be sold at Rs. 1.50 a unit, but any additional sales must be made at Re. 1 a unit only. There is a planned profit of Rs. 20,000. How many units to be made and sold? [B.Com. (Hons), Delhi University]

Solution Firstly, let us see to what extent of the planned profit can be achieved by sale of the first 40,000 units. Contribution per unit from the sale of first 40,000 units of output = S − V = Rs. 1.50 − Re. 0.75 = Re. 0.75 F+P We know that sales (in units) = Contribution per unit ∴ For sale of 40,000 units: 40,000 = (12,000 + P) ÷ 0.75 or 12,000 + P = 30,000 ∴ P = 18,000 ∴ Out of the total planned profit of Rs. 20,000, a profit of Rs. 18,000 is earned from the sale of first 40,000 units. ∴ Balance of the planned profit, i.e., Rs. 20,000 − Rs. 18,000 = Rs. 2,000, which is to be earned from the additional sales over 40,000 units. As the Fixed Cost of Rs. 12,000 has already been covered from the sale of first 40,000 units, the contribution received (i.e., Sales − Variable Cost) from the additional sales over 40,000 units is equal to profit. Again, the contribution per unit from the additional sales over 40,000 units = Re. 1 − Re. 0.75 = Re. 0.25, and the total contribution required from the additional sales over 40,000 units = Rs. 2,000 ∴ Additional sales required to earn the Total Contribution = balance of Rs. 2,000 of the planned profit Contribution per unit Rs. 2,000 = = 8,000 units Re. 0.25 ∴ Total number of units to be made and sold to earn a planned profit of Rs. 20,000 = 40,000 + 8,000 = 48,000 units. Problem 27 The ratio of Variable Cost to sales is 70%. The BEP occurs at 60% of the capacity sales. Find the capacity sales when the Fixed Costs are Rs. 90,000. Also compute the profit at 75% of the capacity. [C.A. (Inter)—Adapted] Solution Variable Cost = 70% = 70/100 Sales ∴ If the Sales (S) = 100, then the Variable Cost (V) = 70 Therefore, the Contribution (C) = Sales – Variable Cost = 100 – 70 = 30

i. Here, given Variable Cost to sales =

∴ P/ V Ratio =

C 30 × 100 = × 100 = 30% S 100

Again we know, at BEP, F × 100 [∵ At BEP, C = F] BEPS 90,000 Here, 30 = × 100 [∵ The given Fixed Cost = Rs. 90,000] BEPS 90,000 ∴ BEPS = × 100 = Rs. 3,00,000 30 Again, it is given in the problem that 60% of the Capacity Sales = BEPS ∴ 60% of Capacity Sales = BEPS = Rs. 3,00,000 If 60% of the Capacity Sales = Rs. 3,00,000, then Full Capacity Sales = 3,00,000 × 100 ÷ 60 = Rs. 5,00,000 P/V Ratio =

ii. Sales at 75% of capacity = 75% of Rs. 5,00,000 = Rs. 3,75,000 Again, we know, Sales (S) = Fixed Cost (F) + Variable Cost (V) + Profit (P) ∴P=S–F–V Here, Profit = 3,75,000 – 90,000 – (70% of 3,75,000) [∵ the given Variable Cost = 75% of Sales and Fixed Cost = Rs. 90,000] or Profit = 3,75,000 – 90,000 – 2,62,500 ∴ Profit at 75% of the capacity = Rs. 22,500

Problem 34 A company sells its products at Rs. 15 per unit. In a period, if it produces and sells 8,000 units, it incurs a loss of Rs. 5 per unit. If the volume is raised to 20,000 units, it earns a profit of Rs. 4 per unit. Calculate BEP, both in terms of rupees as well as units. [C.A. (Inter)—November 1996] Solution Sales Volume 20,000 units 8,000 units

We know that P/V Ratio =

Sales Value (Rs.) 20,000 units × Rs. 15 = Rs. 3,00,000 8,000 units × Rs. 15 = Rs. 1,20,000 Change in Sales Value = Rs. 1,80,000

Profit/ Loss (Rs.) 20,000 units × Rs. 4 = Rs. 80,000 8,000 units × Rs. 5 = Rs. 40,000 Change in Profit = Rs. 1,20,000

Change in Profit 1,20,000 × 100 = × 100 = 66.6666% Change in Sales 1,80,000

Now, when 20,000 units are sold out, then F+P P/V Ratio = × 100 S [ ∵ At 20,000 units of sale, the Total Profit = Rs. 80,000 F + 80,000 or 66.6666 = × 100 and Sales Value = Rs. 3,00,000] 3,00,000 30,000 × 66.6666 100 ∴ F = 2,00,000 – 80,000 = Rs. 1,20,000 Again we know that at BEP, F P/V Ratio = × 100 BEPS 1,20,000 ∴ 66.6666 = × 100 BEPS ∴ BEPS (in rupees) = Rs. 1,80,000 Rs.1,80,000 ∴ BEPS (in units) = = 12,000 units Rs. 15 or F + 80,000 =

How many units of A and B would be sold at the BEP? iii. If MS is 40% of sales, find the Fixed Cost when profit is Rs. 20,000. [I.C.W.A. (Inter)—Adapted] Solution i. Rs. Total Cost at 4,000 units = 4,000 units × Rs. 3.50 Total Cost at 3,000 units = 3,000 units × Rs. 4.00 Increase in output = 1,000 units

∴ Variable Cost per unit =

N & Co. 10,000 units Rs. 36,000 Rs. 24,000

Find out: i. BEP units of each company. ii. Level of sales (in units) at which both the companies earn an equal profit or incur an equal loss.

Solution i. Total Contribution at the Present Level of Production (F + P) No. of Units Presently Produced & Sold ∴ Contribution per unit ⎛ ⎞ F ∴BEPS in units ⎜ ⎝ Contribution per unit ⎟⎠

M & Co. 40,000 + 40,000 = Rs. 80,000

N & Co. 36,000 + 24,000 = Rs. 60,000

10,000 units Rs. 80,000 ÷ 10,000 = Rs. 8

10,000 units Rs. 60,000 ÷ 10,000 = Rs. 6

Rs. 40,000 ÷ Rs. 8 = 5,000 units Rs. 36,000 ÷ Rs. 6 = 6,000 units

ii. Level of sales (in units) at which both the companies earn an equal profit or incur an equal loss Difference in the Fixed Cost = Difference in the Contribution per unit Here, the level of sales (in units) at which both the companies can earn an equal profit or incur an equal loss Rs. 40,000 − Rs.36,000 4,000 = = = 2,000 units Rs. 8 − Rs. 6 2 As the BEP of both the companies is higher than the above 2,000 units, it is concluded that at this 2,000 units of sales, both the companies incur an equal loss.

There has been substantial savings in the Fixed Cost in the year 2008–09 due to the restructuring process. The company could maintain its sales-quantity level of 2007–08 in the year 2008–09 by reducing the Selling Price. You are required to calculate the following: i. Sales for 2008–09 in rupees. ii. BES for 2008–09 in rupees. iii. Fixed Cost for 2008–09. Solution C S−V × 100 = × 100 S S Now, in 2007–08, 8,00,000 − V 50 = × 100 8,00,000 50 × 8,00,000 or = 8,00,000 − V 100 or 4,00,000 = 8,00,000 − V or V = 8,00,000 − 4,00,000 = 4,00,000 ∴ Total Variable Cost in 2007–08 = Rs. 4,00,000

i. P/V Ratio =

Here, the sales quantity in both the given years is the same. Nothing is specifically stated in the problem regarding the change in the Variable Cost in 2 years. Hence, it may be presumed that the Variable Cost per unit in both the years remains unchanged. As the sales quantity and Variable Cost per unit for both the years are the same, therefore, the total Variable Cost in the both the years is the same. ∴ Total Variable Cost in 2008–09 = Rs. 4,00,000 Now, in 2008–09, S−V × 100 S S − 4,00,000 or 37.5 = × 100 S 37.5 × S or = S − 4,00,000 100 or 0.375S = S − 4,00,000 or S − 0.375S = 4,00,000 or 0.625S = 4,00,000. ∴ S = 4,00,000 ÷ 0.625 = 6,40,000 ∴ Sales for 2008–09 = Rs. 6,40,000 P/V Ratio =

ii. In 2008–09, MS = 21.875% (on sales) ∴ BEPS = Total sales − MS = 100 − 21.875 = 78.125% (of sales) ∴ BEPS = 78.125% of Rs. 6,40,000 = Rs. 5,00,000 Fixed Cost × 100 BEPS F Now, in 2008 −09, 37.5 = × 100 5,00,000

Problem 40 A pharmaceutical company produces formulations having a shelf life of 1 year. The company has an opening stock of 30,000 boxes on 1 January 2005 and is expected to produce 1,30,000 boxes as was in the just-ended year of 2004. The expected sale would be 1,50,000 boxes. The costing department has worked out an escalation in the cost by 25% on the Variable Cost and 10% on the Fixed Cost. While the Fixed Cost for the year 2004 is Rs. 40 per unit, the new price announced for 2005 is Rs. 100 per box. The Variable Cost on opening stock is Rs. 40 per box. You are required to compute the BE volume for the year 2005. [C.A. (PE-II)—November 2005] Solution

Less:

Selling Price per unit Variable Cost per unit (Rs. 40 + 25% of Rs. 40) Contribution per unit Total Fixed Cost

Opening Stock (i.e., from Production of 2004)

Production for 2005

Rs. 100 40 60 1,30,000 × Rs. 40 = Rs. 52,00,000

Rs. 100 50 50 Rs. 52,00,000 + 10% of Rs. 52,00,000 = Rs. 57,20,000

Now, BEPS for 2005 (in volume) = Opening Stock units + = 30,000 units +

Total Fixed Cost in 2005 − Contribution from Opening Stock Contribution per unit in 2005

Rs. 57,20,000 − 30,000 × Rs. 60 Rs. 50

= 30,000 units + 78,400 units = 1,08,400 units ∴ BEPS for 2005 (in value) = Value of Opening Stock of 30,000 units + Value of 78,400 units produced in 2005 = (30,000 × Rs. 100) + (78,400 × Rs. 100) = Rs. 1,08,40,000 Problem 41 K1 and K2 are two similar plants under the same management who want them to be merged for better operation.

Find out: i. BEPS of the merged plant and capacity utilization for achieving BEPS. ii. Profitability of the merged plant at 80% capacity. iii. Sales of the merged plant to earn a profit of Rs. 1,00,000. Solution As plants K1 and K2 are presently operating at different capacities, let us firstly convert them into a 100% capacity and thereafter they can be merged. K1 Rs. 6,30,000 × 100 ÷ 90 = 7,00,000 3,60,000 × 100 ÷ 90 = 4,00,000 3,00,000 1,20,000

Contribution of Merged Plant × 100 Sales of Merged Plant

5,00,000 × 100 = 38.4615% 13,00,000

i. We know that at BEP, Fixed Cost P/V Ratio = × 100 BEPS ∴ In case of Merged Plant, 2,00,000 38.4615 = × 100 BEPS 2,00,000 or BEPS = × 100 38.4615 ∴ BEPS of the Merged Plant = Rs. 5,20,000 ∴ Capacity Utilization of the Merged Plant at BEPS =

Add:

Rs. 40.00 0.10 40.10 50.00 9.90

We know that Contribution at MS = Profit ∴ Annual income (i.e., profit) at a sales level of 20,000 units = 20,000 units × Rs. 9.90 = Rs. 1,98,000 Problem 43 A company manufactures a product, currently utilizing 80% capacity with a turnover of Rs. 8,00,000 at Rs. 25 per unit. The cost data are as follows: Material Cost is Rs. 7.50 per unit, Labour Cost is Rs. 6.25 per unit, Semi-Variable Cost (including the Variable Cost of Rs. 3.75 per unit) is Rs. 1,80,000.

∴ Required Sales Value = Rs. 6,81,818 ∴ Required number of units to be sold to earn a net income of 8% of sales = Rs. 6,81,818 ÷ Rs. 25 = 27,273 units (approx.) iii. As the profit of Rs. 95,000 is higher than the existing profit, this amount of profit will be achieved by operating beyond the mentioned 80% capacity. ∴ New Fixed Cost = Existing Fixed Cost + Rs. 20,000 = Rs. 1,50,000 + Rs. 20,000 = Rs. 1,70,000 F+P 1,70,000 + 95,000 ∴ Required Sales = = = 35,333 units Contribution per unit 7.50 ∴ Activity level needed to earn a profit of Rs. 95,000 =

Rs. 2,80,000 1,50,000 4,30,000

As it is the BEP, therefore, here, Total Cost = Total Sales = Rs. 4,30,000 ∴ Selling Price per unit = Rs. 4,30,000 ÷ 16,000 units = Rs. 26.875

Problem 44 A company producing a single product sells it at Rs. 50 per unit. The unit Variable Cost is Rs. 35 and Fixed Cost amounts to Rs. 12 lakhs per annum. With this data, you are required to calculate the following, treating each as independent of the other: i. ii. iii. iv.

P/V Ratio and BES. New BES, if the Variable Cost increases by Rs. 3 per unit, without any increase in the Selling Price. Increase in the sales required if profits are to be increased by Rs. 2.4 lakhs. Percentage increase/decrease in the sales volume units to offset: a. An increase of Rs. 3 in the Variable Cost per unit. b. A 10% increase in the Selling Price without affecting the existing profit quantum. v.

iii. Profits to be increased by Rs. 2.4 lakhs (over the existing situation). This is a level after achieving BEP (i.e., MS). At this level, Contribution = Profit. ∴ New contribution required = Rs. 2.4 lakhs Again, Existing P/V Ratio = 30% ∴ Increase in sales required to increase the profits by Rs. 2.4 lakhs = (2,40,000 / 30) × 100 = Rs. 8 lakhs iv. New Variable Cost per unit = Rs. 35 + Rs. 3 = Rs. 38 ∴ New Contribution per unit = Rs. 50 – Rs. 38 = Rs. 12 C 12 ∴ New P/V Ratio = × 100 = × 100 = 24% S 50

CHAPTER REVIEW SUMMARY  Marginal Cost is the additional cost incurred for an increase in one additional unit of output. It is nothing but the Variable Cost.  Marginal Costing is the method of ascertaining Marginal Cost and it evaluates the effect of Fixed and Variable Costs on profit due to a change in the volume of production.  Distinguished features of Marginal Costing are as follows: (a) Only Variable Costs are charged to the cost unit. Fixed Costs are recovered from contribution; (b) All costs including semi-variable costs are divided into two parts—fixed and variable; (c) Closing inventories are valued at Variable Cost only; and (d) BE Analysis and CVP Analysis are integral parts of this costing technique.  Marginal Costing Technique has many advantages, such as: (a) It provides useful data for managerial Decision Making; (b) It is a very effective tool of profit planning; (c) It facilitates control over Variable Costs by avoidance of arbitrary apportionment or allocation of Fixed Costs; (d) Problems on computation of accurate Fixed Factory Overhead Rate can be avoided as fixed overheads are charged against the contribution; and (e) It provides the management with many useful techniques for a Decision Making like BE Analysis.  Limitations of Marginal Costing are: (a) It assumes that the semi-variable costs can be segregated into two parts —fixed and variable elements. In practice, however, such segregation of semi-variable costs is very difficult; (b) It excludes the Fixed Cost for Decision Making, which sometimes may lead to a wrong conclusion;

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

(c) It fails to reflect the impact of increased Fixed Costs due to the development of technology on Production Cost; and (d) Variable-Cost Technique cannot be successfully applied in ‘cost-plus contract.’ CVP Analysis examines the relationship of costs and profit to the volume of production to maximize the profit of the firm. It is the method of studying the relationship between the cost, volume of production, sales and their impact on profit. CVP Analysis is a logical extension of Marginal Costing and is used as a very powerful tool by the management in the process of budgeting and profit planning. Objectives of CVP Analysis are: (a) It helps to forecast profit fairly and accurately; (b) It acts as an effective tool of profit planning to the management; (c) It helps in ascertaining the BEP of the product produced and sold; (d) It is very much useful in setting up the flexible budget; (e) It assists the management in the process of performance evaluation for the purpose of control; and (f) It helps in formulating the price policies by projecting the effect of different price structures on costs and profits. Underlying assumptions of CVP Analysis are: (a) Total Cost consists of two components—Fixed Cost and Variable Cost; (b) Selling Price per unit remains constant at different volumes of sales; (c) Only one product is sold by the concern; or, if it sells multiple products, then the sales mix remains constant at different volumes of sales; and (d) Volume of production is equal to the sales volume. In CVP Analysis, costs are classified into two parts—Fixed Cost and Variable Cost. Semi-Variable Cost is not separately recognized in CVP Analysis. Fixed portion of the Semi-Variable Cost is clubbed with the Fixed Cost and its variable portion is clubbed with the Variable Cost. Elements of CVP Analysis are: (a) Marginal Cost equation; (b) Contribution; (c) P/V Ratio; (d) BEP; and (e) MS. Marginal Cost Equation exhibits the relationship between Contribution, Fixed Cost and Profit. It explains that the excess of sales over the Variable Cost is the contribution towards the Fixed Cost and profit, that is, S − V = F + P. Contribution is the excess of sales over Variable Cost, that is, C = S – V. This contribution is available towards Fixed Cost and profit, that is, C = F + P. Profit–Volume ratio (P/V Ratio) is the ratio of contribution and sales. It is generally expressed in percentage. It exhibits a percentage of contribution included in sales, that is, P/V Ratio = C/S × 100. It indicates the effect on profit for a given change in sales. Break-Even Point (BEP) is that level of sales where there is no profit or no loss. At BEP, the total sales revenue is equal to the Total Cost. If there are any sales above this BEP, a concern earns profit; whereas any sales below this BEP, the concern suffers loss. At BEP, the total Fixed Cost and Variable Cost up to that level of sales have been recovered from the sales. Generally, at any other point of sales, the contribution from sales is available towards the Fixed Cost and profit. But as there is no profit or loss at BEP, contribution from sales at BEP is available towards the Fixed Cost only, that is, at BEP, C = F. Margin of Safety (MS) is the level of sales made above the BEP. In other words, MS is the excess of actual sales over BEPS. Generally, at any point of sales, the contribution from sales is available towards the Fixed Cost and profit. But as the total Fixed Cost has already been recovered at BEP, the contribution from sales at MS is available towards profit only, that is, at MS, C = P. CVP Analysis is popularly known as BE Analysis, although there exists a narrow difference between these two terms. CVP Analysis refers to the study of the effect on the profit due to changes in the cost and volume of output, whereas BE Analysis refers to the study of determination of that level of activity where the total sales is equal to the Total Cost and also the study of determination of profit at any level of activity. However, the technique of BE Analysis is so popular for studying CVP Analysis that these two terms are generally used synonymously. Break-Even Chart (BE Chart) is the graphical representation of BE Analysis. It depicts the relationship between costs, sales and profits. BE chart graphically shows the profit or loss at various levels of activity and also shows the level of activity where there is no profit no loss (i.e., Total Cost equals total sales). Angle of Incidence is the angle formed by the intersection of sales line and Total Cost line at BEP in the BE chart. This angle exhibits the rate at which profits are being earned by a concern after reaching the BEP. It shows the profit-earning capacity of a concern. Wider angle of incidence exhibits higher profit-earning capacity of the concern or vice-versa.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES On completion of the study of the chapter, you should be able to understand: What is Decision Making? Steps in Decision Making. Different cost concepts in Decision Making. Concept of Relevant Cost and Relevant Revenue in Decision Making. Concept of Differential Cost. Comparison of Differential Cost Analysis and Marginal Costing. Concept of key or limiting factor in Decision Making. Mostly occurred situations of Decision Making.

11.1 CONCEPT OF DECISION MAKING Decision Making is one of the most important functions of the management. Success of business planning highly depends on the Decision Making capacity of the management. Decision Making means the process of choosing the best one among the various alternative actions. For any business planning and control, the management is engaged in search of the most appropriate course of action. Among the various alternatives feasible to the management, it has to choose the best one from the point of view of the business concern. However, choosing the best alternative among the various options requires an evaluation of all feasible alternatives for which relevant quantitative and qualitative information are essentially available to the management. On the basis of these information, the management takes a decision on the concerned issue which deals with the future. Such decision should also affect the cost and other business factors. 11.2 STEPS IN DECISION MAKING For appropriate and effective Decision Making, the following steps are to be essentially considered: i. Clearly defining the concerned problem. ii. Identifying and describing the available alternatives. iii. Evaluating the Relevant Cost and revenue (i.e., the quantitative factors). iv. Evaluating the non-cost factors (i.e., qualitative factors). v. Selecting the best one among the identified various alternatives. vi. Evaluating the performance of the decision and providing feedback. 11.3 COST CONCEPTS IN DECISION MAKING There are certain concepts of cost which are used in the process of cost analysis for Decision Making, which are discussed as follows: i. Marginal Cost: Marginal Cost is the Variable Cost of producing a product. It includes direct and indirect Variable Costs (i.e., prime cost and overheads) incurred for the product, but it does not include

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

any Fixed Cost. While determining the cost of a product under Marginal Cost technique, only the Variable Costs incurred for the product are taken into consideration and Fixed Costs are ignored. ii. Differential Cost: Differential Cost refers to the difference in the cost between various alternative courses of action. More clearly, it means changes in costs due to a change in the output level, a change in the sales volume, a change in the product/sales mix, the make or buy decision, an alternative method of production and so on. In case of such change in cost due to a change in the output level, the change in cost due to an increase in the output level is called ‘incremental cost’ and the change in cost due to a decrease in the output level is called ‘decremental cost’. Both incremental as well as decremental costs are called ‘Differential Cost.’ For achieving business objectives to maximize the profit (or minimize the loss), the management should evaluate these Differential Costs with the differential revenues of the identified various alternatives to choose the best alternative which will provide the maximum return to the business. Most of the time, Differential Costs are considered by the management in the course of Decision Making. Illustration

Say, the company is presently manufacturing 20,000 units of a component for its product at an unit cost of Rs. 10. If the company buys the component from the market, it would cost Rs. 8 per unit. Therefore, in this case, there would be a Differential Cost of Rs. 40,000 (i.e., Rs. 2,00,000−Rs. 1,60,000) by way of decrease in the cost if the company decides to buy the component from the market instead of manufacturing the same. This decrease in the cost by Rs. 40,000 would ultimately increase the profit of the company by Rs. 40,000. Sunk Cost: Sunk cost is caused due to a complete abandonment of a plant. It is equivalent to the written-down value of the plant abandoned less its salvage value. It is a historical cost incurred in the past and is an irrecoverable cost too. Sunk costs are not affected due to a change in the production volume. Out of Pocket Cost: It is that portion of the cost incurred for which payment was made to outsiders. Out of pocket cost represents the cost which involves payment to outsiders, for example, purchases of materials, payment of wages, overheads and so on. It does not include those costs for which the payment was not made to outsiders, for example, depreciation and so on. Opportunity Cost: Opportunity cost is nothing but the cost involved for the next best alternative foregone. More clearly, it represents the maximum possible income lost for not choosing the next best alternative course of action. It is the net cash flow that could be earned if the resource had been used in its most desirable alternative. It is the measure of the benefit of opportunity foregone. Opportunity costs are not real recorded costs in accounting. Imputed Cost: Imputed costs are those costs which are notionally considered as cost, but do not involve any cash outlay. These costs are not actually paid, but charged notionally in the accounts as cost, for example, the interest on capital for which actually no interest has been paid, notional rent charged on the business premises owned by the proprietor and so on. That is why imputed cost is also called ‘notional cost.’ Replacement Cost: It is the current cost of replacing the old asset with a new asset of identical nature. It represents the current market price of the replaced plant of an identical nature in place of the old plant.

11.4 CONCEPT OF RELEVANT COST AND RELEVANT REVENUE In the process of Decision Making, the management should consider the Relevant Costs and Relevant Revenues only and not the costs and revenues which are irrelevant for Decision Making. A cost (or revenue) that is essentially important and relevant to a Decision Making process is called Relevant Cost (or Relevant Revenue). Relevant Costs and revenues are those expected future costs and future revenues which differ under alternative courses of action being considered in Decision Making process. Relevant Costs (or revenues) are pertinent costs (or revenues) as they guide the management for an effective Decision Making. All costs and revenues, such

as sunk cost, absorbed Fixed Cost and so on, are not relevant for Decision Making. Only Relevant Costs and revenues are taken into consideration for Decision Making. Marginal Cost, Differential Cost, opportunity cost, replacement cost, Out of pocket cost and so on are the examples of Relevant Cost. Relevant Costs and revenues posses the following features: i. These costs and revenues must relate to the future. ii. They must differ under alternative courses of action. 11.5 COMPARISON OF DIFFERENTIAL COST ANALYSIS AND MARGINAL COSTING Although Differential Cost Analysis is often confused with Marginal Costing, they are not synonymous. Differential Cost Analysis has some similarities and some dissimilarities as well with Marginal Costing. A comparative analysis between Differential Cost Analysis and Marginal Costing is done as follows: Similarities i. Both Differential Costing as well as Marginal Costing are techniques of cost analysis. ii. Both the techniques are used by the management in its process of Decision Making. iii. Both the techniques are based on the classification of costs into Fixed Cost and Variable Cost. When there is no change in the Fixed Cost due to a change in the volume of production or sales, Differential Cost becomes equal to the Marginal Cost. Dissimilarities i. In Marginal Costing, Profit–Volume Ratio (P/V Ratio), contribution margin, contribution per unit of limiting factor and so on are the main parameters for evaluation of performance and Decision Making. On the other hand, in the Differential Cost Analysis, Differential Costs are compared with differential revenues to select the best alternative in the process of Decision Making. ii. Marginal Costing excludes all Fixed Costs from its analysis, whereas Differential Cost Analysis includes all identifiable Fixed Costs. iii. Marginal Cost may be incorporated into the system of accounting, whereas Differential Costs are separately calculated as an aid to the management for a Decision Making purpose. 11.6 CONCEPT OF KEY OR LIMITING FACTOR A key or limiting factor is a factor which limits or restricts the production or sales level at a point of time due to scarcity of a factor of production. That is why the key or limiting factor is also termed as ‘scarce factor’ or ‘governing factor.’ According to CIMA, United Kingdom, key factor is the factor which, at a particular time or over a period, will limit the activities of an undertaking. The limiting factor is usually the level of demand for the product or services of the undertaking, but it could be a shortage of one of the productive resources, e.g. skilled labour, raw material or machine capacity. Therefore, key factor is a limitation of constraint, such as availability of raw material, labour, machine/ plant capacity, capital, market demand and so on, on the activities of a business. Where a concern produces two or more products, and there exists a key or limiting factor, the decision must be taken by the management as to which product should be produced more so as to utilize the limiting factor in the best possible way for maximizing the profit for the concern. In such a situation, the contribution per unit of the limiting factor should be the criterion to assess the profitability of a product; and accordingly, all the products of the concern are to be taken into consideration for the purpose. The product which gives the highest contribution per unit of the limiting factor should be produced first and the product which gives the next highest contribution per unit of the limiting factor should be produced thereafter, if the balance of the limiting factor permits, and so on.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Illustration Say, a company produces three products X, Y and Z. The company has a limiting factor of 10,000 labour hours. In such a situation, the company has calculated contribution per labour hour (i.e., per unit of limiting factor) as Rs. 20 for X, Rs. 50 for Y and Rs. 30 for Z. As product Y gives the highest contribution per unit of limiting factor (i.e. labour hour), the company firstly produces 10,000 units of Y using 5,000 labour hours. Thereafter, the company produces 6,000 units of Z using 4,000 labour hours, as product Z gives the next best contribution per unit of the limiting factor. The company lastly produces product X, as it gives the lowest contribution per unit of the limiting factor, using the remaining available 1,000 labour hours (i.e., 10,000− 5,000−4,000 = 1,000 labour hours). Say, per unit of product X requires 2 labour hours. Hence, in such a case, the number of units of product X to be produced = 1,000 hrs/2 hrs = 500 units. 11.7 DIFFERENT SITUATIONS OF DECISION MAKING Decision Making is an action of selecting the best one from different alternatives. Therefore, all decisions are alternate-choice decisions. There are many situations in a business when the management is required to choose the best one from different alternatives. Following are some frequently applicable situations of Decision Making. 11.7.1 Determination of Most Profitable Product/Sales Mix Product/sales mix signifies the mix or proportion in which various products are produced/sold. Most profitable product/sales mix signifies the best mix or proportion in which various products are produced/sold for maximizing the profit. In case where a concern produces and sells two or more products simultaneously, it needs to choose the most profitable product/sales mix among it products for maximizing the profit. Where there is no change in the Fixed Cost due to a change in the product/sales mix, the selection of product/sales mix is done on the basis of contribution per unit of each product. The product having the highest contribution should be produced/sold first (i.e., to be given the first priority) and the product having the lowest contribution should be produced/sold last (i.e., to be given the least priority). The product giving negative contribution should be discontinued unless there are other reasons to continue its production. Where there is a change in the Fixed Cost due to a change in the product/sales mix, selection of product/sales mix is done on the basis of the highest profitability from the mix, that is, the product/sales mix which provides the highest profit should be chosen as the most profitable product/sales mix. 11.7.2 Accept or Reject Decision Whenever a concern receives special orders for supply of its product from its regular or new customers in the home market or in the foreign market, the concern should consider whether acceptance of such offers utilizing its spare production capacity is profitable or not. Generally, such special orders are offered at a price less than the normal selling price. Acceptance or rejection of such special orders is based entirely on the profitability of the concern. As the products against the special order are to be produced utilizing the spare production capacity of the concern, no extra Fixed Cost is normally to be borne by the concern for such special order. Accordingly, if the special order price is more than the Marginal Cost of the product, the concern should accept the special order. In such a case, the contribution represents the profit from the special order. However, any extra cost for the special order, such as special packing cost, freight and insurance charges and so on, is to be deducted from the contribution to arrive at the net profit from the special order. 11.7.3 Make or Buy Decision A concern may manufacture any component for its product by itself or it may buy the component from an outside supplier. Decision to make or buy the component is based entirely on saving in cost by the concern. This saving in cost refers to the saving in the Marginal Cost, as no saving can generally be effected in the Fixed Cost.

DECISION MAKING

707

If the Marginal Cost of producing the component is lower than the selling price of the component offered by the outside supplier, it should be decided to buy the component from the outside supplier. Otherwise, the concern should opt for making the component by itself, if it has the spare production capacity. 11.7.4 Operate or Shut-Down Decision In such a situation, the concern has to take a decision whether it will continue its plant operation in future or it will shut down its plant operation right then. If it is observed that the concern will suffer lesser amount of loss if it shuts down the plant operation right then than the amount of loss that it will suffer if it continues the plant operation, then the decision should be taken in favour of shut-down of the plant operation to minimize the loss. In such a circumstance, the Fixed Costs play the most significant role as a concern has to bear some Fixed Cost even if it shuts down the plant operation. Guidance Notes to Students for Solving Problems Students are advised to go through the language of the problem very carefully and identify the purpose of Decision Making with the key or limiting factor, if any.

The General Manager suggests to reduce the selling price by 5% and expects to achieve an additional volume of 5%. The more intensive manufacturing programme will involve additional costs of Rs. 50,000 for production planning. It will also be necessary to open an additional sales office at the cost of Rs. 1,00,000 per annum. The Sales Manager, on the other hand, suggests to increase the selling price by 10% which, it is estimated, will reduce the sales volume by 10%. At the same time, a saving in the manufacturing overheads and general overheads of Rs. 50,000 and Rs. 1,00,000 per annum, respectively, is expected on this reduced volume.

CONCLUSION From the above comparative analysis of different proposals, it has been observed that the highest profit (i.e., Rs.14,00,000) can be achieved if the proposal of the Sales Manager (i.e., by increasing the selling price by 10% and reducing the volume of sales by 10%) is accepted. Therefore, the proposal of Sales Manager should be accepted. Problem 3 Mr X has Rs. 2,00,000 as the investment in his business firm. He wants a 15% return on his money. From an analysis of the recent cost figures, he finds that his Variable Cost of operating is 60% of the sales, while his Fixed Costs are Rs. 80,000 per year. Show the computation to answer the following questions: i. What sales volume must be obtained to reach the Break-Even Point (BEP)? ii. What sales volume must be obtained to get a 15% return on the investment? iii. Mr X estimates that even if he closed the doors of his business, he would incur Rs. 25,000 as expenses per year. At what sales would he be better off by locking his business up? [C.A. (Inter)—Adapted] Solution i. Let the Selling Price (S) be 100. Then, the Variable Cost (V) = 60% of 100 ∴ Contribution (C) = S − V = 100 − 60 ∴ P/V Ratio = C/S × 100 = 40/100 × 100 Given Fixed Cost (F) ∴ BEP Sales = F/(P/V Ratio) × 100 = 80000/40 × 100 ii. Desired Profit (P) = 15% on Rs. 2,00,000 Now, P/V Ratio = {(F + P)/S} × 100 Here, 40 = {(80,000 + 30,000)/S} × 100 or 40 S = 1,10,000 × 100 ∴ S = (1,10,000 × 100)/40 ∴ Required Sales

Modified Date: Sat, Jun 26, 2010 03:08:44 PM

= 60 = 40 = 40% = Rs. 80,000 = Rs. 2,00,000 = Rs. 30,000

= 2,75,000 = Rs. 2,75,000

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

iii. Fixed Cost to be incurred even if Mr X shuts down his business = Rs. 25,000. To cover this minimum amount of Fixed Cost, the minimum sales needed by Mr X = F/(P/V Ratio) × 100 = 25,000/40 × 100 = Rs. 62,500. ∴ Mr X would be better off by locking his business up at any sales volume more than Rs. 62,500. Problem 4 Alaska Paints, working at a normal capacity, manufactures 4,00,000 tins per year. The cost of manufacturing per tin is as follows: Rs. 15.60 4.20 5.00 8.00 32.80

Consumption of Materials Direct Wages Variable Factory Overheads Fixed Overheads

Variable selling and administrative expenses amount to Rs. 1.25 per tin. Each tin is sold for Rs. 45.00. During the next quarter, only 20,000 tins can be sold. The management plans to shut down the plant estimating that the manufacturing Fixed Costs can be reduced by Rs.1,48,000 for the quarter. While the plant is in operation, fixed overheads are incurred at a uniform rate. You are required to suggest: (a) whether the plant should be shut down at this level; and (b) at what level of activity per quarter, the plant should be shut down. Solution Rs. Variable Cost per tin: Raw Materials Direct Wages Variable Factory Overheads Variable Selling & Administrative Expenses Selling Price per tin Contribution per tin Fixed Overheads for the year (4,00,000 × Rs. 8) ∴ Fixed Overheads for the quarter (Rs. 32,00,000/4) Now, during the next quarter when 2,000 tins can be sold: Contribution from 20,000 tins (20,000 × Rs.18.95) Less: Fixed Overheads for the quarter Possible Loss

15.60 4.20 5.00 1.25 26.05 45.00 18.95 32,00,000 8,00,000 Rs. 3,79,000 8,00,000 4,21,000

i. If the plant operation is shut down, the company has to bear a fixed overhead cost of (Rs. 8,00,000 – 1,48,000) Rs. 6,52,000. Therefore, the shut-down of the plant will result is higher loss than the production of 20,000 units during the next quarter. ii. As the shut-down-point loss is calculated at Rs. 6,52,000, it is advised to the company to down its plant operation when the quarterly contribution falls below (Rs. 8,00,000 – Rs. 6,52,000) Rs. 1,48,000. ∴ The suggested shut-down point of the plant is at a production of (Rs. 1,48,000 ÷ Rs. 18.95) 7,810 tins per quarter.

DECISION MAKING

Problem 5 Your company produces two products P and Q. The relevant data per unit of output are given as follows: P (Rs.) 28.00 15.00 25.00 10.00 14.00 92.00 100.00 8.00

Cost of Direct Material Direct Labour Variable Factory Overheads Fixed Factory Overheads Variable Selling Expenses Total Cost Selling Price Profit

Q (Rs.) 13.00 25.00 12.50 5.00 10.00 65.50 70.00 4.50

Factory overheads are applied on the basis of machine hour. The existing plant and infrastructure will allow production and sale of either P or Q. Both the products are processed through the same production centre. You are required to suggest which product should be processed and sold. Solution Product P Rs. Selling Price Less: Variable Costs: Direct Material Direct Labour Variable Overheads Selling Expenses Contribution per unit Variable Factory Overheads per unit Fixed Factory Overheads per unit Total Factory Overheads per unit

28.00 15.00 25.00 14.00

Rs. 100.00

82.00 18.00 25.00 10.00 35.00

Product Q Rs. Rs. 70.00 13.00 25.00 12.50 10.00

60.50 9.50 12.50 5.00 17.50

Since factory overheads are applied on the basis of machine hours and machine hours are indicative of available infrastructure, as they constitute the key or limiting factor for the products. From the above calculation, it has been observed that the total factory overheads per unit for Product P is nearly double than that of Product Q, This indicates that Product Q requires half the machine hours when compared to Product P (or Product P requires double the machine hours when compared to Product Q). Therefore, the rate of contribution per machine hour from Product P = Rs. 18 × 1 = Rs. 18 and from Product Q = Rs. 9.50 × 2 = Rs. 19 . Therefore, Product Q should be processed and sold as it gives a higher contribution per machine hour than the Product P. Problem 6 Product X takes 20 hours to process on Machine 99. It has a selling price of Rs. 100 and Marginal Cost of Rs. 60. Y (a component part used in production) could be made on Machine 99 in 3 hours for a Marginal Cost of Rs. 5. The supplier’s price is Rs. 10. Should one make or buy Y? Discuss in both situations (i) when Machine 99 is working at full capacity; and (ii) when there is idle capacity. What are other non-cost considerations to be kept in mind in such cases? [B.Com. (Hons.), Delhi University]

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Solution (i) Situation when Machine 99 is working at full capacity When Machine 99 is working at full capacity, the production of Product X is to be curtailed to some extent to produce Component Part Y, as a consequence of which the manufacturer has to bear some loss of contribution from Product X. Now, in the case of production of Product X, Selling Price per unit = Rs. 100 Less: Marginal Cost per unit = Rs. 60 Contribution per unit = Rs. 40 Again, Product X takes 20 hours to produce one unit, that is, time taken to produce 1 unit of Product X = 20 hrs. ∴ Contribution per hour from Product X = Rs. 40/20 hrs = Rs. 2 Now, if Component Part Y is produced in this situation, then Additional cost per unit to be incurred to produce Y = Marginal Cost per unit + Contribution Lost per unit from X = Rs. 5 + (3 hrs × Rs. 2) = Rs. 11 ∴ Additional cost per unit to be incurred for producing Component Y when Machine 99 is working at full capacity = Rs. 11 On the other hand, Component Y can be bought from the market at a cost of Rs. 10 per unit. ∴ One should buy Component part Y as it is cheaper than making when Machine 99 is working at full capacity. (ii) Situation when Machine 99 has idle capacity When Machine 99 remains idle after production of Product X, the question of curtailing the production of Product X for production of Component Part Y does not arise. As a consequence, there will be no loss of contribution from Product X due to production of Component Part Y. In such a situation, the manufacturer has to bear the Marginal Cost only for the production of Component Part Y. As the Marginal Cost per unit for the production of Component Part Y (i.e., Rs. 5) is lower than the supplier’s price (i.e., Rs. 10), it is profitable to make the Component Part Y than to buy it. Other non-cost considerations: i. Expected future market price of Component Y. ii. Availability of Y in the market. iii. Assurance of continuous supply of Y, if it is bought from outside. iv. Assurance of no change in price during the period of agreement, if it is bought from outside. Problem 7 Two firms A & Co. and B & Co. sell the same type of product in the same market.

DECISION MAKING

Required:

i. Calculate at which sales both the firms will earn an equal profit. ii. State which firm is likely to earn greater profit in condition of: a. Heavy demand for the product. b. Low demand for the product. [C.A. (Inter)—November1995] Solution

Less:

Sales Variable Cost

Less:

Fixed Cost

Contribution Profit ∴ P/V Ratio [Contribution/Sales × 100] ∴ BEP Sales [Fixed Cost/P/V ratio × 100]

A & Co. Rs. 5,00,000 4,00,000 1,00,000 30,000 70,000 1,00,000/5,00,000 × 100 = 20% 30,000/20 × 100 = Rs. 1,50,000

B & Co. Rs. 6,00,000 4,00,000 2,00,000 70,000 1,30,000 2,00,000/6,00,000 × 100 = 33.33% 70,000/33.33 × 100 = Rs. 2,10,000

(1) We know that sales at which both the firms = (Difference in Fixed Cost/Difference in P/V Ratio) × 100 earn equal profit = [(Rs. 70,000 − Rs. 30,000)/(33.33 − 20)] × 100 = 40,000/13.33 × 100 = Rs. 3,00,000 (2) i. In case of heavy demand, that company is more profitable which has higher P/V ratio. As there is a heavy demand for the product in the market, BEP sales can be achieved easily. After achieving BEP sales, the total amount of contribution earned is the profit (as at the Margin of safety, Contribution = Profit). Therefore, after achieving BEP sales that company will earn a greater profit whose P/V ratio is higher. Hence, B & Co. will earn a greater profit in case of heavy demand as its P/V ratio is higher than that of A & Co. ii. In case of low demand, that company is more profitable whose BEP is lower. As the demand for the product in the market is very low, the company should try first not to incur any loss. Therefore, the company should try to achieve BEP as soon as possible to avoid any loss. The company having lower BEP will avoid loss at a faster rate than the other company whose BEP is higher. Hence, in this case, A & Co. is more profitable as its BEP is lower than that of B & Co. Problem 8 The cost per unit of the three products A, B and C of a concern are as follows: Particulars Variable Cost Fixed Cost Total Cost Profit Selling Price No. of units Produced

A (Rs.) 20 3 23 9 32 10,000

B (Rs.) 20 3 23 7 30 5,000

C (Rs.) 18 2 20 6 26 8,000

Production arrangements are that if one product is given up, the production of the others can be raised by 50%. The directors propose that C should be given up because the contribution in that case is the lowest. Do you agree? What other non-cost considerations should be kept in mind before taking any decision in such a situation? [B.Com. (Hons), Delhi University—1995]

CONCLUSION The above calculation shows that the overall profit is maximum (i.e., Rs. 2,15,000) when Product B is given up. Therefore, the proposal of directors to give up the production of Product B is not acceptable as it does not yield the maximum overall profit. Non-cost considerations: i. Expected market demand for the Products A, B and C in future. ii. Expected future selling prices of the products. iii. Evaluation of the fact whether the Products A, B and C are complementary to each other in the market. iv. Position of similar competitive products in the market.

DECISION MAKING

Problem 9 A company is operating at 50% capacity producing 2,000 units of output which are totally sold in the domestic market at a price of Rs. 100 per unit. The cost per unit of the product is given as follows: Direct materials Direct Wages Manufacturing Overheads (20% fixed) Administration Overheads (100% fixed) Selling and Distribution Overheads (50% variable) Total Cost

Rs. Per Unit 30 20 10 8 12 80

The company receives an order from the foreign market for 2000 units at a price of Rs. 80 per unit. The additional distribution cost for export is estimated at Rs. 2 per unit. Is the offer of the foreign market accepted by utlizing the spare capacity? Solution The company is presently operating at 50% capacity producing 2000 units for the domestic market. ∴ The company still has the remaining 50% spare capacity to produce additional 2,000 units for the foreign market. If the company accepts the offer of the foreign market, the position will be as follows: Rs. Selling Price per unit Less: Variable Costs per unit: Direct Materials Direct Wages Variable Manufacturing Overheads (80% of Rs. 10) Variable Selling and Distribution Overheads [(50% of Rs. 12) + Rs. 2] Contribution per unit

30 20 8 8

Rs. 80

66 14

If the offer of the foreign market is accepted, then the company earns an additional contribution of Rs. 14 per unit. Currently, the company has been earning a profit of (Rs. 100 – Rs. 80) = Rs. 20 per unit. As at the present situation, the company has an already earned profit, it indicates that the BEP sale has already been achieved by it. As soon as the BEP sale is achieved, the total Fixed Cost and the Variable Cost up to that level of sales have already been covered. Now, if the sales are increased beyond BEP, no additional Fixed Cost is to be incurred, rather only Variable Costs are to be incurred. Therefore, after achieving BEP at any point of sales, Contribution = Profit. Here, as BEP has already been achieved by the company, no additional Fixed Cost to be incurred for producing additional 2000 units for the foreign market and the contribution would be equal to the additional profit. Therefore, by utilizing the remaining 50% spare capacity, if the company produces the additional 2000 units for the foreign market, it will earn an additional profit of (2000 units ∞ Rs. 14) Rs. 28,000. Hence, the offer of the foreign market is acceptable. Problem 10 An umbrella manufacturer makes an average profit of Rs. 2.50 per unit on a selling price of Rs. 14.30 by producing and selling 60,000 units at 60% of the potential capacity.

Problem 11 Diwana Ltd manufactures automobile accessories and parts. The following are the total costs and also the unit costs of processing a component, DIL-2010: Total Cost for 1,00,000 units Rs. 5,00,000 8,00,000 6,00,000 5,00,000 24,00,000

Direct Material Direct Labour Variable Factory Overheads Fixed Factory Overheads

Per unit Cost Rs. 5 8 6 5 24

Another manufacturer has offered to sell the same part to Diwana Ltd for Rs. 22 each. The fixed overheads would continue to be incurred even when the component is bought out, although there would be a reduction to the extent to Rs. 1,50,000 following the savings in the salaries of supervisory personnel that could be avoided if the company opts to ‘buy’ rather than ‘make.’ a. Should the part be made or bought considering that the present facility when released following a buying decision would remain idle? b. In case the released facility can be rented to another manufacturer for Rs. 50,000, as there is a good demand for spare facility, what would be the position? [I.C.W.A.

The Fixed Costs included in the cost of sales amount to Rs. 4,60,000. Variable selling and distribution expenses comprise of 10% commission on sales and Re. 0.50 per unit to be paid as the license fee to the designer of the product. A new customer has approached to buy 10,000 units of the product at a price of Rs. 7 per unit. The budgeted sales have been projected on the basis of orders already at hand and the offer is an addition to that. You are required to determine: (a) the net profit that will result if this offer is accepted; (b) the lowest price per unit that the company could quote for this offer and yet maintain the budgeted level of profit; and (c) whether it is profitable if the order is for 40,000 units from the new customer, instead of 10,000 units.

DECISION MAKING

a. The offer from the new customer for sale of 10,000 units should be accepted as it gives higher profit (i.e., Rs. 3,60,000) than the existing situation (i.e., Rs. 3,45,000). b. To maintain the budgeted level of profit of Rs. 3,45,000 with the additional sales of 10,000 units to the new customer, the company needs a total contribution of Rs. 10,35,000 (i.e., Profit of Rs. 3,45,000 + Fixed Cost of Rs. 6,90,000) from the normal output of 2,30,000 units and additional output of 10,000 units. As from the normal output of 2,30,000 units, the company has already achieved a contribution of Rs. 10,35,000, and, so, the company can sell the additional 10,000 units to the new customer after covering the Variable Cost for those 10,000 units only. Therefore, the minimum price could be quoted @ Rs. 5.50 per unit, being the Marginal Cost per unit, for those 10,000 units to the new customer for maintaining the budgeted level of profit. c. If the order from the new customer is for 40,000 units instead of 10,000 units, the company has to curtail its normal output from the existing level of 2,30,000 units to 2,10,000 units, as the full capacity of production is restricted to 2,50,000 units. In this situation, the company earns a total profit of Rs. 3,65,000, which is higher than the existing and proposed alternative situations. Therefore, if the order from the new customer is for 40,000 units instead of 10,000 units, then that would be more profitable to the company. Problem 13 Although Kaloo Ltd has the capacity to produce 16,000 units per month, it currently produces and sells only 10,000 units per month at Rs. 15 each. Following are the details of costs per unit at the current level of production: Rs. 5.00 3.00 0.75 1.50 0.25 1.00 11.50

i. Should the company accept a special order of 4,000 units at Rs. 10 per unit? ii. What is the maximum price the company should be willing to pay to the outside supplier who is interested in manufacturing this product? iii. What would be the effect on the monthly contribution margin if the selling price is reduced to Rs. 14 each, resulting in a 10% increase in the sales volume? [I.C.W.A. (Final)—Adapted] Solution i. If the company desires to accept a special order of 4,000 units together with the existing production of 10,000 units, then the following additional Variable Costs are to be incurred: Direct Materials per unit Direct Labour per unit Variable Factory Overheads per unit Variable Cost of Manufacturing per unit Price per unit of the special order Contribution per unit from special order ∴ Total Contribution from 4000 units of special order (4000 units × Rs. 1.25) Less: Variable Selling Expense (4,000 units × Re. 0.25) Net Contribution from special order

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

As the company has already achieved the BEP, this net contribution represents profit from the special order of 4,000 units. As there is enough spare capacity to produce the additional 4,000 units for accepting the special order (actual spare capacity available is 6,000 units.) and gives a profit of Rs. 4,000 too, the company should accept their special order. ii. As the Variable Cost of manufacturing per unit of this product is Rs. 8.75, the company should be willing to pay to the outside supplier the maximum of Rs. 8.75 per unit and not more than that. iii. Rs. Existing Selling Price per unit Existing Variable Cost per unit: Cost of Manufacture Selling Expense Existing Contribution per unit Existing Monthly Sales Volume ∴ Existing Monthly Contribution (10,000 units × Rs. 6)

If the selling price is reduced to Rs. 14 per unit resulting in a 10% increase in the sales volume, then Rs. 14 9 5 11,000 units Rs. 55,000

Proposed Selling Price per unit Less: Variable Cost per unit Proposed Contribution per unit Proposed Monthly Sales Volume (10,000 units + 10%) ∴ Proposed Monthly Contribution (11,000 units × Rs. 5)

∴ Reduction in monthly contribution as per new proposal = Rs. 60,000 – Rs. 55,000 = Rs. 5,000 Problem 14 Normal capacity of a company is 2,40,000 machine hours, but at present the company utilizes 40% of its capacity. In this situation, the monthly performance of the company is as follows: Rs. in Lakhs 30.00 15.00 6.00 5.00 3.50 0.50

The following two alternative proposals are under consideration of the company: a. The factory will utilize about 50% of the unutilized capacity by accepting the contract work, by charging Rs. 3.50 per machine hour. b. Discontinue the own production completely and lease out the entire facility on a monthly rental of Rs. 6.85 lakhs. You are required to comment on the action that is to be taken.

From the above analysis, it is transparent that Proposal A would be most profitable to the company as it gives the highest net profit among the various alternatives. Therefore, Proposal A should be accepted. Problem 15 The following data are available with respect to the coffee shop of a company for a week: BEP Profits when 2,40,000 units are sold Variable Cost to Sales Ratio

2,00,000 units Rs. 80,000 60%

Coffee shop remains open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. everyday. The manager is considering an extension of operations under two distinct proposals. Proposal I suggests operations till mid-night and this will increase the sales by Rs. 24,000 per week and involve additional costs on waiters, clerks and so on of Rs. 8,000 per week. The other alternative is to operate 24 hours a day. This will add to sales by Rs. 40,000 per week and involve additional costs on staff of Rs. 18,000 per week. Variable Costs (only on provisions) approximate about 40% of the sales price. You are asked to evaluate whether the shop should remain open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. or 8 a.m. to midnight or 24 hours a day from the view point of profitability. Solution Existing output (i.e., when the shop remains open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.) = 2,40,000 units Existing BEP = 2,00,000 units ∴ Existing Margin of Safety (MS) = 2,40,000 − 2,00,000 = 40,000 units We know, Contribution on MS = Profit Here, the Existing Profit = Rs. 80,000 Contribution on MS of 40,000 units = Rs. 80,000 ∴ Contribution per unit = Rs. 80,000/40,000 units = Rs. 2.00 Now, we know, BEP Sales in units = Fixed Cost/Contribution per unit Here, 2,00,000 = Fixed Cost/2

∴ Existing Fixed Cost = 2,00,000 × 2 Again, Variable Cost to Sales Ratio ∴ Contribution to Sales Ratio As the Existing Contribution per unit ∴ Existing Selling Price per unit = 100/40 × Rs. 2 ∴ Existing Sales = 2,40,000 units × Rs. 5

= Rs. 4,00,000 = 60% = 1 − 60% = 40% = Rs. 2 = Rs. 5 = Rs. 12,00,000

The product is manufactured by a machine, whose spare part costing Rs. 2,000 needs a replacement after every 100 pieces of output. This is in addition to the above costs. Assume that no defectives are produced and that the spare parts are readily available in the market at all times at Rs. 2,000. i. Prepare the profitability statement for the production levels of 2,000 units and 3,000 units, when the Fixed Cost = Rs. 1,00,000. ii. What is the BEP for the above data? iii. Comment on the BEP, if the Fixed Cost can be reduced to Rs. 1,80,000 from the existing level of Rs. 2,00,000. [C.A. (PE-II)—November 2006] Solution i.

iii. If the Fixed Cost is reduced to Rs. 1,80,000, then there would be a new BEP. Then, the range of units in which the BEP occurs

= Fixed Cost/Contribution per unit (considering spare parts cost as a variable) = Rs. 1,80,000/Rs. 180 = 1,000 units ∴ Range of BEP = 901 to 1,000 units Since the new BEP of 1,000 units falls on the uppermost limit of the range of 901 to 1,000 units, there would be one more BEP in the subsequent range of 1,001 to 1100. Range of BEP (a) General Fixed Cost (b) Spare Parts Cost ∴ Total Fixed Cost (a + b) ∴ Contribution per unit (treating Spare Parts Cost as a Variable Cost) ∴ BEP (in units) [Total Fixed Cost/Contribution per unit] ∴ BEP (in value)

Problem 22 The Manager of Division X of a company has given a production budget of 2,00,000 units of components, to be manufactured at a price which will provide a return of 25% on the average assets employed in the division. Following are the relevant data in relation thereto: Variable Cost Fixed Overheads Average Assets Employed: Stocks Debtors Fixed Assets

Re. 1 per Unit Rs. 4,00,000 Rs. 6,00,000 Rs. 2,00,000 Rs. 4,00,000

However, the marketing department of the company considers that the maximum units of the components the market can take at the proposed price is 1,40,000 only. The production manager of Division Y is ready to purchase 60,000 units of the component at a price of Rs. 2.25 per unit, as he feels that the component can be manufactured in his division at that price. The manager of Division X feels that rather than selling at Rs. 2.25 per unit, he would restrict the production in his division to 1,40,000 units only. By this, he feels that he could reduce Rs. 80,000 in stocks, Rs. 30,000 in debtors and Rs. 90,000 in plant and also reduce selling expenses by Rs. 40,000. You are required to work out whether 60,000 units should be produced for a transfer to Division Y at Rs. 2.25. Solution Total target selling price from 2,00,000 units is as follows: Variable Cost Fixed Overheads Return on Assets Employed (25% on Rs. 12,00,000) Total Selling Price

Rs. 2,00,000 4,00,000 3,00,000 9,00,000

∴ Selling Price per unit = Rs. 9,00,000 ÷ 2,00,000 = Rs. 4.50

From the above calculation, it has been observed that the overall profit as per the proposal of Production Manager of Division Y (i.e., Rs. 1,65,000) is higher than that of as per the proposal of Manager of Division X (i.e., Rs. 1,30,000). Therefore, it may be concluded that the production of 1,40,000 units for sale in the market @ Rs. 4.50 per unit and the production of 40,000 units for a transfer to Division Y @ Rs. 2.25 per unit are advised to Division X, as this combination gives a higher overall profit to the division. Problem 23 A company is currently operating at 75% level of activity and it produces and sells two products X and Y. The cost sheets of these two products are as follows: Units Produced & Sold Direct Materials Direct Labour Factory Overheads (40% fixed) Administration & Selling Overheads (60% fixed) Total Cost per unit Selling Price per unit

X 3,000 Rs. per unit 10 20 25 40 95 115

Y 2,000 Rs. per unit 20 20 15 25 80 95

Factory overheads are absorbed on the basis of machine hour which is the limiting factor. The machine hour rate is Rs. 10 per hour. The company receives an offer from Japan for the purchase of product X at the price of Rs. 87.50 per unit. Alternatively, the company has another offer from Bangkok for the purchase of product Y at the price of Rs. 77.50 per unit. In both the cases, a special packing charge of Rs. 2.50 per unit has to be borne by the company. The company can accept either of the two export orders by utilizing the balance of 25% of its capacity. Advise the company of which proposal should be accepted and prepare a statement showing the overall profitability of the company after incorporating the export proposal suggested by you. [B.Com.

CONCLUSION From the above, it is observed that the acceptance of export order from Source A gives a loss of Rs. 10,000, acceptance of export order from Source B does not add any profit and acceptance of export order from Source C gives only a profit of Rs. 90,000. On the other hand, the overall profit from all the three orders comes to Rs. 80,000 (i.e., Rs. 90,000 − Rs. 10,000). Therefore, the company should accept the export offer from Source C only. If the three export orders are complementary to each other, then the company may accept all the three orders as this combination yields an overall profit of Rs. 80,000. CHAPTER REVIEW SUMMARY  Decision Making means the process of choosing of the best one among the various alternative actions. For any business planning and control, the management is engaged in search of the most appropriate course of action. Among the various alternatives feasible to the management, it has to choose the best one from the point of view of the business concern.  For an effective Decision Making, the following steps are to be considered: (i) Clearly defining the concerned problem; (ii) Identifying and describing the available alternatives; (iii) Evaluating relevant quantitative and qualitative factors; (v) Selecting the best one among the identified various alternatives; and (vi) Evaluating the performance of the decision and providing feedback.  Certain concepts of cost which are used in the process of cost analysis for Decision Making are: (a) Marginal Cost; (b) Differential Cost; (c) Sunk cost; (d) Out of pocket cost; (e) Opportunity cost; (f) Imputed cost; and (g) Replacement cost.  A cost (or revenue) that is essentially important and relevant to a Decision Making process is called Relevant Cost (or Relevant Revenue). Relevant Costs and revenues are those expected future costs and future revenues which differ under alternative courses of action being considered in the Decision Making process.  A comparison of Differential Cost Analysis with Marginal Costing shows the following facts: (a) Both Differential Costing as well as Marginal Costing are techniques of cost analysis; (b) Both the techniques are used by the management in its process of Decision Making; (c) Both the techniques are based on the classification of costs into Fixed Cost and Variable Cost; (d) When there is no change in the Fixed Cost due to a change in the volume of production or sales, then Differential Cost becomes equal to the Marginal Cost; and (e) In Marginal Costing, P/V ratio, contribution margin, contribution per unit of limiting factor and so on are the main parameters for evaluation of performance and Decision Making. On the other hand, in Differential Cost Analysis, Differential Costs are compared with the differential revenues to select the best alternative in the process of Decision Making.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

II. Practical Problems

1. A machine manufactures 10,000 units of a part at a total cost of Rs. 21, of which Rs. 18 is a variable. This part is readily available in the market at Rs. 19 per unit. If the part is purchased from the market, then the machine can either be utilized to manufacture a component in the same quantity contributing Rs. 2 per component or it can be hired out at Rs. 21,000. Recommend which of the alternatives is profitable? Ans.: It is recommended to purchase the part from the market and the machine time is hired out, as this alternative is the least costly of the three alternatives. 2. Java Ltd manufactures and markets a single product. The following information is available: Materials per unit Conversion Costs (variable) per unit Dealer’s Margin per unit Selling Price per unit Fixed Cost Present Sales Capacity Utilization

Rs. 8.00 Rs. 6.00 Rs. 2.00 Rs. 20.00 Rs. 2,50,000 80,000 units 60%

There is acute competition. Extra efforts are necessary to sell. Suggestions have been made for increasing sales: (i) by reducing the sales price by 5% and (ii) by increasing the dealer’s margin by 25% over the existing rate. Which of the two suggestions would you recommend if the company desires to maintain the present profit? [C.S. (Inter)—Adapted] Ans.: Under proposal (i): Contribution per unit – Rs. 3.10; Sales volume required – 1,03,226 units. Under proposal (ii): Contribution per unit – Rs. 3.50; Sales volume required – 91,429 units. Proposal (ii) is recommended. 3. A company producing 24,000 units provides you the following information: Direct Materials Direct Wages Variable Overheads Semi-variable Overheads Fixed Overheads Total Cost

Rs. 1,20,000 84,000 48,000 28,000 80,000 3,60,000

The product is sold at Rs. 20 per unit. The management proposes to increase the production by 3,000 units for sales in the foreign market. It is estimated that the semi-variable overheads will increase by Rs. 1,000. But the product will be sold at Rs. 14 per unit in the foreign market. However, no additional capital expenditure will be incurred. The management seeks your advice as a Cost Accountant. What will you advise them? [B.Com. (Hons), Delhi University] Ans.: Export order should be accepted as it yields an additional profit of Rs. 9,500. 4. A manufacturer has planned his level of operations at 50% of his plant capacity of 30,000 units. His expenses are estimated as follows, at 50% of the plant capacity utilization: Direct Materials Direct Wages Variable and other Manufacturing Expenses Total Fixed Expenses Irrespective of Capacity Utilization

Rs. 8,280 11,160 3,960 6,000

The expected selling price in the domestic market is Rs. 2 per unit. Recently, the manufacturer has received a trade enquiry from an overseas organization that is interested in purchasing 6,000 units at a price of Rs. 1.45 per unit.

As a professional Management Accountant what would be your suggestion regarding acceptance or rejection of the offer? Support your suggestion with suitable quantitative information. [I.C.W.A. (Inter)—Adapted] Ans.: Export order is not acceptable as it yields a decrease in the total profit by Rs. 60. 5. The cost per unit of the three Products X, Y and Z are given as follows: Particulars

X (Rs.) 20 12 8 6 46 18 64 10,000

Direct Material Direct Labour Variable Overheads Fixed Expenses Profit Selling Price No. of units Produced

Y (Rs.) 16 14 10 6 46 14 60 5,000

Z (Rs.) 18 12 6 4 40 12 52 8,000

Production arrangements are such that if one product is given up, the production of the others can be raised by 50%. The directors propose that Product Z should be given up because the contribution from the product is the lowest. Present a suitable analysis of the data indicating whether the proposal should be accepted or not. [B.Com. (Hons), Delhi University—1998] Ans.: Proposal of the directors is not acceptable. Profit (Rs. 4,30,000) would be maximum if Product Y is given up. 6. A company manufactures electric motors at a price of Rs. 6,900 each, which is made up as follows: Rs. 3,200 400 1,000 200 200 100 200 1,000 6,300 600 6,900

A foreign buyer has offered to buy 200 such motors at Rs. 5,000 each. As a Cost Accountant of the company, would you advise acceptance of the offer? ii. What should the company quote for a motor to be purchased by a company under the same management if it should be at cost? [B.Com. (Hons), Delhi University] Ans.: (i) Offer from the foreign buyer is acceptable as it is expected to yield an incremental profit of Rs. 40,000. (ii) Rs. 5,200 (without charging an excise duty). 7. Two competing companies Heera Ltd and Panna Ltd sell the same type of product in the same market. Their forecasted Profit & Loss A/c for the year ending 31 March 2010 are as follows: Heera Ltd Rs.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

You are required to state which company is likely to earn a greater profit in the conditions of: a. Low Demand. b. High Demand. [I.C.W.A. (Inter)—Adapted] Ans.: (a) Heera Ltd and (b) Panna Ltd 8. A mechanical toy factory presents the following information for the year 2009: Material Cost Labour Cost Fixed Overheads Variable Overheads Units Produced Selling Price per unit

Rs. 1,20,000 Rs. 2,40,000 Rs. 1,20,000 Rs. 60,000 12,000 Rs. 50

The available capacity is a production of 20,000 units per year. The firm has an offer for the purchase of 5,000 additional units at a price of Rs. 40 per unit. It is expected that by accepting this offer there will be a saving of rupee one per unit in the material cost on all the units manufactured, the fixed overheads will increase by Rs. 35,000 and the overall efficiency will drop by 2% on all production. State whether the offer is acceptable or not. [C.S. (Inter)—Adapted] Ans.: P/V Ratio increases from 25% to 26.9% and the fixed overheads increase from Rs. 1,20,000 to Rs. 1,55,000 if the offer is accepted. The offer is, therefore, not very attractive. 9. Wanna manufacturing company sells the following three products: X @ Rs. 8 per unit, Y @ Rs. 2 per unit and Z @ Rs. 3 per unit. While Product X contributes 20% its revenue in Fixed Cost and profit, Product Y contributes 10% and product Z contributes 60%. The company earned a net profit of Rs. 50,000 last year by selling 50,000 units of X, 1,50,000 units of Y and 60,000 units of Z. It is believed that the profit picture can be improved by eliminating Product Y and concentrating the sales efforts on Products X and Z. There is an opportunity to increase the sale of Product X to 70,000 units, but product Z will probably be sold at the same volume next year. As a Cost Accountant of the company, give your suggestion regarding the elimination of Product Y. Ans.: Elimination of Product Y is recommended as it will increase the net profit by Rs. 2,000 and the total Fixed Cost is Rs. 1,68,000. 10. King Parts Ltd has an annual production of 90,000 units for a motor component. The component’s cost structure is as follows: Rs. Material per unit Labour per unit (25% fixed) Expenses per unit: Variable Fixed

90 135 Total Cost per unit

Rs. 270 180

225 675

a. The purchase manager has an offer from a supplier who is willing to supply the component at Rs. 540. Should the component be purchased and production stopped? b. Assume the resources now used for this component’s manufacture are to be used to produce another new product for which the selling price is Rs. 485. In the latter case, the material price will be Rs. 200 per unit. 90,000 units of this product can be produced at the same cost basis as above for labour and expenses. Discuss whether it would be advisable to divert the resources to manufacture that new product, on the footing that the component presently being produced would instead of being produced, be purchased from the market.

DECISION MAKING

Ans.: a. The company should not stop production of the component. b. It is advised to divert the resources to manufacture the new product as there will be a saving of Rs. 15 per unit. 11. Firdous Ltd operating at 75% level of activity produces and sells two products K and L. The cost sheets of these two products are as follows: Product K 600 Rs. 2 4 5 8 19 23

Units Produced and Sold Direct Materials Direct Labour Factory Overheads (40% fixed) Selling & Administration Overheads (60% fixed) Total Cost per unit Selling Price per unit

Product L 400 Rs. 4 4 3 5 16 19

Factory overheads are absorbed on the basis of machine hour which is the limiting (key) factor. The machine hour rate is Rs. 2 per hour. The company receives an offer from Italy for the purchase of Product K at a price of Rs. 17.50 per unit. Alternatively, the company has another offer from Japan for the purchase of Product L at a price of Rs. 15.50 per unit. In both the cases, a special packing charge of Re. 0.50 per unit has to be borne by the company. The company can accept either of the two export orders and in either case, the company can supply such quantities as may be possible to produce by utilizing the balance of 25% of its capacity. You are required to prepare: i.

a statement showing the economies of the two export proposals giving your recommendations as to which proposal should be accepted. ii. a statement showing the overall profitability of the company after incorporating the export proposal recommended by you. [C.A. (Inter)—Adapted] Ans.: Contribution per machine hour: K – Rs. 1.92 and L – Rs. 2.13; No. of export order of L – 4,607 units; Overall profit – Rs. 5,095; and Total Fixed Cost – Rs. 5,760. 12.

Fixed Costs per month amount to Rs. 50,000. Product Z is sold at Rs. 300 per unit. From the next month onwards, the company expects the demand for Z to rise by 25%. As the machine capacity is limited, the company wants to meet the increase in demand by buying such numbers of A, B or C which is most profitable. You are asked to find out the following: a. Current demand and profit made by the company. b. Which component and how many units of the same should be bought from the market to meet the increase in demand?

c. Profit made by the company if the suggestion in (b) is accepted. [I.C.W.A. (Inter)—December 1998] Ans.: (a) 800 units, Profit Rs. 15,600; (b) 600 units of B; (c) Rs. 23,000. 20. A company produces 30,000 units of product A and 20,000 units of a product B per annum. The sales value and costs of the two products are as follows: Rs. 7,60,000 1,40,000 1,90,000 1,90,000 1,20,000

Sales Value Direct Material Direct Labour Factory Overheads Administrative & Selling Overheads

50% of factory overheads are variable and 50% of administrative and selling overheads are fixed. The selling price of A is Rs. 12 per unit and B is Rs. 20 per unit. The direct material and labour ratio for product A is 2:3 and for B is 4:5. For both the products, the selling price is 400% of direct labour. The factory overheads are charged in the ratio of direct labour, and administrative and selling overheads are recovered at a flat rate of Rs. 2 per unit of A and Rs. 3 per unit of B. Due to a fall in the demand of the above products, the company has a plan to diversify and make the product C using 40% capacity. It has been estimated that for C the direct material and direct labour will be Rs. 2.50 and Rs. 3 per unit, respectively. Other Variable Costs will be the same as applicable to product A. The selling price of product C is Rs. 14 per unit and the production will be 30,000 units. Assuming that 60% capacity is used for manufacturing A and B: a. Calculate the present cost and profit. b. Calculate the costs and profit after diversification. c. Give your recommendation as to whether to diversify or not. [I.C.W.A.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES On completion of the study of the chapter, you should be able to understand: What is Capital Budgeting? Features and importance of Capital Budgeting. Different types of investments. Different types of Capital Budgeting decisions. Evaluation criteria of Capital Budgeting decisions. Concept and determination of present value and discounted cash flow. Different Capital Budgeting techniques.

12.1 CONCEPT OF CAPITAL BUDGETING Capital Budgeting is the technique of long-term planning and analysis of outflows and inflows of funds relating to some investment objectives. It is the planning of capital expenditure which provides return over a number of years. According to Charles T. Horngreen, ‘Capital Budgeting is long-term planning for making and financing proposed capital outlay.’ Capital Budgeting is the process of making investment decisions in the capital expenditure which are essentially long-term projects, the benefits of which are expected to be received over a number of years. Therefore, it is the decision-making process by which firms evaluate their future long-term investments like purchase of new fixed assets, new investments to be made outside the firm and so on. 12.2 FEATURES OF CAPITAL BUDGETING Capital Budgeting technique possesses the following distinguished features: i. Investment proposal for which the Capital Budgeting technique is to be applied should be of a longterm nature. ii. Proposed investment is to be made during the current period, but return from the investment will be obtained over a number of years in the future period. iii. Expenditure for the proposed investment and return from such investment should be measured in terms of cash flow, that is, cash outflow and cash inflow respectively. iv. Investment decision may be taken for a single project proposal, or for two or more mutually exclusive project proposals. v. Acceptance or rejection of an investment proposal should be based on the maximization of value of the firm. vi. Capital Budgeting involves a higher degree of risk as it is a planning of log-term investments.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

12.3 IMPORTANCE OF CAPITAL BUDGETING Capital Budgeting has an immense importance to every concern for its long-term decision-making due to the following reasons: i. Capital Budgeting decisions involve a huge investment. As the resources are limited, it is very important to judge the viability of the proposed capital expenditure. They provide a necessary plan and control for the proposed capital expenditure. ii. While capital investment involves a long-term investment of fund with the risk factor, Capital Budgeting provides the necessary plan and action for minimizing the risk involved in the long-term investment. iii. Capital Budgeting decisions are, in most cases, of irreversible nature due to the involvement of a huge fund for a long-term period. Hence, proper care should be taken through the Capital Budgeting for implementing such an investment. iv. They not only effect on the present earning of the firm but also effect on the future profitability of the firm. v. Capital Budgeting decisions involve complexity due to a high degree of risk, future uncertainties and long-time involvement associated with them. vi. They influence on the financing and dividend decisions of the firm. vii. They involve employment, economic growth and development, economic activities and so on; and thus, they also have a social and national importance. 12.4 TYPES OF INVESTMENTS Under Capital Budgeting technique, investments are classified into two parts as follows: Expansion projects: In this segment, investments are made to new projects with the view to generate an additional revenue of the firm. Such investment in new project is often referred to as ‘revenue expansion investment.’ Replacement projects: In this segment, investments are made to the existing projects with the view to increase the earnings of the firm by reduction of cost through replacement of the existing project. Such investment for replacement of the existing project is often referred to as ‘cost reduction investment.’ 12.5 TYPES OF CAPITAL BUDGETING DECISIONS Capital Budgeting decisions may be applied for different long-term investment decisions. Such investment decisions are generally classified into the following three categories: Accept–reject decision: This implies either the acceptance of the investment proposal or rejection of the proposal. Under this category, the investment proposal that has been considered for evaluation is being evaluated on the basis of certain evaluation criteria for a Capital Budgeting decision. If the investment proposal satisfies all those evaluation criteria for a Capital Budgeting decision, it is accepted by the firm; otherwise, the proposal is rejected. Mutually exclusive decision: This implies the acceptance of the best proposal and rejection of other proposals. Under this category, all investment proposals are considered to be independent of each other and any two proposals cannot be accepted simultaneously. Each of these investment proposals is being evaluated separately on the basis of certain evaluation criteria for a Capital Budgeting decision. Among the various alternative investment proposals, the proposal which shows the best result on the basis of those evaluation criteria for Capital Budgeting decision is accepted by the firm and other proposals are rejected. Capital-rationing decision: It implies the decision of distribution of limited funds among different accepted investment proposals. This is applied in a situation when a number of alternative investment proposals have been selected for investments, but the firm does not have sufficient funds to invest in all these selected

investment proposals. In this situation, the firm should rank the different investment proposals according to their return from the highest to the lowest. Thereafter, a cut-off point is selected for investment on the basis of the available funds. Investment proposals above the cut-off point will be selected for investment and investment proposals below the cut-off point will be rejected. 12.6 EVALUATION CRITERIA OF CAPITAL BUDGETING DECISIONS For evaluating the acceptability of a long-term investment proposal under Capital Budgeting technique, the following three steps are to be followed: Step 1: Determination of the future expected cash flows from the investment proposals. Step 2: Determination of the required expected rate of return by the investors (i.e., cost of capital). Step 3: Application of Capital Budgeting evaluation criteria to evaluate the investment proposals. 12.7 CONCEPT OF PRESENT VALUE (PV) In the context of Capital Budgeting technique of an investment decision, Present Value (PV) is the current value of a future receivable or payable amount. Such future receivable or payable amount expressed in the future price level is being converted at its PV with the help of a discounting factor or PV factor. Say, an income of Rs. 40,000 will be earned from a project after 4 years. This Rs. 40,000 represents the future value which will be earned after 4 years. This future value is to be converted at today’s value with the help of discounting or PV factor; and thus, the PV of Rs. 40,000 could be obtained. Hence, the PV is today’s value of a future income or expense. 12.8 DETERMINATION OF PV FACTOR OR DISCOUNTING FACTOR The Present Value of a future income or expense is to be determined with the help of a PV or discounting factor. This PV or discounting factor is to be computed with the help of the following formula: PV factor or Discounting factor of Re. 1 = 1/(1 + k)n Where, k = PV or Discounting rate and n = Future period of income or expense Thus, the PV of Re. 1 at 10% discounting rate for the next 3 years would be as follows: For the 1st year: PV = 1/(1 + 0.10)1 = Re. 0.909 For the 2nd year: PV = 1/(1 + 0.10)2 = Re. 0.826 For the 3rd year: PV = 1/(1 + 0.10)3 = Re. 0.751 Now, if Rs. 20,000, Rs. 30,000 and Rs. 40,000 are the values that will be earned after 1st, 2nd and 3rd years, respectively, at a 10% discounting rate, then their PVs would be as follows: PV of Rs. 20,000 = Rs. 20,000 × 0.909 = Rs. 18,180 PV of Rs. 30,000 = Rs. 30,000 × 0.826 = Rs. 24,780 PV of Rs. 40,000 = Rs. 40,000 × 0.751 = Rs. 30,040 12.9 CONCEPT OF DISCOUNTED CASH FLOW When cash is going out of the firm, it is called ‘cash outflow’ and when cash is coming into the firm, it is called ‘cash inflow.’ For an investment project proposal, the cash outflow refers to estimated amount of cash required to be invested into the project. On the other hand, in this context, the cash inflow refers to the expected amount of cash that would be earned from the project during its life. When any future expected cash inflow or outflow is being converted at its PV with the help of the PV or the discounting factor, such converted PV of cash inflow or outflow is called the ‘discounted cash flow.’ Hence, the discounted cash flow is the PV of the ‘future cash flow.’

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

12.10 CAPITAL BUDGETING TECHNIQUES Capital Budgeting techniques are broadly classified into two categories: (i) non-discounted technique; and (ii) discounted technique. Each category is again classified under different methods as follows: i. Non-discounted techniques (i.e., without considering the time value of money): a. Pay Back Period (PBP) method. b. Pay Back Profitability method. c. Average Rate of Return (ARR) method. ii. Discounted cash-flow techniques (i.e., time-adjusted techniques): a. Discounted PBP method. b. Profitability Index (PI) method. c. Net Present Value (NPV) method. d. Internal Rate of Return (IRR) method. e. Terminal Value (TV) method. 12.10.1 Non-discounted Techniques (Without Considering the Time Value of Money) Non-discounted technique of Capital Budgeting refers to the technique or method of investment decision where it is considered that there is no change in the price level between the date of initial investment made and the date of last return from the investment. Under this technique, the future value of money is considered at the current value. 12.10.1.1 Pay Back Period (PBP) Method Pay Back Period refers to the period (generally number of years) of an investment project proposal at which the firm expects to recover its initial investment to the project proposal. More clearly, PBP is the period at which the total cash inflows from a project equals to the initial investment (i.e., cash outflows) made to the project. Computation of PBP i. When the Cash Inflows after Tax (CFAT) are constant every year: PBP =

Initial investment Constant CFAT p.a.

ii. When CFAT are not constant every year, the following steps are to be followed: Step 1: Calculate the CFAT of each year. Step 2: Compute the cumulative CFAT. Step 3: The time (i.e., year) when the cumulative CFAT becomes equal to the initial investment would be the PBP or else, use the method of interpolation. Decision-making criterion Under this method, the project having the shortest PBP should be undertaken. 12.10.1.2 Pay Back Profitability Method Pay Back Profitability is the amount of cash flows earned from a project after its Pay Back Period. More clearly, it is the excess of cash inflows from a project over the initial investment into the project. It represents the net cash inflows from the project proposal. Computation of Pay Back Profitability i. When the CFAT p.a. are constant: Pay Back Profitability = (Expected life of the project – PBP) × CFAT p.a. ii. When CFAT p.a. are not constant: Pay Back Profitability = Total CFAT – Initial investment

Decision-making criterion Under this method, the project having the highest pay-back profitability should be undertaken. Note: Pay Back Profitability method is superior to PBP method. 12.10.1.3 Average or Accounting Rate of Return (ARR) Method Average or Accounting Rate of Return is the average rate of profit to be earned from a project proposal. It is expressed as a percentage of average Profit after Tax (PAT) earned from a project on the average investment made to the project. Under ARR method, net PAT expected to be earned from the project is being considered and not the cash inflow from the project. PAT = CFAT + Non-cash expenses like depreciation ARR =

Average annual Profit After Tax (i.e., avg. PAT) Average investment in the project

where Average PAT = Average investment =

Total PAT during the life of the project Life of the project in years (Initial investment – Scrap value) + Scrap value + Additional networking capital 2

Decision-making criterion Under this method, the project having the highest ARR should be undertaken. 12.10.2 Discounted Cash Flow Techniques (Time-adjusted Techniques) Discounted technique of Capital Budgeting refers to the technique or method of investment decision where the incidence of change in the price level between the date of initial investment made and the date of last return from the investment is being considered. In case of long-term investment, there must be a long time gap between the date of initial investment made and the dates of return from the investment. During this long time interval, the price level cannot remain constant. This change in the price level is considered under different discounted techniques of Capital Budgeting decision. Under this technique, future value of money is being converted at its PV with the help of PV or discounting factor. 12.10.2.1 Discounted Pay Back Period (Discounted PBP) Method Discounted PBP refers to the period (generally, number of years) of an investment project proposal at which the firm expects to recover its initial investment made to the project proposal after converting the future expected cash inflows from the project into their PVs. More clearly, the discounted PBP is the period at which the PV of the total cash inflows (i.e. Total PV of CFAT) from a project equals to the PV of the total cash outflows (i.e., the initial investment made to the project). Following steps are to be followed for determining the discounted PBP: Step 1: Calculate the CFAT of each year. Step 2: Multiply the CFAT of each year by the respective PV factor and get the discounted CFAT or PV of CFAT. Step 3: Compute the cumulative discounted CFAT. Step 4: Get the discounted PBP where the discounted CFAT is equal to the total investment. If such a figure (i.e., the value of total investment) cannot be found out from the discounted CFAT, then apply the method of interpolation. Decision-making criterion Under this method, the project having the shortest discounted PBP should be undertaken.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

12.10.2.2 Net Present Value (NPV) Method Net Present Value (NPV) is the difference between the PV of the total cash inflows from a project and the PV of the total cash outflows for the project. NPV = Total of PV of cash inflows – Total of PV of cash outflows (i.e., the total of discounted cash inflows – the total of discounted cash outflows) Following steps are to be followed for determining the NPV: Step 1: Calculate the CFAT of each year. Step 2: Multiply the CFAT of each year by the respective PV factor and get the discounted CFAT or PV of CFAT. Step 3: Compute the cumulative discounted CFAT. Step 4: Compute the PV of cash outflows. Step 5: Calculate the NPV by deducting the PV of the total cash outflows from the PV of the total cash inflows. Decision-making criterion i. In case of a single project proposal, accept it if NPV > 0; else, reject it. ii. In case of two mutually exclusive project proposals, accept the project having the higher NPV. 12.10.2.3 Profitability Index (PI) Method Profitability Index (PI) is the ratio of the PV of the total cash inflows from a project and the PV of the total cash outflows for the project. PI is also called the ‘benefit-cost ratio.’ PI =

PV of total cash inflows PV of total cash outflows

Decision-making criterion i. If PI > 1 — Accept the project proposal. ii. If PI < 1 — Reject the project proposal. iii. If PI = 1 — The management may be indifferent in accepting or rejecting the project proposal. Generally, the project proposal is rejected in such a case as the firm does not get the net benefit from it. 12.10.2.4 Internal Rate-of-Return (IRR) Method Internal Rate of Return (IRR) is the rate of return which equates the PV of the total cash inflows with the PV of the total cash outflows. Therefore, IRR is the rate of return (i.e., the discounting factor) which makes the NPV zero. At the IRR, PV of total cash inflows = PV of total cash outflows. Hence, PI = 1. Decision-making criterion i. In case of a single project proposal, accept it if the IRR exceeds the cost of capital. ii. In case of two mutually exclusive project proposals, accept the project having the higher IRR. Note: NPV method is superior to IRR method. 12.10.2.5 Terminal Value (TV) Method Net Terminal Value (NTV) refers to the difference between the total PV of the compounded reinvested cash inflows from a project and the PV of the cash outflows for the project. Under this method, the cash inflows from a project proposal are compounded forward rather than discounting them backward as in the case of NPV method. Here, it is assumed that each cash inflow from a project is reinvested in another project at a

certain rate of interest, till the termination of the project; and thus, the cash inflows from the project are compounded forward. These compounded values are then discounted at an appropriate discounting rate (generally at the rate of cost of capital for the project) to get the PV of reinvested cash flows, as follows. NTV = Total PV of compounded reinvested cash inflows – Total PV of cash outflows. Decision-making criterion i. In case of a single project proposal, accept it if the total PV of the compounded reinvested cash inflows is greater than the PV of the cash outflows. Otherwise, reject the project proposal. ii. In case of two mutually exclusive project proposals, accept the project having the higher total PV of the compounded reinvested cash inflows. Tutorial Notes to Students for Solving Problems i. Firstly, students are advised to go through the problem very carefully. ii. Except accounting or ARR method, all other Capital Budgeting techniques require CFAT. In case of ARR alone, PAT is required. iii. Profit before Tax (PBT) = Profit before depreciation and tax (PBDT) – Depreciation. PAT = PBT – Tax. CFAT = PAT + Depreciation. iv. PAT = CFAT – Depreciation. v. Students are advised to use PV table for getting the required PV or discounting factor, if not given in the problem.

iii. On the basis of PBP, project X should be accepted as its PBP is shorter (i.e., 6 years) than that of project Y (i.e., 10 years). On the other hand, on the basis of pay-back profitability, project Y should be accepted as its Pay Back Profitability is more (i.e., Rs. 4,00,000) than that of project X (i.e., Rs. 2,50,000). iv. As Pay Back Profitability method is more effective to a business concern than PBP method, project Y should be accepted here, as it is recommended as per Pay Back Profitability method.

What would have been your answer had the initial investment been Rs. 30,00,000 instead of Rs. 27,00,000? Stop and Think In the given problem, CFAT from the project are not constant every year. Hence, in such a case, the cumulative CFAT are to be calculated adding every year’s CFAT. The year in which the cumulative CFAT would be equal to the initial investment is the PBP for the project. If the cumulative CFAT from the project is not exactly equal to the initial investment, then the PBP for the project is to be calculated with the help of either the ‘forward method’ or the ‘backward method’ of ‘interpolation.’

Here, the cumulative CFAT is equal to the initial investment of Rs. 27,00,000 of the 5th year. ∴ PBP of project Z = 5 years. ∴ Pay Back Profitability of project Z = Total of CFAT – Initial investment = Rs. 57,00,000 – Rs. 27,00,000 = Rs. 30,00,000 Had the initial investment been Rs. 30,00,000, instead of Rs. 27,00,000, then: From the above calculation, it could be observed that the initial investment of Rs. 30,00,000 lies in between the cumulative CFAT of Rs. 27,00,000 and Rs. 35,00,000, which would be recovered in between the period of 5th and 6th year. In such a situation, PBP is to be calculated with the help of either the forward method or backward method of interpolation as used as follows: Using Forward Method of Interpolation: PBP of project Z = 5 years + [{(3000000 – 2700000)/(3500000 – 2700000)} × 1] = 5 + 0.375 = 5.375 years Using Backward Method of Interpolation: PBP of project Z = 6 years – [{(3500000 – 3000000)/(3500000 – 2700000)} × 1] = 6 – 0.625 = 5.375 years Then, the Pay-back profitability of project Z = Total of CFAT – Initial investment = Rs. 57,00,000 – Rs. 30,00,000 = Rs. 27,00,000 Problem 6 Compute the PBP for the Project End of the Year Book Value of Fixed Assets (Rs. in lakhs) PAT (Rs. in lakhs)

[B.Com. (Hons), Calcutta University—2006] Solution Here, PAT for useful years are given, but for the purpose of computation of PBP, CFAT for the useful years are needed. Therefore, CFAT of the useful years are to be calculated first for the purpose. For ascertaining the CFAT from PAT, non-cash expenses like depreciation and so on are to be added to the PAT. ∴ CFAT = PAT + Depreciation Here, Depreciation on the fixed assets for each year = 10 (Rs. in lakhs), as the book values of fixed assets are reducing by 10 (Rs. in lakhs) every year. ∴ Initial investment in the fixed assets at the beginning of the 1st year = 90 + 10 = 100 (Rs. in lakhs).

In such a situation, PBP is to be calculated with the help of either the forward method or the backward method of interpolation as used as follows: Using Forward Method of Interpolation: PBP of fixed assets = 3 years + [{(100 – 96)/(132 – 96)} × 1] = 3 + 0.11 = 3.11 years Problem 7 A project requires an initial investment of Rs. 4,00,000. The estimated life of the project is 5 years and its estimated scrap value at the end of its life would be Rs. 80,000. Additional working capital required for the project is Rs. 20,000. The expected annual profits before depreciation and tax from the project in 5 years would be Rs. 60,000, Rs. 1,40,000, Rs. 1,60,000, Rs. 1,60,000 and Rs. 40,000, respectively. If the tax rate is 40% and depreciation is charged under the straight-line basis, calculate the ARR of the project. If the minimum required rate of return is 10%, should the project be accepted?

Calculation of Average Investment Average investment = {(Initial investment – Salvage value) ÷ 2} + Salvage value + Additional working capital = {(10,00,000 – 0) ÷ 2} + 0 + 0 = Rs. 5,00,000 ∴Accounting Rate of Return (ARR) = (Average annual PAT ÷ Average investment) × 100 = (56,250 ÷ 5,00,000) × 100 = 11.25% If the rate of cost of capital for the proposed project is less than the ARR (i.e., 11.25%), then the project proposal should be accepted; otherwise, it should be rejected. Thus, the ARR is used for assessing the profit worthiness of the proposed project through its comparison with the rate of cost of capital for the project. Problem 9 Determine the ARR from the following information as furnished in respect of two machines and comment on the results: Cost (Rs.)

Depreciation has been charged on the straight-line basis. Solution ARR = (Average annual PAT ÷ Average investment) × 100 Now, the Average annual PAT = Total PAT during the estimated life of the project ÷ Estimated life of the project in years. And, Average investment = {(Initial investment – Salvage value) ÷ 2} + Salvage value + Additional working capital requirement. Here, CFAT for the expected useful years are given, but for the purpose of computation of ARR, PAT for the expected useful years are needed. Therefore, PAT for the expected useful years are to be calculated first for the purpose. For ascertaining the PAT from CFAT, non-cash expenses like depreciation and so on are to be deducted from the given CFAT.

Solution Here, the Cash Flow before Depreciation and Tax (CFBDT) is given, but for the purpose of computation of NPV, CFAT is needed. So, to get the CFAT from the CFBDT, the following adjustments are to be made: CFAT = PAT + Depreciation Again, PAT = CFBDT – Depreciation – Tax Here, depreciation per year is: For Machine 1 = Rs. 50,000 ÷ 4 = Rs. 12,500 For Machine 2 = Rs. 60,000 ÷ 4 = Rs. 15,000 Computation of NPV of Machine 1 Year 1 2 3 4 Less:

Comment Here, both the machines are having positive NPV and thus qualify for acceptance of both the investment proposals. But, if these two investment proposals are mutually exclusive, then the investment in machine 2 should be chosen as the NPV of machine 2 is higher than that of machine 1.

You are asked to evaluate the project proposal using Terminal Value method. Compounded value of Re. 1: At a 6% rate for 3 years – 1.191. At a 7% rate for 2 years – 1.145. At a 8% rate for 1 year – 1.080. At a 9% rate for 0 years – 0.000. PV of Re. 1 at a 10% discounting factor for 4 years – 0.683.

Now, the PV of the total compounded value of the reinvested cash inflows is to be computed at a 10% discounting factor (i.e., at the rate of the cost of capital) for 4 years. The PV of the total compounded value of the reinvested cash inflows at the 10% discounting factor for 4 years = Total compounded value of the reinvested cash inflows × PV of Re. 1 at 10% for 4 years = Rs. 2,20,800 × 0.6830 = Rs. 1,50,806 Net Terminal Value (NTV) = PV of the total compounded value of the reinvested cash inflows – PV of the total cash outflows = Rs. 1,50,806 – Rs. 1,00,000 = Rs. 50,806 As the PV of the total compounded value of the reinvested cash inflows is greater than the PV of the total cash outflows (thus, NTV becomes positive), the given project proposal should be accepted. Problem 15 A company proposes to install a machine involving a capital cost of Rs. 3,60,000. The life of the machine is 5 years and its salvage value at the end of the life is nil.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Calculation of Internal Rate of Return (IRR) Internal Rate of Return is the rate of return which equates the total PV of cash inflows with the total PV of cash outflows, that is, which makes the NPV zero. To find out that discounting factor, let us start the solution on a trial-and-error basis. Firstly, let us calculate the average PBP for obtaining a quotient as follows: Average PBP = Initial investment/Average annual CFAT = Rs. 3,60,000/Rs. 1,09,400 = 3.29 From the given PV factor of the annuity table for 5 years, we find: Sum of the PV at a 15% discounting rate for 5 years = 3.35 Sum of the PV at a 16% discounting rate for 5 years = 3.27 Here, the quotient of average PBP (i.e., 3.29) lies in between 3.35 and 3.27 as calculated earlier. Therefore, the IRR may lie in between the discounting factors at 15% and 16% and the picture becomes as follows: Discounting Rate (%) 15 IRR 16

PV Factor 3.35 3.29 3.27

Now, IRR is calculated using the method of interpolation as follows: IRR = 15% + [{(3.35 – 3.29)/(3.35 – 3.27)} × (16% – 15%)] = 15% + 0.75% = 15.75% Problem 16 For a project having an expected useful life of 5 years, an initial investment of Rs. 60,000 is required. It is expected to generate cash inflows of Rs. 12,000, Rs. 16,000, Rs. 20,000, Rs. 24,000 and Rs. 8,000, respectively, from the project at the end of each year of its useful life. If the cost of the capital is assumed at 10% p.a., then calculate the IRR from the project and make your comment on the acceptability of the project. The PV of Re. 1 at 10% and 11% discounting rates are as follows: Year PV Factor @10% p.a. PV Factor @11% p.a.

1 0.909 0.901

2 0.826 0.812

3 0.751 0.731

4 0.683 0.659

5 0.621 0.593

Solution IRR is the rate of return which equates the total PV of cash inflows with the total PV of cash outflows, that is, which makes the NPV zero. To find out that discounting factor, let us start the solution on a trial-and-error basis. Firstly, let us calculate the average PBP for obtaining a quotient as follows: Average PBP = Initial investment/Average annual cash inflow = Rs. 60,000/{(Rs. 12,000 + Rs. 16,000 + Rs. 20,000 + Rs. 24,000 + Rs. 8,000) ÷ 5} = Rs. 60,000/Rs. 16,000 = 3.75 From the PV factor of the annuity table for 5 years, we get: Sum of the PV at a 10% discounting rate for 5 years = 3.791 Sum of the PV at a 11% discounting rate for 5 years = 3.696 Here, the quotient of average PBP (i.e., 3.75) lies in between 3.791 and 3.696 as calculated earlier. Therefore, the IRR may lie in between the discounting factors at 10% and 11%. Let us calculate the total PV of cash inflows at the discounting factors of 10% as well as 11%.

Therefore, the IRR lies in between the discounting factors at 10% and 11%.

Comment Under NPV Method Here, both the projects are having a positive NPV and thus qualify for acceptance of both the investment proposals. But if these two investment proposals are mutually exclusive, then the investment in Project II should be chosen as the NPV of Project II is higher than that of Project I. ii. Computation of IRR for the Projects As both the projects are resulting in a marginally positive NPV at an 8% discounting rate, NPV would be zero at a higher discounting rate (i.e., IRR). We need to find out that discounting factor at which NPV = 0 (i.e., IRR) on a trial-and-error basis. Firstly, let us consider the discounting rate at 10% and accordingly the calculations can be made as follows for both the projects: Year 1 2 3 4 Less:

PV Factor @10% (a) 0.909 0.826 0.751 0.683 Total PV of CFAT Total Cash Outflows NPV

PV of CFAT Rs. 909 826 1,502 6,830 10,067 10,067 Nil

From the above calculation, it is transpired that NPV becomes zero for Project II, at a discounting factor of 10%. Therefore, IRR of Project II is 10%. On the other hand, NPV is still marginally positive for Project I, even at the discounting factor of 10%. For Project I, NPV would be zero at a higher discounting rate. Let us consider the discounting rate at 12% and accordingly, calculations can be made as follows for Project I: PV Factor @12% (a) 0.893 0.797 0.712 0.636

Year 1 2 3 4 Less:

PV of CFAT (a × b) Rs. 8,930 1,594 712 636 11,872 11,872 Nil

From the above calculation, it is transpired that NPV becomes zero for Project I at a discounting factor of 12%. Therefore, IRR of Project I is 12%. Comment Under IRR Method Under IRR method, the investment in Project I should be chosen, as its IRR (12%) is higher than that of Project II (10%).

CAPITAL BUDGETING

Overall Comment As per NPV method, Project II should be selected for the investment. To the contrary, as per IRR method, Project I should be selected for the investment. As the NPV method is superior than the IRR method, finally Project II should be chosen for the investment. Problem 18 A company is thinking of investing Rs. 20 lakhs in a project. The life of the project is 5 years at the end of which the estimated scrap value from the project will be zero. The tax rate is @50% and the straight-line method of depreciation is followed.

In such a situation, PBP is to be calculated with the help of either the forward method or backward method of interpolation as used in the following: Using Forward Method of Interpolation: PBP of fixed assets = 4 years + [{(20 – 15)/(21 – 15)} × 1] = 4 + 0.8333 = 4.8333 years

Discounted PBP From the above calculation, it has been observed that the initial investment of 20 (Rs. in lakhs) lies in between the cumulative PV of CFAT of 16.37 (Rs. in lakhs) and 20.717 (Rs. in lakhs), which could be recovered in between the period of 4th and 5th year. In such a situation, the discounted PBP is to be calculated with the help of either the forward method or the backward method of interpolation as used as follows: Using Forward Method of Interpolation: Discounted PBP of the project = 4 years + [{(20 – 16.37) ÷ (20.717 – 16.37)} × 1] = 4 + 0.835 = 4.835 years iv. NPV NPV = Total PV of cash inflows – Total PV of cash outflows = 20.717 (Rs. in lakhs) – 20 (Rs. in lakhs) = 0.717 (Rs. in lakhs) v. PI PI = Total PV of cash inflows/Total PV of cash outflows = 20.717 (Rs. in lakhs)/20 (Rs. in lakhs) = 1.03585 vi. IRR IRR is the rate of return which equates the total PV of cash inflows with the total PV of cash outflows, that is, which makes the NPV zero. To find out that discounting factor, let us start the solution on a trial-and-error basis. Firstly let us calculate the average PBP for obtaining a quotient as follows: Average PBP = Initial investment/Average annual cash inflow = 20 (Rs. in lakhs)/{28 (Rs. in lakhs) ÷ 5} = 20 (Rs. in lakhs)/5.6 (Rs. in lakhs) = 3.571 From the PV factor of the annuity table for 5 years, we get: Sum of the PV at a 12% discounting rate for 5 years = 3.605. Sum of the PV at a 11% discounting rate for 5 years = 3.696. As the NPV at the 10% discounting factor shows a reasonable amount of positive value, the IRR (i.e., where NPV = 0) should be at a higher discounting factor. Here, the quotient of average PBP (i.e., 3.571) is nearer to 3.605 and 3.696 at 12% and 11% discounting factors, respectively, as calculated earlier. Therefore, the IRR may exist nearer to the discounting factors of 12% and 11%. Let us calculate total PV of cash inflows at the discounting factors of 12% and 11%.

From the above calculation, it has been transpired that the initial cash outflow of 20 (Rs. in lakhs) lies in between the total PV of cash inflows of 19.614 (Rs. in lakhs) at the 12% discounting rate and 20.155 (Rs. in lakhs) at the 11% discounting rate. Therefore, the IRR lies in between the discounting factors at 12% and 11% and the picture becomes as follows: Total PV of Cash Inflows Rs. in Lakhs 19.614 20 20.155

Discounting Rate (%) 12 IRR 11

Now, IRR is calculated using the backward method of interpolation as follows: IRR = 12 – [{(20 – 19.614)/(20.155 – 19.614)} × (12% − 11%)] = 12 – (0.386/0.541) × 1% = (12 – 0.7135) × 1% = 11.2865% CHAPTER REVIEW SUMMARY 

Capital Budgeting is the technique of long-term planning and analysis of outflows and inflows of funds relating to some investment objectives. It is the planning of capital expenditure which provides a return over a number of years. Features of Capital Budgeting are as follows: (a) It is of a long-term nature; (b) It is a long-time gap between the initial investment and the return from the investment; (c) An investment decision may be taken for a single project proposal, or for two or more mutually exclusive project proposals; and (d) Acceptance or rejection of an investment proposal should be based on the maximization of value of the firm. Capital Budgeting has more importance due to the following reasons: (a) Capital Budgeting decisions involve a huge investment; (b) Capital investment involves a long-term investment of fund with the risk factor; (c) Capital Budgeting decisions are, in most cases, of irreversible nature due to an involvement of huge fund for a long-term period; (d) Capital Budgeting decision not only effects on the present earning of the firm, but also has an effect on the future profitability of the firm. Under Capital Budgeting technique, investments are classified into two parts, such as: (a) Revenue-expansion investment and (b) Cost-reduction investment. Capital Budgeting decisions are generally classified into the following three categories, such as: (a) Accept– reject decision; (b) Mutually exclusive decision; and (c) Capital-rationing decision.

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

For evaluating the acceptability of a long-term investment proposal under Capital Budgeting technique, the following three steps are to be followed: Step 1: Determination of the future expected cash flows from the investment proposals. Step 2: Determination of the required expected rate of return by the investors (i.e., cost of capital). Step 3: Application of the Capital Budgeting evaluation criteria to evaluate the investment proposals.

 

 

PV is the current value of a future receivable or payable amount. Such future receivable or payable amount expressed in the future price level is being converted at its PV with the help of the discounting factor or PV factor. When any future expected cash inflow or outflow is being converted at its PV with the help of the PV or discounting factor, then such converted PV of cash inflow or outflow is called the ‘discounted cash flow.’ Hence, the discounted cash flow is the PV of the future cash flow. Capital Budgeting techniques are broadly classified into two categories: (i) Non-discounted technique; and (ii) Discounted technique. Each of such category is again classified under different methods as discussed in the following i. Non-discounted techniques (i.e., without considering the time value of money): a. PBP method. b. Pay Back Profitability method. c. ARR method. ii. Discounted cash flow techniques (i.e., time-adjusted techniques): a. Discounted PBP method. b. PI method. c. NPV method. d. IRR method. e. TV method.

CHAPTER REVIEW QUIZ 1. State whether the following statements are true or false: a. In case of two mutually exclusive investment proposals, the proposal having a longer PBP should be accepted. b. In case of two mutually exclusive investment proposals, the proposal having the higher NPV should be rejected. c. In case of single-investment proposal, accept it if PI > 1. d. In case of single-investment proposal, accept it if NPV < 0. e. NPV method is superior to IRR method for a Capital Budgeting decision. f. In case of two mutually exclusive investment proposals, the proposal having a greater IRR should be accepted. g. Discounted PBP method ignores the time value of money. h. IRR is the discounting rate at which the total PV of cash inflows equals the total PV of cash outflows. Ans.: True: (c), (e), (f), (h); False: (a), (b), (d), (g). 2. Choose the correct alternative from the following: a. Annual CFAT: (i) Net PBDT – Depreciation; (ii) Net PAT + Depreciation; (iii) Net PBDT – tax. b. If the cash inflow p.a. from a project having an initial cash outlay of Rs. 1,50,000 is Rs. 50,000, then its PBP is: (i) 4 years; (ii) 2 years; (iii) 3 years. c. If the expected life a project is 7 years, during which it is expected to generate cash inflows of Rs. 30,000 p.a. and its PBP is 3 years, then its Pay Back Profitability is: (i) Rs. 1,20,000; (ii) Rs. 90,000; (iii) Rs. 2,10,000. d. If the total PV of cash inflows and cash outflows for a project are Rs. 1,42,000 and Rs. 1,20,000, respectively, the NPV of the project is: (i) 1.1833; (ii) Rs. 2,62,000; (iii) Rs. 22,000. e. If the total PV of cash inflows and cash outflows for a project are Rs. 1,50,000 and Rs. 1,00,000, respectively, the PI of the project is: (i) 1.50; (ii) 0.67; (iii) Rs. 50,000. f. PV of Re. 1 for 3rd at a 10% discounting rate is: (i) 0.917; (ii) 0.751; (iii) 0.826. Ans.: (a) (ii); (b) (iii); (c) (i); (d) (iii); (e) (i); (f) (ii).

Responsibility Accounting

13

LEARNING OBJECTIVES On completion of the study of the chapter, you should be able to understand: What is the meaning and concept of Responsibility Accounting? Prerequisites and assumptions of Responsibility Accounting. Advantages and limitations of Responsibility Accounting. Meaning and concept of Responsibility Centres. Different types of Responsibility Centre. Concepts of Controllable and Non-controllable Costs. What is Responsibility Reporting? Different types of Responsibility Reporting.

13.1 MEANING AND CONCEPT OF RESPONSIBILITY ACCOUNTING An organization uses various techniques of costing such as Standard Costing, Budgetary Control for Control of Costs and so on. Under these costing techniques, focus is given on the cost and not on the person who has the authority to control the costs. In every well-structured organization, the responsibilities of every person’s actions are clearly defined and a manager is engaged in every section of actions of the organization. Every such person is accountable to his/her superior authority for the responsibility assigned to him/her. Responsibility Accounting may be defined as a system of control where a responsibility is assigned to different executives of a concern for control of cost or increase of revenue. It is one of the basic components of a good control system. In this system, an executive is held responsible only for those activities for which he/she has been delegated a responsibility. Therefore, unlike other techniques of costing like standard costing and budgetary control where the emphasis is given on the devices of control of costs, Responsibility Accounting is a system of control where the focus is given on different persons who are responsible for the control of cost within the periphery of the responsibilities assigned to them. Say, the Production Manager of a concern prepares Materials Usage Budget and assigns the responsibility to Supervisor II of the factory for the control of usage of materials as per the material usage budget. In case of overconsumption of materials, the workers working under Supervisor II are made responsible for such an action and answerable to Supervisor II, who, in turn, is made responsible and answerable to the Production Manager, who is ultimately made responsible overall for such an overconsumption of materials and is answerable to his higher management. Hence, under Responsibility Accounting, every individual working in a concern is assigned some responsibilities, and he/she is accountable to his/her superior authority for any dereliction of responsibilities vested upon them. According to the Institute of Cost and Works Accountants of India (ICWAI), Responsibility Accounting is ‘a system of Management Accounting under which accountability is established according to the responsibility delegated to various levels of management and a management information and reporting system instituted to give adequate feedback in terms of delegated responsibility. Under this system, divisions or units of an

organization under a specified authority in a person are developed as Responsibility Centres and evaluated individually for their performance.’ According to Charles T. Horngreen, ‘Responsibility Accounting is a system of accounting that recognizes various responsibility centres throughout the organization and reflects the plans and actions of each of these centres by assigning particular revenues and costs to the one having the pertinent responsibility. It is also called Profitability Accounting or Activity Accounting.’ 13.2 PREREQUISITES OF RESPONSIBILITY ACCOUNTING Following are the prerequisites of Responsibility Accounting: i. Activities of an organization are to be segmented in different Responsibility Centres. ii. Clear-cut distinction between Controllable and Non-controllable Costs of the concerned Responsibility Centre should be made. iii. Areas of responsibility of each Responsibility Centre in the organization should be clearly defined. iv. The charge of each Responsibility Centre is to be given to a manager. v. A plan of objective should be set up for each Responsibility Centre. vi. The concerned manager must be motivated to attain the objectives of the Responsibility Centre. vii. Adequate device should exist in the organization to ascertain and evaluate the actual performance of the Responsibility Centre. viii. An adequate device should exist in the organization to provide Feedback Report to the management in respect of the actual performance of the Responsibility Centres. ix. An adequate device should exist in the organization for adopting corrective measures on the basis of the Feedback Report of the actual performance of the Responsibility Centres. 13.3 ASSUMPTIONS OF RESPONSIBILITY ACCOUNTING The development of a sound Responsibility Accounting System is based on the following assumptions: i. Goals and responsibilities set out by the management are attainable with efficient and effective performance. ii. Employees of the organization give their best effort to achieve the goals and responsibilities delegated upon them. iii. Employees are held responsible for the areas over which they exercise control. iv. Performance of the employees is evaluated by the higher management through Feedback Reports at regular intervals. v. Performance evaluation process of the employees is based on reward-providing nature. 13.4 ADVANTAGES OR BENEFITS OR PURPOSES OF RESPONSIBILITY ACCOUNTING Responsibility Accounting has the following advantages or purposes: i. It emphasizes the need of clearly defining and communicating the goals and objectives of the organization and its employees. ii. Under this system, the responsibility of each employee is clearly identified. iii. It compels the management to set out a definite plan and budget for each segment of organizational activities. iv. It facilitates a stronger control on cost, revenue and uses of assets. v. It evaluates the actual performance of each employee of the organization by comparing with the standards set out as the yardstick. vi. It provides greater motivation to the employees to work more harder to perform responsibilities vested upon them. vii. It helps to improve the quality of decision-making through focusing on the principle of ‘management by exception’ (MBE).

13.5 LIMITATIONS OF RESPONSIBILITY ACCOUNTING Responsibility Accounting suffers from the following limitations: i. Making of a clear-cut distinction between the Controllable and Non-controllable Costs of the concerned Responsibility Centre is really a difficult task. ii. It may fail in case of lack of coordination between the different employees and segments of the organization. iii. Employees may feel demotivated if unrealistic standards are set out for performance evaluation. iv. Preparation of Responsibility Accounting Report is not an easy task. v. Any delay in the submission of Responsibility Accounting Report to the management may deteriorate the existing problem. vi. Individual Responsibility Centres may give more emphasis on its own areas of responsibility rather than on the organizational goals. 13.6 RESPONSIBILITY CENTRE A Responsibility Centre is an area of responsibility of a concern delegated to and controlled by an individual who is accountable to his higher authority for such responsibility. Every activity of a concern is divided into a separate Responsibility Centre. The overall responsibility of each such a Responsibility Centre is assigned to a manager. Therefore, a Responsibility Centre is a segment of a concern over which a manager exercises responsibility, and he, in turn, is accountable to his higher authority for the activities of the Responsibility Centre. The basic feature of Responsibility Centres is that each of them uses inputs, such as materials, labour and overheads, to produce and sell the output in the form of goods. The inputs of Responsibility Centres are measured as costs and the outputs of Responsibility Centres are measured as revenues. Hence, in every Responsibility Centre, there should be an identifiable responsibility for cost or revenue or resource of the concern. 13.7 TYPES OF RESPONSIBILITY CENTRES For an effective control, Responsibility Centres are generally classified into three classes. These are: (a) Cost Centre; (b) Profit Centre; and (c) Investment Centre. Each of the above classes of Responsibility Centres is separately explained as follows. 13.7.1 Cost Centre A Cost Centre is a segment of an organization in which all costs are accumulated, and the manager of this segment is held responsible for the costs incurred though he has no responsibility for revenue generation. In a manufacturing concern, the production and service departments are classified as Cost Centres. Responsibility in a Cost Centre is restricted to cost only. A Cost Centre is not held directly responsible for revenue generation in the organization. Cost Centre managers have a control over some or all of the costs accumulated at the Cost Centre. Therefore, a Cost Centre is a responsibility level where the employees of that centre are concerned with the cost management alone. A Cost Centre is also called Expense Centre. In this segment of the Responsibility Centre, only the inputs are measured in monetary terms. The outputs of a Cost Centre are not measured in monetary terms, as services rendered by some departments of a Cost Centre (such as legal department) are not measurable in monetary value. The performance of a Cost Centre is measured in terms of quantity of inputs used for producing a given output. The performance of the manager of a Cost Centre is evaluated by comparing the costs incurred with the budgeted costs. 13.7.2 Profit Centre A Profit Centre is a segment of an organization in which both cost and revenue are measured in terms of monetary units and the manager of this segment is held responsible for both cost as well as revenue. In this Responsibility Centre, the inputs are taken as costs and the outputs are taken as revenue. Here, both inputs

and outputs are measured in terms of monetary units. The difference between the output (i.e., revenue) and input (i.e., cost) represents the profit earned. The manager of the Profit Centre is held responsible for the amount of profit earned by that Profit Centre. The Income Statement of a Profit Centre is used as a control device. A Profit Centre provides a more effective assessment of the manager’s performance, as both costs and revenues are measured in monetary terms in this segment of Responsibility Centre. Therefore, a Profit Centre is a responsibility level where both cost and revenue are measured in terms of monetary units, in which the performance is measured in terms of Budgeted Profit and the manager is held responsible for both cost and revenue. 13.7.3 Investment Centre An Investment Centre is a responsibility level of an organization where the manager is concerned not only with cost management and revenue generation, but also held responsible for the investment in assets used by the centre. Here, the manager is held responsible for both profit as well as the assets that are under his control. The manager of an investment centre possesses more authority and responsibility than the manager of either a Cost Centre or a Profit Centre. The performance of an Investment Centre is measured in terms of the Return on Investment (ROI) of the centre. The investment made in each centre and profit earned by each centre is separately ascertained, on the basis of which ROI of each centre is measured for the evaluation of the performance. For this purpose, the ROI of each centre is to be calculated in the following manner: Return on Investment (ROI) = Profit of the Investment Centre/Assets used in the Investment Centre × 100 13.8 CONTROLLABLE AND NON-CONTROLLABLE COSTS Making a distinction between Controllable and Non-controllable Costs is one of the prerequisites of the Responsibility Accounting System. Controllable Cost may be defined as the cost which can be influenced by the action of a specific employee of a Responsibility Centre. This type of cost can be changed by the head of a Responsibility Centre. He has the control to alter the price or the quantity or the both, within the area of his Responsibility Centre by his managerial action. Generally, all variable direct costs are controllable, such as cost of direct materials, direct labour and so on. But some direct costs like depreciation on plant and machinery are not controllable by the head of the Responsibility Centre as these costs are determined as per the policy of the organization. On the other hand, Non-controllable Costs are those which cannot be influenced by the action of a specific employee of a Responsibility Centre. This type of cost cannot be changed by the head of a Responsibility Centre. The manager of a Responsibility Centre has no control to alter this type of costs as these costs are set out by the top management as per the policy of the organization. Generally, most of the fixed indirect costs are noncontrollable. 13.9 RESPONSIBILITY REPORTING Responsibility Reporting implies the preparation of reports showing therein the performance of each Responsibility Centre. It includes the performance of managers who are accountable for that specific Responsibility Centre under their control. In short, reports prepared under Responsibility Accounting are called Responsibility Reporting. Responsibility Reporting is also called Responsibility Performance Reporting or Feedback Reporting. Responsibility Reports are prepared for the following purposes: i. To evaluate the level of performance in the area of responsibility of the concerned employees and the Responsibility Centre as a whole. ii. To formulate the remedial measures for improvement of the performance of the employees of the concerned Responsibility Centre.

13.10 TYPES OF RESPONSIBILITY REPORTS Responsibility Reports can be classified into four types. These are: i. Enumerative Reports: Enumerative Report is a type of Responsibility-Accounting Feedback Report presented in forms of lists, charts, schedules, tabulations and so on, where performance information is provided in a raw form without any comparison. ii. Analytical and Interpretative Reports: Analytical and Interpretative Report is a type of ResponsibilityAccounting Feedback Report generally presented in a diagrammatical format, where the performance information is provided through analysis and interpretation. iii. Comparative and Evaluative Reports: Comparative and Evaluative Report is a type of ResponsibilityAccounting Feedback Report where the performance of the Responsibility Centre is provided with comparative and evaluative information. iv. Problem-solving Reports: Problem-solving Report is a type of Responsibility-Accounting Feedback Report where the information is provided with problem-solving measures of the Responsibility Centre.
