CHAPTER 2
COST CONCEPTS
•Every company will incurred costs
•Company has to know its costs for producing products
•Why???? To improve performance
•Company focused on cost leadership will focused on
-Cost reduction
-Simplify processing
•Most manufacturing companies divide costs into 3 broad
categories:
oDirect materials
oDirect labor
oManufacturing overhead
•What is direct materials, direct labor and manufacturing
overhead
•DM= those materials that become an integral part of the
finished products and that can be physically and conveniently
traced to it.
•Example: bread, direct material flour
•Chair: direct material wood
oDirect materials
•Direct labor or labor cost that can be physically and conveniently
traced to individual units of products
•Example: assembly line workers/operators
oDirect labor
•Various names for manufacturing OH: indirect manufacturing
costs, factory overhead and factory burden
•Non-manufacturing costs;
-marketing or selling cost
-administrative costs
•summary; handout/text book; page 40, exhibit 2-1
oManufacturing overhead
PRODUCT COST VERSUS PERIOD COST
•Distinction between manufacturing and non-manufacturing cost – other
way to look at a cost; product and period cost
•When will cost being recognized???
Product costs
•Include all the cost that are involved in acquiring or making a product
•Examples……….
•Product cost are viewed as attaching to units of product as the goods are
purchased or manufactured
•Remain attach to the goods to the inventory awaiting sale
•Product cost will assign to inventory in balance sheet
•When the goods was sold, cost released from inventory as expenses (cost
of good sold), will be matched against sales revenue
•Product cost also known as inventoriable costs
Period cost
•All the costs that are not included in product costs
•These costs are expensed on the income statement at the period in which they
are incurred
•Examples…….
Cost classification on financial statement
•FS in manufacturing company is more complex
•Manufacturing company produce products
•The production process includes so much costs that are not incurred in
merchandising company
Balance sheet
•In merchandising company just one type of inventory
•Manufacturing company has 3 class of inventory:
Raw materials
Work in progress
Finished goods
-Refer example in page 41

merchandising and manufacturing
company?.....
Assignment 2:
• What is the different between costs and
expenses?
COST CLASSIFICATION FOR PREDICTING COST BEHAVIOUR
What is cost behavior; cost behavior refers to how a cost will react to
changes in a level of activity
•Costs are often categorized into 3 categories: fixed cost, variable cost
and mixed cost
Activity can be expressed in many ways, such as unit produced, units
sold, miles driven, beds occupied, hours work, lines of print etc
Variable cost = is a cost that varies in total, in direct
proportion to changes in the level of activity
-Examples…..
-Variable cost ordinarily mean that it is variable with respect to the
amount of good or services the organization produced
-Examples…..
Fixed cost are not affected by changes in activity
Examples: good example is rent
Very few costs are completely fixed
Most will change if there is a large enough change in activity
So can conclude..fixed cost becomes fixed within some relevant range
Fixed cost = is a cost that remain constant, in total,
regardless of changes in the level of activity.
Cost Classification For Assigning Costs To Costs Objects
•Costs assigning to cost object for a variety of purpose including
pricing, profitability etc
•Cost objects means anything for which cost data are desired
•Examples: customers, jobs, product lines, departments, unit etc
•Assigning cost to cost object, classified into 2 categories: direct
cost and indirect cost
DIRECT COST & INDIRECT COST
-Direct cost is a cost that can be easily and
conveniently traced to the particular cost
objects under consideration
-Indirect costs is a cost that cannot be
easily and conveniently traced to the
particular cost objects under consideration
ASSIGNMENT 3:
• GIVE DEFINITION; SUNK COST,
OPPURTUNITY COST & INCREMENTAL
COST
COST BEHAVIOUR
ANALYSIS & USE
-Mixed cost:
oMixed cost contain fixed cost and variable
cost
oAlso known as semi variable costs
oFormula –relationship between mixed costs
and level of activity can be express by
equation:
•Fixed cost, variable cost and mixed cost
Y = a + bX
Y = total mixed cost
a = total fixed cost
b = variable cost per unit of activity
X = level of activity
•Analysis of mixed cost
-Scatter graph plot
-Regression
-High-low method

-formula to REMEMBER!!!!
VARIABLE COST = CHANGE IN COST/CHANGE IN ACTIVITY
VARIABLE COSTING:
A TOOL FOR MANAGEMENT
•2 general approaches used by the manufacturing
companies for costing products for valuing
inventories and cost of goods sold
•Absorption costing and variable costing
•Absorption costing used for external reporting
•Variable used by managers to make internal
decisions
ABSORPTION COSTING
•Treats all manufacturing costs as
product cost regardless whether there
are fixed or variable
•Known as full cost method
VARIABLE COSTING
•Only those manufacturing costs that vary with
output are treated as product cost
•Usually include DM, DL and the variable
portion of manufacturing OH
•Fixed manufacturing OH are not treated as
product cost and treated as period cost
•Known as marginal costing or direct costing
Absorption costing Variable

Unit cost computation
Example:
Sasa company, a small company
that produces a single product and
has the following in cost structure:
RM
No of unit produced each year 6,000
Variable cost per unit:
DM 2
DL 4
Variable manufacturing OH 1
Variable selling and admin expenses 3
Fixed cost per year
Fixed manufacturing OH 30,000
Fixed selling and admin expenses 10,000
Required:
•Compute the unit product cost under absorption costing
•Compute the unit product cost under variable costing
Solution:

To illustrate,
Sasa company, a small company that produces a single product and
has the following in cost structure:

Variable cost per unit:
DM 2
