Subject: Submission of report on Implications of the mechanics of Managerial Accounting.

Dear Ma’am,

We are hereby submitting the group project which has enabled us get a deeper understanding of
the managerial accounting principles and costing concepts. With this project were able to apply
our theoretical knowledge that we acquired in class to our existing practical environment. For the
completion of the project we used various types of costing techniques including budgeted
costing, future projection of different costing systems, price projections and total budget of our
manufactured product. It is true that without your support, it would have been very difficult for
us to carry out the project work. We are immensely grateful for support and guidance we have
received throughout the semester.

We want to thank you for your support and we are very happy to get the opportunity to work on
this project. We hope that our unwanted errors will be taken with forgiveness.

Sincerely Yours,
Team

1. Background of the Product

1.1 Introduction

We use pens and pencils every day to help us carry out different tasks, such as doing homework,
drawing a picture, or creating a sketch. Pen holders create a special place to hold those writing
utensils that we never seem to find when we really need them. Popsicle Pen holders are even
better since they are a great way to transform something from being ordinary to extraordinary
and can add a fun, spunky twist to the traditional holder. Our company Vintage Décor has come
into existence to manufacture what we call "Popsicle Pen holder" which we tend sell at a
competitive price while offering customers value for money. With our product people can say
good bye to their messy desk as our product allows our customer to keep their desktop clutter
free and stylish. The holder basically is used as a desk organizer for pen pencils, marker that
makes an individual's workspace more efficient. Therefore our product keeps everything well
organized, which will allow and individual to dress up their desk and office in a simple and
elegant way. Our product is also versatile in terms of its utility as an individual can store their
makeup items, knife scissors keys and even their mobile phones. As our product is introduced in
the market we are optimistic that it will stand out in terms of simplicity and functionality.

1.2 Reason for selecting the product

Our company has decided to manufacture the pencil holder for variety of reasons. The youths of
Bangladesh account for 30% of the entire population, and with the strengthening of the
Bangladesh economy the literacy rate is rapidly increasing every year. This means more people
are attending school every year. With this trend, it allows our company the perfect opportunity to
offer our product to these school goers to better organize themselves while carrying out their
coursework. This allows our company to create employment in Bangladesh as well at the same
time makes it convenient for student to carry out their assignments effectively and achieve higher
grades. Our product is not only limited to students, but rather provides utility to other groups of
individuals as well. Therefore our product can also be used in an office environment or can be
used to arrange makeup item and can also be used as a piece of décor. Another reason our
company decided to go for this product is simply due to the fact that the manufacturing process
is relatively simple. Because the value adding process is not very complicated, it also allows us
to produce the product at a lower cost.
2. Industry Analysis

As of now our company currently operates in the stationery, crafts and gifts industry. Due to the
fact that our product is designed to organize items as well as provide aid to students and as it is
also a handmade product our company will be competing in this industry. With a progressive
economy, and with the surge in the FDI in Bangladesh, more offices are being established,
literacy rate is increasing more people are attending school, therefore increasing the demand for
our product. Currently there are handful of competitors in the industry for now, but is likely that
more businesses will enter this industry as the market is expanding. Our aim right now is to
establish our self in the market so our company will be ready to bear stiff competition in the
future. Aarong, Home & Decor, Enfield, Good luck, are among the few competitors that stand in
the way of our company's profitability and market share prospects.

3. Manufacturing process

The manufacturing process for the pen holder not very complex rather it is simple. It is because
of the simplicity of the value adding process that helps our company to keep our cost low. As a
startup this simplified production process has allowed us to reduce confusion and therefore
maximize efficiency. The product is basically made of up of 3 parts; the base, Pencil holder and
Mobile holder. Our production is designed in such a way that certain groups of people work to
manufacture each item separately and then assemble them together.

The Manufacturing process of the product as follows:

1) Before our production processes start our team makes sure that all necessary items are
available to initiate the value adding process. The arrangements of Popsicle sticks, paper,
glue gun, paint and decorative items are made accordingly.
2) The line workers initially start by articulating the base of the product. First a piece of
paper is taken and then it is cut as per the size needed for the base. After that popsicles
sticks are adjusted with the size of the base to formulate a perimeter. Each Popsicle stick
are placed sequentially one after the other with the help of a glue gun to completely cover

the white spaces. It is also necessary to keep adding Popsicle sticks back of the base to
make it more robust and resilient.

3) After the base is ready, now the workers start to articulate the main part of the product,
i.e. the pencil holder case. Again a rectangular piece of paper is cut out, on top of which
the popsicles are sequentially laid out with the help the glue gun. Unlike the base made
earlier, this time Popsicle sticks are only laid out on the single side of the paper. Then the
ends of the rectangular surface are matched with each other to form a cylindrical
structure, which will therefore fulfil the job of the pencil holder.
4) Next, the workers start structuring the mobile case holder of the product. First two
parallel popsicles are laid out, which are then connected by a single stick to form an in
complete square. Taking this initial design as the framework, other popsicle- sticks are
stacked one after the other on top of each other until the shaped is hallowed. Then the
open ended side is again covered with the sticks after which the structure is completed.

5) At the end all the individual structures are assembled together to form the product as a
whole. The base is laid down and a cushion is added to it. After that on top of the base
then the cylindrical pencil holder case and the mobile case is fixated with the help of the
glue gun.
6) The final structured , is then painted, decorated and is made ready for shipping

4. Monthly Production Quantity


With our existing resource and available manpower we are able to produce 250 units of our
product every month .We will produce 250 pieces in a month. Our workshop will be open for
22 days, as 7 members work together to manufacture the product.

For the successful operation of the business our company has been partitioned into 4 functional
departments which includes; Internet & Telephone, Designing, Manufacturing and Selling
Department. Our company has identified Internet & Telephone and Designing Department as
support department as they tend to provide additional support for the smooth running of the other
two departments. While in the other hand we have classified Manufacturing and Selling
Department as operational department as they are directly involved in producing and selling the
product. In this report we have used all the 3 methods to allocate our Support Cost. But we
believe the adoption of the step down method will be more appropriate for our business. This is
due to the fact that Internet and Telephone department provides service to all the other
department, while the Designing Department only provides service to the Manufacturing and the
Selling department. In terms of practicality Designing Department does not contribute much to
the Internet & Telephone department.

The profit is more under activity-based costing is less than simple costing because cost

14. Pricing Strategy


Our company basically follows a cost based pricing strategy. In order to determine the
price of our product we add profit element to our cost base. We have added 46% markup
to our cost base to determine our retail price Here we have also made the decision to set
our cost base to full cost, so that every cost incurred is taken into account. One of the
reasons we chose this approach is due its simplicity. Mark-up pricing is a relatively simple
and a straight forward approach, which has made its execution easier. With this approach
we can also be confident that our selling price is able to cover our cost as well as bring us
our target profit. When deciding the price of our product, our company has made an effort
to realize just a considerable amount of profit so our price are competitive in the market.
As this is important for us to increase our customer base, in order to increase our
survivability prospects.

Retail price = Cost base (full cost) + Mark-up (46%)

TK 170 = 116.40 + 53.6

Vintage Crafts Aarong Home & Decor Enfield


Popscile penholder Wooden pen holder Plastic penholder Wooden penholder
- TK 170 - TK 355.770 -TK 300

-TK 225

If we compare our prices with that of our competitors, it is evident that our prices are more
competitive. While determining our mark-up element we were very cautious. We have set the
markup in such a way that it is competitive enough to attract new customers and significant
enough to earn us a decent amount of profit. As we are new to the business we have also adopted
a penetrating pricing strategy in which has allowed us to enter the market with a relatively low
price, which we will increase gradually in the future when we acquire sufficient market share.

17 . Break Even Point

Break Even Sales (in units) = Fixed Cost/Contribution Margin per unit

=9100/115

= 79.13units = 80 units

Break Even Revenue = Break even sales (in units) * Selling price

=80units*170 Taka = TK 13600


Our company has to sell 80 units of our product or have to hit the sales target of TK13600, for
our Revenue to be equal with our cost. Therefore in order to survive in the market our company
has to at least sell 80 units or Tk 13600 worth of Popsicle penholder.

18. Margin of Safety

Budgeted Sale =250 units * 170 Taka

= 42500

Taka Break Even Sale = 13600 Taka

= Budgeted sales –Breakeven revenue

= (42500 – 13600 ) = 28900

Percentage of margin of safety= (Margin of safety /Budgeted revenues)*100

= (28900 /42500)*100 = 68%

Our margin of safety is at 68%. As the number is relatively large it is evident that we will face
less risk. This number indicates that in order for our company to make loss our sales must
drop by more than 68% or else we will still be making profit.

19. Operating Leverage

Degree of operating leverage= Contribution Margin /Net Operating Income

= 28750/ 19650

= 1.46 Times

This variable indicates that if there is a 1% change in our sales revenue then our contribution
margin will result in 1.82 % change in operating income. While in the other hand, if the sales
revenue of our company decreases by 1% then both contribution margin, and our net operating
income will decrease by 1.82%. Therefore operating leverage it a perfect metric to measure the
sensitivity of our contribution margin to a change in sales revenue.

Our company has done sensitivity analysis taking two scenarios into consideration.
Here we will evaluate the effect on our Sales, Cost, and Net income if,

 There is an 25% increase in the demand of our product - First Scenario


 There is an 25% decrease in our demand for our product - Second Scenario
