Lesson
What is Controlling?
For example: your production deadline is coming very soon. You know
you can not produce the required output needed on time. This can
cause shiftment delay and would entail additional cost in your part.
Your only solution is to hire additional sewers to accommodate
unexpected orders. This action may caused increased in your labor
cost but you have to do it to avoid possible losing of customer and bigger
air shiftment cost.
7. Economical Control – The benefits that can be derived from doing the
corrective action should be greater than its cost.
Example: Firing high salaried and skilled employee and hiring semi-
skilled employees
In this situation, a skilled employee is asking you again for a salary
raise, you know that you can not afford to do it at this present pandemic
time, he eventually resigned from his post, you know that you will be
needing him in the future when business normalizes but at this point
in time you have to let him go and train a semi-skilled worker. Training
him will cause you money but in the long run, you will have a highly
skilled employee with reasonable salary.
8. Strategic Control Points – This means that the organization should not
put an equal priority to every deviation. Any discrepancy that could
cause serious effect in the organization should be given the priority as
compared to the less serious ones. For example, if you lose
9. Control must be simple to understand – Every employee should be able
to comprehend and understand the control system easily. This can be
done through meetings, announcements and memoranda
Importance of Control
3. Lower operating costs: Efficient operation process will help save more
cost in direct and Indirect labor and also with the materials.
Apply the correct letter to form the right word or words that fits to its
meaning.
1. _O N_T R _ _ – Is a management task that helps identify errors and find solutions
to improve, if not totally eradicate the situation.
2. H _ R _ L D K _ _N T _ - Defines controlling as the measurement and correction
of performance in order to make sure that enterprise objectives and the plans devised
to attain them is accomplished
3. D _ V I _ T _ O N - The difference between the actual performance of the
organization and its goals.
4. F _ R M A _ F _ E _ D B _ C _ - Are based on Financial statement, statistics
and reports.
Choose the term that best describes each given statement. Write ONLY the

1. Traditional Techniques
2. Modern Techniques
Traditional Techniques – are those which are already been doing by the
company for a long time now. These includes:
Fixed Costs –are expenses that have to be paid by the company independent of
any specific business activities. This cost will not change even if you
Variable Cost – are expenses that changes when production output increases
or decreases. When the company produces more goods then variable cost will
also increase. On the other hand, if production output is low and so is variable
cost. Example of variable cost is the cost of Raw materials and packaging.
In the table above please note that as raw materials, accessories and labor
increase, variable cost also increases. Fixed cost remain steady regardless
of the increase in the production factors.
How are we going to compute for variable cost per unit? Get the total variable
cost then divide it with the total yielded output. In the above case, the total
variable cost is Php900. Hence, 900/6 is equals to 150.
How much the customer is willing to pay for a certain product or service.
We will use the example above and this is calculated as:
This means that you have to produce at least two back packs to meet the
break- even point.
4. Cash Budget – This is the expected inflow and outflow of cash within
the budgeted period. The usual cash inflow in the budget depends
on how many cash sales are made and collection of receivables. The
outflows on the other hand are the expected expenses to be incurred
within the accounting period like salaries, utilities and payment of
other payables. The finance and accounting department should
come up with a cash budget that would serve and cater the needs of
the production.
5. Capital Budget – The amount of money to spend on major long-
term assets like a new factory or major equipment
e. PERT & CPM - These will help perform the different functions of
management in planning, scheduling & implementing time-bound
activities involving the performance of a variety of complex, diverse and
interrelated activities.
_________2. Selling price is the amount that the buyer wants to pay for a
certain product.
_________3. The formula in computing variable cost per unit is : Total variable
cost/Total quantity produced.
__________5. The cost per unit plus profit margin is equals to selling price per
unit.

belong to Fixed cost or Variable cost. Write your answer in column B
