Installment Sales
Chapter # 1

INSTALLMENT SALES
Goods purchase by buyer by paying a small amount of the total amount of goods at the time
of purchase of goods and agrees to pay the remaining amount in equal installments in equal
interval of time is known as installment. The first time payment is known as “down
payment”. In installment sales, the risk and rewards are transferred to the buyer.

COST OF INSTALLMENT SALES


The cost of merchandise sold on installment basis is called cost of installment sales. It is
obtained by adding net purchases in the merchandise inventory beginning and subtracting
merchandise inventory ending.

UNREALIZED GROSS PROFIT


Unrealized gross profit is referred to the total gross profit from the sale of merchandise on
installment basis which has not been collected. It is also known as “Deferred Gross Profit”.

REALIZED GROSS PROFIT


The profit on sale on merchandise on installment basis collected during the period out of
total unrealized gross profit is called realized gross profit. In other words, it is the profit
which has been collected during the period.

COMPUTATION OF COST OF INSTALLMENT SALES:


Merchandise inventory (beginning) XXX
Add: Net purchases during the period XXX
Merchandise available for sale XXX
Less: Merchandise inventory (ending) (XXX)
Cost of installment sales XXX

COMPUTATION OF UNREALIZED GROSS PROFIT (D.G.P.):


Unrealized gross profit (D.G.P.) = Installment sales – Cost of installment sales

COMPUTATION OF UNREALIZED GROSS PROFIT RATE (D.G.P. %):


Unrealized gross profit Rate (D.G.P. %) = Unrealized gross profit X 100
Installment sales

COMPUTATION OF CASH COLLECTION:


Cash collection (current year) = Installment sales – Installment accounts
receivable (ending)
OR
Cash collection (previous year) = Installment accounts receivable (beginning) –
Installment accounts receivable (ending) –
Installment accounts receivable cancelled
OR
Cash collection = Down payment + Installments received

COMPUTATION OF REALIZED GROSS PROFIT (R.G.P.):


Realized gross profit (R.G.P.) = Cash collection x Unrealized gross profit rate

COMPUTATION OF INSTALLMENT SALES / INSTALLMENT ACCOUNTS


RECEIVABLE (BEGINNING):
Installment sales/installment Unrealized gross profit
accounts receivable (beginning) = (D.G.P.)
Unrealized gross profit rate
(D.G.P.%)

COMPUTATION OF LOSS ON DEFAULT:


If the buyer is unable to pay the further installments and the seller is unable to repossess
his goods from the buyer, it is said to be default.

Installment accounts receivable cancelled XXX


Less: D.G.P. for go (Installment accounts receivable cancelled x D.G.P. %) (XXX)
Loss on default (XXX)

COMPUTATION OF GAIN OR LOSS ON REPOSSESSION:


If the buyer is unable to pay the further installments and the seller repossesses his goods
from the buyer, it is said to be repossession of merchandise.

Installment accounts receivable cancelled XXX


Less: D.G.P. for go (Installment accounts receivable cancelled x D.G.P. %) (XXX)
Book value XXX
Less: Merchandise repossessed at fair market value (XXX)
Gain/loss on repossession XXX/(XXX)

BRANCH ACCOUNTING
Branch accounting is an accounting system in which each department or Branch of a
business is established as a separate cost centre or budget centre. The net profit per Branch
may be added together to arrive at the profit for the whole business. Branch accounts may
be prepared to show the performance of both a main trading centre (i.e. the Head Office)
and subsidiary trading centre (i.e. Branches) but with all the accounting records being
maintained by Head Office. Alternatively, separate entity Branch accounts are prepared in
which Branches maintain their own records, which are later combined with Head Office
records to prepare accounts for the whole business.

ACCOUNTING SYSTEM FOR A BRANCH


There are two alternative systems:
1. The branch does not maintain a complete set of accounting records. The head
office serves only as an accounting and control center for the branches.
2. The branch maintains a complete set of accounting records consisting of journal
entries and ledger accounts. Financials statements are prepared by the branch
account and forwarded to the head office.

This chapter focuses on the second system that the branch maintains its own accounting
records.

RECIPROCAL LEDGER ACCOUNTS USED BY THE HEAD OFFICE AND BRANCH


 Head Office Ledger Account:
This account is used by the branch to account for all transactions with the home office. It is
credited for all cash, merchandise or other assets provided by the head office to the branch.
It is debited for all cash, merchandise, or other assets sent by the branch to the head office
or to other branches. This account represents the net investment by the head office in the
branch. At the end of a period, the balance of Income Summary account of a branch is closed
to the head office account.

 Branch Ledger Account:


This account is a reciprocal ledger account (to head office account) used by the head office
to account for any transactions with the branches. It is debited for cash, merchandise and
services provided to the branch by the head office and for the net income reported by the
branch. It is credited for cash, or other assets received from the branch, and for net losses
reported by the branch.

METHODS OF BILLING MERCHANDISE SHIPMENT TO BRANCH


Three alternative methods are available to head office in billing the merchandise shipped to
the branches:
1. Billed at head office cost.
2. Billed at a percentage above the head office cost.
3. Billed at the branch’s retail selling price.

ALLOWANCE FOR OVER VALUATION


Head Office sells merchandise to Branch more than selling price. This additional profit
which is earned by the Head Office from the shipment of merchandise to the Branch is
known as allowance for over valuation.

COMPUTATION OF ALLOWANCE FOR OVERVALUATION PERCENTAGE:

Cost price

COMPUTATION OF ALLOWANCE FOR OVERVALUATION:


Billed price x Allowance for
Allowance for overvaluation =
overvaluation percentage (%)

TRANSACTIONS BETWEEN BRANCHES


When it is necessary to transfer merchandise or assets from one branch to another branch,
Head Office Ledger account is used by the branches. The head office will transfer the
inventory (or assets) from investment in one branch to another branch. Any excess freight
costs incurred for the transfer between branches should be expensed.

ILLUSTRATION # 2: (INTER BRANCH TRANSACTIONS)


The Karachi Head Office of Umair Company consigned to Branch “A” goods costing
Rs.45,000 and freight paid Rs.3,750. Later on the Head Office directed the Branch “A” to
transfer the entire consignment to Branch “B”. The Branch “A” dully executed the directives
and paid additional freight Rs.750. If the goods had been sent to Branch “B” directly by the
Head Office, the freight charges would have been Rs.4,200.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Separate financial statements for branches should be prepared so that management can
evaluate the performance of each branch. The branch’s financial statements may be revised
by the head office to include the allocated expenses incurred by the head office. Also, the
financial statements of branches should be revised to eliminate any intra-company profits
on merchandise shipments or interest charge on capital investments.
For investors, the head office and branches are a single business entity. Thus, combined
financial statements should be prepared for external users.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS


An analysis of the financial statements of a business to assess its performance and position.
Ratios are normally calculated from the financial statements to assess the profitability,
solvency, working capital management, liquidity, and capital structure of an organization.

RATIO ANALYSIS
The use of accounting ratios is to evaluate a company’s operating performance and financial
stability. Such ratios as return on capital employed and gross profit percentage can be used
to assess profitability. The liquidity ratios can be used to examine solvency and gearing
ratios to examine the financial structure of the company. The analysis of ratios can indicate
how well a company is run, the risks of financial insolvency, and the financial returns
provided.
 Liquidity Ratio.
 Leverage Ratio.
 Activity Ratio.
 Investors/Shareholders Ratio.
 Profitability Ratio.

LIQUIDITY RATIO
Liquidity means the ability of the firm to pay its way. Liquidity ratios are the ratios that
measure a company’s liquid position.

LEVERAGE RATIO
Any ratio used to calculate the financial leverage of a company to get an idea of the
company's methods of financing or to measure its ability to meet financial obligations.
There are several different ratios, but the main factors looked at include debt, equity, assets
and interest expenses.

ACTIVITY RATIO
Activity ratios are the rate at which the company sells its stock and the efficiency with
which it uses its assets.

INVESTORS RATIO
Information to enable decisions to be made on the extent of the risk and the earning
potential of a business investment is investors’ ratio.

PROFITABILITY RATIO
Profitability ratio is a class of financial metrics that are used to assess a business's ability to
generate earnings as compared to its expenses and other relevant costs incurred during a
specific period of time. For most of these ratios, having a higher value relative to a
competitor's ratio or the same ratio from a previous period is indicative that the company is
doing well.

CASH FLOW
The movement of cash into and out of a business is called cash flow. The cash receipts of a
business are known as cash inflows. The cash inflows arise from transactions such as sales
of merchandise, receipts from debtors for credit sales and sales of fixed assets. The cash
payments made by a business is known as cash outflows which arise from transactions such
as purchase of materials, directs labour costs, overheads, and payments of taxes and
dividends.

CASH FLOW STATEMENT – IAS 7


Cash flow statement is a statement showing the inflows and outflows of cash and cash
equivalents for a business over a financial period. The inflows and outflows are classified
under the headings of operating activities, taxation, capital expenditure, and financial
investments, acquisitions and disposals, equity dividends paid, management of financing.
Cash flow statement consists of three parts:
 Cash flow from operating activities.
 Cash flow from investing activities.
 Cash flow from financing activities.

Cash Flow Statement
Chapter # 4

CASH FLOW FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES


Cash flow from operating activities is the section of the statement of cash flow that reports
the cash transactions affecting the determination of net income. The amount is computed by
adding back of net income the items on the income statement that did not result in an
outflow of cash and subtracting the items on the income statement that did not provide an
inflow of cash. Cash flow operating activities includes:
 Current assets.
o Except marketable securities.
 Current liabilities.
 Revenue and expenses (includes interest expense, revenue, and dividends received).

The figures below are the adjustments necessary to convert the profit figure to the cash
flow for the period:

Depreciation: Added back to profit because it is a non – cash expense.

Added back because it is not part of cash generated


Interest Expense: from operations (the interest actually paid is deducted
later).

Deducted because this is part of the profit not yet


Increase in Accounts Receivable:
realized into cash but tied up in receivables.

Added on because the decrease in inventories liberates


Decrease in Inventory:
extra cash.

Added on because the cash has been collected from


Decrease in Accounts Receivable:
customers.

Deducted because the decrease in inventories shows


Increase in Inventory:
outflow of cash.

Deducted because the reduction in payables must


Decrease in Accounts Payable:
reduce cash.

Added on because this is part of the expense not yet


Increase in Accounts Payable:
paid into cash but tied up in payables.

activities may include:
 Interest received.
 Dividend received.
 Sale of fixed assets.
 Purchase of fixed assets.
 Purchase of marketable securities.
 Sale of marketable securities.

CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that are capable of being converted into
known amounts of cash without notice. Cash equivalents may include marketable securities.
Cash equivalents are most important element of a cash flow statement.

INTERPRETATION USING THE CASH FLOW STATEMENT


The cash flow statement reveals:
 Whether the overall activities reveal a positive cash flow.
 Whether the operating activities yield a positive cash flow.
 The manner in which capital expenditure has been financed (for example, whether it
has come from internally-generated resources, borrowings, issue of shares or from
cash balance).

Cash flow statements allow users to evaluate:


 How the enterprise generates and uses cash and cash equivalents.
 Changes in net assets, financial structure (including liquidity and solvency) and the
ability of the enterprise to adapt to changing circumstances.
 The ability of the enterprise to generate cash.
 Forecasts of future cash flows.
 The accuracy of past assessments of future cash flows.

Accounting for Company – Amalgamation
Chapter # 6

AMALGAMATION
The combination of two or more companies in which the old companies merge to form a
new company is called amalgamation. For example Company “A” and Company “B”
amalgamate to form a Company “C”. All the assets and liabilities of both old companies (A
and B) are transferred to new company (C). In that sense the company “C” is acquiring the
company “A” and company “B”.

PURCHASE CONSIDERATION
Purchase consideration is the amount paid by the new company to both old companies. The
purchase consideration can be made in two different ways:
 Purchase consideration by net asset method.
 Purchase consideration by lump sum method.

a) PURCHASE CONSIDERATION BY NET ASSET METHOD


In this method the purchase consideration is calculated according to the value of net asset
(total assets – total liabilities). It means that the amount paid to the old companies is equal
to their book value (if liquidation expenses are not paid separately by new company) and
no goodwill or capital reserve arises.

COMPUTATION OF PURCHASE CONSIDERATION:


“A” Co. “B” Co.
Total assets XXX XXX
Less: Total liabilities (XXX) (XXX)
Net assets XXX XXX
Add: Liquidation expense XXX XXX
Purchase consideration XXX XXX

b) PURCHASE CONSIDERATION BY LUMP SUM METHOD


In this method the new company paid the amount of consideration without calculating the
net assets value. In this method there is a chance of goodwill or capital reserve.

COMPUTATION OF PURCHASE CONSIDERATION:


Company – A:
XXX no. of shares @ Rs.XX each. Rs.XXX

Company – B:
XXX no. of shares @ Rs.XX each. Rs.XXX

Accounting for Company – Absorption
Chapter # 7

ABSORPTION
The combination of two or more companies in which one company acquires the other
company and the other company absorbs in the acquiring company is called absorption. For
example Company “A” acquires the Company “B”. So that after the acquiring the name of
Company “B” will not exist but the name of Company “A” will exist. All the assets and
liabilities of old company (B) are transferred to absorbing company (A).

PURCHASE CONSIDERATION
Purchase consideration is the amount paid by the new company to both old companies. The
purchase consideration can be made in two different ways:
 Purchase consideration by net asset method.
 Purchase consideration by lump sum method.

a) PURCHASE CONSIDERATION BY NET ASSET METHOD


In this method the purchase consideration is calculated according to the value of net asset
(total assets – total liabilities). It means that the amount paid to the old companies is equal
to their book value (if liquidation expenses are not paid separately by acquiring company)
and no goodwill or capital reserve arises.

COMPUTATION OF PURCHASE CONSIDERATION:


“B” Co.
Total assets XXX
Less: Total liabilities (XXX)
Net assets XXX
Add: Liquidation expense XXX
Purchase consideration XXX

b) PURCHASE CONSIDERATION BY LUMP SUM METHOD


In this method the acquiring company paid the amount of consideration without calculating
the net assets value. In this method there is a chance of goodwill or capital reserve.

COMPUTATION OF PURCHASE CONSIDERATION:


Company – B:
XXX no. of shares @ Rs.XX each. Rs.XXX

COST ACCOUNTING
Cost accounting is the techniques used in collecting, processing, and presenting financial
and quantitative data within an organization to ascertain the cost of the cost centres, the
cost units, and the various operations. Cost accounting is now regarded as a division of
management accounting, which also incorporates the techniques of planning, decision
making, and control. Cost accounting is used to help management how much it cost to run a
business.

ROLE OF COST ACCOUNTING


Cost accounting is the area of accounting that record, measures and report information
about how much things cost within the organization. Cost accounting is used by
manufacturing, merchandising, and servicing companies, governments, universities and
non-profit organizations and profit organizations. The role of cost management plays in
helping an organization to maintain a competitive advantage by creating more value at
lower cost by efficiently managing an organization’s value chain of activities, processes, and
functions.

The information from the cost reports should be interpreted and presented in a way that
will be useful for management. Budget is the key for planning and controlling. The budget
contains cost accounting data. Management will not be able to set an optimal price for a
product or service cannot be decide without knowing the cost of what is to be sold.

IMPORTANCE OF COST ACCOUNTING


Managers rely on cost accounting to provide an idea of the cost of processes, departments,
operations or product which is the foundation of their budget, allowing them to analyze
fluctuation and the way funds are used socially for profit. Cost accounting is used in
management accounting, where managers justify the ability to cut costs for a company in
order to increase that company’s profit.

Cost accounting creates a financial value out of the production of a product, measuring
currency that is nominal into units that are measured by convention. By making recorded
historic costs a bit further, cost accounting allocates a company’s fixed costs over a specific
time period to what items are actually produced during that period of time, creating a total
cost of product production. Products that were not sold during that period of time produced
a “full cost” of those products, recording them in a complex inventory system that uses
accounting methods of its own that are in compliance with the GAAP standards. Managers
are then enabling to focus on each period’s results as it relates to the “standard cost” of any
product.

Any distortions in cost that were caused by calculating that the overhead of a product is
versus what a unit cost is for companies that specialize in only one specific product are very
minor in industries that mass produce that product with a low fixed cost. Understanding
why costs vary compared to what was actually planned helps a manager to save company
money by taking actions that are appropriate to correct that variation in the future.
Variance analysis is a very important part of cost accounting because it breaks down each
variance into many different components of standard cost and actual cost. Some of these
components are material cost variation, volume variation and labour cost variation.

OBJECTIVES OF COST ACCOUNTING


These are the following important objectives of cost accounting:

 Ascertainment of Cost:
The primary objective of the cost accounting is to ascertain cost of each product,
service, job, operation or service rendered.

 Ascertainment of Profitability:
Cost accounting determines the profitability of each product, process, job, operation
or service rendered. The statement of profit or losses and balance sheet also
submitted to the management periodically.

 Classification of Cost:
Cost accounting classifies cost into different elements such as materials, labours, and
expenses. It has further been divided as direct cost and indirect cost for cost control
and recording.

 Control of Cost:
Cost accounting aims at controlling cost by setting standards and compared with the
actual, the derivation or variation between two is identified and necessary steps are
taken to control them.

 Fixation of Selling Prices:


Cost accounting guides management in regard to fixation of selling prices of the
product. It is also helpful for preparing tender and quotations.

SCOPES OF COST ACCOUNTING


 Determination and Analysis of Cost:
Cost accounting records cost and income information for each department, process,
job, sales territory and lies order to ascertain cost and evaluate the operating
efficiency of each division of the business enterprise.

 Control of Cost:
In age of competition, the objective of business is to maintain; in costs at the lowest
point with efficient operating conditions. It requires examination of each individual
item of cost in the light of the service and benefits obtained so the maximum
utilization of the money expended on – it may be recovered. This requires planning
and use of standard for each item of cost for locating deviations, if any, and taking
remedial measures.

 Proper Matching of Cost With Revenue:


It prepares monthly or quarterly statements to reflect the cost and income data
identified with the sale of that period.

 Aids to Management:
Cost accounting enables a business not only to ascertain what various jobs, products
and services have cost to the business but also what they should have cost. It locates
losses and wastages for taking corrective measures and to avoid them in future.

COST CLASSIFICATION
The process of grouping expenditure according to common characteristics is called cost
classification. Cost can be classified into the following categories:

COST CLASSIFICATION BY ELEMENT:


 Material:
The production supplies of an organization that features as revenue expenditure
purchased from a third party. Material may be classified as direct materials or
indirect materials. Materials are not necessarily raw materials, but can include
components and sub-assemblies used in the finished product.

 Labour:
Expenditure on wages paid to those operators who are both directly and indirectly
concerned with the production of the product, service, or cost unit.

 Overheads:
An indirect cost of an organization is called overhead. Overheads are usually
classified as manufacturing overheads, administration overheads, selling overheads,
distribution overheads, and research and development cost.

COST CLASSIFICATION BY NATURE:


 Direct Cost:
Product costs that can be directly traced to a product or cost unit is called direct
cost. They are usually made up of direct materials cost, direct labour costs, and
direct expenses.

a) Direct Material:
Materials that are directly incorporated in the final product or cost unit of an
organization is called direct materials. For example, in the production of
furniture, direct material would include wood, glue, and paint.

www.a4accounting.net
Page 211
Accounting for Manufacturing Operation
Chapter # 9
b) Direct Labour:
Worker directly concerned with the production of a product, service, or a
cost unit is called direct labour such as machine operators, assembly and
finishing operators, etc.

c) Direct Expenses:
Expenditure that would not be incurred unless a particular cost unit was
produced (excluding costs of direct materials and direct labours) is called
direct expenses. Direct expenses are included in the direct cost of an item.

 Indirect Cost:
Expenses that cannot be traced directly to a product or cost unit and are therefore
overheads are called indirect cost.

a) Indirect Materials:
Those materials that do not feature in the final product but are necessary to
carry out the production is known as indirect materials such as machine oil,
cleaning materials, and consumable materials.

b) Indirect Labour:
Personnel not directly engaged in the production of a product or cost unit
manufactured by an organization is called indirect labour. Examples of
indirect labour include maintenance personnel, cleaning staff, and senior
supervisors.

c) Indirect Expenses:
Expenses that cannot be traced directly to a product or cost unit and are
therefore overheads are called indirect expenses or indirect cost.

COST CLASSIFICATION BY FUNCTION:


 Production Cost:
The total cost of all costs incurred in producing a product or cost unit is called
production cost. Production costs include:
a) Direct materials.
b) Direct labour.
c) Direct expenses.
d) Production overheads.

 Non – Production Cost:


The indirect costs of an organization that are not classified as manufacturing cost is
called non-production cost. They include administrative cost, selling cost, and
distribution cost.

a) Administrative Cost:
That part of general cost of an organization that is incurred in carrying out its
administrative activities. It includes general office salaries, stationary,
telephone, etc.

www.a4accounting.net
Page 212
Accounting for Manufacturing Operation
Chapter # 9
b) Selling Cost:
The expenses incurred by an organization in carrying out its selling activities.
These would include salaries of sales personnel, advertising costs, sales
commission, etc.

c) Distribution Cost:
The cost classification that includes the costs incurred in delivering a product
to the customers. Examples include postage, transport, packaging and
insurance.

COST CLASSIFICATION BY BEHAVIOUR:


 Variable Cost:
An item of expenditure that, in total, varies directly with the level of activity
achieved. For example, direct materials cost will tends to double if output doubles, a
characteristics being that is incurred as a constant rate per unit.

 Fixed Cost:
An item of expenditure that remains unchanged, in total, irrespective of changes in
the levels of production or sales. Examples are business rates, rent, etc.

 Semi – Variable Cost:


An item of expenditure that contains both a fixed cost element and a variable cost
element is called semi-variable cost. Consequently, when activity is zero, the fixed
cost will still continue to be incurred. For example, the telephone bill, in which line
rent is fixed while the unit cost is variable.

 Stepped Cost:
Stepped cost is an item of expenditure that increases in total as activity rises but in a
stepped, rather than a linear function. For example the cost of one supervisor may
be required for a particular range of activity, although above this level the cost of an
additional supervisor would be incurred.

WORK – IN – PROCESS
Work in process is the balance of partly finished work remaining in a manufacturing
operation at a particular time. It is valued using either FIFO cost, LIFO cost or the average
cost method.

FINISHED GOODS
Products that have completed the manufacturing process and are available for distribution
to customers is called finished goods.

RAW MATERIALS
Direct materials used in a production process, which are at low level of completion
compared to the final product or cost unit. Examples include steel plate, wood, and
chemicals.

levels of cost or income for any activity and the actual costs incurred or income achieved. If
the actual performance is better than standard then a favourable variance results, while if
actual performance is worse than standard there is an adverse or unfavourable variance.

MATERIAL PRICE VARIANCE


In a standard costing system, a variance arising as a part of the direct materials total cost
variance is known as materials price variance. It is the difference between the standard
price of the materials and the actual price of the materials purchased.

Material Price Variance = (Standard Material Price – Actual Material Price) x Actual
Material Quantity

MATERIAL QUANTITY VARIANCE


In standard costing systems, part of the direct materials usage variance; it is the difference
between the total standard quantity of material allowed for a process in standard
proportions and the actual materials used, also in standard proportions, valued at standard
prices.

Material Quantity Variance = (Standard Material Quantity – Actual Material


Quantity) x Standard Material Price

TOTAL MATERIAL VARIANCE


It is the difference between the total standard cost of the materials and the total actual cost
of the materials.

Total Material Variance = Total Standard Cost – Total Actual Cost

OR

Total Material Variance = Material Price Variance + Material Quantity Variance

LABOUR RATE VARIANCE


It compares the actual rate paid to direct labour for an activity with the standard rate of pay
allowed for that activity for the actual hours worked.

Labour Rate Variance = (Standard Labour Rate – Actual Labour Rate) x


Actual Hours Worked

Chapter # 11

LABOUR EFFICIENCY VARIANCE


It compares the actual labour time taken to carry out an activity with the standard time
allowed and values the difference at the standard direct labour rate per hour.

Labour Efficiency Variance = (Standard Labour Hours – Actual Labour Hours) x


Standard Labour Rate

TOTAL LABOUR VARIANCE


It is the difference between the total standard cost of the labour and the total actual cost of
the labour.

Total Labour Variance = Total Standard Cost – Total Actual Cost

OR

Total Labour Variance = Labour Price Variance + Labour Efficiency Variance

OVERHEAD VARIANCE
The total variance that arises in respect of fixed and variable overheads; it represents the
difference between the standard overhead recovered for the actual units produced and the
actual overhead incurred for a period.

Overhead Variance = Total Standard Cost – Total Actual Cost

(There are many overhead variances but are not relevant according to the examination
point of view but still showing their formulas).

Fixed Overhead Capacity Variance = Budgeted Expenditure – (Actual Hours x


Fixed Overhead Absorption Rate per Hour)

Fixed Overhead Efficiency Variance = (Standard Hours for Actual Production x


Fixed Overhead Absorption Rate per Hour) –
(Actual Hours x Fixed Overhead Absorption
Rate per Hour)

Fixed Overhead Expenditure Variance = Actual Expenditure – Budgeted Expenditure

Fixed Overhead Volume Variance = Budgeted Expenditure – (Actual Units x


Fixed Overhead Absorption Rate per Unit)
OR
Fixed Overhead Volume Variance = Budgeted Expenditure – (Standard Hours for
Actual Production x Fixed Overhead
Absorption Rate per Standard Hour)

Variable Overhead Expenditure Variance = (Standard Rate – Actual Rate) x Actual


Hours

Variable Overhead Efficiency Variance = (Standard Hours – Actual Hours) x


Standard Rate

PROCESS COSTING
A costing system sometimes applied to production carried out by a series of chemical or
operational stages or processes. Its characteristics are that costs are accumulated for the
whole production process and that average unit costs of production are computed at each
stage. Special rules are applied in process costing to the valuation of work in process,
normal loss and abnormal losses.

EQUIVALENT UNITS
Unfinished units of production that remain in a process at the end of a period as work in
process are called equivalent units. Degree of completion are assigned to each cost
classification, which, when applied to the number of units in work in process, give an
equivalent number of completed units. The equivalent units have an impact on the
valuation of opening and closing work in process.
