Operating Budget Example

Hawaii Diving expects 1,100 units to be sold during the month of August 2013.Selling price is expected to be $240 per unit.How much are budgeted revenues for the month?1,100 × $240 = $264,000

8


Operating Budget Example

Two pounds of direct materials are budgeted per unit at a cost of $2.00 per pound, $4.00 per unit.Three direct labor-hours are budgeted per unit at $7.00 per hour, $21.00 per unit.Variable overhead is budgeted at $8.00 per direct labor-hour, $24.00 per unit.Fixed overhead is budgeted at $5,400 per month.Variable nonmanufacturing costs are expected to be $0.14 per revenue dollar.Fixed nonmanufacturing costs are $7,800 per month.

Production Budget Example

Assume that target ending finished goods inventory is 80 units.Beginning finished goods inventory is 100 units.How many units need to be produced?

Units required for sales 1,100Add ending inv. of finished units 80Total finished units required 1,180Less beg. inv. of finished units 100Units to be produced 1,080

11


Direct Materials Usage Budget

Each finished unit requires 2 pounds of direct materials at a cost of $2.00 per pound. Desired ending inventory equals 15% of the materials required to produce next month’s sales.September sales are forecasted to be 1,600 units.What is the ending inventory in August?480 pounds

12


Direct Materials Usage Budget

September sales: 1,600 × 2 pounds per unit= 3,200 pounds

3,200 × 15% = 480 pounds (the desired ending inventory)What is the beginning inventory in August?1,100 units × 2 × 15% = 330 unitsHow many pounds are needed to produce 1,080 units in August?1,080 × 2 = 2,160 pounds

Financial Planning Models

Financial planning models are mathematical representations of the interrelationships among operating

activities, financial activities, and other factors that affect the master budget.

22


Example: Cash Budget

Depends on collection pattern:

In the month of sale: 50%In the month following sale: 27%In the second month following sale: 20%Uncollectible: 3%

Exercise: Prepare a purchases budget in pounds for July, August, and September, and give total purchases in both pounds and dollars for each month.

Lubriderm Corporation has the following budgeted sales for the next six-monthperiod:

There were 30,000 units of finished goods in inventory at the beginning of June.Plans are to have an inventory of finished products that equal 20% of the unitsales for the next month.Five pounds of materials are required for each unit produced. Each pound ofmaterial costs $8. Inventory levels for materials are equal to 30% of the needsfor the next month. Materials inventory on June 1 was 15,000 pounds

Month Unit Sales June 90,000 July 120,000 August 210,000 September 150,000 October 180,000 November 120,000

Activity-Based Budgeting

Activity-based costing reports and analyzes past and current costs.

Activity-based budgeting (ABB) focuseson the budgeted cost of activities necessaryto produce and sell products and services.

31



Product A Product BUnits produced: 880 200Labor-hours per unit: 3 3Budgeted setup-hours: 5 5Total budgeted machine setup related cost is $25,920 per month.

Total budgeted labor-hours are:Product A: 880 × 3 2,640Product B: 200 × 3 600Total 3,240What is the allocation rate per labor-hour?• $25,920 ÷ 3,240 = $8.00

32



Total cost allocated to each product line:Product A: $8.00 × 2,640 = $21,120Product B: $8.00 × 600 = $ 4,800

Under ABB, the number of setups is the cost driver.$25,920 budgeted machine setup cost÷ 10 budgeted machine setup-hours= $2,592 allocation rate per machine setup-hour.How much machine setup related costs are allocated to each product line?

33



Product A Product B$12,960 $12,960 $2,592 × 5 $2,592 × 5

Setup-related cost per unit:Product A: $12,960 ÷ 880 $14.73Product B: $12,960 ÷ 200 $64.80

What is a Responsibility Center?

It is any part, segment, or subunitof a business that needs control.

– production– service

35


Types of Responsibility Centers

Cost CenterProfit CenterInvestment Center

36


What is Controllability?

It is the degree of influence that a specificmanager has over costs, revenues,

or other items in question.

A controllable cost is any cost that isprimarily subject to the influence of agiven responsibility center manager

for a given time period.

37


Controllability

Responsibility accounting focuses oninformation and knowledge, not control.

A responsibility accounting system couldexclude all uncontrollable costs from

a manager’s performance report.

In practice, controllability is difficult to pinpoint.

38


Human aspects of Budgeting

Budgeting should not be considered as a „mechanical tool“Quality of the budget depends on the information that is fed into the process There are incentives for dishonest reports• Budgetary slack• Empire building

Management aims to ensure honest reporting by lower level management• Via appropriate performance measures• Monitoring

39


True or False ???

A budget that covers the financial aspects is a qualitative expression of a proposed plan of action by management for a specified period.

The master budget reflects the impact of only operating decisions.

Feedback in the budgeting process may cause a firm to alter its strategies and plans.

Statistical analysis should be the only input used to forecast sales.

Sensitivity analysis allows managers to see how results will change if predicted data are not achieved or an underlying assumption changes.

Pick your Choice I:

When a budget is administered wisely, it will • discourage strategic planning.• provide a framework for performance evaluation.• discourage managers and employees.• eliminate coordination and communication between subunits.

If a firm is using activity-based budgeting, the firm would use this in place of which of the following budgets? • Direct materials budget• Revenue budget• Direct labor budget• Manufacturing overhead budget

41


Pick your Choice II:

BDH Corporation, which makes only one product, Kisty, has thefollowing information available for the coming year. BDH expects salesto be 30,000 units at $50 per unit. The current inventory of Kisty is 3,000units. BDH wants an ending inventory of 3,500 units. Each unit of Kistytakes two units of component L. Component L is budgeted to cost $12per unit. Current inventory of L is 4,000 units. BDH wants 6,000 units ofL on hand at the end of the next year. How much will the direct materialsbudget show as the cost of materials to be purchased?

• $330,000• $390,000• $684,000• $756,000

Who Gets the Money? New York Post, April 29, 2001

In the above-cited article, ABC and its parent company, Walt Disney Company, say that the show "Who Wants to be a Millionaire," is the most profitable television show ever - generating almost $1 billion in revenue in a little less than two years on the air.Each individual show costs about $700,000 to produce, including prize money and host Regis Philbin's salary. Each show earns $2 million in advertising revenue. The rights to air Millionaire are also sold to Canada for $250,000 per episode.The Millionaire show also sells a CD-ROM game for $20. About 4 million of these games have been sold.There is also an on-line version of the game that Millionaire fans can play. Users of the game don't pay, but each "hit" is noted when advertising space is sold for the site.The article also points out that Disney also sells hats and t-shirts of the game, and markets a special version of "Millionaire" to corporations that can be played at conventions by employees and clients.

43


“Who Gets the Money?“ - Questions

1. The Millionaire show itself generates about $1.3 million per episode in net income ($2 million in revenue, $700,000 in expenses.) Give a reason why this should be considered a profit center for evaluating a manager's performance.

2. Do you think that one manager has responsibility for the Millionaire show, as a profit center, or is it divided as a cost center and as a revenue center?

3. Should the ancillaries of the show (the t-shirts, CD-ROM, etc.) be evaluated as a profit center, cost center or revenue center? Why?
