Question No: 41 ( Marks: 10 )

Define the following term with examples

1- Sunk cost
 2- Implicit cost

3- Explicit cost

4- Opportunity cost

5- Historic cost

Answer :

1- Sunk cost : Sunk cost refers to the cost that has been spent in the
past and that cannot be retrieved on product or service in the current
period. This cost should not be taken into account while making the
decisions by management.

Example

Stationary bought in bulk last month. In this case the cost has been
incurred and will not be important to management decisions being made
for the future..

2-Implicit cost : Implicit cost is the cost imposed on a firm for foregoing an
alternative but where the actual payment for the alternative taken is not involved

Example :

Use of companys capital for investment

Use of the owners time

Use of the owners land for investment

3-Explicit cost : This is subject to actual payment or will be paid in the future.
Example : 1) Actual payment made to buy land for expansion of the company
instead of using the owners land.

2) Payment made for wage, rent or material etc.

4-Opportunity cost : Opportunity cost is the cost of sacrificing a benefit by

choosing some other alternative. This is the cost of foregoing an alternative in
favour of some other alternative.

Example : 1) If the owner of a company further invests money in his business

instead of keeping it in the bank in a savings account then the opportunity cost in
this case will be the yearly interest that the bank would have paid to him had he
chosen the alternative of keeping the money in the savings account. The
investment made in the business should give him more return than the
opportunity cost if it is to be deemed a better investment.

2) Instead of investing in his hotel for increasing profits, if an owner invests in

some other investment then the loss of the increase in profits in the hotel is an
opportunity cost for the owner.

5-Historic cost : Historic cost is the cost that is incurred at the time of making
transaction and can be verified through purchase agreement or invoice. It is used
in financial accounting for valuing assets of the company as opposed to market
value which is used in financial management. The

Examples : 1) Cost paid to acquire a land for investment purpose.

2) Cost incurred to buy Machinery as capital expenditure for

manufacturing business

Question No: 41 ( Marks: 10 )

The Mars Company applies factory overheads to production by means of pre-
determined rate based on expected actual capacity. Factory overhead at
expected actual capacity of 120,000 hours is Rs. 240,000 of which Rs. 60,000 is
fixed and Rs. 180,000 is variable. Normal capacity of the company is 150,000
hours. The actual capacity attained during the year was 100,000 hours and
actual factory overhead was Rs. 180,000.

Calculate: Pre-determined overhead rate based on expected actual capacity and

normal capacity.
1. Over-applied or under-applied factory overhead based on rate
used by the company.
2. Budget variance and volume variance.

Pre-determined overhead rate based on expected actual capacity

Fixed FOH rate = fixed FOH cost/ expected actual capacity

= 60000/120000 = 0.50
Add variable FOH rate =
Variable FOH cost for expected actual capacity/ expected actual capacity
= 180000/120000 =
1.50
FOH applied rate based on expected actual
capacity 2.00

Pre-determined overhead rate based on normal capacity

Fixed FOH rate = fixed FOH cost/ normal
capacity =60000/150000 = 0.40
Add variable FOH
rate = 1.50

Pre-determined overhead rate based on normal

capacity = 1.90

1) . Over-applied or under-applied factory overhead based on expected actual

capacity

Actual FOH cost = 180000

Applied FOH cost
=actual capacity * FOH rate
=100000*2.00 = 200000

Over applied FOH cost 20000

2) Budget variance at expected actual capacity rate

Actual FOH cost = 180000

Estimated FOH cost at actual capacity
Fixed FOH cost = 60000
+ Variable FOH cost
= actual capacity*variable rate
= 100000*1.50 = 150000 210000
Favorable 30000

Volume variance of expected actual capacity rate

Estimated FOH cost at actual capacity 210000

Applied FOH cost 200000
Unfavorable (10000)

The Mars Company applies factory overheads to production by means of pre-determined rate
based on expected actual capacity. Factory overhead at expected actual capacity of 120,000
hours is Rs. 240,000 of which Rs. 60,000 is fixed and Rs. 180,000 is variable. Normal capacity of
the company is 150,000 hours. The actual capacity attained during the year was 100,000 hours

Calculate:

Pre-determined overhead rate based on expected actual capacity and normal capacity.

1. Over-applied or under-applied factory overhead based on rate used by the company.

2. Budget variance and volume variance

Solution
Pre-determined overhead rate based on expected actual capacity

Fixed FOH rate = fixed FOH cost/ expected actual capacity = 60000/120000 = 0.50

Add variable FOH rate =

Variable FOH cost for expected actual capacity/ expected actual capacity

= 180000/120000 = + 1.50

FOH applied rate based on expected actual capacity 2.00

Pre-determined overhead rate based on normal capacity

Fixed FOH rate = fixed FOH cost/ normal capacity =60000/150000 = 0.40

Add variable FOH rate = + 1.50

Pre-determined overhead rate based on normal capacity = 1.90

1) . Over-applied or under-applied factory overhead based on expected actual

capacity

Actual FOH cost = 180000

Applied FOH cost

=actual capacity * FOH rate

=100000*2.00 = 200000
Over applied FOH cost 20000

2) Budget variance at expected actual capacity rate

Actual FOH cost = 180000

Estimated FOH cost at actual capacity

Fixed FOH cost = 60000

+ Variable FOH cost

= actual capacity*variable rate

= 100000*1.50 = 150000 210000

Favorable 30000

Volume variance of expected actual capacity rate

Estimated FOH cost at actual capacity 210000

Applied FOH cost 200000

Unfavorable (10000)

Note

Variable FOH rate always fixed at all capacity levels so it would be same for all

Details of the process for the last period are as follows:

Materials 5,000 Kgs at 0.50 per Kg

Labor Rs.700
Production overheads 200% of labor

Normal losses are 10% of input in the process. The out put for the period was 4,200Kg from the
process. There was no opening and closing Work- in- process. What were the units of abnormal
loss?

500 units
300 units
200 units
100 units
Solution courtesy Muhammad Zafeer <[email protected]>

Material Input = = 5000 kg

Material lost = 10% of 5000 kg = 500 kg

Material out put = 4200 kg

Abnormal Loss = 5000-500-4200 = 300kg

Differentiate between process costing and job order costing.

Process costing

It is a method of cost accounting applied to production carried out by a series of

operational, stages or processes. It is a continuous production process.
In process costing all units produce are similar. The whole process is divided into several
departments.

Job order costing.

The costing system that separately accumulates costs incurred to produce each job in a situation
where each job isdistinguishable from the other throughout the production process. The job may
be a single unit or a multi unit batch, a contract or a project, program or a service. Job costing is
employed by organizations possessing following characteristics.
1. Every order has its own manufacturing specifications. Therefore, every job is different from
the other and requires different amounts materials, labor and overhead.
2. Each job is clearly distinguishable from the other at all stages production process which
makes job wise accumulation of possible.
3. Each job is generally of high value.
4. Production is generally in response of customers' orders
5. Job wise accumulation of cost is desirable and/or necessary for and profit determination.
Job costing is more expensive as compared with process costing.
