Introduction Direct costs-The costs can be defined as costs which can be accurately traced to a cost object with little effort (Hilton, & Platt, 2013). Cost object may be a product, a department, a project, etc. Direct costs typically benefit a single cost object therefore the classification of any cost either as direct or indirect is done by taking the cost object into perspective. A particular cost may be direct cost for one cost object but indirect cost for another cost object. Indirect costs -Costs which cannot be accurately attributed to specific cost objects are called indirect costs. These typically benefit multiple cost objects and it is impracticable to accurately trace them to individual products, activities or departments etc. Problem 22-4B • Here is the information about Department Video and Music • Sales are $370,000 and $279,000 respectively • Cost of goods sold are $320,000 and $175,000 respectively • Direct costs are divided into 1.Salaries Indirect costs are divided into 1.Salaries 2.insurance 2.Insurance 3.Utilities 3.Office expenses 4.Depreciation 4.Depreciation 5. Maintenance Problem 22-4B Sadar Company operates a store with two departments: videos and music. The company also incurred the following indirect cost. Information about those departments follows. Videos Department Music Department Sales $370,500 $279,500 Cost of goods sold $320,000 $175,000 Salaries $35,000 $25,000 Maintenance $12,000 $10,000 Utilities $5,000 $4,500 Insurance $4,200 $3,700 Direct expenses Advertising Salaries Office expenses $15,000 $27,000 $3,200 Indirect costs are allocated as follows: advertising on the basis of sales; salaries on the basis of number of employees; and office expenses on the basis of square footage. Additional information about the departments follows. Department Videos Music Square footage Number of employees 5,000 3 3,000 2 Problem 22-4B For each department, determine the departmental contribution to overhead and the departmental net income. Sales Cost of goods sold Gross profit on slaes Direct expenses Salaries Maintenance Utilities Insurance Total direct expenses Departmental contribution Indirect expenses Advertising Salaries Office expenses Total indirect expenses Net Income Combined Videos Department Music Department $650,000 $370,500 $279,500 $495,000 $320,000 $175,000 $155,000 $50,500 $104,500 $60,000 $22,000 $9,500 $7,900 $99,400 $55,600 $35,000 $12,000 $5,000 $4,200 $56,200 ($5,700) $25,000 $10,000 $4,500 $3,700 $43,200 $61,300 $15,000 $27,000 $3,200 $45,200 $10,400 $8,550 $16,200 $2,000 $26,750 -$32,450 $6,450 $10,800 $1,200 $18,450 $42,850 Problem 22-4B • The sales and the costs of goods are calculated as combining the video department and the music department. • Gross profit on sales(video department ) =Sales (video ) -Costs of goods sold (video). • Gross profit on sales (music department)= Sales (music)-Costs of goods sold (Music). • Total gross profits on sales is calculated as combining the video and the music departments gross profits. Video department Music department Total Sales $370,500 $279,500 $650,00 Costs of goods sold $320,000 $175,000 $495,000 $104,500 $155,000 Gross profits on sales $50,500 Problem 22-4B • Direct expenses(salaries ,maintainance ,utilities and insurances of both video and the music department together 1.Salaries =$35,000 + $25,000 = $60,000 2.Maintenance=$12,000 + $10,000 = $22,000 3.Utilities = $5,000 + $4,500 = $9,500 4.Insurance =$4,200 + $ 3,700 = $ 7,900 5.Total direct expenses are combining together for their specific department $56,000 and $43,000 respectively. 6.Departmental contribution is calculated = total direct expense - gross profit Video department =$56,000- $50,500 = $5,700 Music department = $ 43,000 -$104,500 = $ 61,000 Problem 22-4B PROBLEM 22-4B • Problem 22-4B PROBLEM 22-4B Advertising(video department )=$370,500/650000*15000=8,550 Advertising(music department)=$279,500/650,000*15,000=$6,450 Salaries(video department ) = 3/5*27,000 =$16,875 Salaries (music department )=2/5*27,000= $10,125 Office expenses (video)=5/8*3,200 =$1920 Salaries (music department )=3/8*3,200=$1,280 Problem 22-4B PROBLEM 22-4B • Total indirect expenses are calculated by combining the salaries ,advertising and office expenses together of their specific departments. • Net income = gross profits - Direct costs and indirect costs • Net income (video)= $50,500 - $56,200+$26,750= -32,450 • Net Income (Music)=$104,000-$43,200 +$18,450=$42,850 Problem 22-4B Conclusion -Music department has a profit of $42,850 it is good to continue with it. -Video Department is in loss of $32,450. -Total Net Income of Vortex company is $10,400 -So the conclusion is video Department has produced loses than Profit. And so It’s correct to eliminate Video department. Problem 21-1A Phoenix Company’s 2015 master budget included the following fixed budget report. PHOENIX COMPANY Fixed Budget Report For Year Ended December 31, 2015 It is based on an expected production and sales 15,000 units $3,150,000 volume of 15,000 units. Sales Cost of goods sold Direct materials Direct labor Machinery repairs (variable cost) Depreciation-plant equipment (straightline) Utilities ($30,000 is variable) Plant management salaries Gross profit Selling expenses Packaging Shipping Sales salary (fixed annual amount) General and administrative expenses Advertising expense Salaries Entertainment expense Income from operations $930,000 210,000 45,000 315,000 210,000 210,000 1,920,000 1,230,000 90,000 90,000 235,000 100,000 241,000 85,000 415,000 426,000 $389,000 Problem 21-1A Introduction Fixed costs are costs which remain constant within a certain level of output or sales. This certain limit where fixed costs remain constant regardless of the level of activity is called relevant range. For example, depreciation on fixed assets, etc. Variable costs are costs which change with a change in the level of activity. Examples include direct materials, direct labor, etc. It is useful to create an income statement in the variable costing format when you want to determine that proportion of expenses that truly varies directly with revenues. In many businesses, the contribution margin will be substantially higher than the gross margin, because such a large amount of its production costs are fixed, and very few of its selling and administrative expenses are variable. A variable income statement varies from a normal income statement in three respects: 1. All fixed production costs are aggregated lower in the statement, after the contribution margin; 2. All variable selling and administrative expenses are grouped with variable production costs, so that they are a part of the calculation of the contribution margin; 3. Gross margin is replaced by the contribution margin Problem 21-1A Based on the data identify fixed costs, unit variable costs, and unit price 1) Fixed costs 2) Unit variable costs Fixed expenses Fixed manufacturing costs Depreciation-plant equipment (straight-line) Utilities Plant management salaries Fixed selling and administrative expenses Sales salary Advertising expense Salaries Entertainment expense Total fixed expenses 3) Unit price Sales 315,000 180,000 210,000 235,000 100,000 241,000 85,000 1,366,000 Variable Amount Per Unit $210 Variable Amount Per Unit Variable expenses Variable production costs Direct materials Direct labor Machinery repairs Utilities Variable selling and administrative expenses Packaging Shipping Total variable expenses 62 14 3 2 6 6 93 Fixed expenses Fixed manufacturing costs -Depreciation plant equipment (stright line )= given amont=$315,000 -Utilities are calculated as 210,000-30,000=$180,000 -Plant management salaries =given salaries=$210,000 Fixed selling and administrative expenses -Sales salary=given fixed=235,000 -Advertising expense =Given value=100,000 -Salaries = given value =241,000 -Entertainment expence=Given value=85,000 Total fixed are combining all the above values =1,366,000 Fixed expenses Fixed manufacturing costs Depreciation-plant equipment (straight-line) Utilities Plant management salaries Fixed selling and administrative expenses Sales salary Advertising expense Salaries Entertainment expense Total fixed expenses 315,000 180,000 210,000 235,000 100,000 241,000 85,000 1,366,000 Variable amount per unit Variable Amount Per Unit -The unit Variable costs can be calculated as -Direct materials =given total direct material /units=$930,000/15000=62 -Direct labor =direct labor/units=210,000/15000=14 -Machinery repairs = given machinery repairs/units =45,000/15000=3 -utilities = given variable utilities/units=30,000/15000=2 -packaging =given packaging/units=90,000/15000=6 -shipping =given shipping /units=90,000/15000=6 -Total variable expenses is calculated by combining all the above variable expenses is 93 Variable expenses Variable production costs Direct materials Direct labor Machinery repairs Utilities Variable selling and administrative expenses Packaging Shipping Total variable expenses 62 14 3 2 6 6 93 Sales per unit -The sale per unit is calculated by dividing the total sales with total number of units. -Sales =Total sales/total units=$3,150,000/15,000=210. -By the above caluclations the sales per unit is at 210. Variable Amount Per Unit Sales $210 Contribution margin per unit The contribution margin id calculated as by eliminating the variable expenses from the sales per unit. Contribution margin = Sales per unit the total variable expenses=210-93=117. -So the contribution margin for this company is 117.

It is thus obtained by deducting total Indirect expenses from the Contribution to Overhead. -For units 14000 is 1,638,000 - 1,366,000=$272,000 -For units 15000 is 1,755,000 -1,366,000 =$389,000 -For units 16000 is 1,872,000 - 1,366,000= $506,000 Conclusion Main other concepts Activity-based costing (ABC) is an accounting method that identifies and assigns costs to overhead activities and then assigns those costs to products. An activity-based costing (ABC) system recognizes the relationship between costs, overhead activities, and manufactured products, and through this relationship, it assigns indirect costs to products less arbitrarily than traditional methods. Job order costing or job costing is a system for assigning manufacturing costs to an individual product or batches of products. Generally, the job order costing system is used only when the products manufactured are sufficiently different from each other. (When products are identical or nearly identical, the process costing system will likely be used.)

determined by the professor. Presentations should not exceed 15 minutes.
