管理会计课后练习参考答案
第一章一、单选题1-5 BDBDB 6-9 DBBD二、多选题1-5 BCD ABC ABC ABCD ABCD 6-9 ABCD ABD ABC BCD三、简答题1. 狭义管理会计,又称微观管理会计,认为管理会计只为企业内部管理者提供计划,以控制所需信息的内部控制。
狭义管理会计的核心观点为:管理会计以企业为主体展开其管理活动;管理会计只为管理当局的管理目标服务;管理会计是一个信息系统,与财务会计并立,都是会计学的一个分支。
2. 20世纪70年代,管理会计的外延开始扩大,出现了广义管理会计概念。
广义管理会计的核心观点为:与狭义管理会计一样,管理会计以企业为主体展开其管理活动;但是管理会计不但为企业管理当局的管理目标服务,而且也为股东、债权人、税务当局等非管理集团服务;而从内容上看,管理会计包括了财务会计,同时还包括成本会计及财务管理。
3. 早期管理会计(20世纪初至50年代)。
19世纪末至20世纪早期,产业革命加速了资本主义经济的发展,促使企业生产规模迅速扩大,合伙经营和股份有限公司等企业组织形式相继出现,为会计的发展提供了广阔的天地。
20世纪,随着经济的发展,企业生产规模扩大,市场竞争也愈加激烈。
企业家意识到企业的经营效益不仅取决于产量的增长和外部市场的交易价格,更重要的是取决于成本的高低。
于是,从内部管理需要的角度出发,企业效益的衡量逐渐从由单纯的外部因素确定转向内部成本的计算和控制,产生了关于直接材料成本、人工成本、制造费用等成本项目的分类及具体的核算方法。
在该阶段,管理会计以成本控制为基本特征,以提高企业的生产效率和工作效率为主要目的。
其主要内容包括标准成本、预算控制和差异分析。
现代管理会计(20世纪50年代至80年代)。
20世纪50年代后,资本主义进入战后期。
现代科学技术的发展日新月异,并被大规模应用于生产,生产力获得迅速发展。
同时,资本主义企业进一步集中,跨国公司大量涌现,企业规模越来越大,市场情况瞬息万变,竞争愈加激烈。

The additional opportunities and risks of cash management for an MNC versus a domestic firm should be stressed. There are actually three key components of the chapter. The first is distinguishing between subsidiary control over excess cash versus centralized control. An argument is made in favor of centralized control. The second component is optimizing cash flow. Several techniques are recommended to optimize cash flow. Finally, the decision of where to invest excess cash should be discussed with consideration of all factors that need to be incorporated for this decision.Topics to Stimulate Class Discussion1. Should international cash management be conducted at the subsidiary level or at the centralizedlevel? Elaborate.2. What is the use of netting to an MNC?3. How can a firm deal with blocked funds?4. Assume that as a treasurer of a U.S. corporation, you believe that the British pound’s forward rateis an accurate forecast of the pound’s future spot rate. What does this imply about your decision of whether to invest cash in the U.S. or in the U.K.?Critical debateShould a MNC’s subsidiaries operate their own cash management policies?Yes. Ultimately cash management means that everything is controlled from the Propositioncentre. Different countries and indeed different products have very different working capital requirements. Centralization could easily lead to poor working capital management and cash flow difficulties.No. Trade between subsidiaries accounts for about a large percentage of Opposingviewworld exports, there has to be coordination between subsidiaries, also customers can be MNC’s so coordination is also required in debt collection. Also, there are considerable exchangerate savings to be madeWith whom do you agree? Think carefully about the arguments for and against allowing subsidiaries to manage their own cash. What are the problems with each of the arguments? Is there a solution that avoids the main drawbacks?ANSWER: For is the argument that the business is more efficient when such matters are run centrally. There are many systems nowadays run centrally from road tax to supermatrket clubcards. However, against is the argument that motivation is lost by running the business from the centre. Is autonomy worth the loss of efficiency if it means a better motivated workforce. Does this answer depend on the type of business?Answers to End of Chapter Questions1. International Cash Management. Discuss the general functions involved in international cashmanagement. Explain how the MNC’s optimization of cash flow can distort the profits of each subsidiary.ANSWER: The general functions of international cash management are optimizing cash flows and investing excess cash. These functions combined will lead to efficient usage of funds.When subsidiaries adjust their cash transactions between each other to reduce taxes or financing costs, their individual performances are distorted. For example, a subsidiary that makes a late payment to another subsidiary (due to its shortage of funds) benefits in that it avoided a short-term loan by delaying payment. The recipient subsidiary was hampered due to not receiving funds earlier (since the present value of the late payment is lower).2. Netting. Explain the benefits of netting. How can a centralized cash management system bebeneficial to the MNC?ANSWER: Netting is a centralized compilation of inter-subsidiary cash flows. It is designed to reduce currency conversion costs and processing costs associated with payments between subsidiaries. By specifying a single net payment to be made instead of all individual payments owed between subsidiaries, transactions costs are reduced and cash flows may be forecasted more accurately.A centralized cash management system is beneficial in that it allows for netting, which can reducetransactions costs and improve cash budgeting. In addition, it can increase yields on short-term investments by pooling excess cash of various subsidiaries.3. Leading and Lagging. How can an MNC implement leading and lagging techniques to helpsubsidiaries in need of funds?ANSWER: A subsidiary in need of funds would receive cash inflows from another subsidiary sooner than is required. This early payment provides the necessary funds. If the subsidiary in need of funds is making payment, it may be allowed by the MNC parent or recipient subsidiary to delay on its payment.4. International Fisher Effect. If a U.S. firm believes that the international Fisher effect holds, whatare the implications regarding a strategy of continually attempting to generate high returns from investing in currencies with high interest rates?ANSWER: High interest rate currencies will typically depreciate to offset their interest rate advantage (on average) according to the IFE. Therefore, this strategy will on average provide similar returns as a domestic investment, and the strategy is not worthwhile.5. Investing Strategy. Trumpington ltd has £2 million in excess cash that it has invested in Mexicoat an annual interest rate of 60 percent. The UK interest rate is 9 percent. By how much would the Mexican peso have to depreciate to cause such a strategy to backfire?1 +9%-1 = -31.875%1 +60%ANSWER: If the peso depreciates by more than 31.875 percent, the effective yield on the Mexican deposit will be less than the domestic yield.6. Investing Strategy. Why would a UK firm consider investing short-term funds in euros evenwhen it does not have any future cash outflows in euros?ANSWER: The interest rate on the euro may be higher, or the euro may have a high probability of appreciating. Also the firm may invest in euros today to hedge a future payment in euros.7. Covered Interest Arbitrage. Granville SA has 2 million euro in cash available for 90 days. It isconsidering the use of covered interest arbitrage, since theeuro’s 90-day interest rate is higher than the euro interest rate. What will determine whether this strategy is feasible?ANSWER: If interest rate parity exists, then the forward rate of the euro contains a discount that sufficiently offsets the higher interest rate on euros. Consequently, the act of covered interest arbitrage would not be feasible.8. Effective Yield. Corlins plc has £1 million in cash available for 30 days. It can earn 1 percent on a30-day investment in the United Kingdom. Alternatively, if it converts the pounds to South African rand, it can earn 1 ? percent on a rand deposit. The spot rate of the rand is £0.09. The spot rate 30 days from now is expected to be £0.08. Should Corlins invest its cash in the United Kingdom or in South Africa? Explain your answer.ANSWER: If Corlins plc invests in a Mexican deposit, it will convert £1 million to 11,111,111R which will accumulate to 11,277,778R after one month (due to the 1 1/2% interest rate). If the spot rate of the rand is £0.08 after one month, the rand will be converted to £902,222, which is less than the amount of pounds the firm started with. Thus, the Corlins plc should invest its cash in the UK. An alternative approach is to note that the value of the rand is going to fall by (0.08 –0.09)/0.09 = -11.1% much greater than the difference in interest rates.9. Effective Yield. Rollins plc has £3 million in cash available for 180 days. It can earn 7 percent ona UK Treasury bill or 9 percent on a US Treasury bill. The US investment does require conversionof pounds to dollars. Assume that interest rate parity holds and that Rollins believes the 180-day forward rate is a reliablepredictor of the spot rate to be realized 180 days from now. Would the British investment provide an effective yield that is below, above, or equal to the yield on the U.S.investment? Explain your answer.ANSWER: If the forward rate is an accurate forecast of the future spot rate, then the return on a foreign investment without covering the currency exposure will be the same as if it was covered.The uncovered foreign investment, like the act of covered interest arbitrage, will generate a return similar to the domestic return (given that interest rate parity exists).10. Effective Yield. Repeat question 9, but this time assume that Rollins plc expects the 180-dayforward rate of the dollar to substantially overestimate the spot rate to be realized in 180 days.ANSWER: In this case, the future spot rate will be less than the forward rate. If it was equal to the forward rate, the foreign return would have been similar to the domestic return for Rollins Inc.(as explained in the answer to question 9). If the future spot rate is lower than the forward rate, the U.S. firm will receive less when converting the pounds back to dollars. Thus, the foreign return is expected to be less than the domestic return.11. Effective Yield. Repeat question 9, but this time assume that the Rollins plc expects the 180-dayforward rate of the pound to substantially underestimate the spot rate to be realized in 180 days.ANSWER: In this case, Rollins will receive more when converting the pounds back to dollars than the amount necessary to match the domestic return. Thus, the foreign returnis expected to be greater than the domestic return.12. Effective Yield. Assume that the one-year UK interest rate is 10 percent and the one-year USinterest rate is 13 percent. If a UK firm invests its funds in the US, by what percentage will the dollar have to depreciate to make its effective yield the same as the UK interest rate from the UK firm’s perspective?ANSWER:(1 + 10%) – 1 = about –2.65%(113%)+13. Investing in a Currency Portfolio. Why would a firm consider investing in a portfolio of foreigncurrencies instead of just a single foreign currency?ANSWER: A portfolio of currencies reduces the probability of the foreign investment backfiring due to depreciation in the currencies denominating the investment. If all funds are in an investment denominated in a single foreign currency, risk of that currency substantially depreciating is relatively high (compared to an entire portfolio of currencies substantially depreciating).14. Interest Rate Parity. Trellis ltd has determined that the interest rate on euros is 16 percent whilethe UK interest rate is 11 percent for one-year Treasury bills. The one-year forward rate of the euro has a discount of 7 percent. Does interest rate parity exist? Can Trellis achieve a higher effective yield by using covered interest arbitrage than by investing in UK Treasury bills? Explain.ANSWER: If interest rate parity (IRP) existed, the forward rate of the euro should have a discount reflecting the interest ratedifferential:(1 + 11%) – 1 = –4.31% (discount)=Forwarddiscount(1 + 16%)Since the euro’s actual discount exceeds that percentage, IRP does not exist. However, Dallas Company would achieve a lower effective yield if attempting covered interest arbitrage than if it invests in UK Treasury bills, because the euro’s forward discount more than offsets the interest rate differential.15. Diversified Investments. Hofstra ltd has no business outside the UK but has cash invested in sixEuropean countries, each of which uses the euro as its local currency. Are Hofstra’s short-term investments well diversified and subject to a low degree of exchange rate risk? Explain.ANSWER: The short-term investments are not well diversified, because the entire portfolio of investments is denominated in euros. If the euro weakens against the pound, the return on all short-term securities denominated in euros will decline from the perspective of the UK firm.16. Investing Strategy. Should McNeese ltd consider investing funds in Latin American countrieswhere it may expand facilities? The interest rates are high, and the proceeds from the investments could be used to help support the expansion. When would this strategy backfire?ANSWER: McNeese could benefit from investing at a high interest rate. However, this strategy could backfire if the currency weakens over time, because McNeese could have converted pounds later (at the time of expansion) at a more favourableexchange rate. The tradeoff is a higher interest rate if it invests funds now, versus a more favourable exchange rate if it invests funds later.17. Impact of a crisis. Palos SA (Spain) commonly invests some of its excess euros in foreigngovernment short-term securities in order to earn a higher short-term interest rate on its cash. Describe how the potential return and risk of this strategy may be affected by financial crisis.ANSWER: A financial crisis si likely to mean higher interest rates due to the greater risk. If the euros invested are excesss, then Palos might like to a certain extent to take the risk if it feels that the financial crisis is unwarranted. In this respect ti might use information from its local interests if there are any. Using specialist information in this way would lead to Palos earning excess returns as a reward for the information.Advanced Questions18. Investing in a Portfolio. Poppleton ltd plans to invest its excess cash in South African rand forone year. The one-year South African interest rate is 19 percent. The probability of the rand’s percentage change in value during the next year is shown below:Possible rate of change in the South African rand overthe life of theinvestmentProbability ofoccurrence-15% 20%-4 50%0 30%What is the expected value of the effective yield based onthis information? Given that the UKinterest rate for one year is 7 percent, what is the probability that a one-year investment in pesos will generate a lower effective yield than could be generated if Poppleton ltd simply invested domestically?ANSWER:Effective Yield if thisP ossible Rate of Rate of Change in theChange in Peso Probability Peso Does Occur –15% 20% (1.19) [1 + (–15%)] – 1 = 1.15% –4% 50% (1.19) [1 + (–4%)] – 1 = 14.24% 0% 30% (1.19) [1 + (0%)] – 1 = 19.00%E(r) = 20% (1.15%) + 50% (14.24%) + 30% (19.00%)= 0.23% + 7.12% + 5.70%= 13.05%There is a 20% probability that the rand’s effective yield will be less than the domestic yield.19. Effective Yield of Portfolio. Ithaca (Greece) considers placing 30 percent of its excess funds in a one-year Singapore dollar deposit and the remaining 70 percent of its funds in a one-year US dollar deposit. The Singapore one-year interest rate is 15 percent, while the US one-year interest rate is 10 percent. The possible percentage changes in the two currencies for the next year are forecasted as follows:currency Possible percentage change in the spot rate over the investmenthorizonProbability of that change in the spot rateoccurringSingapore dollar -2% 20%Singapore dollar 1 60Singapore dollar 3 20US dollar 1 50US dollar 4 40US dollar 6 10Given this information, determine the possible effective yields of the portfolio and the probability associated with each possible portfolio yield.

管理会计第14版(charles 查尔斯)英文影印版课后答案
COVERAGE OF LEARNING OBJECTIVESManagerial Accounting and the Business Organization1-A1 (10-15 min.)Because the accountant's duties are often not sharply defined, some of these answers could be challenged:1. Attention directing and problem solving. Budgeting involves makingdecisions about planned activities -- hence, aiding problem solving.Budgets also direct attention to areas of opportunity or concern --hence, directing attention. Reporting against the budget also has ascorekeeping dimension.2. Problem solving. Helps a manager assess the impact of a decision.3. Scorekeeping. Reports on the results of an operation. Could also beattention direction if scrap is an area that might require management decisions.4. Attention directing. Focuses attention on areas that need attention.5. Attention directing. Helps managers learn about the informationcontained in a performance report.6. Scorekeeping. The statement merely reports what has happened.7. Problem solving. The cost comparison is apparently useful becausethe manager wishes to decide between two alternatives. Thus, it aids problem solving.8. Attention directing. Variances point out areas where results differfrom expectations. Interpreting them directs attention to possiblecauses of the differences.9. Problem solving. Aids a decision about where the parts should bemade.10. Scorekeeping. Determining a depreciation schedule is simply anexercise in preparing financial statements to report the results ofactivities.1.

Because of the management by exception rule, room rental andentertainment require no explanation. The actual expenditure forfood exceeded the budget by $208. Of this $208, $150 is explained by attendance of 15 persons more than budgeted (at a budget of $10 per person) and $58 is explained by expenditures above $10 per person.Actual expenditures for decorations were $30 less than the budget. If all desired decorations were purchased, the decorations committee should be commended for their savings.1-A3 (10 min.)All of the situations raise possibilities for violation of the integrity standard. In addition, the manager in each situation must address an additional ethical standard:1. The General Mills manager must respect the confidentiality standard.He or she should not disclose any information about the new cereal.2. Roberto must address his level of competence for the assignment. Ifhis supervisor knows his level of expertise and wants an analysisfrom a “layperson” point of view, he should do it. However, if thesupervisor expects an expert analysis, Roberto must admit his lackof competence.3. The objectivity standard should cause Helen to decline to omit theinformation from her budget. It is relevant information, and itsomission may mislead readers of the budget.Because the accountant’s duties are often not sharply defined, some of these answers could be challenged:1. Scorekeeping. Records events.2. Scorekeeping. Simply recording of what has happened.3. Problem solving. Helps a manager decide between alternatives.4. Attention directing.

The cost of fireworks was $4,500 ÷ $35,000 = 13% over budget. Didfireworks suppliers raise their prices? Did competition cause retailprices to be lower than expected? There should be someexplanation for the extra cost of fireworks. Also, the labor cost was$2,000 ÷ $15,000 =13% below budget. It would be useful to discover why this cost was saved. Both sales and other costs were very close to budget.1-B3 (10 - 15 min.)1. Treasurer. Analysts affect the company's ability to raise capital,which is the responsibility of the treasurer.2. Controller. Advising managers aids operating decisions.3. Controller. Advice on cost analysis aids managers' operatingdecisions.4. Controller. Divisional financial statements report on operations.Financial statements are generally produced by the controller'sdepartment.5. Treasurer. Financing the business is the responsibility of thetreasurer.6. Controller. Tax returns are part of the accounting process overseenby the controller.7. Treasurer. Insurance, as with other risk management activities, isusually the responsibility of the treasurer.8. Treasurer. Allowing credit is a financial decision.1-1 Decision makers within and outside an organization use accounting information for three broad purposes:1. Internal reporting to managers for planning and controllingoperations.2. Internal reporting to managers for special decision-making and long-range planning.3. External reporting to stockholders, government, and other interestedparties.1-2 The emphasis of financial accounting has traditionally been on the historical data presented in the external reports. Management accounting emphasizes planning and control purposes.1-3 The branch of accounting described in the quotation is management accounting.1-4 Scorekeeping is the recording of data for a later evaluation of performance. Attention directing is the reporting and interpretation of information for the purpose of focusing on inefficiencies of operation or opportunities for improvement. Problem solving presents a concise analysis of alternative courses of action.1-5 GAAP applies to publicly issued annual financial reports. Internal accounting reports are not restricted by GAAP.1-6 Yes, but it covers more than that. The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act applies to all publicly-held companies and covers the quality of internal accounting control as well as bribes and other matters.1-7 Users cannot easily observe the quality of accounting information. Thus, they rely on the integrity of accountants to be sure the information is accurate. Information that is unreliable is worthless, so if accountants do not have a reputation for integrity, the information they produce will not have value.1-8 Three examples of service organizations are banks, insurance companies, and public accounting firms. Such organizations tend to be labor intensive, have outputs that are difficult to define and measure, and have both inputs and outputs that are difficult or impossible to store.1-9 Two considerations are cost-benefit balance and behavioral effects. Cost-benefit balance refers to how well an accounting system helps achieve management's goals in relation to the cost of the system. The behavioral consideration specifies that an accounting system should be judged by how it will affect the behavior (that is, decisions) of managers.1-10 Yes. The act of recording events has become as much a part of operating activities as the act of selling or buying. For example, cash receipts and disbursements must be traced, and receivables and payables must be recorded, or else gross confusion would ensue.1-11 A budget is a prediction and guide; a performance report is a tabulation of actual results compared with the budget; and a variance reconciles the differences between budget and actual.1-12 No. Management by exception means that management spends more effort on those areas that seem to be out of control and less on areas that are functioning as planned. This method is an efficient way for managers to decide where to put their time and effort.1-13 No. There is no perfect system of automatic control, nor does accounting control anything. Accounting is a tool used by managers in their control of operations.1-14 Information that is relevant for decisions about a product depends on the product's life-cycle stage. Therefore, to prepare and interpret information, accountants should be aware of the current stage of a product's life cycle.1-15 The six functions are: (1) research and development – generation and experimentation with new ideas; (2) product and service process design – detailed design and engineering of products; (3) production – use of resources to produce a product or service; (4) marketing - informing customers of the value and features of products or services; (5) distribution – delivering products or services to customers; and (6) customer service –support provided to customers.1-16 No. Not all of the functions are of equal importance to the success of a company. Measurement and reporting should focus on those functions that enable a company to gain and maintain a competitive edge.1-17 Line managers are directly responsible for the production and sale of goods or services. Staff managers have an advisory function – they support line managers.1-18 Management accountants are the information specialists, even in non-hierarchical companies. However, in such companies they are more directly involved with managers and are often parts of cross-functional teams.1- 19 A treasurer is concerned mainly with the company's financial matters, the controller with operating matters. In large organizations, there are sufficient activities associated with both financial and operating matters to justify two separate positions. In a small organization the same person might be both treasurer and controller.1-20 The four parts of the CMA examination are: (1) economics, finance, and management, (2) financial accounting and reporting, (3) management reporting, analysis, and behavioral issues, and (4) decision analysis and information systems.1-21 This is not true. About one-third of CEOs come from finance or accounting backgrounds. Accounting is excellent preparation for top management positions because accountants are often exposed to many parts of the company early in their careers.1-22 Changes in technology are affecting how accountants operate. They must be able to account for e-commerce transactions efficiently and safely, they often must integrate their accounting systems into ERP systems, and an increasing number are beginning to use XBRL to communicate information electronically.1-23 The essence of the just-in-time philosophy is the elimination of waste, accomplished by reducing the time products spend in the production process and trying to eliminate the time spent in processes that do not add value to the product.1-24 Moving tools and products that are in process from one location to another in a plant is an activity that does not add value to the product. So changing the plant layout to eliminate wasted movement and time improves production efficiency.1-25 The four major responsibilities are: (1) competence - develop knowledge; know and obey laws, regulations, and technical standards; and perform appropriate analyses, (2) confidentiality - refrain from disclosing or using confidential information, (3) integrity - avoid conflicts of interest, refuse gifts that might influence actions, recognize limitations, and avoid activities that might discredit the profession, and (4) objectivity - communicate information fairly, objectively, and completely, within confidentiality constraints.1-26 Standards do not always provide the needed guidance. Sometimes an action borders on being unethical, but it is not clearly an ethical violation. Other times two ethical standards conflict. In situations such as these, accountants must make ethical judgments.1-27 (5-10 min.)Typical activities associated with the treasurer function include:❑Provision of capital❑Investor relations❑Short-term financing❑Banking and custody❑Credits and collections❑Investments❑Risk managementTypical activities associated with the controller function include:❑Planning for control❑Reporting and interpreting❑Evaluating and consulting❑Tax administration❑Government reporting❑Protection of assets❑Economic appraisal1-28 (5-10 min.)Activities 2, 4, 5, and 6 are primarily associated with marketing decisions. The management accountant would assist in these decisions as follows: Boeing Company’s pricing decision requires cost data relevant to the new method of distributing spare parts. will need to know the costs of the advertising program as well as the additional costs of other value chain functions resulting from increased sales. TexMex Foods will need to know the incremental revenues and incremental costs associated with the special order. Target Stores needs to know the impact on both revenues and costs of closing one of its stores.Activities 1, 7, and 8 are primarily associated with production decisions. The management accountant would assist in these decisions as follows. Porsche Motor Company needs an analysis of the costs associated with purchasing the part compared to the costs of making the part. Dell will need to know the costs of the training program and the savings associated with increased efficiencies in the setup and changeover activities. General Motors needs to know the costs and salvage values of the replacement equipment, the proceeds of the sale of the old equipment, and the operating savings associated with the use of the new equipment.1-30 (5 min.)1.

Line, productionMicrosoft is a company that most students will know and have some understanding of what functions its managers perform. Nevertheless, this may not be an easy exercise for those who have little knowledge of how companies operate.Research & development – Because software companies must continually come out with new products and upgrades to their current products this is a critical function for Microsoft. More than one-fourth of Microsoft’s operating expenses are devoted to R&D.Design of products, services, or processes – For Microsoft the design and R&D process probably overlap considerably. Product design is critical; process design is probably not. One essential part of design is beta testing – that is, field testing of new software. This quality-control step is essential to prevent customer dissatisfaction with new products.Production – Microsoft produces disks and CD-ROMs and the manuals and packaging to go with them. However, they are increasingly delivering software over the Internet, which takes an initial process design and then few resources. It is not likely a major focus for Microsoft.Marketing – Microsoft spends more on sales and marketing than on any other operating expense. Increasing competition in software sales makes marketing essential to the company’s future. This function includes advertising and direct marketing activities, but it also includes activities of the company’s sales force. Distribution – This function is becoming simpler for Microsoft as it delivers more and more software over the Internet. Although the company must stay abreast of competitors in delivery methods, this is not likely to create a major competitive advantage or disadvantage for Microsoft.Customer service – Customer service is important, but Microsoft tries to minimize its costs in this area by product design – making things work right without needing deep computer expertise. Still, poor customer service can severely impact a company, so Microsoft must attend to it.Support functions – Most of the time these are not a major focus. There is one exception recently for Microsoft. Legal support has been front and center. The very future of the company was based on court judgments for which good legal support was essential.The management accountant's major purpose is to provide information that helps line managers in making decisions regarding the planning and controlling of operations. The accountant supplies information for scorekeeping, attention directing, and problem solving. In turn, managers use this and other information for routine and non-routine decisions and for evaluating subordinates and the performance of sub-parts of the organization. Management accountants must walk a delicate line between (1) making sure that managers are properly using the pertinent information and (2) making sure that the managers, not the accountants, are doing the actual managing.1-35(5 min.)Other costs of a poor ethical environment include legal costs and costs due to high employee turnover. Other benefits of a good ethical environment include low employee turnover, low loss from internal theft, and improved customer satisfaction resulting from better quality and service (that result from a more productive work environment).1-36(5 min.)There are numerous examples.“You understand how important it is to record this sale before year end, don’t you?”“Doing it this way is common for all companies in our business, so don’t worry!”“Trust me, the inventory is at the warehouse.”This problem can form the basis of an introductory discussion of the entire field of management accounting.1. The focus of management accounting is on helping internal users tomake better decisions, whereas the focus of financial accounting ison helping external users to make better decisions. Managementaccounting helps in making a host of decisions, including pricing,product choices, investments in equipment, making or buying goods and services, and manager rewards.2. Generally accepted accounting standards or principles affect bothinternal and external accounting. However, change in internalaccounting is not inhibited by generally accepted principles. Forexample, if an organization wants to account for assets on the basisof replacement costs for internal purposes, no outside agency canprohibit such accounting. Of course, this means that organizationsmay have to keep more than one set of records. There is nothingimmoral or unethical about having multiple sets of books, but theyareexpensive. Accounting data are commodities, just like butter or eggs.Innovations in internal accounting systems must meet the samecost-benefit tests that other commodities endure. That is, theirperceived increases in benefits must exceed their perceivedincreases in costs. Ultimately, benefits are measured by whetherbetter decisions are forthcoming in the form of increased net profitsor cost savings.3. Budgets, the formal expressions of management plans, are a majorfeature of management accounting, whereas they are not asprominent in financial accounting. Budgets are major devices forcompelling and disciplining management planning.4. An important use of management accounting information is theevaluation of performance, which often takes the form of comparisonof actual results against budgets, providing incentives and feedback to improve future decisions.5.Accounting systems have an enormous influence on the behavior ofindividuals affected by them. Management accounting is moreconcerned with the likely behavioral effects of various accountingalternatives that may be adopted than is financial accounting.1-38(10 min.)The main point of this question is that cost information is crucial for decisions regarding which products and services should be emphasized or de-emphasized. The incentives to measure costs precisely are far greater when flat fees are being received instead of reimbursements of costs.Note, too, that nonprofit organizations and profit-seeking organizations have similar desires regarding management accounting. Accountability is now in fashion for many purposes, including justification of prices, cost control, and response to criticisms by investors (whether they be donors, taxpayers, or others).When somebody's money is at stake, accounting systems get much love and attention. In a survey of 550 hospitals, hospital financial executives said that improved cost accounting systems "are crucial to responding to changes in hospital payment mechanisms and that better cost information is essential for more profitable and efficient operations." Hospitals will increasingly identify costs by product (type of case), not just by departments.1-39 (10 min.)Paperwork and systems often seem to become ends in themselves. However, the rationale that should underlie systems design is the cost-benefit philosophy or approach that is implied in the quotation. The aim is to get the managers and their subordinates collectively to make better decisions under one system versus another system -- for a given level of costs.Marks & Spencer should look at each of the management accounting reports it produces with an eye toward how it helps managers make better decisions. Does it provide needed scorekeeping? Does it direct attention to aspects of operations that might need altering? Does it provide information for specific management decisions? These types of questions will help identify the benefit of the information in the report.Then the company must consider the cost – not just the cost of collecting the data and preparing the reports, but the cost of educating managers to use the information and the cost of the time to read, digest, and act on the information. Too much information may be costly because it makes it time-consuming (and thus costly) to sift through the reams of information to find the few items that are important. And one cost may be the loss of important information because the total volume of information makes it too difficult to ferret out the important items.1-40(10 min.) Financial information is important in all companies. But how managers get and use financial information can differ depending on the culture and philosophies of the company.Top executives of a company often represent a functional area that is critical to the comparative economic advantage of the company. If technology is crucial, engineers generally hold important executive positions. If marketing differentiates the company from others, marketing executive s usually dominate. But regardless of the source of a company’s competitive advantage, its success will eventually be measured in economic terms. They must attend to financial aspects to thrive and often even to survive.Management accountants must work with the dominant managers in any organization. The modern trend toward use of cross-functional teams places management accountants at the center of the action regardless of what type of managers and executives dominate. Most companies realize that there is a financial dimension to almost every major decision, so they want the financial experts, management accountants, involved in the decisions. But to be accepted as an important part of these teams, the management accountants must know how to help managers in various functional areas. In General Mills, if accountants can’t talk the language of marketing, they will not have great influence. In ArvinMeritor, if they do not understand the information needs of engineers they will not provide value.1-41(10-15 min.)1. Boeing's competitive environment and manufacturing processeschanged greatly during the 1990s. An accounting system that served them well in their old environment would not necessarily be optimal in the 2000s. Boeing's management probably thought that changes in the accounting system were necessary to produce the kind of information necessary to remain competitive.2. A cost-benefit criterion was probably used. Boeing's management maynot have quantified the costs and the benefits, but they certainlyassessed whether the new system would help decisions enough towarrant the cost of the system.Many of the benefits of a better accounting system are hard to measure.They affect many strategic decisions of an organization. Withoutaccurate product costs, management will find it difficult to assess the consequences of their decisions. An accurate accounting system will help to price airplanes and other products competitively.3. More accurate product costs will usually result in better managementdecisions. But if the cost of the accounting system that produces the more accurate costs is too high, it may be best to forego the increased accuracy. The benefit of better decisions must exceed the added cost of the system for a change to be desirable.1-42(10 min.)1. There are many possible activities for each function of Nike's valuechain. Some possibilities are:Research and development -- Determining changes in customers'tastes and preferences for shoes and sportswear to come up withnew products (maybe the next "Air Jordans").Product and service process design -- Design a shoe to meet theincreasing demands of competitive athletes.Production -- Determine where to produce products and negotiatecontracts with the companies producing them.Marketing -- Signing prominent athletes to endorse Nike's products.Distribution -- Select the best locations for warehouses fordistribution to retail outlets.Customer service -- Formulate return policies for products thatcustomers perceive to be defective.2. Accounting information that aids managers' decisions includes:Research and development -- Trends in sales for various products, to determine which are becoming more and less popular.Product and service process design -- Production costs of variousshoe designs.Production -- Measure total costs, including both purchase cost and transportation costs, for production in various parts of the world.Marketing -- The added profits generated by the added sales due toproduct endorsements.Distribution -- Storage and shipping costs for different alternativewarehouse locations.Customer service -- The net cost of returned merchandise, to becompared with the benefits of better customer relations.。

四、案例分析
案例一
(1)该观点是错误的。管理会计的职能与财务会计不同,它不在于对数据的核算和监督,而是着重于管理方面。具体可表述为:为决策提供客观可靠的信息;制度计划,编制预算;成本确定和成本计算;指导经营,实施控制等。小贾混淆了财务会计和管理会计的职能,核算和监督是财务会计的主要职能。
(2)该观点是错误的。根据企业会计准则的规定,企业必须按规定的特定的会计期间来编制财务报表。财务报表的编制时间可分为年、半年、季度和月份,以反映企业在特定时间的财务状况及特定期间的经营成果和现金流量。管理会计面向未来进行进行预测、决策,报告的编制不受固定期间的限制,它可以根据企业的具体情况和需要来编制各种报表。它既可以按年、季度、月份来编制,也可以按周、天来编制。
5.管理会计与财务会计的联系:(1)工作对象相同。财务会计和管理会计的工作对象都是企业的经营资金运动。(2)基本资料来源相同。管理会计根据企业内部经营管理的要求,主要利用财务会计提供的信息进行分析研究,并对它们进行加工、延伸,编制成内部报表,从而为企业管理当局提供管理会计信息。管理会计不需要另行组织一套原始数据。(3)主要指标相互渗透。财务会计提供的历史性资金、成本、利润等有关指标,是管理会计进行长、短期决策分析的重要依据。而管理会计中确定的预算、标准等数据又是财务会计进行日常核算的目标。两者的指标体系及内容基本一和管理。(4)最终目标一致。提高企业经营管理水平和经济效益都是管理会计和财务会计的最终目标。管理会计为企业内部管理当局提供与决策相关的信息,为企业提供经营管理水平及经济效益服务。

第一章一、单选题1-5 BDBDB 6-9 DBBD二、多选题1-5 BCD ABC ABC ABCD ABCD 6-9 ABCD ABD ABC BCD;三、简答题1. 狭义管理会计,又称微观管理会计,认为管理会计只为企业内部管理者提供计划,以控制所需信息的内部控制。
狭义管理会计的核心观点为:管理会计以企业为主体展开其管理活动;管理会计只为管理当局的管理目标服务;管理会计是一个信息系统,与财务会计并立,都是会计学的一个分支。
2. 20世纪70年代,管理会计的外延开始扩大,出现了广义管理会计概念。
广义管理会计的核心观点为:与狭义管理会计一样,管理会计以企业为主体展开其管理活动;但是管理会计不但为企业管理当局的管理目标服务,而且也为股东、债权人、税务当局等非管理集团服务;而从内容上看,管理会计包括了财务会计,同时还包括成本会计及财务管理。
3. 早期管理会计(20世纪初至50年代)。
19世纪末至20世纪早期,产业革命加速了资本主义经济的发展,促使企业生产规模迅速扩大,合伙经营和股份有限公司等企业组织形式相继出现,为会计的发展提供了广阔的天地。
20世纪,随着经济的发展,企业生产规模扩大,市场竞争也愈加激烈。
企业家意识到企业的经营效益不仅取决于产量的增长和外部市场的交易价格,更重要的是取决于成本的高低。
于是,从内部管理需要的角度出发,企业效益的衡量逐渐从由单纯的外部因素确定转向内部成本的计算和控制,产生了关于直接材料成本、人工成本、制造费用等成本项目的分类及具体的核算方法。
在该阶段,管理会计以成本控制为基本特征,以提高企业的生产效率和工作效率为主要目的。
其主要内容包括标准成本、预算控制和差异分析。
现代管理会计(20世纪50年代至80年代)。
20世纪50年代后,资本主义进入战后期。
现代科学技术的发展日新月异,并被大规模应用于生产,生产力获得迅速发展。
同时,资本主义企业进一步集中,跨国公司大量涌现,企业规模越来越大,市场情况瞬息万变,竞争愈加激烈。

管理会计双语Managerial Accounting Review Question⼀、True/False QuestionsFor each of the following, circle the T or the F to indicate whether the statement is true or false.1Managerial accounting refers to the preparation and use of accounting information designed to meet the needs of decision makers inside the business organization.2Product costs are selling expenses that appear on the income statement.3Management accounting reports provide a means of monitoring , evaluating and rewarding performance.4Product costs are offset against revenue in the period in which the related products are sold, rather than the period in which the costs are incurred.5Manufacturing overhead is considered an indirect cost, since overhead costs generally cannot be traced conveniently and directly to specific units of product.6Overhead application rates allow overhead to be assigned at the beginning of a period to help set prices.7Pepsi Cola would most likely use a job order costing system.8Activity-based costing tracks cost to the activities that consume resources.9Activity based costing uses multiple activity bases to assign overhead costs to units of production.10The two steps required in Activity Based Costing are 1) Identify separate activity cost pools and 2) allocate each cost pool to the product using an appropriate cost driver11The new manufacturing environment is characterized by its shift toward labor intensive production and declining manufacturing overhead costs.12A cost driver is an activity base that is highly correlated with manufacturing overhead costs.13In ABC, only one cost driver should be used in applying overhead.14As companies become more automated overhead costs decrease and direct labor costs increase.15An equivalent unit measures the percentage of a completed units cost that is present in a partially finished unit.16Costs do not flow through a process cost system in the same sequence as actual products move through the assembly process.17Non-value added activities are those that do not add to a product's desirability.18Target costing centers on new product and service development as opposed to managing the value chain for existing products.19In the target costing process, target price is computed by adding the desired profit margin to the target product cost.20Target cost equals target price plus profit margin.21Variable costs which increase in total amount in direct proportion to an increase in output represent a constant amount per unit of output.22Any business which operates at less than capacity will have larger fixed costs than variable costs.23With variable costs, the cost per unit varies with changes in volume.24The contribution margin is the difference between total revenue and fixed costs.25The volume of output which causes fixed costs to be equal in amount to variable costs is called the break-even point.26Any business which operates at less than capacity will have larger fixed costs than variable costs.27Margin of safety is the dollar amount by which actual sales volume exceeds the break-even sales volume.28Life cycle costing considers all potential resources used by the product over its entire life.29Economies of scale can be achieved by using facilities more intensively.30The break-even point is the level of activity at which operating income is equal to cost of goods sold.31Contribution margin ratio is equal to contribution margin per unit divided by unit sales price.32Opportunity cost is the benefit that could have been obtained by pursuing an alternate course of action.33All incremental revenue or incremental costs are relevant.34Sunk costs are relevant to decisions about replacing plant assets.35In determining whether to scrap or to rebuild defective units of product, the cost already incurred in producing the defective units is not relevant.36In making a decision, management will look thoroughly at both relevant and irrelevant data.373.Responsibility margin is useful in evaluating the consequences of short-run marketing strategies, while contribution margin is more useful in evaluating long-term profitability.38The transfer price is the dollar amount used in recording sales to primary customers.39Under variable costing, fixed manufacturing costs are treated as period costs, rather than product costs.40The transfer price is the dollar amount used in recording sales to primary customers.41Variable costing treats all fixed manufacturing costs as expenses of the current period.42In full costing when production rises above the amount of sales, some of the fixed costs will remain in inventory.43Return on Investment (ROI) tells us how much earnings can be expected for the average invested dollar.44Capital turnover can be improved by reducing invested capital while keeping sales constant.45The value chain consists of only those activities that increase the selling price of a product as it is distributed to a customer.46Residual income is calculated by subtracting the minimum acceptable return on the average invested capital from the operating income.⼆、Multiple Choice QuestionsChoose the best answer for

管理会计英文版答案
CHAPTER 1Managerial Accounting, the Business Organization, andProfessional Ethics1-A1 Solution:Information is often useful for more than one function, so the following classifications for each activity are not definitive but serve as a starting point for discussion:1. Scorekeeping. A depreciation schedule is used in preparing financialstatements to report the results of activities.2. Problem solving. Helps a manager assess the impact of a purchase decision.3. Scorekeeping. Reports on the results of an operation. Could also beattention directing if scrap is an area that might require management attention.4. Attention directing. Focuses attention on areas that need attention.5. Attention directing. Helps managers learn about the information contained ina performance report.6. Scorekeeping. The statement reports what has happened. Could also beattention directing if the report highlights a problem or issue.7. Problem solving. Assuming the cost comparison is to help the managerdecide between two alternatives, this is problem solving.8. Attention directing. Variances point out areas where results differ fromexpectations. Interpreting them directs attention to possible causes of thedifferences.9. Problem solving. Aids a decision about where to make parts.10. Attention directing and problem solving. Budgeting involves makingdecisions about planned activities -- hence, aiding problem solving. Budgets also direct attention to areas of opportunity or concern --hence, directingattention. Reporting against the budget also has a scorekeeping dimension.1-A2 Solution:1. Budgeted Actual DeviationsAmounts Amounts or Variances Room rental $ 140 $ 140 $ 0Food 700 865 165UEntertainment 600 600 0Decorations 220 260 40UTotal $1,660 $1,865 $205U 2. Because of the management by exception rule, room rental and entertainmentrequire no explanation. The actual expenditure for food exceeded the budget by $165. Of this $165, $150 is explained by attendance of 15 persons morethan budgeted (at a budget of $10 per person for food) and $15 is explained by expenditures above $10 per person.Actual expenditures for decorations were $40 more than the budget. Thedecorations committee should be asked for an explanation of the excessexpenditures.1-29 Solution:1. Controller. Financial statements are generally produced by the controller'sdepartment.2. Controller. Advising managers aids operating decisions.3. Controller. Advice on cost analysis aids managers' operating decisions.4. Treasurer. Analysts affect the company's ability to raise capital, which is theresponsibility of the treasurer.5. Treasurer. Financing the business is the responsibility of the treasurer.6. Controller. Tax returns are part of the accounting process overseen by thecontroller.7. Treasurer. Insurance, as with other risk management activities, is usually theresponsibility of the treasurer.8. Treasurer. Allowing credit is a financial decision.CHAPTER 2INTRODUCTION TO COST BEHAVIOR AND COST-VOLUME RELATIONSHIPS2-A3 Solution:The following format is only one of many ways to present a solution. This situation is reallya demonstration of "sensitivity analysis," whereby a basic solution is tested to see how much it is affected by changes in critical factors. Much discussion can ensue, particularly about the finalthree changes.The basic contribution margin per revenue mile is $1.50 - $1.30 = $.20(1) (2) (3) (4) (5)(1)×(2) (3)-(4)Revenue Cont ri buti on To talMi l es Margi n Pe r Cont ri buti on Fi xed NetSol d Revenue Mi l e Margi n Expen se s In co me 1. 800,000$.20$160,000$120,000$ 40,0002.

Class discussion of these answers should lead to worthwhile disagreements about anticipated cost behavior with regard to alternative cost drivers.1. (b) Discretionary fixed cost.2. (e) Step cost.3. (a) Purely variable cost with respect to revenue.4. (a) Purely variable cost with respect to miles flown.5. (d) Mixed cost with respect to miles driven.6. (c) Committed fixed cost.7. (b) Discretionary fixed cost.8. (c) Committed fixed cost.9. (a) Purely variable cost with respect to cases of Coca-Cola.10. (b) Discretionary fixed cost.11. (b) Discretionary fixed cost.3-A2 Solution:1. Support costs based on 60% of the cost of materials:Sign A Sign B Direct materials cost $400 $200 Support cost (60% of m ater ial s c o st) $240 $120 Support costs based on $50 per power tool operation:Sign A Sign B Power tool operations 3 6 Support cost $150 $300 2. If the activity analysis is reliable, by using the current method, Evergreen Signs is predicting too much cost for signs that use few power tool operations and is predicting too little cost for signs that use many power tool operations. As a result the company could be losing jobs that require few power tool operations because its bids are too high -- it could afford to bid less on these jobs. Conversely, the company could be getting too many jobs that require many power tool operations, because its bids are too low -- given what the "true" costs will be, the company cannot afford these jobs at those prices. Either way, the sign business could be more profitable if the owner better understood and used activity analysis. Evergreen Signs would be advised to adopt the activity-analysis recommendation, but also to closely monitor costs to see if the activity-analysis predictions of support costs are accurate.3-B2 Solution:Board Z15 Board Q52Mark-up method:Material cost $40 $60Support costs (100%) $40 $60Activity analysis method:Manual operations 15 7Support costs (@$4) $60 $28The support costs are different because different cost behavior is assumed by the two methods. If the activity analyses are reliable, then boards with few manual operations are overcosted with the markup method, and boards with many manual operatio ns are undercosted with the markup method.3-B3 Solution:Variable cost per machine hour =Change in Repair Cost Change in Machine Hours= (P260,000,000 - P200,000,000) (12,000 - 8,000)= P15,000 per machine hourFixed cost per month = total cost - variable cost= P260,000,000 - P15,000 x 12,000= P260,000,000 - P180,000,000= P 80,000,000 per monthor = P200,000,000 - P15,000 x 8,000= P200,000,000 - P120,000,000= P 80,000,000 per month3-32 Solution:1. Machining labor: G, number of units completed or labor hours2. Raw material: B, units produced; could also be D if the company’s purchases do not affect the price of the raw material.3. Annual wage: C or E (depending on work levels), labor hours4. Water bill: H, gallons used5. Quantity discounts: A, amount purchased6. Depreciation: E, capacity7. Sheet steel: D, number of implements of various types8. Salaries: F, number of solicitors9. Natural gas bill: C, energy usage3-34 Solution:1. 2001 2002Sales revenues $57 $116Less: Operating income (loss) (19) 18Operating expenses $76 $ 982. Change in operating expenses ÷ Change in revenues = Variable cost percentage($98 - $76) ÷ ($116 - $57) = $22 ÷ $59 = .37 or 37%Fixed cost = Total cost – Variable cost= $76 - .37 × $57= $55or= $98 - .37 × $116= $55Cost function = $55 + .37 × Sales revenue3. Because fixed costs to not change, the entire additional total contributionmargin is added to operating income. The $57 sales revenue in 2001generated a total contribution margin of $57 × (1 - .37) = $36, which was $19 short of covering the $55 of fixed cost. But the additional $59 of salesrevenue in 2002 generated a total contribution margin of $59 × (1 - .37) = $37 that could go directly to operating income because there was no increase infixed costs. It wiped out the $19 operating loss and left $18 of operatingincome.3-35 Solution:1. Fuel costs: $.40 × 16,000 miles per month = $6,400 per month.2. Equipment rental: $5,000 × 7 × 3 = $105,000 for seven pieces of equipment for three months3. Ambulance and EMT cost: $1,200 × (2,400/200) = $1,200 × 12 = $14,4004. Purchasing: $7,500 + $5 × 4,000 = $27,500 for the month.3-36 Solution:There may be some disagreement about these classifications, but reasons for alternative classifications should be explored.Cost Discretionary Committed Advertising $22,000Depreciation $ 47,000 Company health insurance 21,000 Management salaries 85,000 Payment of long-term debt 50,000 Property tax 32,000 Grounds maintenance 9,000Office remodeling 21,000Research and development 46,000Totals $98,000 $235,000。

Examples include clerical costs, documents, insurance, and unloading.2.Setup costs are the costs of preparingequipment and facilities so that they can be used for producing a product or component.Examples include wages of idled production workers, lost income, and the costs of test runs.3.Carrying costs are the costs of carrying in-ventory. Examples include insurance, taxes, handling costs, and the opportunity cost of capital tied up in inventory.4.Stockout costs are the costs of insufficientinventory (e.g., lost sales and interrupted production).5.As ordering costs decrease, fewer and larg-er orders must be placed. This, in turn, in-creases the units in inventory and, thus, in-creases carrying costs.6.Reasons for carrying inventory include thefollowing: (a) to balance setup and carrying costs; (b) to satisfy customer demand; (c) to avoid shutting down manufacturing facilities;(d) to take advantage of discounts; and (e)to hedge against future price increases.7.The economic order quantity is the amountthat should be ordered so as to minimize the sum of ordering and carrying costs.8.Reorder point = 3 12 = 36 units; Safetystock = 3(15 – 12) = 9 units9.Safety stock is simply the difference be-tween maximum demand and average de-mand, multiplied by the lead time. By reor-dering whenever the inventory level hits thesafety stock point, a company is ensured ofalways having sufficient inventory on hand tomeet demand.10.JIT minimizes carrying costs by driving in-ventories to insignificant levels. Orderingcosts are minimized by entering into long-term contracts with suppliers (or driving se-tup times to zero).11.JIT manufacturing is a demand-pull ap-proach to manufacturing. It differs from tradi-tional manufacturing by significantly reducingreliance on inventories, forming manufactur-ing cells, using interdisciplinary labor, decen-tralizing services, and adopting a philosophyof total quality control.12.Manufacturing cells are collections of ma-chines and labor dedicated to the productionof a single product or subassembly. Eachcell is capable of performing a variety of op-erations. This differs from the departmentalorganization where a collection of the samemachines is used to perform the same oper-ation on multiple products.13.By forming manufacturing cells that arededicated to a single product, all costs asso-ciated with the cell are traceable to the prod-uct. Machinery and services that formerlybelonged to several products now belongonly to a single product. For example, de-preciation, material handling, and mainten-ance become direct product costs.14.JIT hedges against future price increasesand obtains lower input prices (better usuallythan quantity discounts) by the use of long-term contractual relationships with suppliers.Suppliers are willing to give these breaks sothat they can reduce the uncertainty in thedemand for their products.15.EDI, or electronic data interchange, allowssuppliers to have access to a buyer’s dat a-base. Information on the buyer’s database isused to determine when supplies should bedelivered. When supplies arrive, their receiptis noted electronically, and payment is in-itiated. No paperwork is involved. Conti-nuous replenishment is where suppliers aregiven responsibility to replenish the buyer’sinventory stock. EDI facilitates this by provid-ing information (electronically) needed by thesupplier to make replenishment decisions. 16.Shutdowns in a JIT environment are avoidedby practicing total preventive maintenanceand total quality control and by developingclose relationships with suppliers to ensureon-time delivery of materials. Internally, aKanban system is used to ensure the timelyflow of materials and components.17.The Kanban system is used to ensure thatparts or materials are available whenneeded (just in time). The flow of materials iscontrolled through the use of markers orcards that signal production of the necessaryquantities at the necessary time.18.Constraints represent limited resources ordemand. Internal constraints are limiting fac-tors found within the firm. External con-straints are limiting factors imposed on thefirm from external sources.19.Loose constraints are those where the prod-uct mix chosen does not consume all theavailable resources. A binding constraint isone where the product mix uses all the li-mited resource.20.Following are three measures of organiza-tional performance used by the theory ofconstraints: throughput—the rate at whichan organization generates money; invento-ry—the money an organization spends inturning materials into throughput; and oper-ating expenses—the money the organiza-tion spends in turning inventories intothroughput. The objective is to maximizethroughput and minimize inventory and op-erating expenses.21.Lower inventories mean that a companymust pay attention to higher quality—it can-not afford to have production go down be-cause of defective parts or products. It alsomeans that improvements can reach thecustomer sooner. Lower inventories meanless space, less overtime, less equipment—in short, lower costs of production and, thus,lower prices are possible. Lower inventoriesalso mean (usually) shorter lead times andbetter ability then to respond to customer re-quests.22.Following are the five steps that TOC usesto improve organizational performance: (1)identify constraints, (2) exploit binding con-straints, (3) subordinate everything else todecisions made in Step 2, (4) elevate bind-ing constraints, and (5) repeat process.23.The drum is the binding constraint that setsthe production rate in the factory. The ropesimply means that the release of materials tothe first process is tied to the rate of thedrummer constraint. The buffer is an amountof inventory placed in front of the drummerprocess to protect throughput.EXERCISES19–11. Annual ordering cost = PD/Q= $500 ⨯ 96,000/6,000= $8,0002.

Lawn mowers require 9 batches per year (324,000/36,000). Jet ski engines re-quire 12.5 batches per year (750,000/60,000). The lead time for the lawn mow-er engines is 11 days and that of the jet ski engines is 12 days. Thus, the total work days needed to produce the annual demand is 249 [(11 ⨯9) + (12 ⨯12.5)]. Since there are 250 work days available each year, it is possible tomeet the annual demand. Given the initial inventory levels of each product, the daily and annual demand, and the lead times, Shields must build a sche-dule that coordinates production, inventory usage, and sales. This is a push system because production and inventory use anticipated demand rather than current demand.19–61.

If the setuptime is 0.05 day (about 1 hour), then the firm can produce 4,000 ⨯ 0.95 = 3,800 units per day, sufficient to meet the combined daily demand for the two en-gines. This implies the ability to produce on demand and eliminates the need to carry finished goods inventory, a JIT objective.19–7Maximum daily usage 1,750Average daily usage 1,500Difference 250Lead time ⨯ 5Safety stock 1,250Reorder point = (Average rate of usage ⨯ Lead time) + Safety stock= (1,500 ⨯ 5) + 1,250= 8,750 units1. a. JIT does not accept setup (or ordering) costs as a given; rather, JIT at-tempts to drive these costs to zero through reducing the time it takes to set up and by developing long-term contracts with suppliers. Carrying costs are minimized by reducing inventories to insignificant levels.b. JIT reduces lead times, which increases a firm’s ability to meet requesteddelivery dates. This is accomplished by (1) reduction of setup times, (2) improved quality, and (3) cellular manufacturing.c. The problems that usually cause shutdowns are (1) machine failure, (2) de-fective material or subassembly, and (3) unavailability of a material or subassembly, or (4) late delivery of parts. JIT attempts to solve each of the four problems by emphasizing total preventive maintenance and total quality control (strives for zero defects) and building the right kind of rela-tionship with suppliers.d. Unreliable production processes are addressed by total quality man-agement. As fewer and fewer defective units are produced, there is less and less need for inventory to replace nonconforming units.e. The objective of taking advantage of discounts is to lower the cost of in-ventory. JIT accomplishes the same objective by negotiating long-term contracts with a few chosen suppliers and establishing more extensive supplier involvement.f. JIT emphasizes long-term contracts that stipulate prices and acceptablequality levels.2. JIT has the policy of stopping production if a problem is detected so that theproblem can be corrected (of course, the problem may also cause production to stop, independent of a policy or practice of stopping so that the source of the problem can be corrected). Since JIT produces on demand, any interrup-tion of production means that throughput is lost. TOC uses a time buffer lo-cated in front of the binding constraint to protect throughput. The time buffer is designed to keep the constrained resource busy for a specified period of time, a time long enough to overcome most disruptions in production.1. The withdrawal Kanban controls movement of work among the manufactur-ing processes. It specifies the quantity that a subsequent process should withdraw from the preceding process.2. The production Kanban also controls movement of work among the manufac-turing processes. It specifies the quantity that the preceding process should produce.3. The vendor Kanban controls movement of parts between the processes andoutside suppliers. It is used to notify suppliers to deliver more parts.19–10The phrase ―implementing JIT‖ conveys to many the notion that one day a co m-pany is conventional and the next day it is JIT with all of the benefits that are typ-ically assigned to JIT. In reality, changing to a JIT environment takes time and pa-tience. It is more of an evolutionary process than a revolutionary process. It takes time to build a ―partners-in-profits‖ relationship with su ppliers. Many firms at-tempt to force the JIT practices with suppliers by dictating terms, but this ap-proach really runs counter to the notion of developing close relationships, some-thing that is vital for the JIT purchasing side to work. There must be trust and mutual benefits, not unilateral benefits, for JIT purchasing to become a success. Also, management should be aware of the disequilibrium that workers may expe-rience with JIT. Many workers may view JIT methodology as simply a way of ex-tracting more and more work out of them with no compensating benefits. Others may see JIT as a threat to their job security as the nonvalue-added activities they perform are eliminated or reduced. Furthermore, management should be ready and willing to place some current sales at risk with the hope of ensuring stronger future sales, or with the hope of reducing inventory and operating costs to im-prove overall profitability. How else can you justify lost sales due to production stoppages that are designed to improve quality and efficiency?1. e2. a3. d4. e5. c19–121. Before JIT unit cost: $247,100/100,000 = $2.471After JIT unit cost: $232,100/100,000 = $2.321JIT costing is more accurate because there are more costs that are traceable to each product.2.

Lavel can produce 100,000 (30,000/0.2) Type II rods per year. These 100,000 units, multiplied by the $16 contribution margin per unit, would yield a total contribution margin of $1,600,000.2. Produce and sell 75,000 Type II rods, which would use 15,000 machine hours.Then, produce and sell 10,000 Type I rods, which would use the remaining 5,000 machine hours.Total contribution margin = ($16 ⨯ 75,000) + ($20 ⨯ 10,000)= $1,400,00019–141. The production rate is 600 regular bows per day and 200 deluxe bows perday. The rate is set by the molding process. It is the drummer process since it is the only one with a buffer inventory in front of it.2. Goicoechea has 0.5 day of buffer inventory (400 bows/800 bows per day).This time buffer is determined by how long it takes the plant to correct prob-lems that create production interruptions.3. A is the rope, B is the time buffer, and C is the drummer constraint. The ropeties the production rate of the drummer constraint to the release of raw mate-rials to the first process. The time buffer is used to protect throughput. Suffi-cient inventory is needed to keep the bottleneck operating if the first process goes down. The drummer sets the production rate.PROBLEMS 19–151.

EOQ = 2PD/C= 3,⨯,(⨯6000360002/)= 000000,144,= 12,000 (batch size)Geneva’s response was correct given its current production environment.The setup time is two working days. The production rate possible is 750 units per day after setup. Thus, the time required to produce the additional 9,000 units would be 14 working days [2 + (9,000/750)].2. To have met the order’s requirements, Geneva could have produced 3,750units within the 7-work-day window [(7 – 2)750] and would have needed 8,250 units in stock—5,250 more than available. Solving delivery problems like the one described would likely require much more inventory than is currently car-ried. If the maximum demand is predictable, then safety stock could be used.The demand can be as much as 9,000 units per year above the expected de-mand. If it is common for all of this extra demand to occur from one or a few large orders, then protecting against lost sales could demand a sizable in-crease in inventory, an approach that could be quite costly. Perhaps some safety stock with expediting and overtime would be more practical. Or, per-haps Geneva should explore alternative inventory management approaches such as those associated with JIT or TOC.3. EOQ = 2PD/C= 3(⨯,⨯362/)00094= 000,2562,≈ 1,502 (batch size)The new lead time = (1.5 hours) + [(1,502/2,000) ⨯ 8 hours]≈ 7.5 hours, or about one work day19–17 ConcludedAt a production rate of 2,000 units per day, Geneva could have satisfied the customer’s time requirements in less than seven days, even without any f i-nished goods inventory. This illustrates very forcefully that inventory may not be the solution to meeting customer needs or dealing with demand uncertain-ty. Perhaps paying attention to setup, moving, and waiting activities offers more benefits. JIT tends to produce smaller batches and shorter cycle times than conventional manufacturing environments. As the EOQ batch size com-putation revealed, by focusing on improving the way production is done, the batch size could be reduced to about 12.5 percent of what it was before the improvements.4. EOQ = 2PD/C= 3(⨯⨯2/),1000036= 000240,≈ 490 (batch size)This further reduction in setup time and cost reduces the batch size even more. As the setup time is reduced to even lower levels and the cost is re-duced, the batch size becomes even smaller.If the cost is $0.864, the batch size is 144:EOQ = 2PD/C= 3,2/)(⨯⨯.00036864= 73620,= 144 (batch size)Furthermore, with the ability to produce 2,000 units per day or 250 units per hour, the day’s demand (36,000/250 = 144) can b e produced in less than an hour. This provides the ability to produce on demand. The key to this out-come was the decrease in setup time and the reduction of wait and move time—all nonvalue-added activities. This illustrates what is meant by refer-ring to inventory management as an ancillary benefit of JIT.19–181. a. The expected demand for the RJ47 battery during the lead time is calcu-lated as the sum of the demand during the lead time times the demand probability for all demand points:Expected demand = (100 ⨯ 0.03) + (200 ⨯ 0.05) + (300 ⨯ 0.20) + (400 ⨯ 0.40)+ (500 ⨯ 0.25) + (600 ⨯ 0.07)= 400b. The reorder point to minimize stockouts would be the maximum demandduring lead time, or 600 units.2. The probability of a stockout at a special reorder point is the sum of theprobabilities for demand greater than the reorder point of 400 units: Probability of 500 units 0.25Probability of 600 units 0.07Total 0.3219–191. KEVCO can expect the following effects:Planning:∙Production planning will change from a centralized batch function process to a more decentralized activity. In some cases, production teams will be responsible for the entire production process of a product.∙The method and timing of how the company prepares its production sche-dules (including capacity requirements) will change to parallel the demand pull approach as opposed to the push approach.∙The Purchasing Department will need production to have high-quality, reli-able, and flexible suppliers who can quickly deliver orders of varying sizes as needed.19–19 ConcludedOperations:∙Setup time changes will reduce lead times significantly.∙ A Kanban system will need to be implemented. A triggering device such asa Kanban card is necessary so that the department or cell knows when tobegin production.∙Greater employee participation will result from cell production team ar-rangements.2. At least five benefits:∙Less rework and fewer defective units because of cell-level accountability and control and product solving at the cell level.∙ A lower cash investment in inventory and plant space. Handling, storage, insurance, breakage, and obsolescence will all be lower.∙More satisfied customers should result because of shorter lead times and higher quality.∙Improved labor productivity as a result of rearranging the production process and the creation of manufacturing cell teams.∙ A reduction of the number of suppliers leading to improved relationships and communication.∙More accurate product costing because direct tracing increases.3. Behavioral effects:∙Higher team morale and motivation, since each cell team is responsible for all cell production and will, therefore, have more control over its work and an increased sense of ownership.∙Higher individual satisfaction, development, and motivation, as manage-ment will encourage participation, training, and input on how to improve the product and production process.∙ A possible resistance to change by those employees who may feel inse-cure or threatened by the change.∙ A sense of partnership with management in achieving the goals and objec-tives of the organization resulting in goal congruence.1. The entire Kanban cycle begins with the need to produce a final product—aproduct demanded by a customer. The demand for a product to be assembled is known from the production schedule. Assume that a final product is needed. The withdrawal Kanban controls movement of work between the as-sembly process and the manufacturing processes. It specifies the quantity that a subsequent process should withdraw from the preceding process. The assembly process uses withdrawal Kanbans to notify the first process that more subassemblies are needed. This is done by having an assembly worker remove the withdrawal Kanban from the container in the withdrawal store and place it on the withdrawal post. This W-Kanban signals that the assembly process is using one unit of Subassembly A and that a replacement for it is needed. The replacement activity is initiated by a carrier who removes the production Kanban from the container of subassemblies in the SB stores area and places this P-Kanban on the production post. The container in the SB stores area is then moved to the withdrawal stores area with the W-Kanban attached (taken from the withdrawal post). The production Kanban tells the workers in the Subassembly A cell to begin producing another unit.The production Kanban is removed and goes with the unit produced (which goes to the SB stores area). This Kanban system ensures that the second process withdraws subassemblies from the first process in the necessary quantity at the necessary time. The Kanban system also controls the first process by allowing it to produce only the quantities withdrawn by the second process. In this way, inventories are kept at a minimum, and the components arrive just in time to be used.2. The second process uses a vendor Kanban to signal the supplier that anotherorder is needed. The process is similar to the internal flow described in Re-quirement 1. However, for the process to work with suppliers, the suppliers must be willing to make frequent and small deliveries. It also means that the supply activity works best if the supplier is located in close proximity to the buyer. The subassemblies must be delivered just in time for use. This calls for a close working relationship with the supplier. The inventory function on the materials side is largely assumed by the supplier. To bear this cost, there must be some compensating benefits for the supplier. Long-term contracts and the reduction of demand uncertainty are significant benefits for the sup-plier. EDI can facilitate the entire arrangement. If the supplier has access to the buyer’s on-line database, then the supplier can use the buyer’s produ c-tion schedule to determine its own production and delivery schedule, making it easier to deliver parts just in time. In effect, the supplier and buyer almost operate as one company.1. ImmuneBoost: CM per machine hour = ($4.00 – $2.40)/1.60= $1.00MentaGrowth: CM per machine hour = ($4.80 – $3.60)/0.80= $1.50Since MentaGrowth provides the greatest contribution per machine hour, the company should produce 800,000 bottles of MentaGrowth (640,000/0.8) and zero bottles of ImmuneBoost. The total contribution margin is 800,000 ⨯ $1.50 = $1,200,000.2. First, the company should produce 480,000 bottles of MentaGrowth. Thisuses up 384,000 machine hours (480,000 ⨯ 0.8). The remaining hours can then be used to produce 160,000 bottles of ImmuneBoost (256,000/1.6). Thus, the optimal mix is 160,000 bottles of ImmuneBoost and 480,000 bottles of Menta-Growth. The maximum total contribution margin is $832,000 [($1.60 ⨯ 160,000) + ($1.20 ⨯ 480,000)].19–221. Dept. B Dept.

《管理会计》英文版课后习题答案
第二章产品成本计算Exercises2–1(指教材上的第2章练习第1题,下同)1. Part #72A Part #172CSteel* $ 12.00 $ 18.00Setup cost** 6.00 6.00Total $ 18.00 $ 24.00*($1.00 ? 12; $1.00 ? 18)**($60,000/10,000)Steel cost is assigned by calculating a cost per ounce and then multiplying this by the ounces used by each part:Cost per ounce= $3,000,000/3,000,000 ounces= $1.00 per ounceSetup cost is assigned by calculating the cost per setup and then dividing this by the number of units in each batch (there are 20 setups per year):Cost per setup = $1,200,000/20= $60,0002. The cost of steel is assigned through the driver tracing using the number of ounces of steel, and the cost of the setups is assigned through driver tracing also using number of setups as the driver.3. The assumption underlying number of setups as the driver is that each part uses an equal amount of setup time. Since Part #72A uses double the setup time of Part #172C, it makes sense to assign setup costs based on setup time instead of number of setups. This illustrates the importance of identifying drivers that reflect the true underlying consumption pattern. Using setup hours [(40 ?10) + (20 ? 10)], we get the following rate per hour:Cost per setup hour = $1,200,000/600= $2,000 per hourThe cost per unit is obtained by dividing each part’s total setup costs by the number of units:Part #72A = ($2,000 ? 400)/100,000 = $8.00Part #172C = ($2,000 ? 200)/100,000 = $4.00Thus, Part #72A has its unit cost increased by $2.00, while Part #172C has its unit cost decreased by $2.00.problems2–51. Nursing hours required per year: 4 ? 24 hours ? 364 days* = 34,944*Note: 364 days = 7 days ? 52 weeksNumber of nurses = 34,944 hrs./2,000 hrs. per nurse = 17.472Annual nursing cost = (17 ? $45,000) + $22,500= $787,500Cost per patient day = $787,500/10,000 days= $78.75 per day (for either type of patient)2. Nursing hours act as the driver. If intensive care uses half of the hours and normal care the other half, then 50 percent of the cost is assigned to each patient category. Thus, the cost per patient day by patient category is as follows:Intensive care = $393,750*/2,000 days= $196.88 per dayNormal care = $393,750/8,000 days= $49.22 per day*$525,000/2 = $262,500The cost assignment reflects the actual usage of the nursing resource and, thus, should be more accurate. Patient days would be accurate only if intensive care patients used the same nursing hours per day as normal care patients.3. The salary of the nurse assigned only to intensive care is a directly traceable cost. To assign the other nursing costs, the hours of additional usage would need to be measured. Thus, both direct tracing and driver tracing would be used to assign nursing costs for this new setting.2–61. Bella Obra CompanyStatement of Cost of Services SoldFor the Year Ended June 30, 2006Direct materials:Beginning inventory $ 300,000Add: Purchases 600,000Materials available $ 900,000Less: Ending inventory 450,000*Direct materials used $ 450,000Direct labor 12,000,000Overhead 1,500,000Total service costs added $ 13,950,000Add: Beginning work in process 900,000Total production costs $ 14,850,000Less: Ending work in process 1,500,000Cost of services sold $ 13,350,000*Materials available less materials used2. The dominant cost is direct labor (presumably the salaries of the 100 professionals). Although labor is the major cost of providing many services, it is not always the case. For example, the dominant cost for some medical services may be overhead (e.g., CAT scans). In some services, the dominant cost may be materials (e.g., funeral services).3. Bella Obra CompanyIncome StatementFor the Year Ended June 30, 2006Sales $ 21,000,000Cost of services sold 13,350,000Gross margin $ 7,650,000Less operating expenses:Selling expenses $ 900,000Administrative expenses 750,000 1,650,000Income before income taxes $ 6,000,0004. Services have four attributes that are not possessed by tangible products: (1) intangibility, (2) perishability, (3) inseparability, and (4) heterogeneity. Intangibility means that the buyers of services cannot see, feel, hear, or taste a service before it is bought. Perishability means that services cannot be stored. This property affects the computation in Requirement 1. Inability to store services means that there will never be any finished goods inventories, thus making the cost of services produced equivalent to cost of services sold. Inseparability simply means that providers and buyers of services must be in direct contact for an exchange to take place. Heterogeneity refers to the greater chance for variation in the performance of services than in the production of tangible products.2–71. Direct materials:Magazine (5,000 ? $0.40) $ 2,000Brochure (10,000 ? $0.08) 800 $ 2,800Direct labor:Magazine [(5,000/20) ? $10] $ 2,500Brochure [(10,000/100) ? $10] 1,000 3,500Manufacturing overhead:Rent $ 1,400Depreciation [($40,000/20,000) ? 350*] 700Setups 600Insurance 140Power 350 3,190Cost of goods manufactured $ 9,490*Production is 20 units per printing hour for magazines and 100 units per printing hour for brochures, yielding monthly machine hours of 350 [(5,000/20) + (10,000/100)]. This is also monthly labor hours, as machine labor only operates the presses.2. Direct materials $ 2,800Direct labor 3,500Total prime costs $ 6,300Magazine:Direct materials $ 2,000Direct labor 2,500Total prime costs $ 4,500Brochure:Direct materials $ 800Direct labor 1,000Total prime costs $ 1,800Direct tracing was used to assign prime costs to the two products.3. Total monthly conversion cost:Direct labor $ 3,500Overhead 3,190Total $ 6,690Magazine:Direct labor $ 2,500Overhead:Power ($1 ? 250) $ 250Depreciation ($2 ? 250) 500Setups (2/3 ? $600) 400Rent and insurance ($4.40 ? 250 DLH)* 1,100 2,250Total $ 4,750Brochure:Direct labor $ 1,000Overhead:Power ($1 ? 100) $ 100Depreciation ($2 ? 100) 200Setups (1/3 ? $600) 200Rent and insurance ($4.40 ? 100 DLH)* 440 940Total $ 1,940*Rent and insurance cannot be traced to each product so the costs are assigned using direct labor hours: $1,540/350 DLH = $4.40 per direct labor hour. The other overhead costs are traced according to their usage. Depreciation and power are assigned by using machine hours (250 for magazines and 100 for brochures): $350/350 = $1.00 per machine hour for power and $40,000/20,000 = $2.00 per machine hour for depreciation. Setups are assigned according to the time required. Since magazines use twice as much time, they receive twice the cost: Letting X = the pro?portion of setup time used for brochures, 2X + X = 1 implies a cost assignment ratio of 2/3 for magazines and 1/3 for brochures.Exercises3–11.

Plastic, direct labor, and variable overhead are flexible resources; molds and other facility costs are committed resources. The cost of plastic, direct labor, and variable overhead are strictly variable. The cost of the molds is fixed for the particular action figure being produced; it is a step cost for the production of action figures in general. Other facility costs are strictly fixed.3–3High (1,400, $7,950); Low (700, $5,150)V = ($7,950 – $5,150)/(1,400 – 700)= $2,800/700 = $4 per oil changeF = $5,150 – $4(700)= $5,150 – $2,800 = $2,350Cost = $2,350 + $4 (oil changes)Predicted cost for January = $2,350 + $4(1,000) = $6,350problems3–61.

Adding Level 4 bikes will increase the use of the most expensive activities, meaning that the rental rate will no longer be an average of $5 per rental day. Mountain View Rentals might need to set a Level 4 price based on the increased cost of both the bike and conversion cost.分步成本法6–11.

Since direct materials and direct labor are directly traceable to each product, their cost assignment should be accurate.2. Elegant: (1.75 ? $9,000)/3,000 = $5.25 per briefcaseFina: (1.75 ? $3,000)/3,000 = $1.75 per briefcaseNote: Overhead rate = $21,000/$12,000 = $1.75 per direct labor dollar (or 175 percent of direct labor cost).There are more machine and setup costs assigned to Elegant than Fina. This is clearly a distortion because the production of Fina is automated and uses the machine resources much more than the handcrafted Elegant. In fact, the consumption ratio for machining is 0.10 and 0.90 (using machine hours as the measure of usage). Thus, Fina uses nine times the machining resources as Elegant. Setup costs are similarly distorted. The products use an equal number of setups hours. Yet, if direct labor dollars are used, then the Elegant briefcase receives three times more machining costs than the Fina briefcase.3. Overhead rate = $21,000/5,000= $4.20 per MHrElegant: ($4.20 ? 500)/3,000 = $0.70 per briefcaseFina: ($4.20 ? 4,500)/3,000 = $6.30 per briefcaseThis cost assignment appears more reasonable given the relative demands each product places on machine resources. However, once a firm moves to a multiproduct setting, using only one activity driver to assign costs will likely produce product cost distortions. Products tend to make different demands on overhead activities, and this should be reflected in overhead cost assignments. Usually, this means the use of both unit- and nonunit-level activity drivers. In this example, there is a unit-level activity (machining) and a nonunit-level activity (setting up equipment). The consumption ratios for each (using machine hours and setup hours as the activity drivers) are as follows:Elegant FinaMachining 0.10 0.90 (500/5,000 and 4,500/5,000)Setups 0.50 0.50 (100/200 and 100/200)Setup costs are not assigned accurately. Two activity rates are needed—one based on machine hours and the other on setup hours:Machine rate: $18,000/5,000 = $3.60 per MHrSetup rate: $3,000/200 = $15 per setup hourCosts assigned to each product:Machining: Elegant Fina$3.60 ? 500 $ 1,800$3.60 ? 4,500 $ 16,200Setups:$15 ? 100 1,500 1,500Total $ 3,300 $ 17,700Units ÷3,000 ÷3,000Unit overhead cost $ 1.10 $ 5.904:Elegant Unit overhead cost:[9000+3000+18000*500/5000+3000/2]/3000=$5.1 Fina Unit overhead cost:[3000+3000+18000*4500/5000+3000/2]/3000=$7.94–51.

Using activity-based costing, a much different picture of the deluxe and regular products emerges. The regular model appears to be more profitable. Perhaps it should be emphasized.4–61.

Using activity assign?ments, this drops to $340,000/20 = $17,000 per order, a difference of $20,500 per order. For an order of 5,000 units, the order price can be decreased by $4.10 per unit without affecting customer profitability. Overall profitability will decrease, however, unless the price for orders is increased to JIT customers.3. It sounds like the JIT buyers are switching their inventory carrying costs to Emery without any significant benefit to Emery. Emery needs to increase prices to reflect the additional demands on customer-support activities. Furthermore, additional price increases may be needed to reflectthe increased number of setups, purchases, and so on, that are likely occurring inside the plant. Emery should also immediately initiate discussions with its JIT customers to begin negotiations for achieving some of the benefits that a JIT supplier should have, such as long-term contracts. The benefits of long-term contracting may offset most or all of the increased costs from the additional demands made on other activities.4–71. Supplier cost:First, calculate the activity rates for assigning costs to suppliers:Inspecting components: $240,000/2,000 = $120 per sampling hourReworking products: $760,500/1,500 = $507 per rework hourWarranty work: $4,800/8,000 = $600 per warranty hourNext, calculate the cost per component by supplier:Supplier cost:Vance FoyPurchase cost:$23.50 ? 400,000 $ 9,400,000$21.50 ? 1,600,000 $ 34,400,000Inspecting components:$120 ? 40 4,800$120 ? 1,960 235,200Reworking products:$507 ? 90 45,630$507 ? 1,410 714,870Warranty work:$600 ? 400 240,000$600 ? 7,600 4,560,000Total supplier cost $ 9,690,430 $ 39,910,070Units supplied ÷400,000 ÷1,600,000Unit cost $ 24.23* $ 24.94**RoundedThe difference is in favor of Vance; however, when the price concession is considered, the cost of Vance is $23.23, which is less than Foy’s component. Lumus should accept the contractual offer made by Vance.4–7 Concluded2. Warranty hours would act as the best driver of the three choices. Using this driver, the rate is $1,000,000/8,000 = $125 per warranty hour. The cost assigned to each component would be:Vance FoyLost sales:$125 ? 400 $ 50,000$125 ? 7,600 $ 950,000$ 50,000 $ 950,000Units supplied ÷400,000 ÷1,600,000Increase in unit cost $ 0.13* $ 0.59**Rounded$0.075 per unitCategory II: $45/1,000 = $0.045 per unitCategory III: $45/1,500 = $0.03 per unitCategory I, which has the smallest batches, is the most undercosted of the three categories. Furthermore, the unit ordering cost is quite high relative to Category I’s selling price (9 to 15 percent of the selling price). This suggests that something should be done to reduce the order-filling costs.3. With the pricing incentive feature, the average order size has been increased to 2,000 units for all three product families. The number of orders now processed can be calculated as follows:Orders = [(600 ? 50,000) + (1,000 ? 30,000) + (1,500 ? 20,000)]/2,000= 45,000Reduction in orders = 100,000 – 45,000 = 55,000Steps that can be reduced = 55,000/2,000 = 27 (rounding down to nearest whole number)There were initially 50 steps: 100,000/2,000Reduction in resource spending:Step-fixed costs: $50,000 ? 27 = $1,350,000Variable activity costs: $20 ? 55,000 = 1,100,000$2,450,000预算9-4Norton, Inc.Sales Budget For the Coming YearModel Units Price Total SalesLB-1 50,400 $29.00 $1,461,600LB-2 19,800 15.00 297,000WE-6 25,200 10.40 262,080 WE-7 17,820 10.00 178,200 WE-8 9,600 22.00 211,200 WE-9 4,000 26.00 104,000 Total $2,514,080二、1.

管理会计课后答案
习题一管理会计概述三、填空题1.管理会计工作可渗透企业的各个方面,它既为企业总体管理服务,本身又属于整个企业管理系统的有机组成部分,并处于价值管理的核心地位。
2.管理会计的基本职能可概括为以下五个方面:(1)预测经济前景;(2)参与经济决策;(3)规划经营目标;(4) 控制经济过程;(5)考核评价经营业绩。
其中,规划职能是通过编制各种计划和预算实现的,考核评价职能是通过建立责任会计制度实现的。
3.管理会计的内容是指与其职能相适应的工作内容,包括预测分析、决策分析全面预算、成本控制、责任会计等方面。
其中,预测分析与决策分析合称为预测决策会计;全面预算和成本控制合称为规划控制会计;这两者与责任会计相辅相成构成现代管理会计的基本内容。
4.预测决策会计处于现代管理会计的核心地位,又是现代管理会计形成的关键标志之一。
5.传统管理会计阶段是从20世纪初至50年代,管理会计原始雏形形成的标志是美国企业会计实务中出现了以差异分析为主要内容的“标准成本计算制度”和“预算控制”预算。
此时,管理会计的内容主要包括和。
但在实践中,其职能集中体现在控制方面,故人称传统管理会计阶段的特征是以控制会计为核心。
6.现代管理会计阶段完善发展了规划控制会计的内容,且逐步充实了预测决策会计和责任会计等内容,基本上形成了以预测决策会计为主、以规划控制会计和责任会计为辅的现代管理会计新体系。
7.管理会计与财务会计工作主体(范围)的层次不同 (同或不同),管理会计的工作主体可以是整个企业,也可以是企业内部的局部区域或个别部门甚至某一管理环节;财务会计的工作主体往往是整个企业。
它们的工作对象从总的方面看基本相同(同或不同),即工作客体有相似之处。
四、判断题1.美国全国会计师联合会的一个下属委员会指出管理会计仅适用于盈利性质的单位进行决策分析和规划控制。
(×)2.国际上一般认为管理会计的活动领域不应仅限于“微观”,还应扩展到“宏观”。
