Introduction and Course Overview
This unit consists of four main parts:
1.Cost concepts, cost classifications and cost flow (week 1)
2.Using costs for decision making (week 2-4)
3.Costing techniques, including job/process costing and
overhead cost allocation (week 5-10)

What is Management Accounting?
Management accounting can be defined as:
… the processes and techniques that focus on the effective
and efficient use of organisational resources to support
managers in their tasks of enhancing both customer value
and shareholder value.
Examples of management accounting decisions:
•Pricing
•Add or drop a product
•Accept a special order or not

Cost concepts
What are costs?
– Resources given up to achieve a particular objective
– Measured in monetary terms
What is a cost object?
An item for which management wants a separate measure of costs
What is a cost driver?
A factor or activity that causes a cost to be incurred
What is the level of activity?
The level of work performed in the organisation (e.g. hours worked,
units produced)
12
Cost classifications
Different cost classifications are used for different purposes,
and the same cost can be classified in a number of ways
depending on the intended use of the cost information.
Basis of classifications
Cost Classifications
1.Behaviour
Variable and fixed costs
2.Traceability
Direct and indirect costs
3.Timing of the expense
Product and period costs
4.Manufacturing costs
Direct material, direct labour and manufacturing
overhead
5.Value chain
Upstream, manufacturing and downstream costs
6.Controllability
Controllable and uncontrollable costs
13
Cost classifications cont.
1. Basis of classification: Behaviour
• Variable cost
– Changes in total in proportion to changes in the level of
activity ( e.g. cost of electricity used to manufacture a
product)
• Fixed cost
– Remain unchanged in total despite changes in the level of
activity (e.g. rent paid for factory remains unchanged no
matter how many units we produce)

Cost classifications
2. Basis of classification: Traceability
• Direct cost
can be directly identified with or traced or linked to a cost object in an
economic manner.
• Indirect costs
cannot be identified with or traced or linked to a cost object in an
economic manner.
Example: Assume a office desk is a cost object, then:
1.Cost of wood: Direct or Indirect? Direct
2.Cost of glue: Direct or Indirect? Indirect
3.Salary of the production supervisor: Direct or Indirect?
Indirect
16
Cost classifications cont.
3. Basis of classification: timing of the expense
• Product cost
•The cost assigned to goods/services that were manufactured or
purchased for resale. Product cost is regarded as a part of the asset /
inventory until goods are sold.
• Period cost
The costs expensed in the accounting period in which they are
incurred rather than being attached to units purchased or produced.
(e.g. salaries of sales staff, advertising expense, depreciation of office
 equipment)
17
Cost classifications cont.
4. Basis of classification: Manufacturing/ product costs
• Direct material
- Materials that eventually become part of the cost object
- Can be directly traced and linked to the cost object in an economic
manner
• Direct Labour
- All manufacturing labour that can be directly traced or linked
to cost object (e.g. wages paid to production workers, workers’
compensation insurance and superannuation contributions)
• Manufacturing overhead (indirect manufacturing costs)
- All manufacturing costs other than direct material and direct
labour. (e.g. the cost of indirect material, indirect labour, depreciation and
insurance on factory equipment)
18
Lecture example 2
For each of the costs listed below, indicate whether it is
direct material (DM), direct labour (DL), manufacturing
overhead (MOH) or period cost

Classifications
Flour used in making pizza

MOH

19
Manufacturing Overhead
Manufacturing overhead costs also usually include overtime
premium and the cost of idle time:
• Overtime premium: extra wages paid to an employee who works beyond
normal working hours.
e.g. Assume regular wage =$30/hr ; overtime wage = $45/hr, assume John
worked an additional hour and was paid $45 , then the $45 can be classified
into:
DL:
$30
MOH (overtime premium): $15
• Idle time: the cost of employees’ non-productive time, arising from events
such as equipment breakdowns or new setups of production runs.
20
Lecture example 3
Highlander Cutlery manufactures kitchen knives. One of the employees, whose job
is to cut out wooden knife handles, worked 48 hours during a week in January,
including 1 hour idle time due to power outage. The employee earns $10 per hour
for a 38-hour week. For additional hours, the employee is paid an overtime rate of
$15 per hour.
Calculate:
(1)The total cost of the employee’s wages during the week
(2)Determine the portion of this cost to be classified in DL, MOH (idle time), MOH
(overtime premium).

Total wages
38×$10+ (48-38)×$15

(2) Direct Labour = (48-1) ×$10 = $470
MOH (overtime premium) = (48-38) ×($15-$10)
= 10 hrs ×$5
= $50
MOH (idle time) = 1 × $10 = $10

Ivory Company produces and sells ice-cream. Classify the costs
listed below, using these value chain classifications:
Cost
Classifications
Cost of cream used to make the ice-cream
Manufacturing- DM
Electricity used to store finished ice-cream products
Distribution
Cost of fuel for delivery trucks
Distribution
Wages paid to staff who make the ice-cream
Manufacturing -DL

ice-cream flavours

Cost classifications cont.
6. Basis of classification: controllability
• Controllable cost
a cost that a specific manager can control or significantly influence.
• Uncontrollable cost
a cost that a manager cannot control or significantly influence.
Example: For a production manager, are the salaries of the CEOs
controllable costs? No.
Are the wages of production workers controllable costs? Yes

Cost flow in a manufacturing business
Explanations of T-accounts:
1. Material is purchased: the cost is added to RM inventory;
2. DM are consumed in production: cost is removed from RM inventory
and added to WIP inventory;
3. DL and MOH are accumulated in WIP inventory;
4. Products are completed: costs are transferred from WIP inventory
and added to finished goods inventory;
5. Products are sold: costs are transferred from finished goods
inventory to cost of goods sold expense
