2 Introduction Cost classification Profit Volume Ratio ( P V ) ratio Break Even Point Margin of Safety Shut Down Point Cost Indifference Point Cash Break Even point Break even charts & Angle of Incidence Marginal Costing Vs. Absorption Costing

3 Technique of Costing For Managerial Decision Making To Measure Profitability of Products To study Cost Volume Profit Analysis On the basis of nature of costs Mainly Fixed and Variable costs

4 Costs Fixed Variable Semi Variable

5 Cost Classification Fixed Cost Variable Costs Semi Variable Costs : Change with Level of Activity Changes in exact proportion with level of Activity Changes with level of activity but not in exact proportion Example: Rent, Salary etc. Example: Material, Labour etc Example: Maintenance costs etc

6 Relation between Contribution and Sales Also Known as Contribution to Sales Ratio P V Ratio = Total Contribution/Total Sales Contribution per unit/sales per unit ( Fixed Cost + Profit )/ Sales ( Sales- Variable costs)/ Sales 1- Variable Cost Ratio Profit/ Margin of Safety Fixed Costs / Break Even Point Change in Contribution/Change in sales Change in Profit /Change in Sales

7 Sales Where Total Costs is equal to Total Sales Total costs = Fixed Costs + Variable Costs At BEP There is No Profit or No Loss Total Contribution = Fixed Costs Contribution =( Sales Variable costs) or Fixed costs + Profit) BEP ( in units) = Total Fixed Costs/Contribution per unit BEP ( in amount) = Total Fixed costs / Profit Volume Ratio

8 Excess of Sales over Break Even Sales MOS = Sales BEP Alternatively MOS = Profit / Contribution per unit Profit / P V Ratio Profit = MOS x P V Ratio ( in units) ( in amount) P V Ratio = Profit / MOS

9 Sales below which Business can not be persued Temporary Closure of Business To Avoid Off Season, Recession etc Here Business must be able to generate Avoidable Fixed Costs Avoidable Fixed Costs = Total Fixed Costs Minimum or unavoidable fixed costs Shut Down Point = Avoidable Fixed Costs / Contribution p.u. (in units ) Avoidable Fixed Costs / P V Ratio ( in amount )

10 Activity Level at which Two different Options result in same Costs Cost Indifference Point = Change in Fixed Costs /Change in variable Costs per unit

11 Here Only Cash Fixed Costs are Considered Non cash costs like Depreciation etc are not Considered Cash Break Even Point = Cash Fixed Costs / Contribution p u Cash Fixed Costs / P V Ratio ( in units) (in amount)

13 Costs are classified on the Basis of Functions All costs of production (Fixed or Variable) are included in Inventory Valuation

14 sales value xxxx less: Direct materials (xxxx) less: Direct labour (xxxx) less: Factory overheads (xxxx) Gross profit xxxx less: Administrative expense (xxxx) less: Selling & Distribution expense (xxxx) Net profit xxxx

15 Sales Less: Variable Costs D. Material D. Labour D. Expenses Var. Production Overheads Var. Selling & Distribution Overheads Contribution Less: Fixed Costs Fixed Production Overheads Administrative Overheads Fixed Selling & Distribution Overheads Net Profit xx xx xx xx xx

17 A Company produces a product whose Selling Price is Rs. 25 per unit. Variable Cost is Rs. 15 per unit and Total fixed Cost is Rs Company is producing and selling units Find Contribution per unit P V Ratio Break Even Point Margin of safety Shut Down Point if Minimum Fixed Cost is Rs

18 Contribution per unit = Sales Variable cost Hence Contribution per unit=rs.25-15=rs.10 P V Ratio=Contribution /Sales So, P V Ratio=10/25=40% Break Even Point = Total Fixed Cost /PV Ratio So, Break Even Point= 15000/40%=Rs Note : Break even Point can also computed in terms of units. In that case BEP=Total fixed Costs /Contribution Per Unit BEP =15000/10=1500 units

19 Margin of Safety (MOS) = Sales BEP MOS ( in units ) = =500 units MOS (in amount) =2000 * =Rs Shut down point = Avoidable fixed cost/contribution per unit (in units ) Avoidable Fixed cost / PV Ratio ( in amount) Note : Avoidable Fixed Cost = Total Fixed Cost Minimum Fixed Cost Rs = Rs Shut Down Point = Rs. 5000/10 = 500 units Shut Down Point =Rs. 5000/ 40% =Rs 12500

21 A Company is to select a machine out of 2 machines A & B. Machine A has a Fixed Cost of Rs and Variable Cost of Rs.20 per unit While Machine B has a Fixed Cost Rs and Variable Cost of Rs.25 per unit Find Cost Indifference Point

22 Cost Indifference point = Change in Total Fixed Cost /Change in Var. Cost per unit Change in Total Fixed Cost = Rs =Rs Change in Var. Cost per unit = Rs = Rs. 5 Cost Indifference Point = Rs /Rs units

23 We now have a better understanding of following aspects: 1 Cost classification 2 Profit Volume Ratio - PV Ratio 3 Break Even Point 4 Margin of Safety 5 Shut Down Point 6 Cost Indifference Point 7 Cash Break Even point 8 Break Even Charts & Angle of Incidence 9 Marginal Costing Vs. Absorption Costing
