Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 15/54
8.2 Operational cost computing
Operational unit cost determination

a. Materials and direct labour: based on bill of materials


(BOM) and involved workers.

Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 16/54
8.2 Operational cost computing
b. Overhead costs for each item: overhead costs based on all
kinds of item, then it should be allocated to each kind of
item. The consideration factors for Overhead costs
allocation as follows:
- Number of involed staffs,
- Involved labour cost,
- Involved working hours,
- Raw materials for each item,
- Number of machine hours....
Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 17/54
8.2 Operational cost computing
Example: A certain factory produces 2 types of item, the
allocation overhead cost is based on involved working hours.
This month, the O. cost is $ 20,000, the required working
hours for product A is 400 hours, and product B is 600 hours,
determine the allocation overhead cost for each kind of item:
Product A: (400/1,000) x $20,000 = $8,000
Product B: (600/1,000) x $20,000 = $12,000

Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 18/54
8.3 The simple method computing unit cost
1. The weighted method:

This method is useful for items in the same group, that are
compared amomg them to determine the weighted for each
item, based on experiences or benefit contribution.

Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 19/54
8.3 The simple method computing unit cost
1. The weighted method
Example: A certain factory produces 4 kinds of item: A, B,
C, and D. The total costs (materials, labour,…) are used for
all items. At the end of period, the report of total costs is
28,980,000 VNĐ. And total output volume as follows:
- item A: 2,000 units
- item B: 1,500 units
- item C: 1,000 units
- item D: 2,000 units

Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 20/54
8.3 The simple method computing unit cost
1. The weighted method
The confirmed weighted such as: (equivalent exchange):
item A = 1.0;
item B = 1.2;
item C = 1.5;
item D = 0.8;

Calculate the selling price for all items?

Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 21/54
8.3 The simple method computing unit cost
1. The weighted method
Solution: consider item A (weighted is 1.0) as a standard
item for equivalent exchanging all items B, C and D to
standard items.
- item A: 2,000 x 1.0 = 2,000 units
- item B: 1,500 x 1.2 = 1,800 units
- item C: 1,000 x 1.5 = 1,500 units
- item D: 2,000 x 0.8 = 1,600 units
Total 6,900 units
Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 22/54
8.3 The simple method computing unit cost
1. The weighted method
Selling price for unit of standard item (item A):
28,980,000 / 6,900 = 4,200 VNĐ.
item B: 4,200 x 1,2 = 5,040 VNĐ.
item C: 4,200 x 1,5 = 6,300 VNĐ.
item D: 4,200 x 0,8 = 3,360 VNĐ.

Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 23/54
8.3 The simple method computing unit cost
1. The weighted method
Total selling price as follow:
- item A: 4,200 x 2,000 = 8,400,000 VNĐ.
- item B: 5,040 x 1,500 = 7,560,000 VNĐ.
- item C: 6,300 x 1,000 = 6,300,000 VNĐ.
- item D: 3,360 x 2,000 = 6,720,000 VNĐ.
Total: 28,980,000 VNĐ.

Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 24/54
8.3 The simple method computing unit cost
2. The ratio method
- Necessary for items without the same group (can not
determime weighted),
- Based on the planning costs and the actual costs, to
determine the ratio to compute actual selling price for each
item.

Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 25/54
8.3 The simple method computing unit cost
2. The ratio method
Example: A certain factory produces 3 kinds of item A, B,
and C, planning selling price for each item as follow:
- item A: 2,250 VNĐ/unit
- item B: 4,500 VNĐ/unit
- item C: 1,500 VNĐ/unit

Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 26/54

In this certain period the total actual costs to produce all
items is 8,640,000 VNĐ and the total output as follow:
- item A: 1,200 units
- item B: 900 units
- item C: 1,500 units
Computing the actual selling price for each item.

Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 27/54
8.3 The simple method computing unit cost
2. The ratio method
Solution: Total planning prices:
Item A: 2,250 x 1,200 = 2,700,000 VNĐ.
Item B: 4,500 x 900 = 4,050,000 VNĐ.
Item C: 1,500 x 1,500 = 2,250,000 VNĐ.
Total: 9,000,000 VNĐ.
The ratio is determined such as: (actual vs planning)
8,640,000 / 9,000,000 x 100% = 96%

Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 28/54
8.3 The simple method computing unit cost
2. The ratio method
The actual selling price for each unit:
item A: 2,250 x 96% = 2,160 VNĐ.
item B: 4,500 x 96% = 4,320 VNĐ.
item C: 1,500 x 96% = 1,440 VNĐ.

Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 29/54
8.3 The simple method computing unit cost
2. The ratio method
Total selling price for each kind of item

Total: 8,640,000 VNĐ.

Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 30/54
8.4 Work-in-process cost computing
Total operational costs include WIP costs and item costs,
then it should be fairly allocated.

If the costs for WIP is reduced, then the selling prices for
items is increased, the benefit is low.

If the costs for WIP is increased, then the selling prices for
items is decreased, the benefit is high.

Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 31/54
8.4 Work-in-process cost computing
1. Materials cost consideration

Based on materials that used to making this WIP.

All other costs (labour cost, overhead cost) are allocated to


items.

confirm the percatage of completion (compare with final
items);

 Tranfer WIP to final items for allocating overhead and


labour costs. (but Materials is fullly allcated, 100% for WIP)

8.4 Work-in-process cost computing
Solution:

The actual selling price for each item:

4,000 VNĐ + 2,000 VNĐ + 1,000 VNĐ = 7,000 VNĐ.

Total value of items:

7,000 VNĐ x 1,200 units= 8,400,000 VNĐ.

Total value of WIP:

10,600,000 VNĐ – 8,400,000 VNĐ = 2,200,000 VNĐ.


Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 40/54
8.4 Work-in-process cost computing
Solution
Or computing based on WIP:
Materials cost: 4,000 VNĐ.
Labour cost: 2,000 x 50% = 1,000 VNĐ.
Overhead cost: 1,000 x 50% = 500 VNĐ.
Total: 5,500 VNĐ.
Total value of WIP: 5,500 VNĐx400units = 2,200,000 VNĐ

The actual price for each item:
4,300 VNĐ + 1,950 VNĐ + 900 VNĐ = 7,150 VNĐ.
Total value of item:
7,150 VNĐ x 1,500 units = 10,725,000 VNĐ.
Total value of WIP:

3. Actual processes consideration to compute WIP

Based on the actual cost for certain stage in production


process, we compute the value of WIP for each stage, and
the total costs of final items is the differnce between total
actual cost and total value of WIP.

A certain factory produces item A which includes 3 stages
process. And the estimated cost for each stage for each unit
as follow:
Stage 1:
Materials cost 3,750 VNĐ
Other costs 750 VNĐ
Total cost for stage 1 4,500 VNĐ

Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 50/54

8.4 Work-in-process cost computing
In this operational period, the total actual costs (materials,
labour and Overhead) is 7,935,000 VNĐ, and the
operational report as follow:
900 items, and:
100 WIP in stage 1
150 WIP in stage 2
200 WIP in stage 3
Computing the total value of WIP and items

Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 52/54
8.4 Work-in-process cost computing
100 WIP in stage 1 includes materials cost only
3,750 VNĐ x 100 units = 375,000 VNĐ.
150 WIP in stage 2 includes transfer total cost from stage 1:
4,500 VNĐ x 150 units = 675,000 VNĐ
200 WIP in stage 3 includes transfer total cost from stage 2:
5,400 VNĐ x 200 units = 1,080,000 VNĐ.

Lecterer: Đường Võ Hùng\Manufacturing system\Chapter 8: Productional costs management & control 53/54
8.4 Work-in-process cost computing
Total value of WIP:
375,000VNĐ+675,000VNĐ+1,080,000VNĐ = 2,130,000 VNĐ
Total value of items:
7,935,000 VNĐ– 2,130,000 VNĐ= 5,805,000 VNĐ.
The actual selling price for each item:
5,805,000 VNĐ : 900 units = 6,450 VNĐ.
