第一章课后习题一、思考题1.从管理会计定义的历史研究中你有哪些思考和想法？答：从管理会计定义的历史研究中我发现，管理会计的概念是随着历史的发展不断完善的，因为在历史进程中，人们会发现原有概念的不足，进而不断去修改完善，这才有了现在的管理会计。

这也启发了我们，要善于发现问题，去思考，解决问题。

2.经济理论对管理会计的产生和发展有哪些重要影响？你从中得到了什么启示？答：社会经济的发展和经济理论的丰富，使得管理会计的理论体系逐渐完善，内容更加丰富，逐步形成了预测、决策、预算、控制、考核、评价的管理会计体系。

由于市场竞争的日趋激烈，人们认识到对外部环境的准确决策就是不可能的，企业的计划必须以外部环境的变化为基础，更加留心市场变化的动态，更加密切关注竞争对手。

与此相适应，战略管理的理论有了长足的发展。

这启示了我们，要细心观察，因地制宜，适应变化莫测的外部环境，进行自身调整。

同时，实践出真知，只有经过了实践考验理论才是好理论。

3.科学管理理论对现代管理会计有哪些重要影响？这些影响在管理会计的不同发展阶段是如何表现的？答：现代管理科学为管理会计的形成奠定了一定的基础。

在以成本控制为基本特征的管理会计阶段，古典组织理论特别是科学管理理论的出现促使现代会计分化为财务会计和管理会计，现代会计的管理职能得以表现出来。

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目的，其主要内容包括标准成本、预算控制、差异分析。

在以预测、决策为基本特征的管理会计阶段，以标准成本制度为主要内容的管理控制继续得到了强化并有了新的发展。

责任会计将行为科学的理论与管理控制的理论结合起来，不仅进一步加强了对企业经营的全面控制（不仅仅是成本控制），而且将责任者的责、权、利结合起来，考核、评价责任者的工作业绩，从而极大地激发了经营者的积极性和主动性。

社会经济的发展和经济理论的丰富，使得管理会计的理论体系逐渐完善。

4.什么是价值链分析？价值链分析的目的是什么？答：价值链分析是指将一个企业的经营活动分解为若干战略性相关的价值活动，每一种价值活动都会对企业的相对成本产生影响，进而成为企业采取差异化战略的基础。

管理会计双语练习题一、True/False QuestionsFor each of the following, circle the T or the F to indicate whether the statement is true or false.1 Managerial accounting refers to the preparation and use of accounting information designed to meet the needs of decision makers inside the business organization.Product costs are selling expenses that appear on the income statement.Management accounting reports provide a means of monitoring , evaluating and rewardingperformance.Product 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. Manufacturing overhead is considered an indirect cost, since overhead costs generally cannot betraced conveniently and directly to specific units of product.Overhead application rates allow overhead to be assigned at the beginning of a period to help setprices.Pepsi Cola would most likely use a job order costing system.Activity-based costing tracks cost to the activities that consume resources.Activity based costing uses multiple activity bases to assign overhead costs to units of production.10 The two steps required in Activity Based Costing are 1) Identify separate activity cost pools and)allocate each cost pool to the product using an appropriate cost driver11 The new manufacturing environment is characterized by its shift toward labor intensive productionand declining manufacturing overhead costs.1A cost driver is an activity base that is highly correlated with manufacturing overhead costs.1In ABC, only one cost driver should be used in applying overhead.1As companies become more automated overhead costs decrease and direct labor costs increase.1An equivalent unit measures the percentage of acompleted units cost that is present in a partially finished unit.1Costs do not flow through a process cost system in the same sequence as actual products movethrough the assembly process.1Non-value added activities are those that do not add to a product's desirability.1Target costing centers on new product and service development as opposed to managing the valuechain for existing products.1In the target costing process, target price is computed by adding the desired profit margin to the targetproduct cost.20 Target cost equals target price plus profit margin.21 Variable costs which increase in total amount in direct proportion to an increase in output represent aconstant amount per unit of output.2Any business which operates at less than capacitywill have larger fixed costs than variable costs. With variable costs, the cost per unit varies with changes in volume.2The contribution margin is the difference between total revenue and fixed costs.2The volume of output which causes fixed costs to be equal in amount to variable costs is called thebreak-even point.2Any business which operates at less than capacity will have larger fixed costs than variable costs. Margin of safety is the dollar amount by which actual sales volume exceeds the break-even salesvolume.2Life cycle costing considers all potential resources used by the product over its entire life. 2Economies of scale can be achieved by using facilities more intensively.30 The break-even point is the level of activity at which operating income is equal to cost of goods sold.1 Contribution margin ratio is equal to contribution margin per unit divided by unit sales price.3Opportunity cost is the benefit that could havebeen obtained by pursuing an alternate course ofaction.3All incremental revenue or incremental costs are relevant.3Sunk costs are relevant to decisions about replacing plant assets.3In determining whether to scrap or to rebuild defective units of product, the cost already incurred inproducing the defective units is not relevant. 3In making a decision, management will look thoroughly at both relevant and irrelevant data.33.Responsibility margin is useful in evaluating the consequences of short-run marketing strategies, while contribution margin is more useful in evaluating long-term profitability.3The transfer price is the dollar amount used in recording sales to primary customers.3Under variable costing, fixed manufacturing costs are treated as period costs, rather than product costs.40 The transfer price is the dollar amount usedin recording sales to primary customers.41 Variable costing treats all fixed manufacturing costs as expenses of the current period. 4In full costing when production rises above the amount of sales, some of the fixed costs will remain in inventory.4Return on Investment tells us how much earnings can be expected for the average investeddollar.4Capital turnover can be improved by reducing invested capital while keeping sales constant.4The value chain consists of only those activities that increase the selling price of a product as it is distributed to a customer.4Residual income is calculated by subtracting the minimum acceptable return on the average investedcapital from the operating income.二、Multiple Choice QuestionsChoose the best answer for each of the following questions and insert the identifying letter in the space provided.1.Costs that are traceable to a particular unitand are inventoriable are calledA) Period costs B) Product costs C) Overhead costsD) Job costs2. .Determine the amount of manufacturing overhead given the following information:a.

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.

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.

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 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.

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.
