1 STANDARD COSTING Samir K Mahajan

2 Standard Costing Historical costs: Historical costing or actual costing is a system where costs are ascertained after they are incurred. It is a post-mortem of the costs. When production is completed, i.e., products reached their final stage of finished status, costs are available and on that basis costs are ascertained. Historical costing does not help in finding mistakes and inefficiencies, which all lead to variation in profit. o Standard costs: Due to these disadvantages and limitations of historical costing, the standard costing technique was introduced. A standard cost is a predetermined/estimated calculation of how much costs should be under specific working conditions. It is a technique of cost control. Actual costs are compared with these standard costs. The object of standard cost is to ascertain the quotation and determination of price policy. The other names for standard costs are, budgeted costs, projected costs, model costs, measured costs, specification costs etc.

3 STANDARD COSTING PROCEDURE According to Wheldon "Standard costing is a method of ascertaining the costs whereby statistics are prepared to show (a) the standard cost (b) the actual cost (c) the difference between these costs, which is termed the variance". Thus the technique of standard cost study comprises of Ascertainment and use of standard costs. o o o Comparison of actual costs with standard costs (or budgeted cost) and measuring the variances. Controlling costs by the variance analysis. Reporting to management for taking proper action to maximize the efficiency Standard cost forms a basis for future planning, preparation of tenders, fixation of price etc. Otherwise, or in the absence of standard cost, decision will be based on actual cost.

4 VARIANCE ANALYSIS In cost accounting, variance means deviation of the actual cost from the standard cost or budgeted cost. In standard costing, standard costs are predetermined and refer to the amounts which ought to be incurred. These become the yardsticks against which actual costs can be compared. Computation and analysis of variances is the main objective of standard costing. After the standard costs have been fixed, the next stage in the operation of standard costing is to ascertain the actual cost of each element and compare them with the standard already set. It, thus, involves the measurement of the deviation of actual performance from the intended performance. The deviation of actual from the standard is called 'variance'. Profitability of a business depends both on costs and sales. The variance may classified into two categories: variances and sales variances. cost The difference between the actual cost (what is the cost ) and the standard cost (what should be the cost ) is known as the 'cost variance'. The sales variance is budgeted sales (or what should have ben the sales ) and actual sales (what have been the sales)

5 FAVOURABLE AND UNFAVOURABLE VARIANCES Variances may be favourable (positive or credit) or unfavourable (negative or adverse or debit) depending upon whether the actual resulting cost is less or more than the standard cost. Favourable Variance: When the actual cost incurred is less than the standard cost, the deviation is known as favourable variance. The effect of favourable variance increases the profit. It is also known as positive or credit variance and viewed only as savings. Unfavourable Variance: When the actual cost incurred is more than the standard cost, there is a variance, known as unfavourable or adverse variance. Unfavourable variance refers to deviation to the loss of the business. It is also known as negative or debit variance and viewed as additional costs or losses. This favourable variance is a sign o r efficiency of the organization and the unfavourable variance is a sign of inefficiency of the organisation.

6 CONTROLLABLE AND UNCONTROLLABLE VARIANCES Variances may be controllable or uncontrollable, depending upon the controllability of the factors causing variances. Controllable Variance: A variance is said to be controllable if a deviation caused by such factors which could be influenced by the executive action. For example excess usage of materials, excess time taken by a worker etc. is example for controllable variance. When compared to the standard cost it becomes controllable because the responsibility can be fixed on the in-charge or foreman of the department. Uncontrollable Variance: When variance is due to the factors beyond the control of the concerned person (or department), it is said to be uncontrollable. Cost variance is due to outside factors, for example, the wage rate increased on account of strike, Government restrictions, change in market price etc. No person or department can be held responsible for uncontrollable variances. Here revision of standards is required to remove such variances in future.

7 COMPUTATION OF COST VARIANCE VARIANCES Variances can be found out with respect to all the elements of cost, i.e. direct material, direct labour and overheads. In other words, the total cost variance is split into its component parts on the basis of elements, and each element is further subdivided to locate the responsibility of variance. The cost variances can be studied in the following manner. A) Direct Material Cost Variances B) Direct Labour Cost or wage Variances C) Overhead Variances (i) Variable and (ii) Fixed Direct expenses constitute an insignificant portion of total cost of the product. Hence direct expenses is generally not calculated.

8 DIRECT MATERIAL VARIANCES Direct Material Cost Variance is the difference between the standard cost of direct materials specified for the output achieved and the actual cost of direct materials used. The standard cost of materials is computed by multiplying the standard price with the standard quantity for actual output; and the actual cost is computed by multiplying the actual price with the actual quantity. Direct Material Cost Variance (DMCV) = Standard Cost of Materials Actual Cost of Material Used Or DMCV= (Standard Quantity of raw material for Actual Output X Standard Price) (Actual Quantity of raw material consumed X Actual Price) Illustration 1: The standard cost of material for manufacturing a unit of a particular product is estimated as follows: 16 kg. of raw Rs. 2 per kg. On completion of the unit, it was found that 20 kg. of raw material costing Rs per kg. has been consumed. Compute material variances. Solution: DMCV = (Standard Quantity for Actual Output X Standard Price) (Actual Quantity X Actual Price) = (16 X Rs. 2) (20 X Rs. 1.50) = Rs. 32 Rs. 30 = Rs. 2 (Favourable)

9 DIRECT MATERIAL VARIANCES contd. Direct Material Cost Variance may o Direct Material Price Variance o Direct Material Usage (Quantity) Variance Direct Material Price Variance: Material price variance is that portion of the direct material cost variance which is the difference between the standard price specified and the actual price paid for the direct materials used. The formula is: Material Price Variance (DMPV) = (Actual quantity consumed X Standard Price) - (Actual quantity consumed X Actual Price) Or MPV = Actual quantity consumed X(Standard Rate - Actual Rate) Reasons for price variance may be due to: o Buying efficiency or inefficiency o High or low costs of transportation and carriage goods o Changes in or laxity in perusing purchase policy for instance purchase of superior or inferior materials etc. o Fraud in purchase or loss of discounts o Incorrect setting of standards

10 DIRECT MATERIAL VARIANCES contd. Illustration 2: The standard cost of material for manufacturing a unit of a particular product is estimated as follo ws: 20 kg of raw Rs. 2 per kg. On completion of the unit, it was found that 25 kg. of raw material costing Rs. 3 per kg. has been consumed. Solution: DMPV = Actual quantity consumed (Standard Rate - Actual Rate) = 25 (Rs. 2 - Rs. 3) = Rs. 25 (Adverse)

11 DIRECT MATERIAL VARIANCES contd. Direct Material Usage ( or Quantity) Variance: It is the deviation caused by the standards due to the difference in quantity used. It is calculated by multiplying the difference between the standard quantity specified and the actual quantity used by the standard price. Direct Material Usage Variance (DMUV) = Standard Rate (Standard Quantity to be consumed consumed) - Actual Quantity Reasons for direct material usage variances: o Inefficiency, lack of skill or faulty workmanship resulting in more consumption of raw materials o Lack of proper maintenance of plant and equipment and frequent break down during production process leading to wastage of materials o Non-consideration of product design and method of processing etc while fixing standards o Incorrect using processing of materials resulting in wastages o Improper inspection of and supervision of workmen resulting in careless handling and processing o Too strict supervisions or inspection resulting excessive rejection of materials

12 DIRECT MATERIAL VARIANCES contd. Illustration3: From the following data, you are required to material usage variance. Standard - 20 kg. at Rs per kg. Actual - 25 kg. at Rs. 6 per kg. Solution: MUV = Standard Rate (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity) = Rs (20-25) = Rs (Adverse)

13 Illustration 4 : It is estimated that a product requires 50 units of material at the rate of Rs. 3 per unit. The actual consumption of material for manufacturing the same product came to 60 units at the rate of Rs. 2.9 per unit. Calculate 1. Material cost variance 2. Material price variance 3. Material usage variance Solution: 1. Material cost variance = Std cost Actual cost Std cost = Std qty x Std price per unit = 50 x 3 = 150 Actual cost = Actual qty x Actual price per unit = 60 x 2.90 =174 DIRECT MATERIAL VARIANCES contd. Material Cost Variance = = 24 (unfavourable) 2. Material Price Variance = Actual qty x (Std price actual price) 60 x (3 2.90) = 6 favourable 3. Material usage variance = Std price x (Std qty Actual qty) 3x (50-60 ) = Rs. 30 unfavourable

14 DIRECT LABOUR VARIANCE OR DIRECT WAGE VARIANCE DIRECT LABOUR COST VARIANCE OR LABOUR WAGE VARIANCE (LCV OR LWV) represents the difference between the standard labour cost and the actual labour costs for actual output. That is, it is the difference between standard direct wages specified for the activity achieved and the actual direct wages paid. Labour costs may be considered wages including pay, allowances and other expenses on labour. If the standard cost is higher, the variation is favourable and vice versa. This variance can be calculated with the help of the following formulae: Direct Labour Cost Variance (DLCV) = Standard Cost of Labour - Actual Cost of Labour DLCV = (Standard Hour X Standard Rate) - (Actual Hour X Actual Rate) Direct labour cost variance arises on account variance in either rates of wags or time. It may further analysed as variance and ii. Time or efficiency variance. Thus Direct labour cost variance may be further subdivided into Direct Labour Rate Variance (DLRV) Direct labour Efficiency Variance (DLEV). i. rate

15 DIRECT LABOUR VARIANCE OR DIRECT WAGE VARIANCE Direct Labour (or Wage) Rate Variance (L or WRV): This variance is the direct result of the wages paid at a rate different from the standard rate. That is, it is the difference between the standard rate of pay specified and the actual rate paid. If the standard rate is higher then the variance is favourable and vice versa. Direct Labour Rate Variance = Actual Hour X (Standard Rate Actual Rate) Reasons for direct labour rate variance: o Deployment of more efficient and skilled workers giving rise to higher payment o Higher payment due to shortage of availability of labour o Lesser payment due to abundant availability of labour or high consumption among them for employment o Employment of unskilled labourers causing lower actual rates of pay o Extra shift allowance to workers or overtime allowances leading to high wages o Changes in wage rate higher wage rates during seasonal or emergency operations

16 DIRECT LABOUR VARIANCE OR Direct WAGE VARIANCE contd. Direct Labour Efficiency Variance (DLEV): Direct Labour Efficiency Variance (DLEV): 'the difference between the standard hours specified for the actual production achieved and the hours actually worked, valued at the standard labour rate.' When the workers finish the specific job in less than the standard time, the variance is favourable. It is important to note that the actual time should be taken after deducting abnormal idle time if any. Direct Labour Efficiency Variance (DLEV) = Standard Rate X (Standard Hour - Actual Hour) Reasons for labour efficiency variance o Use of incorrect grade of labour o Insufficient training o Bad supervision o Incorrect instructions o Bad working conditions o Worker s dissatisfaction o Defective equipment and machinery o Wrong item of equipments o Excessive labour turn over, and o Fixation of incorrect standards

17 DIRECT LABOUR VARIANCE OR Direct WAGE VARIANCE contd. Illustration 5: Calculate labour cost variance from the following data: Standard hours: 40 Rate : Rs. 3 per hour Actual hours : 60 Rate : Rs. 4 per hour Solution: Labour cost Variance = Standard cost of labour Actual cost of labour = (40x3) (60x4) = =Rs. 120 Adverse Illustration 6: The standard and actual figures of a firm are as under Standard time for the job : 1000 hrs Standard rate per hour : Re.0.50 Actual time taken : 900 hours Actual wages paid : Rs.360 Compute labour variances. Solution: Labour Cost Variance:= Standard cost of labour Actual cost of labour = (1000x0.50) (900 x 0.40) = = Rs. 140 Favourable Labour Mix Variance = Actual time x (Standard rate Actual rate) = 900x ( ) Favourable Labour efficiency Variance = Standard rate x (Standard time for actual output Actual time) =0.50 x ( ) = Rs. 50 Favourable

18 DIRECT LABOUR VARIANCE OR Direct WAGE VARIANCE contd. Illustration 7: Standard labour hours and rate of production of Article A are given below: Skilled Worker- 5 Rs per hour Total Rs Unskilled Worker- 8 Rs..50 per hour Total Rs Semi-skilled Worker- 4 Rs..75 per hour Total Rs Grand Total Rs Actual Data are as follows: Article produced units Skilled Worker hours, Rate Rs per hour Total Rs Unskilled Worker hours, Rate Rs per hour Total Rs Semi-skilled Worker hours, Rate Rs per hour Total Rs Grand Total Rs Calculate a) Labour Cost Variance b) Labour Rate Variance c) Labour efficiency Variance

19 DIRECT LABOUR VARIANCE OR Direct WAGE VARIANCE contd. Solution: Rate) a) Labour Cost Variance (LCV) = (Standard Hour for Actual Production X Standard Rate) (Actual Hour X Actual Computation of Standard Hour for Actual Production: Skilled Worker X 5 = 5000 Hours Unskilled Worker X 8 = 8000 Hours Semi-skilled Worker X 4 = 4000 Hours Labour Cost Variance (LCV): Skilled Worker = (5000 X Rs. 1.50) - (4500 X Rs. 2) = Rs (A) Unskilled Worker = (8000 X Rs. 0.50) - (10000 X Rs. 0.45) = Rs. 500 (A) Semi-skilled Worker = (4000 X Rs. 0.75) - (4200 X Rs. 0.75) = Rs. 150 (A) Total Labour Cost Variance = Rs (A)

20 b) Labour Rate Variance (LRV) = Actual Hour x (Std. Rate Actual Rate) Skilled Worker = 4500 (1.50-2) = Rs (Adverse) Unskilled Worker = 4200 ( ) = Nil Semi-skilled Worker = 1000 ( ) = Rs. 500 (Favourable) DIRECT LABOUR VARIANCE OR Direct WAGE VARIANCE contd. Total Labour Rate Variance = Skilled Worker + Unskilled Worker + Semi-skilled worker =Rs (Adverse) + Nil+ Rs. 500 (Favourable) = Rs (A) c) Labour Efficiency Variance (LEV) = Standard Rate X (Standard Hour for Actual Production Actual Hour for Actual production ) Skilled Worker = 1.50 X( ) = Rs. 750 (A) Unskilled Worker = 0.50 X( ) = Rs.400 (A) Semi-skilled Worker = 0.75 X( ) = Rs. 300 (A) Total Labour Efficiency Variance = Rs (A)

21 OVERHEAD VARIANCES Overhead variance is the difference between the standard cost of overhead absorbed in the actual output achieved and the actual overhead cost. The term overhead includes indirect material, indirect labour and indirect expenses and the variances relate of factory, office and selling and distribution overheads. Overhead cost variance is given by the following formula: Overhead cost variance= Recovered Overheads Actual overheads Some overhead calculation is used as below: o Standard Overhead Rate per Unit = Budgeted Overheads Budgeted Output o Standard Overhead Rate per Hour = Budgeted Overheads Budgeted Hours o Standard Hours for actual Output = (Budgeted hours Budgeted output) X Actual Output o Standard Output for actual Time = (Budgeted Output Budgeted Hours) X Actual Hours o Recovered or absorbed overhead = Standard Rate per Unit X Actual Output

22 OVERHEAD VARIANCES contd. Overhead variances are divided into two broad categories i) Variable Overhead Cost variances and ii) Fixed Overhead Cost variances. Variable Overhead Variance: Variable cost varies in proportion to the level of output, where the cost is fixed per unit. As such the standard cost per unit of these overheads remains the same irrespective of the level of output attained. As the volume does not affect the variable cost per unit or per hour, the only factor leading to difference is price. Variable Overhead Cost Variance (VOCV): Variable Overhead Cost Variance (VOCV): is the difference between standard overheads for actual output i.e. Recovered Overhead and actual variable overheads. VOCV = Variable Recovered Overhead Actual Variable Overhead Where Variable Recovered Overhead = ( Standard Variable Overhead Variable Standard Output) X Variable Actual Output

23 OVERHEAD VARIANCES contd. Fixed Overhead Variance: Fixed overhead variance depends on a) fixed expenses incurred and b) the volume of production obtained. The volume variance includes three variances namely i) Efficiency ii) Calendar and iii) Capacity. Fixed Overhead Cost Variance (FOCV):It is the difference between standard overheads for actual output i.e. recovered overhead and actual fixed overheads. FOCV = Fixed Recovered Overhead - Actual Fixed Overhead Where Fixed Recovered Overhead = Standard or Budgeted overhead rate per unit X Fixed Actual Output = (Fixed Standard Output Standard Fixed Overhead) X Fixed Actual Output Fixed overhead variance may be classified as shown in the following chart: o Fixed overhead expenditure variance o Fixed Overhead volume variance

24 OVERHEAD VARIANCES contd. o Fixed overhead expenditure variance: It arises due to the difference between budgeted fixed overheads and actual fixed overheads incurred. o Fixed Overhead Expenditure Variance ( FOEXPV) = Budgeted Fixed overheads Actual fixed overheads o Fixed Overhead volume variance: This arises on account of difference between standard and actual output resulting in under or over-recovery of fixed overheads. Fixed Overhead volume variance (FOVV) = Recovered Fixed Overheads Budgeted Fixed overheads

25 OVERHEAD VARIANCES contd. Illustration: RVS Ltd. has furnished you the following information for the month of August Budget or Standard Actual Output (Units) Hours Fixed Overhead (Rs.) Variable Overhead (Rs.) Working days Calculate the Variances Solution: Standard Hour per Unit = Budgeted Hours Budgeted Units = = 1 hour Total standard overhead rate per hour = Budgeted Overheads Budgeted Hours = = Rs per hour Standard fixed overhead rate per hour = Budgeted fixed overhead Budgeted Hours = = Rs Standard Variable Overhead Rate per hour = Budgeted Variable Overheads Budgeted Hours = = Rs.2

26 OVERHEAD VARIANCES contd. Overhead Cost Variance = Recovered Overheads - Actual Overheads Total Recovered Overheads = Standard Rate per Unit X Actual Output = ( Budgeted overhead budgeted output )X Actual Output = ( ) X 325,00 = 3.5 X Rs Total Overhead Cost Variance = total overhead recovered actual overheads = Rs Rs = Rs (Adverse) Recovered Variable overheads = Variable Standard Rate per Unit X Actual Output =? Recovered Fixed overheads = Fixed Standard Rate per Unit X Actual Output =? Variable Overhead Cost Variance = Rs Rs = Rs (A) = how? Fixed Overhead Cost Variance = Rs Rs = Rs (A) = how?

27 OVERHEAD VARIANCES contd. Calculate different overheads variances from the following standard and actual data Standard Overheads Rate per unit Variable Rs Fixed (Rs ) Rs Rs Actual Data during the period: Output 2400 units Overhead Variable Rs Fixed Rs Rs 34000
