Standard Costs and the Balanced Scorecard Chapter 10 Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
10 -2 Standard Costs Standards are benchmarks or “norms” for measuring performance. Two types of standards are commonly used. Quantity standards specify how much of an input should be used to make a product or provide a service. Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin Cost (price) standards specify how much should be paid for each unit of the input. Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
10 -3 Standard Costs Amount Deviations from standards deemed significant are brought to the attention of management, a practice known as management by exception. Standard Direct Labor Direct Material Manufacturing Overhead Type of Product Cost Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
10 -4 Variance Analysis Cycle Identify questions Receive explanations Take corrective actions Conduct next period’s operations Analyze variances Prepare standard cost performance report Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin Exhibit 10 -1 Begin Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
10 -5 Setting Standard Costs Accountants, engineers, purchasing agents, and production managers combine efforts to set standards that encourage efficient future production. Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
10 -6 Setting Standard Costs Should we use ideal standards that require employees to work at 100 percent peak efficiency? Engineer Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin I recommend using practical standards that are currently attainable with reasonable and efficient effort. Managerial Accountant Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
10 -7 Learning Objective 1 Explain how direct materials standards and direct labor standards are set. Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
10 -8 Setting Direct Material Standards Price Standards Quantity Standards Final, delivered cost of materials, net of discounts. Summarized in a Bill of Materials. Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
10 -9 Setting Standards Six Sigma advocates have sought to eliminate all defects and waste, rather than continually build them into standards. As a result allowances for waste and spoilage that are built into standards should be reduced over time. Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
10 -10 Setting Direct Labor Standards Rate Standards Time Standards Often a single rate is used that reflects the mix of wages earned. Use time and motion studies for each labor operation. Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
10 -11 Setting Variable Overhead Standards Rate Standards Activity Standards The rate is the variable portion of the predetermined overhead rate. The activity is the base used to calculate the predetermined overhead. Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
Standard Cost Card – Variable Production Cost 10 -12 A standard cost card for one unit of product might look like this: Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
10 -13 Standards vs. Budgets Are standards the same as budgets? A budget is set for total costs. Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin A standard is a per unit cost. Standards are often used when preparing budgets. Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
10 -14 Price and Quantity Standards Price and quantity standards are determined separately for two reasons: The purchasing manager is responsible for raw material purchase prices and the production manager is responsible for the quantity of raw material used. The buying and using activities occur at different times. Raw material purchases may be held in inventory for a period of time before being used in production. Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.

Graw-Hill/Irwin Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
10 -29 Isolation of Material Variances I need the price variance sooner so that I can better identify purchasing problems. You accountants just don’t understand the problems that purchasing managers have. Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin I’ll start computing the price variance when material is purchased rather than when it’s used. Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
10 -30 Material Variances Hanson purchased and used 1, 700 pounds. How are the variances computed if the amount purchased differs from the amount used? Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin The price variance is computed on the entire quantity purchased. The quantity variance is computed only on the quantity used. Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
10 -31 Responsibility for Material Variances Materials Quantity Variance Production Manager Materials Price Variance Purchasing Manager The standard price is used to compute the quantity variance so that the production manager is not held responsible for the purchasing manager’s performance. Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
10 -32 Responsibility for Material Variances I am not responsible for this unfavorable material quantity variance. You purchased cheap material, so my people had to use more of it. Mc.

10 -72 Learning Objective 5 Understand how a balanced scorecard fits together and how it supports a company’s strategy. Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
10 -73 The Balanced Scorecard Management translates its strategy into performance measures that employees understand accept. Customers Financial Performance measures Internal business processes Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin Learning and growth Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
10 -74 The Balanced Scorecard: From Strategy to Performance Measures Exhibit 10 -11 Performance Measures Financial What are our financial goals? Customer What customers do we want to serve and how are we going to win and retain them? Internal Business Processes What internal business processes are critical to providing value to customers? Has our financial performance improved? Do customers recognize that we are delivering more value? Have we improved key business processes so that we can deliver more value to customers? Vision and Strategy Learning and Growth Are we maintaining our ability to change and improve? Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
The Balanced Scorecard: Non-financial Measures 10 -75 The balanced scorecard relies on non-financial measures in addition to financial measures for two reasons: Financial measures are lag indicators that summarize the results of past actions. Non-financial measures are leading indicators of future financial performance. Top managers are ordinarily responsible for financial performance measures – not lower level managers. Non-financial measures are more likely to be understood and controlled by lower level managers. Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
10 -76 The Balanced Scorecard for Individuals The entire organization should have an overall balanced scorecard. Each individual should have a personal balanced scorecard. A personal scorecard should contain measures that can be influenced by the individual being evaluated and that support the measures in the overall balanced scorecard. Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
10 -77 The Balanced Scorecard A balanced scorecard should have measures that are linked together on a cause-and-effect basis. If we improve one performance measure. . . Then Another desired performance measure will improve. The balanced scorecard lays out concrete actions to attain desired outcomes. Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.
The Balanced Scorecard and Compensation 10 -78 Incentive compensation should be linked to balanced scorecard performance measures. Mc. Graw-Hill/Irwin Copyright © 2008, The Mc. Graw-Hill Companies, Inc.

10 -96 Appendix 10 A Journal Entries to Record Variances We will use information from the Glacier Peak Outfitters example presented earlier in the chapter to illustrate journal entries for standard cost variances. Recall the following: Material AQ × AP = $1, 029 AQ × SP = $1, 050 SQ × SP = $1, 000 MPV = $21 F MQV = $50 U Labor AH × AR = $26, 250 AH × SR = $25, 000 SH × SR = $24, 000 LRV = $1, 250 U LEV = $1, 000 U Now, let’s prepare the entries to record the labor and material variances.

10 -100 Cost Flows in a Standard Cost System • Inventories are recorded at standard cost. • Variances are recorded as follows: w Favorable variances are credits, representing savings in production costs. w Unfavorable variances are debits, representing excess production costs. • Standard cost variances are usually closed to cost of goods sold. w Unfavorable variances increase cost of goods sold. w Favorable variances decrease cost of goods sold.
