Controlling Accounting Controlling Accounting • Most companies divide their accounting function into

internal and external. Internal accounting is often called controlling accounting.

• The objective of controlling accounting is to show how the system adds value by structuring information in a certain way.

• Controlling (also known as managerial) accounting is the process of identifying, measuring, analyzing, and communicating information in pursuit of an organizations goals.

44

Controlling (CO)Controlling (CO)• Managerial accounting (termed

controlling) is designed to collect the transactional data that provides the foundation for preparing internal reports that support decision-making within the enterprise.

• These reports are exclusively for use within the enterprise; they include:1) Cost center performance2) Profit center performance3) Budgets analyses

55

Fundamentals of Cost ManagementFundamentals of Cost Management

• Every cost is linked to an expense booked in the financial accounting system and to a cost element in the managerial accounting system.

• Cost elements are in turn assigned to cost objects.

• The internal (cost management) accounting system and the external (financial) accounting system and are fully integrated.

Fundamentals of Cost ManagementFundamentals of Cost Management• A cost object is a classification of costs that is desired by

the user. It could be a cost center (a department where the cost is incurred), a production order (costs to produce unit 10004232), or a special project (installation of an ERP system), etc.

• A cost object is simply a way to aggregate costs for some decision purpose at a later time. For instance, sales/marketing, finance/accounting, and general administration could be three cost centers (objects) in the headquarters under the direction of three different VPs (not necessary EVPs).

• A cost element can be assigned to multiple cost objects. For example, travel as a cost element may appear in all cost centers.

Controlling Accounting TerminologyControlling Accounting Terminology

Controlling Area1. A self-contained, organizational element serves to broadly

define a managerial accounting and reporting system for which the management of revenues and expenses can be performed

2. A controlling area is the highest level organizational entity within the Control module in which cost and profit analysis takes place (except for PA analysis which takes place within an operating concern)

3. A controlling area may include one or more company codes; therefore, an enterprise can perform management accounting analyses and reports across several companies

4. Each company code can be assigned to one and only one controlling area

5. A way to identify and track where revenues and costs are incurred for evaluation purposes

99

Controlling Accounting TerminologyControlling Accounting Terminology

Controlling Area (- continue)6. A controlling area is also broken down into

two different “standard” hierarchical structures: 1) standard cost center hierarchy; and 2) standard profit center hierarchy

7. Internal financial (controlling) reporting and analysis focuses on measuring the cost or profit results of components of a controlling area, such as cost centers or profit centers.

Note:• External reporting does not take place for a controlling

area. Neither income statements nor balance sheets are created for an entire controlling area.

1. Cost Element Accounting1. Cost Element Accounting1.1 Cost Elements Cost and revenue accounts within a chart of

accounts that are involved in cost accounting are referred to as “elements,” which are further divided into • primary cost elements, • primary revenue elements, and • secondary cost elements (there are no secondary

revenue elements).

1212

Cost Element Accounting Cost Element Accounting Cost Elements (- continued)• Primary cost and revenue elements are created in the

FI module and are used both in the FI and CO modules to account for cost and revenue flows with parties external to the organization.

• Both flows are first recorded in FI and then transferred automatically to a cost or revenue object within the CO module (e.g., cost center, internal order, profitability segment, etc.).

• Secondary cost elements are created in the CO module and are used exclusively within the CO to account for internal cost flows among cost objects within a controlling area (e.g., cost allocations among cost centers).

1313

2. Cost Center Accounting (CCA)2. Cost Center Accounting (CCA)1) Created for internal controlling purposes and

provides a tool that can collect costs.

2) Cost center accounting (CCA) module within the CO provides the means for assigning planned costs and actual costs incurred to areas of cost responsibility within an organization. For example, if a manager wants to know how much it costs to run his

department for the month of April, this module can be used to provide the answer.

3) CCA module contains a variety of methods for allocating costs among cost centers and from cost centers to other cost objects (e.g., internal orders, production orders, profitability segments, etc.).

2. 2. Cost Center Accounting Cost Center Accounting 2.1 Cost Centers2.1 Cost Centers• Units that are distinguished, for example, by area

of responsibility, location, or type of activity• Copy center• Security department• Maintenance department

• Can be permanent or temporary (e.g., internal order)

• Operates as a collector and assignor of responsibility for expenditures

• A way to identify and track where costs are incurred for evaluation purposes

• Responsible for cost containment, not responsible for revenue generation• One or more value-added activities are performed within each cost

center

1515

Cost Center (- continued)Cost Center (- continued)• A cost center is the basic organizational

responsibility component of a controlling area.• A controlling area is broken down into cost

centers, which are organized in a “standard cost center hierarchy.” There is one and only one standard cost center hierarchy for a controlling area.

• Cost centers may also be linked to a specific business area, company code, and profit center (i.e., business areas, company codes, profit centers and controlling areas may all be viewed as collections of cost centers).

1616

2.Cost Center Accounting 2.Cost Center Accounting 2.2 Cost Drivers • A cost driver is a factor, such as machine hours, beds

occupied, computer usage time, flight hours, or any other factor that causes overhead costs.

• Most companies use direct labor-hours or direct labor cost as the allocation base for manufacturing overhead,

• However, major shifts are being made in the way cost is structured. With the increased usage of sophisticated and complex equipment in manufacturing, there is less direct labor relative to overhead as a component of product costs.

• Typical cost driver types: activity types and statistical key figures.

1717

2. Cost Center Accounting 2. Cost Center Accounting

2.3 Activity• Any event, action, or transaction that causes a

cost to be incurred in the production of a product or the providing of a service.

1818

2. Cost Center Accounting 2. Cost Center Accounting 2.4 Activity types • Activity types are production or service activities

rendered to a work center or cost center that are used to allocate costs.

• Activity types generally include different types of labor (e.g., setup, production labor, machine labor, etc.) that are performed by personnel within a work center or cost center.

• The measure of the activity type quantity (e.g., hours worked), which is essentially a cost driver measure, may be used to allocate all or a portion of the costs of a cost center to other cost objects (e.g., other cost centers, production orders, profitability segments, etc.).

1919


Activity types (-continued)• The cost center in which the activity is performed is

referred to as the “sender,” and the cost objects receiving the allocated costs are called “receivers.”

• The allocation is based on an “activity (transfer) price” that is developed for the activity type. The activity price may be set manually by management, or it may be calculated automatically using an iterative routine that explicitly takes into account “cross allocations” (i.e., allocations back and forth among two or more cost centers).

2020

2. Cost Center Accounting 2. Cost Center Accounting 2.5 Product Costing (PC) • The product costing (PC) is a CO module function which

provides the means for developing different types of cost estimates for a particular product or subassembly, such as standard cost, future cost, tax cost, or commercial cost estimate. These estimates may be used for a variety of purposes, including product pricing, production planning and control, inventory valuation, and income measurement (cost of goods sold).

• Product cost is developed after the material is defined, a bill of materials is created, and a routing is determined. This product cost reflects the cost structure of the product on a standard costing basis prior to manufacturing. The product cost structure is normally defined for one unit and can be broken out by individual material parts and further defined as variable or fixed.

2121


• Value-added activity • Any activity that increases the worth of a product or

service.

• Non-value-added-activity • Any activity that adds cost to, or increases the time

spent on, a product or service without increasing its market value.

• Product-level activities • Activities that are performed for (and are identifiable

with) an entire product (line).

2222

2. Cost Center Accounting 2. Cost Center Accounting 2.6 Activity Based Costing (ABC) • The activity based costing (ABC) module within the CO

provides the means for assigning planned costs and actual costs incurred at the cost center level to business processes that cut across areas of responsibility within an organization. The costs assigned to a business process can in turn be allocated to those cost objects (products, services, customers, etc.) that utilize the business process.

• It is generally used as a tool for understanding of product and customer cost and profitability. ABC has predominantly been used to support strategic decisions such as pricing, outsourcing and identification and measurement of process improvement initiatives.

2323

2. Cost Center Accounting 2. Cost Center Accounting 2.7 Work Center Work centers are organizational units that perform operation

functions within a plant. • A work center might include a production line, quality

checkpoint, packaging line, and warehouse. For each operation created in a routing, a work center must be identified. All manufacturing processes are routed through work centers.

• Each work center is connected to only one cost center as defined in Work Center Master Records. This way allows costing, scheduling, and capacity planning to be done for each functional production area individually. The amount of work that can take place at a work center is represented as its capacity. When a capacity is used, the operations are evaluated by charge rates.

2424

Work Center - continuedWork Center - continued• Generally, a work center is combination of the following

resources: • Machinery, Equipment, and Vehicles • Employees • Production Lines • Assembly Lines

• One work center can perform up to six different production activities within different charge rates. Examples of activity types are

• labor, • machine, • materials, • setup costs, • quality costs, and • resource consumption.

2525

3. Internal Order3. Internal Order• A method of internal cost allocation by which valuated

activities (allocation bases) from cost centers can be assigned to cost receivers in accordance with the cause of the cost.

• The activities or allocation bases represent the output of a cost center (such as production hours or machine hours).

• In internal activity allocation, the activity produced by the cost center is multiplied by the activity price. The result is the cost to be allocated.

• Sender cost center is credited with this amount and the receiver object is debited.

• Internal orders support task-oriented planning, monitoring, and allocation of costs.

2626

Internal Order (- contimued)Internal Order (- contimued)• Temporary cost center responsible for

cost containment, not responsible for revenue generation

• It is used to plan, collect, and monitor the costs associated with a distinct short-term event, activity, or project• Company picnic• Trade show• Recruiting campaign

2727

4. Profit Center Accounting 4. Profit Center Accounting (PCA)(PCA)

Profit center accounting is used to analyze income and expenditure for profit centers that represent an independent subunit within an organization.

2828

4. Profit Center Accounting 4. Profit Center Accounting

4.1 Profit Center • Profit centers are similar to business areas, in the sense

that they are set up for internal reporting purposes. Profit centers, however, are formally defined as components of a controlling area, not as components of one or more company codes.

• Income statements may be created for profit centers, and selected assets may also be reported for profit centers, but not complete balance sheets (which can be done for business areas).

• Profit centers are linked to cost centers with one-to-one or one-to-many relationship.

2929

Profit Center (- continued)Profit Center (- continued)• Responsible for revenue generation and

cost containment

• Evaluated on profit or return on investment

• Enterprises are commonly divided into profit centers based on• Region• Function• Product

3030

Profit Center (- continued) Profit Center (- continued) • Profit centers generally involve subdivisions of

companies that are set up for internal planning and control purposes.

• Taken together, all profit centers within a controlling area constitute the “standard profit center hierarchy.” • (There is one and only one standard profit center

hierarchy for a controlling area.)

3131

4. Profit Center Accounting4. Profit Center Accounting

4.2 Profitability Analysis (PA) • The profitability analysis (PA) module within CO

provides the means for assigning planned and actual revenues and costs to a variety of profitability segments, including customers, sales territories, sales employee groups, product groups, etc.

• This provides great flexibility in defining, both the market characteristics that are of interest to managers, and the related performance measures (e.g., gross margin, contribution margin, segment margin) that managers use to evaluate market segments.

3232

Estimate Cost Estimate Cost • For management to make the best decisions possible,

managers must be able to estimate costs as close to actual costs as possible. When considering product costs, there are several costs that can be traced directly to the product. These will give an estimate that is near the actual costs of making the product.

• Examples of these costs are direct material and direct labor. By using material requisition forms and payroll time sheets, these costs can easily be traced to a product.

• The costs that are harder to trace are called overhead costs. They are indirect costs because they cannot be specifically traced to a product. Estimates must be used to allocate overhead to products and services.

3333

Estimate Cost Estimate Cost • The most difficult part of estimating product costs is

calculating the amount of overhead that must be allocated to each product, service, or job. Many times a predetermined overhead rate is used.

• A predetermined overhead rate refers to a single rate that is used to apply overhead to all products produced. When using job order costing systems, direct labor cost is generally the base used to apply overhead to each job. In process costing, machine hours would be an example of an activity base that is used to allocate overhead.

• In the following example, 150 units of a motorcycle were produced. Of the finished units, 30 have been sold thus far. This is seen in the figures below.

Debit Credit 150

Work is completed 150 Ending 0

Debit Credit 0

Work is completed 150Units sold 30 Ending 120

When the units are completed, work in progress must be credited for the 150 units, and the finished goods inventory must be debited the same.

Cost Accounting Cost Accounting TerminologyTerminology

• When looking at a financial point of view, there are actual costs of $233,211.00, $336.11, and $156.52. The standard cost of creating the motorcycles is $240,000. This can be found by taking the price of $1600 per motorcycle and multiplying it by the 150 units. When the 30 units are sold, they have a cost of $48,000, and there is $192,000 remaining in the finished goods inventory. This can be seen in the figures below.

Debit Credit $233,211.00 $240,000.00

336.16 156.52

Total Cost $233,703.68 $240,000.00Production variance -$6,296.32

Debit Credit $0 Work is completed Units sold $48,000 Ending $48,000

Because of the difference between the standard cost and the actual cost, there is a Production variance of $6,296.32. When broken down by units, this variance is $41.98/pc.

Was the production of these motorcycles efficient?

Cost Accounting AllocationCost Accounting Allocation

Posting Types of Cost Allocation • In this unit, Costs will be allocated to particular Cost

Centers. • There are three different types of cost allocation:

• Direct Reposting, • Percentage Allocation, and • Statistical Key Figures.

• In Direct Reposting, an amount of money is allocated directly to a specific cost center. For example, $200 is allocated directly to the Production cost center.

7171


Posting Types of Cost Allocation (- continued)

• In Percentage Allocation, the amount that is to be allocated is split up among multiple cost centers based on a predetermined percentage. For instance, assume that there are two services, and 70% of the cost is to be assigned to one service, while 30% is assigned to the other. In addition, the total costs to be allocated equal $2,500. Because the first service is to be allocated 70% of the cost, it will be allocated $1750. Likewise, the second service which is to be allocated 30% of the cost will be allocated for the remaining $750.

.

7272


Posting Types of Cost Allocation (- continued)

• Statistical Key Figures (SKFs) are used in the R/3 system to allocate costs from a service department to a user department at the closing of a period. These cost drivers, which are often referred to as tracing factors, are used in allocation methods that do not involve the explicit development of activity (transfer) prices. Nevertheless, the allocation approach is quite similar. A lump sum amount associated with the service department is allocated to a user department in proportion to the relative amounts of the SKF associated with each receiver.
