UNIT-1: MARGINAL COSTING-BASICS
CONCEPT-1: BASICS OF MARGINAL COSTING
✓ All short-term decisions are based on the concept of Marginal Cost and Marginal
Revenue.
✓ DECISION MAKING FRAMEWORK:
SCENARIO DECISION
If MR > MC
If MR < MC
WHAT IS MARGINAL COST
✓ It is the change in cost due to change in the level of output.
✓ In other words, it is the extra cost to manufacture one extra unit of output.
✓ Example:
Units Cost
100 units 7000
101 units 7050
Marginal Cost

BASIC ASSUMPTIONS OF MARGINAL COSTING
UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED,
1. Selling price per unit is constant
2. Variable Cost per unit is constant
3. Total Fixed Cost is constant
CONCEPT-2: BASIC FORMULAS
(1) CONTRIBUTION
✓ It is the amount which contributes towards recovery of fixed cost and profit.
✓ It is excess of Sales over Variable Cost.
Example:
SP: ₹1000/unit; VC: ₹600/unit; FC = ₹10,000
Particulars 0 units 1 unit 2 units 10 units 25 units

(2) VARIABLE COST RATIO (VCR) & PROFIT VOLUME RATIO (PVR)
✓ It is compared as a percent of sales.
✓ Variable cost Ratio: It is proportion of variable cost to sales.
✓ Profit Volume Ratio: It is proportion of contribution to sales.
✓ PVR and VCR are both complimentary.

(3) BREAK EVEN POINT (BEP)
✓ It is a situation of no profit-no loss. In other words, entire fixed cost is recovered
at BEP. (i.e. it is a situation wherein total cost = total sales)
✓ At BEP,
❖ Profit/ Loss = Zero
❖ Total Sales = Total Cost
❖ Contribution = Fixed Cost

Note: If question does not specify whether BEP in terms of units or BEP (in Sales),
calculate both.
(1) MARGIN OF SAFETY
Total Sale Value = ₹1 Lakh
CA Tabish Hassan (AIR-10) [Link]
MAJAA IS COMING!!! Decision Making
✓ Margin of Safety Sale: It is the sale over BEP sale.
✓ We start earning profit from MOS sales. (Till BEP sales, we were recovering fixed
cost.)
BEP Sale Ratio: It is proportion of BEP sale to total sales.
MOS Sale Ratio: It is proportion of MOS sale to total sales.
Both are complimentary.
Example:
SP = ₹700; VC = ₹455; FC = ₹36750; Units sold: 200 units; Calculate BEP Sales,
MOS Sales, Profit.

Notes:
Variant 1: Bifurcation of total sales as BEP Sale and MOS Sales
Variant 2: When question asks us to calculate sales to earn dezired profit
1. VCR and PVR are complimentary. If one is known, other can be calculated.
2. AT BEP, profit/Loss is zero. Therefore, Contribution = Fixed Cost.
3. At MOS, additional Fixed Cost is Zero. Contribution = Profit.
4. Begin with Dezired profit and add fixed cost to get dezired contribution. If we
divide dezired contribution with PV ratio, we get dezired sales.
5. BEP Sale Ratio & MOS Sale Ratio are complimentary. If one is known, other can be
calculated.

UNIT-2: RELEVANT COSTING
CONCEPT-1: BASICS OF RELEVANT COSTING
WHAT IS RELEVANT COST?
It is the cost which is relevant to take any decision (i.e. it is the cost which is
incurred only when we make a specific decision).
TWO CONDITIONS FOR A COST TO BE A RELEVANT COST
❖ It should be a future cost
❖ It should be differential cost (i.e. cost is different for different alternatives)
DIFFERENT COSTS & THEIR TREATMENT
1. HISTORIC COST/ SUNK COST/ COMMITTED COST:
• A cost which is already incurred in the past and doesn’t affect the future
decisions.
• It is IRRELEVANT for decision making (i.e. already incurred in past).
• It is irrelevant irrespective of whether it is actually paid (or) still payable.
• Example:
o Research and Development Cost
o Book Value of Assets

• Existing overheads • Incremental
• Unavoidable overhead

3. OPPORTUNITY COST:
❖ It is the maximum contribution foregone by rejecting other alternatives.
❖ It is just a NOTIONAL COST. It doesn’t involve cash payment.
❖ Opportunity cost is RELEVANT for all business decisions.

4. OUT OF POCKET COST/ ADDITIONAL COST:
❖ It is the additional cost incurred for taking a specific business decision.
❖ It is RELEVANT for decision making.
CONCEPT-2: RELEVANT COST FOR MATERIAL, LABOUR, OVERHEADS & MACHINE
RELEVANT COST OF MATERIAL
MATERIAL
NOT IN STOCK IN STOCK
CA Tabish Hassan (AIR-10) [Link]
MAJAA IS COMING!!! Decision Making
Notes:
1. Purchase Price and Replacement Cost are one and the same.
2. Book Value of Material (i.e. historic cost of purchase) is SUNK COST and hence
IRRELEVANT for decision making.
3. FOR NON-MOVING MATERIAL IN STOCK
a. If data regarding alternate use is not available, consider only REALIZABLE
VALUE.
b. If cost is incurred to dispose the non-moving material, then ‘Cost of Disposal’
is REDUCED to calculate the relevant cost.
Example: Highly toxic chemical in stock which is non-moving. Cost of disposal
is ₹400. So, Relevant Cost =

SPECIAL POINTERS [BLAST FROM THE PAST]
MATERIAL [Various Interpretations]
SITUATION CORRECT INTERPRETATION
Material Y is ❖ It means that material is already ordered
on order at (but it has not yet reached us)
Contract ❖ Once Raw Material is ordered, it is as good
Price as Material is in Stock (i.e., already
purchased).
❖ Hence, Purchase Cost (i.e. Book Value) is
IRRELEVANT.
Material Z is to be ❖ Material is not yet ordered.
ordered ❖ Hence, Purchase Price will be RELEVANT.
LABOUR [IF LABOUR IS ABOUT TO RETIRE, BUT HELD FOR NEW ORDER]
Example:
Foreman is due to retire immediately at an Annual pension of ₹60,000. However, due to
an emergency special order, he is asked to stay for a further year & defer his pension
for 1 year in return for his Annual Salary of ₹1.5L. Calculate Relevant Cost.

OVERHEADS [Avoidable Overheads is always RELEVANT]
Example:
General OH is ₹ 12 lac. General OH includes both Specific & absorbed OH. If Contract
is not undertaken, ₹ 4 lac of same can be avoided. Calculate the Relevant Cost.
SPECIAL POINTS FOR MACHINES
❖ ADDITIONAL OPERATING COST OF MACHINE [EG: MACHINEMAN, FUEL ETC]:
❖ IF ROUTINE MAINTENANCE IS GIVEN:
Example:
Routine Maintenance of the Machine is ₹ 40 per month. Due to the use of Machine
for the Contract, the Maintenance cost will Increase to ₹ 60 per month. Calculate
the Relevant Cost.
OTHER MISCELLANEOUS POINTS
❖ PROVISION FOR EXPECTED INCREASE IN COST:
✓ It is just a provision created in Books of Accounts; it does not involve actual
cash flow.
✓ Hence, it is IRRELEVANT for decision making.
❖ MARKET RESEARCH SURVEY COST ALREADY UNDERTAKEN:
✓ Research is already undertaken; hence it is a HISTORIC COST [SUNK COST].
✓ Hence, it is IRRELEVANT for decision making.

treated as CASUAL or TEMPORARY
LABOUR.
❖ Relevant Cost =
Variable Overheads It is ALWAYS RELEVANT for decision making.
Fixed Overheads ❖ If nothing is specified, Fixed overhead is
always assumed as ALLOCATED or
ABSORBED OVERHEADS.
❖ It is IRRELEVANT for decision making.

UNIT-3: TARGET COSTING
CONCEPT-1: BASICS OF TARGET COSTING
❖ TRADITIONAL COSTING VS TARGET COSTING SYSTEM
❖ TARGET COSTING MEANING
✓ It is a structured approach to determine the cost at which a product must be
produced
✓ To generate a desired profit at an anticipated SP.
✓ It is the opposite of COST PLUS MARGIN model.

❖ STEPS NEEDED TO SOLVE A PRACTICAL QUESTION ON TARGET COSTING
Step-1: Determine the Target Selling Price
Step-2: Determine the dezired Profit Margin
Step-3: Calculate TARGET COST
Step-4: Calculate Present / Estimated Cost of the Product
Step-5: Determine COST GAP/ Cost Reduction Target
Step-6: Apply Cost Reduction Techniques to Eliminate COST
GAP
❖ MISCELLANEOUS POINTS [IMPORTANT FOR MCQ’S]
✓ Target Costing is a market driven system of Cost reduction.
✓ In Target Costing, focus is on managing Costs at Developmental (or) design stage
of the product.

SPECIAL POINTERS [BLAST FROM THE PAST]
❖ BENEFIT DUE TO IMPROVEMENT IN LABOUR PRODUCTIVITY:
Example:
Existing Labour Cost is ₹40 lakhs by using the current machine. The new Machine is
expected to Improve Productivity of Workers by 10%. Calculate the revised Labour
Cost & savings in Labour Cost. Note that sales volume will be same in existing as well
as revised scenario.
❖ CALCULATION OF BENEFIT DUE TO PURCHASE OF NEW MACHINE:
Example:
A vendor supplying the machine has offered an advanced technology Semi-Automatic
Machine of ₹10 lakhs as a replacement to old machine worth ₹3 lakhs. The vendor has
agreed to take back the old machine at ₹1 lakh only. Depreciation is chargeable at
15% on WDV basis. Maintenance charge of existing machine will be ₹1 lakh per annum
whereas there will be a free warranty services for the new machine for the first 2
years. Assuming Cost of Capital as 15%, calculate the net benefit from buying the new
Machine.

UNIT-4: LIFE CYCLE COSTING
GOLDEN RULE:
Do all the calculations for the ENTIRE LIFE CYCLE OF THE PRODUCT.
CONCEPT-1: BASICS OF PRODUCT LIFE CYCLE COSTING
❖ TRADITIONAL COSTING v/s LIFE CYCLE COSTING
✓ In traditional Costing, we report the revenue, cost & profit for a particular
period (monthly, quarterly or annually).
✓ However, in Life cycle costing, we record the revenue, cost & profit over the
entire Life cycle of the product.
✓ Life Cycle Costing identifies & accumulates the cost, revenues attributable to
a product from its inception to abandonment.
✓ The aim is to maximise the profit over the life time of the product.
❖ 4 PHASES OF A LIFE CYCLE OF A PRODUCT
There are 4 phases in the life cycle of a product namely
✓ INTRODUCTION
✓ GROWTH
✓ MATURITY
✓ DECLINE
Note: In the practical business world, there are 2 additional phases namely,
▪ Development Phase: This phase is normally before the introduction phase
when the product is getting developed. No revenue will accrue to company in
this phase.
▪ Extinction phase: This phase comes after the decline phase when the product
exits from the market.
