Management accounting
Summary mid-term

College 1
Management accounting = measures and reports financial and non-financial information and
helps and motivates managers to make good decisions to fulfill an organization’s goals.

Cost accounting = measures and reports financial and non-financial data that relates to the
cost of acquiring or consuming resources by an organization.

Management accounting kan 2 rollen innemen:
 Decision facilitating  link tussen strategie en financiële controle versterken
 Decision influencing  principaal en agent beïnvloeden, 3 onderdelen: motivating
employees, coordinating among departments en controlling performance.

Management accounting  meer strategisch en lange-termijn en ook steeds vaker niet-
financieel.

Nettowinst na het openen van een webwinkel bij een schoenenwinkel. Lijkt alsof nettowinst
hoger wordt, maar bestaande winkelklanten switchen naar webshopklanten. In real life daalt
de nettowinst. Probleem = product kannibalisatie (switch naar online aankopen). Lange
termijn potentieel van webshop = overleven.
In webshop uitbreiden = Opportunity cost

Strategic management accounting = a type of accounting that focuses not only on internal
factors of a company, but factors that are external. This includes industry-wide financials,
averages and upcoming trends
 Market trends
 Predictors for financial results/ KPI
 Financial and non-financial strategy (Balanced scorecard)
 Risk management
 Long-term perspective

Different types of responsibility centers
 Cost center: accountable for costs
 Revenue center: accountable for revenues
 Profit center: accountable for revenues and costs
 Investment center: accountable for revenues, costs and investments

Categories of stock
 Direct materials
 Work-in-progress: used to calculate the cost of goods manufactured
 Finished goods: used to calculate the cost of goods sold

Costs = resources sacrificed to achieve a given objective

, College 2
Opportunity cost = de winst die niet gerealiseerd wordt door het gemiste alternatief
Actual costs = zoals ze zijn
Budgeted = vooraf verwachte kosten

Choice of responsibility centers is based on the controllability principle = keep
managers/employees accountable for the items they can control

Kosten
 Direct materials
 Direct labor
 Manufacturing overhead

Cost = monetary values of all resources needed to achieve the cost object
Cost accumulation = stage 1 = optellen
Cost assignment = stage 2 = tracing and allocating

Time span  classification depends on the time horizon, costs can be classified as fixed in
short run, but variable in the long run

Relevant range  costs can be variable in a certain range, but require additional fixed costs
when range is exceeded

Cost estimation approaches
 Industrial-engineering or work-measurement method; step by step monitoring and
measuring of inputs, time-consuming and often not feasible
 Conference method; use estimations on the basis of analysis and opinions of experts
from different areas, quick but highly dependent on experts input
 Account analysis method; classification in variable, fixed, mixed cost drivers, theory
driven but can be subjective, widely used in practice
 Quantitative analysis; data-driven classification, cost driver and cost of a cost object

High-low method: lowest value cost driver and highest value cost driver

B = hoogste-laagste/ hoogste-laagste number of meals = variabele kosten
Dan A berekenen (intercept) = vaste kosten

College 3
Job costing systems = cost objects are individual units, batches or lots of a distinct product or
service (called a job)

Process-costing systems = cost objects are identical or similar units, product, or services
(mass production)

Hybrid systems = combination of job- and process-costing
