Question 1 (30 Marks)

Cost accounting is an accounting process that measures all of the costs associated with production, including both fixed and variable costs. The purpose of cost accounting is to assist management in decision-making processes that optimize operations based on efficient cost management.

Required:

Identify and clearly explain 5 different types of costs that are used in managerial decision making. In addition, provide a clear and relevant example for each of these costs for Aston Martin car manufacturing company.

Question 2: (30 Marks)

A. Company Alpha is using a two-year-old machine costing $24,000. The company uses straight-line depreciation, while the machine has a useful life of 10 years.

Company A is considering buying another machine costing $45,000 with a useful life of 9 years. The new machine won’t have any effect on the number of units that a company produces. Company A, however, expects the variable cost to come down from $34,000 to $2

2,000

. Fixed costs will also be the same at $20,000. Using the above information, determine which are relevant and which are irrelevant and the cost implication for the company. Provide a justification for your choice. (15 Marks)

B. The company also has a new project which requires the following three types of labor.

Hours Required

Additional Information

Unskilled

12,000

Paid at $8 per hour and existing staff are fully utilized. The company will hire new staff to meet this additional demand.

Semi-

Skilled

2,000

Paid at $12 per hour. These employees are difficult to recruit, and the company retains a number of permanently employed staff, even if there is no work to do. There is currently 800 hours of idle time available, and any additional hours would be fulfilled by temporary staff that would be paid at $14/hour.

Skilled

8,000

Paid at $15 per hour. There is a severe shortage of employees with these skills and the only way that this labor can be provided for the new project would be for the company to move employees away from making Product X. A unit of Product X takes 4 hours to make and makes a contribution of $24/unit.

Required: What is the relevant cost of the labor hours required for the new project? Students should analyze each type of labor involved and calculate the total relevant cost.  (15 Marks)
