Cost Allocation
Meaning
Assigning indirect costs to cost objects
These costs are not traced
Indirect costs often comprise a large percentage of Total
Overall Costs
Purposes
1.
2.
3.
4.
To provide information for economic decisions
To motivate managers and other employees
To justify costs or compute reimbursement amounts
To measure income and assets for reporting to tax
authorities

Service
Traditional Life Cycle approach may not yield the costs necessary to
meet the four-purpose criteria for cost allocation
Costs necessary for decision making may pull costs from some or all
of these six functions
4
Criteria for Cost-Allocation Decisions
Cause and Effect – variables are identified that
cause resources to be consumed
Benefits Received – the beneficiaries of the outputs
of the cost object are charged with costs in
proportion to the benefits received
Fairness (Equity) – the basis for establishing a price
satisfactory to the government and its suppliers
Most credible to operating managers
Integral part of ABC
Cost allocation here is viewed as a “reasonable” or “fair”
means of establishing selling price
Ability to Bear – costs are allocated in proportion to
the cost object’s ability to bear them
Generally, larger or more profitable objects receive
proportionally more of the allocated costs
5
Customer Revenues and
Customer Costs
Customer-Profitability Analysis is the reporting and analysis of
revenues earned from customers and costs incurred to earn
those revenues
An analysis of customer differences in revenues and costs can
provide insight into why differences exist in the operating income
earned from different customers
Customer Revenues
Price discounting is the reduction of selling prices to encourage
increases in customer purchases
Lower sales price is a tradeoff for larger sales volumes
Discounts should be tracked by customer and salesperson
Customer Cost Hierarchy categorizes costs related to
customers into different cost pools on the basis of different:
types of drivers
cost-allocation bases
degrees of difficulty in determining cause-and-effect or benefitsreceived relationships
6
Customer Cost Hierarchy Example

4.
5.
Customer output unit-level costs
Customer batch-level costs
Customer-sustaining costs
Distribution-channel costs
Corporate-sustaining costs
7
Other Factors in Evaluating Customer Profitability
Likelihood of customer retention
Potential for sales growth
Long-run customer profitability
Increases in overall demand from having well-known
customers
Ability to learn from customers

Sales Variances
Level 1: Static-budget variance – the difference between an
actual result and the static-budgeted amount
Level 2: Flexible-budget variance – the difference between an
actual result and the flexible-budgeted amount
Level 2: Sales-volume variance
Level 3: Sales-quantity variance
Level 3: Sales-mix variance
