Chapter 7 the relevance and behaviour of costs
7.1 Relevant costs
Consider the followin statements
(1) When deciding between alternative courses o action, all past costs should be ignored
(2) When deciding between alternative courses o action, all future costs should be taken into account.
Which of these statement is/are correct? Only 1 because only future costs that vary with the decision
should be taken into account.
To be relevant to decision, a future cost must relate to which ONE of th following?
• The nature of the business
• The objectives of the business
• The survival of the business
• The structure of the business
- The historic cost of an asset owned is always irrelevant in any decision analysis as it does not relate to
the future nor does it vary with the decision.
- An opportunity cost is always a relevant cost.
- Opportunity cost is de ned as the cost incurred when one course of action prevents an opportunity to
derive some bene t from another course of action.
You own a collection of DVDs that you know that you could sell for £ 60. If you decide to kee them, the £
60 is known as which one of the followin costs? = opportunity cost.

Lees de vraag goed. Er staat dat Betas in frequent use zijn en dat het contract voor Omegas, waarvan de
inventory een jaar geleden gekocht is, niet meer in gebruik is en ook niet meer gebruikt wordt.
De minimum prijs is voor:
- betas: quantity x replacement cost (replacement cost omdat deze nog wel worden gebruikt) -> 650 x 14
= 9,100
- Omegas: quality x sales value (sales value omdat deze niet meer gebruikt worden, maar nog wel een
sales value hebben) -> 800 x 16 = 12,800
7.1.10
Het gaat er dus niet om hoeveel de werkers per uur krijgen uitbetaald, maar hoeveel geld er anders in
rekening zou worden gebracht bij de klant (20 pond per uur). -> dit bedrag wordt ook wel ‘engineer’s
charge-out rate to customers’ genoemd.
- Je kijkt dus naar de sales value (het bedrag waar het voor verkocht kan worden)
- Naar de kosten voor het extra materiaal dat nodig is
- Én of er vermeld staat welke uurprijs normaal gesproken in rekening wordt gebracht bij de klant.
- Opportunity costs are rarely taken into account in nancial accounting as they are not an incurred
expense. Wel in management (decision-making) accounting dus.
- Estimated sale value, a word that is commonly use in the exercises, is the same as opportunity costs.
