Nature and Behaviour of Cost
Cost object, classification and behaviour Cost‐Volume‐Profit (CVP) Analysis
Any activity/unit used to measure cost Used to investigate change in profit that
Classified as: results from: Activity levels
Estimation Techniques & Linear Equation Per unit selling price
Direct cost Indirect cost The Linear Equation (pg. 21) Per unit variable cost
(Traceable) (Not Traceable) Variable cost per unit Total fixed cost
Manufacturing Cost Non‐Manufacturing Cost Total Cost Y=a+bx Activity level CVP Assumes: Selling price is constant,
(Used to make product) (Not part of making product) Total fixed cost * All costs are linear (can be divided into V & F
Direct Labour Marketing 1) High & Low method (Variable cost per unit) elements), V & F costs remain constant,
Direct Material Selling & distribution cost All Highest Cost – All Lowest Cost (Rand) Sales mix constant for all goods, Inventory levels
Direct Expenses Administrative cost Highest Activity – Lowest Activity (Level) don’t change & it only applies to relevant range
Manufacturing Overhead * Fixed costs are determined by: Upper & lower activity in which org. normally
= TC for activity Level – (VC p/u x related activity level.) operates.

NOTE: Fixed Cost – Stays the same
Semi‐Fixed – Increases in fixed increments/steps, e.g. R200, R400, R600.
Variable – Changes in direct proportion to production quantity – cost per unit.
Semi‐Variable – Fixed based cost, but variable cost added on top e.g. Phone line fixed,
but Airtime depends on calls made.

, Inventory Valuation & Methods:
Inventory Valuation Definition First‐in‐First‐out (FIFO) Method Weighted Average Method (WAM)
Process of assigning cost to inventory Purchased first Issue first ‐ Assume each batch made up with same quantity.
Flow of materials does not dictate flow of cost ‐ No attempt made to identify time purchased,
Any tangible Property (Issue and sale not the same) (assume average price from this year & last)
bought, manufactured,
processed, developed or
sold by an organisation
In Inventory ledger Calculate:
Categories of Inventory: Returns to supplier: Returns from factory: Total cost of materials (per “class”) .
‐ Raw Materials (Direct materials): Used in the Negative purchase Negative issue Number of units (per “class”)

‐ Consumables: Smaller items kept in store used
