Service cost flows
28
Copyright © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall.
Service Company
Service companies sell their time, skills, and
knowledge
Simplest accounting
No inventory or products for sale
All costs are period costs
Incurred and expensed in same accounting period
Services may use cost accounting to accumulate
costs to particular jobs using cost flow models
similar to manufacturing companies, but GAAP
doesn’t generally allow that for reporting.

Income Statement of a Service Company
What is their cost per service if 1,950 services are
provided?
30
Copyright © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall.
Cost per service
Helps to set the price of each service provided
Consider all operating expenses (period costs)
Unit cost per service
If a service company does choose to assign costs
to service jobs, they will be able to make better
decisions as to the relative profitability of
different cost objects.

Merchandising Cost Flow
32
Copyright © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall.
Merchandising Company
Resell products purchased from suppliers
Keep an inventory of products
Cost of goods sold is a major expense
Product costs flow through the inventory
GAAP requires companies to record
inventoriable product costs as an asset until sold
33
Copyright © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall.
Includes cost to purchase goods plus freight-in
Beginning Inventory
+ Net Purchases {all inventory costs)
– Ending Inventory
= Cost of Goods Sold

Unit cost per product—helps managers set
appropriate selling prices
Formula:
Note how this differs from the service example:
The merchandiser tracks inventory costs separately
from other non-product costs, so they can better
report and manage this significant cost.

Managerial accounting focuses on the information
needs of internal users. Generally, managerial
accounting reports provide more details so that
managers have the information they need to plan and
control costs. The benefits of the managerial
accounting system must outweigh its cost.
55
Copyright © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall.
Developed economies have shifted from a
manufacturing focus to a service focus. Global
competition, e-commerce, and the Internet have
expedited both the need and the speed with which
information must be available to decision makers. JIT
production and TQM mean producing just in time to
satisfy customer demand, while constantly improving
the quality of goods and services offered to customers.
Issues where professional judgments must be made
arise often. Determining the ethical action is usually
easy. Acting ethically is where integrity and credibility
prevail. The excerpt from the IMA’s Statement of
Ethical Professional Practice guides managerial
accountants in ethical matters.

Service companies sell their time, skills, or knowledge. All of
their operating expenses are normally considered period costs
and are considered part of the cost of providing each service unit.
In larger, more advanced service companies, the operating
expenses (period costs) may be split between service costs (part
of the cost per unit of service) and non-service costs (expenses
unrelated to the service).
Merchandising companies resell products they buy from
suppliers. Merchandisers keep an inventory of products, and
managers are accountable for the purchase, storage, and sale of
the products. Inventory is an asset until it is sold. Cost of goods
sold is the total cost of merchandise inventory sold during the
period, and includes the freight to get the goods into the
warehouse. COGS divided by total units sold equals the cost per
unit for the merchandiser.

The manufacturer creates a product from raw materials
by adding direct labor and manufacturing overhead.
Because at any point in time products are at various
stages of completion, manufacturers have three
inventory accounts: Raw materials, Work in process,
and Finished goods. The schedule of cost of goods
manufactured captures these production costs to
determine the cost of goods manufactured for a period.
Product cost per unit is calculated by dividing cost of
goods manufactured by the total number of units
produced.
