OD001 Financial Management – An Explanation And Critical Assessment Of Absorption Costing And Activity Based Costing In Applying Overheads To Products/Services

You have been asked by the Managing Director of Movie Ltd. to prepare a report for the next meeting of the Board of Directors.

Your report should address the following issues:

a) An explanation and critical assessment of Absorption Costing and Activity Based Costing in applying overheads to products/services.   20 Marks

d) An explanation of the FRS 1 Cash flow statement and why is useful to a business.  20 Marks

Activity-based costing, also known as ABC, is an accounting method that identifies a company’s activities and assigns costs to units produced by the company based on the number of activities used by each unit.

Activity-based costing first determines the purpose and cost of each activity performed by a company and then assigns a proportionate cost to every individual unit produced based on its consumption of those activities.

Let’s say a company spends $20,000 per year on equipment setup. Under activity-based costing, it would then attempt to assign a proportion of that $20,000 to each unit it produces.

However, doing so is not just a simple matter of taking that $20,000 and dividing it by the number of units produced. Instead, the company would need to figure out which units or products utilize which equipment the most, and then assign each unit a cost based on its individual consumption of that usage.
