From the following ratios and details, prepare Trading Profit and Loss Account of Arjuna Company Ltd; for the year ended on 31st December,200X:-

Net Operating Profitability = 20%Gross Profitability = 40%Net non-business income = Rs.50,000Material Purchases = Rs.3,20,000Opening Stock of material = Rs. 40,000Closing Stock of material = Rs. 60,000

Administrative Expenses: Sales Expenses = 3:2Wages : Administrative Expenses = 5:3Factory Expenses : Wages = 1:2Non-business expenses were 5% of the non-manufacturing operating expenses.

Preparation of Income Statement

Page 2: From the following ratios and details, prepare Trading Profit and Loss Account of Arjuna Company Ltd; for the year ended on 31 st December,200X:- Net Operating

Solution to the ProblemComputation of Cost of Sales : -Opening stock = 40,000+ Purchases = 3,20,000 - Closing stock = (60,000)Cost of Sales = 3,00,000Gross Profit = 40% of Sales –(1)Net operating Profit = 20% of Sales –(2) (Gross Profit - Net operating Exp)Therefore Net Operating Exp = 20% of Sales (Admin.+ Selling Exp.=Ope. Exp.)

Therefore (Admn.+ Selling)Exp. = 20% of Sales (Admn.: Selling Exp = 3:2)

Therefore Admn. Exp.= 12% of Sales -(3) Therefore Selling Exp.= 8% of Sales –(4)Therefore Wages = (5/3) x 12% (Wages: Admin = 5:3)

= 20% of Sales – (5)Therefore Factory Expenses = (1/2) x 20%

= 10% of Sales –(6) (Factory Exp:Wages = 1: 2)

Unit in Rs.

Trading Profit and Loss A/c. for the Period 31st December,200X:

Sales = Gross Profit + Cost of Sales + Wages + Factory expenses S = 0.40 x S + 3,00,000 + 0.2 x S + 0.1 x STherefore 0.3 Sales = 3,00,000Therefore Sales = 10,00,000Wages = 2,00,000Factory Exp. = 1,00,000Gross Profit = 4,00,000Admn. Exp. = 1,20,000 Non Manufacturing Selling Exp. = 80,000 Operating Exp.=2,00,000.Net operating Profit = 2,00,000 - (1)Net Non Business Inc.= 50,000 – (2)Non Business Exp. = 0.05 x 2,00,000 = 10,000 – (3)(5% of Non Manufacturing Operating Expenses)ThereforeNet Profit = 2,40,000 ( 1 + 2 – 3 )

The Co. produces 3 products A, B & C.

Following are some important estimations for 200X – 200X1 :

1) Co. will sell 2,000, 4,000 & 8,000 units of A, B & C respectively.

2) P/V ratio of A, B, & C will be 50 % , 40 % & 60 % respectively.

3) Co. will have to maintain the ratio of “Sale Price Per Unit” of A,B & C as 5:3:2.

4) Co. expects 10 % increase in reserves. It would like to give 10 % dividend on share capital.

5) Co’s. tax rate is 50 %. Fixed Assets are depreciated at 10 % p.a.

6) Other Operating Fixed Costs will remain at Rs. 1 Lac.

7) Required : 1 Fixation of per unit sale price of A, B & C.

Page 6: From the following ratios and details, prepare Trading Profit and Loss Account of Arjuna Company Ltd; for the year ended on 31 st December,200X:- Net Operating

Solution:- Income StatementWorkings are required to start from the bottom line in this case.

(i) 10% increase in Reserves means Retained Earnings are 10% of last

years’ reserves. i.e. Rs.15 Lacs.

(ii) Dividend is declared at 10% on Share Capital i.e. Rs.5Lacs. Therefore,

PAT = Retained Earnings + Dividend = Rs. 20 Lacs.

(iii) Co’s Tax rate is 50%. therefore,Tax = Rs.20 Lacs and PBT = Rs. 40

Lacs.

(iv) Interest paid on 14% Debentures of Rs.100 Lacs is Rs.14 Lacs

Therefore PBIT = Rs.54 Lacs.

(v) Fixed Assets are depreciated at 10% p.a. i.e. Depreciation is Rs. 20 Lacs

when added to other Operating Fixed Costs of Rs.1 Lac results into

Total Operating Fixed Costs of Rs.21 Lacs.

(vi) Therefore, Contribution = PBIT + Operating Fixed Costs = Rs. 75 Lacs.

Sales Units (no.) 2000 4000 8000

Sales (Rs.) 10000x 12000x 16000x

P/V Ratio 50% 40% 60%

Therefore, Contribution 5000x 4800x 9600x

Therefore, Total Contribution (Rs.) 19,400 x = 75,00,000

Therefore, x = 386.6

Thus, Sales Price Per Unit 1932.99 1159.8 773.2

Therefore, Sales (Rs.) 38,65,980 46,39,200 61,85,600

Therefore, Total Sales = Rs. 1,46,90,780 = Rs. 146.91 LacsTherefore, Variable Cost = Rs. (146.91 –75) = Rs.71.91 Lacs

Computation of Sales Price

Page 9: From the following ratios and details, prepare Trading Profit and Loss Account of Arjuna Company Ltd; for the year ended on 31 st December,200X:- Net Operating

Preparation of Balance Sheet

(i) New Reserves : 150 (old) + 15 (addition) = 165

(ii) New Fixed Assets : 200 (old) – 20 (Depreciation) = 180

(iii) New Working Capital : Own Funds + Borrowing – Fixed Assets = (215 + 100 – 180) = Rs. 135 Lacs.

Therefore, Change in W.C.= Rs.135 Lacs – Rs.100 Lacs = Rs.35 Lacs.

This Increase is on A/c of : Depreciation = Rs.20 Lacs Add : Retained Earnings = Rs.15 Lacs = Rs.35 Lacs

Thus remaining machine hours (30,000) are available for maximistion of contribution.If all the 30,000 machine hours are used for producing the product A (having highest contribution) then no. of units of A produced= 30,000 / 2 =15,000.Thus total no. of units of A produced and sold= 15,000+1,000 (minimum no.) = 16,000 < 20,000 less than the maximum quantity of ‘A’ is allowed.(a) Therefore ideal product mix and maximum contribution:-

A Case Study onResponsibility Accounting for Performance Evaluation using

Variance Analysis Technique

Phase 1 Preparing a Budget StatementThe Chempro India Pvt. Ltd. prepared its annual sales budget for the year

2000 as shows below:

Rs.

Total Sales 5,00,000

Budget performance (sales) from each territorial manager:

Manager --- Territory A

1,20,000

Manager --- Territory B

1,30,000

Manager --- Territory C

1,60,000

Manager --- Territory D

90,000

5,00,000

The Sales General Manager is responsible for the Overall Sales Performance

of the company and the territorial managers are accountable to him.

Phase 2 Recording the Actual Performance during the

YearRs.

Total Sales 6,00,000

Actual Sales Performance from each Territorial Manager:

Manager --- Territory A 1,40,000

Manager --- Territory B 1,20,000

Manager --- Territory C 2,70,000

Manager --- Territory D 70,000

6,00,000

Phase 3: Calculating the Favourable and Unfavourable Variances

Responsible Individual Budgeted Sales Actual Sales Variance

Sales General Manager 5,00,000 6,00,000 1,00,000 (F)

Territory A Manager 1,20,000 1,40,000 20,000 (F)

Territory B Manager 1,30,000 1,20,000 10,000 (A)

Territory C Manager 1,60,000 2,70,000 1,10,000 (F)

Territory D Manager 90,000 70,000 20,000 (A)

Note : F= Favourable ; A = AdverseThe Sales General Manager submitted his Divisional Performance Report

with the above variances to the Managing Director of the Company. The

Territorial Sales Managers gave the causes for the Various Variances as

follows:

A: Extra Efforts

B: Delayed Supplies from Factory

C: Extra Efforts and New Marketing Strategies

D: Delayed Supplies from Factory

Page 41: From the following ratios and details, prepare Trading Profit and Loss Account of Arjuna Company Ltd; for the year ended on 31 st December,200X:- Net Operating

Phase 4: Finding out the true causes of the Variances.Generally, there is a tendency that the people responsible for bad

performance blame it on someone else. Therefore there is no specific way

to find out the cause of a good/poor variance. As long as the variance is

good the person is rewarded , due to which he may try and grab the reward

for the TOTAL good performance which may not be only due to him.

Therefore the true cause of variance need to be Known so as to give a

suitable reward/penalty. One person alone should not gain/lose everything

if he could alone not control the good/bad variance.

Such causes also decided the extent to which the standards should be

revised, i.e. the same standards of performance cannot be expected under

different operational / economical circumstances. The cause given for the

good/bad performance may be true or false as the general manager (sales)

may not clearly state the reasons for his subordinates’ performance as

ultimately he is responsible for it. Hence the managing director should

assign such work to the managing accountant who shall in return find out

the true causes.

Page 42: From the following ratios and details, prepare Trading Profit and Loss Account of Arjuna Company Ltd; for the year ended on 31 st December,200X:- Net Operating

E.g. The true causes of the variance in the Chempro India Pvt. Ltd. Were

found as follows by the Managing Accountant: Territory

Sales Causes for the Variance

A Total Rs. 20,000 (F)

10,000 (F)+5,000 (F)+5,000 (F)

1. Increased Selling Price

2. Government Order

3. Reduced Selling Price as Production Cost was reduced

B Total Rs. 10,000 (A)

8,000 (A)+2,000 (A)+1,000 (F)+1,000 (A)

4. Inadequate Efforts5. Delayed Supplies from Factory6. Increased Selling Price7. Unexpected increase in Sales Tax, so undue increase on Selling Price

C Total Rs. 1,10,000 (F)

60,000 (F)+20,000 (F)+10,000 (F)+20,000 (F)

8. New Marketing Strategy 9. Government Order10. Subsidiary prices as per government’s instruction11. Reduced Selling Price as production cost was reduced

D Total Rs. 20,000 (A)

11,000 (A)+9,000 (A)

12. Inadequate distribution facilities13. Delayed Supplies from Factory

9,000 (A)11,000 (A)

12. UC (Non-Recurring) 13. UC (Non-Recurring)

Note: It is difficult and to an extent subjective to decide the degree of controllability for a particular cause, i.e. whether the variance is C or UC e.g. a responsible person argues the cause of an adverse variance is UC and his superior may say it to be C e.g. in item 9. Since the favourable variance is a result of the govt. Order the response of manager C is also important as he might have grabbed the govt. order with his awareness.

Phase 6 Deciding the quantum of Reward / Penalty

The person should be penalized/rewarded for only the controllable

portion of his Favourable/Unfavourable variance.

In the illustration the sales manager of territory D will not be

penalized because his advise variance was due to UC factors.

Similarly manager C will be rewarded only 70,000 as out of his

whole favourable variance, only that much was controllable.

Manager B has a variance of 11,000 (A) and a 1000 (F). He will be

proportionately penalized and rewarded. Manager A will be

rewarded only 50% of his favourable variance as only that much

is in his control.

Page 45: From the following ratios and details, prepare Trading Profit and Loss Account of Arjuna Company Ltd; for the year ended on 31 st December,200X:- Net Operating

Phase 7 Revising the standards of performance

Due to fast changing operational/ financial environments /

methods/ techniques/ expectations requirements, standards of

performance have to be timely revised. The causes for the

variances have to be studied carefully and the degree of

controllability has to be analysed with trend technique. The

following illustration will explain this aspect further.

Annual Sales Budget from Jan’95-Dec’2002 Rs.

1,60,000

Avg. Actual Annual Sales achieved in above period Rs.

1,70,000

Yearly sales variance (F) Rs. 10,000

Frequent cause for yearly Variance Govt. order

not

estimated

each year

Page 46: From the following ratios and details, prepare Trading Profit and Loss Account of Arjuna Company Ltd; for the year ended on 31 st December,200X:- Net Operating

Therefore the Additional Sales of Rs. 10,000 should be added regularly

for 6 years to the budget of 2001 and it should increase to 1,70,000. This

revision made is a result of the frequent additional sales and is expected

to flow in the coming years as well.

If there is a favourable trend in a particular territory in the Variance, the

Sales Budget of the coming year may be more Optimistic and this may

also be introduced to the Other Budgets along with the techniques to

show the results of the same.

Penalty / Reward for Individual Sales Performances and revisions in the

Budgets for the coming year

The Variances Analysis Techniques is used to :

1) To Decide the Penalty / Reward Quantum

2) The revision to be made to frame the Individual Sales Budget

for the coming year.

Page 47: From the following ratios and details, prepare Trading Profit and Loss Account of Arjuna Company Ltd; for the year ended on 31 st December,200X:- Net Operating

The following table shall explain this:
