1.5 This problem can form the basis of an introductory discussion of the entire field of management accounting:
in addition, the following basic distinctions of financial accounting and management accounting
1 The focus of management accounting is on helping internal users to make better decisions, whereas the
focus of financial accounting is on helping external users to make better decisions. Management accounting
helps in making a host of decisions, including pricing, product choices, investments in equipment, making
or buying goods and services, and manager rewards.
2 GAAP affect both internal and external accounting. However, change in internal accounting is not
inhibited by GAAP. For example, if an organization wants to account for assets on the basis of replacement
costs for internal purposes, no outside agency can prohibit such accounting. This means the company
may set up several sets of records to suit to every reports the management may need for specific purpose
3 Budgets, the formal expressions of management plans, are a major feature of management accounting,
whereas they are not as prominent in financial accounting. Budgets are major devices for compelling and
disciplining management planning.
4 An important use of management accounting information is evaluation of performance, which often takes the
form of comparison of actual resulfs against budgets, providing incentive and feedback to improve future
decisions.

revenues under variable costing while only P35,151.52 (P40,000 /16,500 x 14,500) was charged to the
revenues under the absorption costing. (P40,000 - P35,151.52)

3 No, management cannot use the theater capacity or average boxes sold because the number of seats per
theater does not indicate the number of patarons attending nor the popcorn-buying habits in different
geographic locations. Each theater may have a different "boxes sold per seat" average with significant
variations. The decision rule does not take into account variations in demand that could affect the model choice.

P50,000 = P500,000 - P200,000 -VC(5,000)
VC(5,000) = P500,000 -P200,000 - P50,000

2 Net income if change is effected NI = Sales - Total Fixed costs - Total variable costs
NI = P95(7,000) - P250,000 - P40(7,000)
NI = P665,000 - P250,000 - P280,000
NI = 135,000.00
Based on the new computation, net income will increase to P135,000; the company must
make the change.
This indicates that operating incofme will be less sensitive to changes in sales if the production
process is changed; thus the change would reduce risks. However, the change would increase
the breakeven point. Still, with lower sales price, it might be easier to achieve the higher new BEP.

5 Changes in volume affect profits in the new process ( a high fixed cost, low variable cost set up) more than
they affect profits in the old process. Therefore, profits in the old are more stable and less risky. The higher
risk new process promises greater rewards when conditions are favorable, but the opposite if unfavorable.

ABC is more accurate costing method and thus the management may use this
costing method to all of its products.

7 d If has unused capacity of 150,000 units (300,000 - 150,000) that can be sold externally.
Since the fixed cost will not increase if additional units are produced and sold, Hubcap only
needs to cover its incremental cost of P5 per unit.
8 a P5 Since Hubcup division can sell its entire output at P10 to outsiders, there is no benefit
to selling internally (to assembly division) at a lesser price unless cost savings
from making such an internal sale outweigh the reduced price.
Assembly is offering to buy 150,000 units (half the output) at P1.00 less
than division can get outside. This could decrease Hubcap's contribution
margin by P150,000 (150,000 x P1.00). To offset this, assembly would have
to be able to avoid P150,000 of other costs.
9 a P10 If Hubcap can sell its entire output to outsiders at a price of P10, it cannot sell any unit
interenally lesser than P10. Therefore, the minimum acceptable price is P10
10 b P65 Variable cost is P65. Equal to variable cost since there is excess capacity.
