Operating Costing

Cost Accounting although has been traditionally associated with manufacturing companies, it is applicable for service companies as well. In the modern competitive market, with the increased importance of service sector, the need for cost accounting has also increased. The costing method applied in these (service) industries is known as ‘Operating Costing’.

The term service costing or operating costing refers to the computation of the total operational cost incurred on each unit of the intangible product. These intangible products or services can be either in the form of internal services that are carried out by industries as supporting activities for the manufacturing of goods, or in the way of external services that are offered as a significant product to the customers by the service sector companies.

Operating costing is that form of operation costing which applies where standardized services are provided either by an undertaking or by a service cost centre within an undertaking.

CIMA Terminology

 

What are service organisations?

Profit-seeking service organisations include accountancy firms, law firms, management consultants, transport companies, banks, insurance companies and hotels. Almost all not-for-profit organisations - hospitals, schools, libraries and so on – are also service organisations. Service organisations also include charities and the public sector.

Specific characteristics of services are as follows:

  1. Services are intangible.
  2. The production and consumption of a service are simultaneous.
  3. Services are perishable (cannot be stored for later sale or use.
  4. Services are heterogeneous.
  5. Services are inseparable– cannot be seperated from their providers.
  6. Quality of services are variable.

Service costing versus other costing methods

  • With many services, the cost of direct materials consumed will be relatively small compared to the labour, direct expenses and overheads cost. In product costing, the direct materials are often a greater proportion of the total cost.
  • Because of the difficulty of identifying costs with specific cost units in service costing, the indirect costs tend to represent a higher proportion of total cost compared with product costing.
  • The output of most service organisations is often intangible and hence difficult to define. Therefore, it is difficult to establish a measurable cost unit.
  • The service industry includes such a wide range of organisations which provide such different services and have such different cost structures that costing will vary considerably from one service to another.
  • There is often a high fixed cost of maintaining an organisation’s total capacity, which may be underutilised at certain times.

Nature of Operating Costing: Ascertainment of Cost Unit

The main objective of operating costing is to compute the cost of the services offered by the organisation. For doing this, it is necessary to decide the unit of cost in such cases. One main problem with service costing is the ability to define a realistic cost unit that represents a suitable measure of the service provided. The cost units vary from industry to industry. Generally, two different kinds of cost unit are ascertained under service costing: Simple Cost unit and Composite Cost unit.

Simple Cost Unit:

The cost unit, which uses only one single parameter for measurement of the service cost, is termed as a simple cost unit. For example, in goods transport industry, cost per ton kilometer is to be ascertained.

Composite Cost Unit:

If the service is a function of two activity variables, a composite cost unit may be more appropriate. Hotels, for example, may use the ‘occupied bed-night’ as an appropriate unit for cost ascertainment and control. Each organisation will need to ascertain the Composite Cost Unit most appropriate to its activities.

Simple Cost Unit Composite Cost Unit
Water Supply ---- Per Kilo liter Hospital Per Bed-Day / Per Patient - Day
Canteen ---- Per Meal / Per Person / Per Staff Hotel Per Room - Day / Per Room - Night / Per Bed - Day
Road Maintenance ---- Per Kilometer Electricity Per Kilowatt - Hour
Street Lighting ---- Per Lamp / Per Point Entertainment in Cinema or Theater Per Ticket - Show
Private Transport ---- Per Kilometer / Per Hour / Per Trip / Per Passenger Passenger Transport Per Tassenger - Kilometer / Per Passenger - Mile

Composite unit may be computed in two ways. They are:

  1. Absolute (Weighted Average) basis
  2. Commercial (Simple Average) basis

In both bases of computation of service cost unit, weightage is also given to qualitative factors rather than quantitative (which are directly related with variable cost elements) factors alone.

  1. Weighted Average or Absolute Basis– It is summation of the products of qualitative and quantitative factors.
  2. Simple Average or Commercial Basis – It is the product of average qualitative and total quantitative factors. For example, in case of goods transport, Commercial Ton-Km is arrived at by multiplying total distance km., by average load quantity.

The formula to compute cost unit under service costing is:

Average cost per unit of service = Total costs incurred in the period/Number of service units supplied in the period 

Illustration 48

Lorry starts with a load of 20 MT of Goods from Station ‘A’. It unloads 8 MT in Station ‘B’ and balance goods in Station ‘C’. On return trip, it reaches Station ‘A’ with a load of 16 MT, loaded at Station ‘C’. The distance between A to B, B to C and C to A are 80 Kms, 120 Kms and 160 Kms, respectively. Compute “Absolute MT- Kilometer” and “Commercial MT – Kilometer”. 

MT = Metric Ton or Ton).

Transport Sector

Transport undertakings include goods transport organisations as well as passenger transport organisations. The cost unit is either ton kilometer or passenger kilometer. The meaning is cost of carrying one ton over a distance of one kilometer or cost of carrying one passenger for a distance of one kilometer. The costs are shown under the following heads:

  1. Standing Charges or Fixed Costs: These are the fixed costs, which remain constant irrespective of the distance travelled. These costs include the following costs:
    1. License fees and insurance
    2. Salaries of drivers, cleaners and conductors
    3. Garage costs which include garage rent and other relevant expenses
    4. Depreciation of the vehicle and other assets
    5. Taxes applicable
    6. Any other fixed charge like administrative expenses etc.
  2.  Variable Costs or Running Costs: These costs include:
    1. Petrol and diesel
    2. Lubricating oil
    3. Grease
    4. Any other variable costs
  3. Maintenance Charges: These charges include expenses like repairs and maintenance, tyre, and other charges connected with maintenance like servicing of the vehicles etc.

D. Cost per passenger kilometre* ₹13,90,000 / 5,62,500 passenger kilometers   2.471

Working:

* Passenger kilometers are computed as below:

= Number of buses × Distance in one round trip × Seating capacity available × Percentage of seating capacity actually used × Number of days in a month × No. of trips

= 5 buses × 50 kilometers × 2 × 50 passengers × 75% × 30 days = 5,62,500 passenger-kms

Hotel Sector

Service costing is an effective tool in respect of hotel industry which run on commercial basis. Hence, it is necessary to compute the cost in order to determine the price of various services by the hotel and to find out the profit or loss at the end of a particular period.

In this case, the costs associated with different services offered may be identified and cost per unit may be worked out. The cost unit may be Guest - day or Room – day. For calculation of cost per guest day or room day, estimated occupancy rates at different point of time are taken into account, for example, peak season or lean season.

Solution:

Working Notes

Total Room days in a year

Season Occupancy (Room-days) Equivalent Full Room charge days)
Season – 80% occupancy  100 Rooms × 80% × 6 months × 30 days  in  a month = 14,400   Room Days 14,400 Room Days × 100% = 14,400
Off-season – 40% occupancy  100 Rooms × 40%  ×  6 months  × 30 days  in  a month = 7,200   Room Days 7,200 Room Days × 50% = 3,600
Total Room days  14,400 + 7,200 = 21,600 Room Days 18,000 Full Room days 

Lighting Charges

It is given in the question that lighting charges for 8 months is ₹ 120 per month and during winter season of 4 months it is ₹ 30 per month. Further it is also given that peak season is 6 months and off season is 6 months.

Being Hill station, winter season is to be considered as part of off-season. Hence, the non-winter season of 8 months include: peak season of 6 months and off-season of 2 months. 

Hence, the lighting charges are calculated as follows: 

Season Occupancy (Room-days)
Season & Non-winter – 80% Occupancy 100 Rooms × 80% × 6 months × ₹ 120 per month = ₹ 57,600
Off-season & Non-winter – 40% Occupancy (8 – 6 months) 100 Rooms × 40% × 2 months × ₹ 120 per month = ₹9,600
Off-season & winter – 40% Occupancy months 100 Rooms × 40% × 4 months × ₹ 30 per month = ₹ 4,800
Total Lighting charges  ₹ 57,600 + 9,600 + 4,800 = ₹ 72,000

Statement of total cost

Particulars
Staff  salary 5,50,000
Repairs to building 2,61,000
Laundry & Linen 80,000
Interior 1,75,000
Sundries Expenses 1,90,800
Depreciation on Building (₹ 200 Lakhs × 80% × 5%) 8,00,000
Depreciation on Furniture & Equipment (₹ 200 Lakhs × 20% × 15%) 6,00,000
Room attendant’s wages (₹ 10 × 21,600 room days ) 2,16,000
Lighting charges 72,000
Total cost 29,44,800
Add: Profit Margin (20% on Room rent or 25% on Cost) 7,09,200
Total Rent to be charged 36,81,000

Computation of Room Rent per day

= Takings/Equivalent Full Room Rent days = ₹ 36,81,000/ 18,000 = ₹ 204.50

∴ Room Rent during season = ₹ 204.50

and, Room Rent during Off-Season = ₹ 204.50 x 50% = ₹ 102.25

You are required to work out the room rent chargeable per day both during the season and the off-season months on the basis of the foregoing information.

Solution:

(i) Computation of Estimated Cost for the year ending 31st March, 20X1

Particulars Amount (₹)
Salary 2,75,000
Repairs 1,30,500
Laundry and linen 40,000
Interior decoration 87,500
Depreciation:  
5% on ₹ 80 lakhs: ₹ 4,00,000  
15% on ₹ 20 lakhs: ₹ 3,00,00 7,00,000
Sundry  expenses 95,400
Total costs 13,28,400

(ii) Number of room days in a year:

Occupancy during season for 6 months @ 80% (50 x0.80 x 6 x 30) = 7,200

Off-season occupancy for 6 months @ 40% (50 x 0.40 x 6 x 30) = 3,600

Total number of room days during a year = 10,800

Equivalent Full Room Rent days 

Occupancy during season for 6 months @ 80% =7,200 × 100% = 7,200

Off-season occupancy for 6 months @ 40% = (3,600 × 50%) = 1,800

Total number of room days during a year = 9,000

(iii) Attendant’s salary

For 10,800 room days @ ₹ 5 per day = ₹ 54,000

(iv) Light charges for 8 months @ ₹ 120 per month i.e. ₹ 120/30 = ₹ 4 per room day.

Light charges for 4 months @ ₹ 30 per month, i.e. ₹ 30/30 = ₹ 1 per room day

Total lighting charges:

During season @ ₹ 4 for 7200 days = ₹ 28,800

During off season 2 months @ ₹ 4 for 1200 days (2/6 x 3600) = ₹ 4,800

During 4 months of winter @ Re. 1 for 2,400 days (4/6 x 3600) = ₹ 2,400

Total Lighting charges = 36,000

Note:

It is given in the example that during four months of winter, the lighting is ₹ 30 per room, which is 1/4th of the lighting charges during the remaining period of the year. Hence the rate of room day which is ₹ 4 will also be 1/4th for winter period and so it is taken as Re. 1 per room day.

Statement of Total Estimated Cost

Particulars Amount (₹)
Expenses as shown in I above 13,28,000
Attendant’s salary as shown in III above 54,000
Lighting charges as shown in IV above 36,000
Total cost 14,18,400

Computation of total Full Room Days

During season : 7,200

Off-season : 1,800 (Equivalent to 50% rate of 3,600 days)

Total Full Room Days : 9,000

Computation of Room Rent

Cost per room day : ₹ 14,18,400 / 9,000 = ₹ 157.60

Add: Profit margin at 20% of rent or 25%

Of cost = ₹ 39.40

Room Rent = ₹ 197.00

Therefore, during season, room rent of ₹ 197 is to be charged while in the off-season room rent of ₹ 98.50 is to be charged.

"Koncept perfectly justifies what it sounds, i.e, your concepts are meant to be cleared if you are a Konceptian. My experience with Koncept was amazing. The most striking experience that I went through was the the way Yash sir and Ruchika ma'am taught us in the lectures, making it very interesting and lucid. Another great feature of Koncept is that you get mentor calls which I think drives you to stay motivated and be disciplined. And of course it goes without saying that Yash sir has always been like a friend to me, giving me genuine guidance whenever I was in need. So once again I want to thank Koncept Education for all their efforts."
