Inventory Management,

Just-in-Time, and
Backflush Costing
Chapter

©2003 Prentice Hall Business Publishing, Cost Accounting 11/e, Horngren/Datar/Foster 20 - 1


Just-in-Time
Developments of JIT

 1960’s: Developed as Toyota Production


System by Taiichi Ohno and his colleagues
 1970’s: U.S. and European auto makers
began to apply JIT to improve quality and
productivity
 1990’s and beyond: Expanded the JIT
concept to streamline all types of operations
Definition of JIT

 A set of techniques to increase,


productivity, improve quality, and
reduce cost of an operations
 A management philosophy to promote
elimination of waste and continuous
improvement of productivity
Just-In-Time Purchasing

Just-in-time (JIT) purchasing is the purchase


of goods or materials such that a delivery
immediately precedes demand or use.

JIT Purchasing and EOQ
Model Parameters

Three factors are causing sizable reduction


in the cost of placing a purchase order (P).
1. Companies increasingly are establishing
long-run purchasing arrangements.

©2003 Prentice Hall Business Publishing, Cost Accounting 11/e, Horngren/Datar/Foster 20 - 6


JIT Purchasing and EOQ
Model Parameters

2. Companies are using electronic links,


such as the Internet, to place purchase orders.
3. Companies are increasing the use of
purchase order cards (similar to consumer
credit cards like Visa and Master Card).

Learning Objective 6

Identify the features of a


just-in-time production system.

©2003 Prentice Hall Business Publishing, Cost Accounting 11/e, Horngren/Datar/Foster 20 - 13


Just-In-Time Production Systems

Just-in-time (JIT) production systems take a


“demand pull” approach in which goods are
only manufactured to satisfy customer orders.

©2003 Prentice Hall Business Publishing, Cost Accounting 11/e, Horngren/Datar/Foster 20 - 14


Major Features of a JIT System

1. Organizing production in manufacturing cells


2. Hiring and retaining multi-skilled workers
3. Emphasizing total quality management
4. Reducing manufacturing lead time and setup time
5. Building strong supplier relationships

©2003 Prentice Hall Business Publishing, Cost Accounting 11/e, Horngren/Datar/Foster 20 - 15


Major Features of a JIT System
What information may management accountants use?

Personal observation by production


line workers and managers
Financial performance measures,
such as inventory turnover ratios
Nonfinancial performance measures
of time, inventory, and quality.

To compare JIT Costing with
Traditional Costing
TRAMS Co. manufactures cellular
telephones and uses a JIT production
system. The following transactions
occured during January.

©2003 Prentice Hall Business Publishing, Cost Accounting 11/e, Horngren/Datar/Foster 20 - 17


To compare JIT Costing with
Traditional Costing
A. Trams purchased P170,000 of raw materials.
B. All materials purchased were requisitioned
for production.
C. Trams incurred direct labor costs of P80,000
D. Actual factory overhead costs amounted
to P122,000.

To compare JIT Costing with
Traditional Costing
E. Trams applied conversion costs total
P202,000 (including direct labor cost of P80,000)
F. All telephones were completed and sold.

Learning Objective 7

Use backflush costing.

©2003 Prentice Hall Business Publishing, Cost Accounting 11/e, Horngren/Datar/Foster 20 - 20


Backflush Costing

Backflush costing describes a costing


system that delays recording some or
all of the journal entries relating to the
cycle from purchase of direct materials
to the sale of finished goods.

©2003 Prentice Hall Business Publishing, Cost Accounting 11/e, Horngren/Datar/Foster 20 - 21


Backflush Costing

Where journal entries for one or more stages


in the cycle are omitted, the journal entries
for a subsequent stage use normal or standard
costs to work backward to flush out the costs in
the cycle for which journal entries were not made.

©2003 Prentice Hall Business Publishing, Cost Accounting 11/e, Horngren/Datar/Foster 20 - 22


Learning Objective 8

Describe different ways


backflush costing can simplify
traditional job-costing systems.

©2003 Prentice Hall Business Publishing, Cost Accounting 11/e, Horngren/Datar/Foster 20 - 23


Trigger Points

The term trigger point refers to a stage in a cycle


going from purchase of direct materials to sale
of finished goods at which journal entries are
made in the accounting system.

Product Life Cycles
Target Costing
• In contrast, since the early 1970s, a
technique called target costing has been
used by some companies (especially
Japanese ones) to view the costing process
differently
Target Costing
• Target costing develops an “allowable”
product cost by analyzing market research
to estimate what the market will pay for a
product with specific characteristics. This is
expressed in the following formula:
Target Costing – ex.
• A market survey indicates that the
metropolitan area could sustain an annual
500-order volume and that customers
believe $18 is a reasonable fee per service.
The print shop manager believes that a
reasonable profit for this service is $8 per
customer order.
Target Costing – ex.
• ESP = $18 per service
• APM = $8 per customer order.

TC = ESP – APM
TC = $18 - $8
TC = $10
Target Costing – ex.
• The projected sales price for a new product (which
is still in the development stage of the product life
cycle) is $50. The company has estimated the life-
cycle cost to be $30 and the first-year cost to be
$60. On this type of product, the company requires
a $12 per unit profit. What is the target cost of the
new product?
a. $60
b. $30
c. $38
d. $42

a. target cost + profit margin = selling price
b. selling price - target cost = profit margin
c. selling price - profit margin = target cost
d. target cost - standard cost = profit margin

Value Engineering
• Value engineering is an important step in
successful product development.
• It involves a disciplined search for various
feasible combinations of resources and
methods that will increase product
functionality and reduce costs

Kaizen Costing
• Kaizen costing involves ongoing efforts for
continuous improvement to reduce product costs,
increase product quality, and/or improve the
production process after manufacturing activities
have begun.
• These cost reductions are designed to keep the
profit margin relatively stable as the product price
is reduced over the product life cycle.
