Definition

Formula defining how target costs are calculated.

Formula 1:

Formula 1 is valid for activity-dependent costs not occurring due to internal activity allocations. Value-based evaluation stands in the foreground for these costs, even when additional quantities are entered during planning.

  • Target quantity fxd = Plan quantity fxd
  • Target quantity vbl = Plan quantity vbl X Operating rate

  • Target costs fxd = Plan costs fxd
  • Target costs vbl = Plan costs vbl X Operating rate

Formula 2:

Formula 2 is valid for credit rates from internal activity allocations.

  • Target costs fxd = Plan costs fxd X Operating rate
  • Target costs vbl = Plan costs vbl X Operating rate

    If the activity type of a cost center or business process is the sender during Predistribution_of_ fixed_costs, then the fixed costs are not corrected with the operating rate. In this case:

  • Target costs fxd = Plan costs fxd

Formula 3:

Formula 3 is valid for all activity-independent costs.

  • Target costs fxd = Plan costs fxd
  • Target costs vbl = Plan costs vbl

Formula 4:

Formula 4 is valid for activity-dependent costs from internal activity allocations. These costs are planned on a quantity basis because the allocation takes place based on quantities.

  • Target quantity fxd = Plan quantity fxd
  • Target quantity vbl = Plan quantity vbl X Operating rate
  • Target costs fxd = Target quantity fxd x Activity price fxd +
    Target quantity vbl X Activity price fxd +
    Target quantity fxd X Activity price vbl
  • Target costs vbl = Target quantity vbl X Activity price vbl

    Because variable target quantities enter into the target costs, these can be varied by means of the operating rate.

    If the fixed costs of the activity allocation were allocated using Predistribution_of_fixed_ costs, the target costs are calculated as follows:

  • Target costs fxd = Plan costs fxd
  • Target costs var. = Plan costs var. * operating rate

    In this case the fixed costs can no longer be dependent upon the operating rate.
