Documentation
Definition
Value of the percentage variance between target costs and control costs calculated by the system, against the target costs.
Use
The control costs are compared with the target costs to calculate the variances.
Prerequisites
You must calculate the work in process before you can calculate the variances.
Dependencies
The system calculates the target costs and the control costs automatically when is calculates the variances.
The control costs are calculated in different ways depending on the variances to be calculated.
In the calculation of total variances and production variances, the control costs are the actual costs less the work in process and scrap. In the calculation of planning variances, the control costs are calculated on the basis of the preliminary cost estimate for the order. For the calculation of total variances and production variances, the reference base is the actual quantity delivered to stock. For the calculation of planning variances, the reference base is the planned order quantity.
Deducting the work in process and scrap from the actual costs ensures that only true variances are calculated.
Target costs are calculated so that the calculation of variances between the planned costs and the control costs uses the same basis. Target cost calculation also depends on the variances to be calculated. For example, for the calculation of the total variance the standard cost estimate for the material is used as a basis to calculate the target costs. Variable costs of the standard cost estimate are referenced to the order quantity, while fixed costs of the standard cost estimate (such as setup costs) are used directly as target costs.
