1、Spoilage,Rework,and ScrapCHAPTER 182024/4/15 周一1TerminologySpoilage,rework,and scrap have distinctive definitions in cost accounting that may not be the definition commonly used.P510(639)It is important that these terms be used properly,as each receives a different accounting treatment.2024/4/15 周一2
2、Terminology,conts.Spoilage is units of production that do not meet the specifications required by customers for good units and are discarded or sold at reduced prices.Rework is units of production that do not meet the specifications required by customers but are repaired and sold as good finished un
3、its.Spoiled units can be reworked,but only at a considerable costScrap is residual material that results from manufacturing a product.It has low or zero sales value.2024/4/15 周一3SpoilageDifferent types of Spoilage P511(639)Spoilage is divided into two types:normal spoilage and abnormal spoilage.Norm
4、al spoilage is spoilage inherent in the production process.It is viewed arising even in an efficient manufacturing process.Typically,normal spoilage is included as a part of the cost of good units manufactured.Units considered normal spoilage in a process-costing system are counted in computing comp
5、leted units.2024/4/15 周一4Spoilage,conts.Abnormal spoilage is spoilage that is not considered a part of the production process and does not arise under efficient operating conditions.Abnormal spoilage is regarded as avoidable and controllable.To highlight the abnormal spoilage,companies calculate the
6、 units of abnormal spoilage and record the cost in a“Loss from Abnormal Spoilage”account,which appears as a separate line item in the income statement.Some companies regard all spoilage as abnormal in order to make all spoilage visible.2024/4/15 周一5Spoilage,conts.Illustration:in January 2008,mendonz
7、a incurs costs of$615000 to produce 20500 units.of these 20500 units,20000 units are good units and 500 units are spoiled units.of 500 spoiled units,400 units are spoiled because the injection molding machine are unable to manufacture good casings 100%of the time.the remaining 100 units are spoiled
8、because of machine breakdown and operation errors.2024/4/15 周一6Spoilage,conts.2024/4/15 周一7Accounting for SpoilageAccounting for spoilage aims to determine the magnitude of spoilage costs and to distinguish between costs of normal and abnormal spoilageTo manage,control and reduce spoilage costs,they
