Techniques of Managerial Accounting
1. Margin Analysis: Margin analysis focuses on the incremental benefits of optimising manufacturing. Margin analysis is one of the most fundamental and important tools in management accounting. It comprises the computation of the breakeven point, which defines the best sales mix for the company’s offerings.
2. Constraint Analysis: The analysis of a company’s production lines identifies major bottlenecks, the inefficiencies caused by these bottlenecks, and the impact on the company’s capacity to generate revenue and profits.
3. Capital Budgeting: Capital budgeting is focused with analysing the information required to make capital spending choices. Managerial accountants calculate the net present value (NPV) and the internal rate of return (IRR) in capital budgeting analysis to assist managers in making new capital budgeting decisions.
4. Product Costing and Inventory Value: Inventories valuation entails determining and analysing the actual costs connected with a company’s products and inventories. In general, the process entails the computation and allocation of overhead charges, as well as the assessment of direct costs associated with the cost of goods sold (COGS).
5. Forecasting and Trend Analysis: Trend analysis and forecasting are primarily concerned with identifying patterns and trends in product costs, as well as identifying unusual deviations from anticipated values and the reasons for such deviations.
