The document discusses the conversion cycle in traditional production processes and accounting. It describes the key elements and procedures of the physical production system and cost accounting information system. These include production scheduling, bills of materials, route sheets, move tickets, and material requisitions that control inventory and track costs. Shortcomings of traditional accounting in lean manufacturing are also noted.
Report AIS chapter 7- Conversion Cycle
- 2. • Elements and procedures of a traditional production process • Data flows and procedures in a traditional cost accounting system • Accounting controls in a traditional environment • Principles, operating features, and technologies of lean manufacturing • Shortcomings of traditional accounting methods in the world-class environment • Key features of activity based costing and value stream accounting • Information systems of lean manufacturing and world- class companies
- 3. • Transforms input resources, raw materials, labor, and overhead into finished products or services for sale • Consists of two subsystems: • Physical activities – the production system • Information activities – the cost accounting system
- 4. Revenue Cycle Expenditure Cycle Purchase Requisitions Marketing System Conversion Cycle Sales Forecast Sales Orders Labor Usage General Ledger and Financial Reporting System Work In Process Finished Goods
- 5. • Continuous Processing creates a homogeneous product through a continuous series of standard procedures. • Batch Processing produces discrete groups (batches) of products. • Make-to-Order Processing involves the fabrication of discrete products in accordance with customer specifications.
- 6. • consists of four basic processes: •plan and control production •perform production operations •maintain inventory control •perform cost accounting
- 8. • Production Schedule is the formal plan and authorization to begin production. • Bill of Materials (BOM) specifies the types and quantities of the raw materials and subassemblies used to produce a single finished good unit. • Route Sheet - details the production path a particular batch will take in the manufacturing process • sequence of operations • time allotted at each station • Move Ticket records work done in each work center and authorizes the movement of the batch. • Materials Requisition authorizes the inventory warehouse to release raw materials for use in the production process.
- 11. • Very simple too use, but assumptions are not always valid • demand is known and constant • ordering lead time is known and constant • total cost per year of placing orders decreases as the order quantities increase • carrying costs of inventory increases as quantity of orders increases • no quantity discounts
