一、 Model for Making Tactical DecisionsStep 1. Recognize and define the problem.

ContinuedContinuedContinuedContinued

Increase capacity for warehousing and production.Step 2. Identify alternatives as possible solutions to

the problem; eliminate alternatives that are clearly not feasible.

1. Build new facility2. Lease larger facility; sublease current facility3. Lease additional facility4. Lease warehouse space5. Buy shafts and brushings; free up needed space

Model for Making Tactical Decisions

Lease warehouse space:

Variable production costs$345,000

Warehouse lease135,000

Buy shafts and bushings externally:

Purchase price$460,000

Step 3. Identify the costs and benefits associated with each feasible alternative. Classify costs and benefits as relevant or irrelevant, and eliminate irrelevant ones from consideration.

alternative.

Model for Making Tactical DecisionsStep 5. Assess qualitative (non-cost) factors.

1. Quality of external suppliers

2. Reliability of external suppliers

3. Price stability

4. Labor relations and community image

Step 6. Make the decision.

Quality of shafts 轴 and brushing 电刷 is significantly lower

Not reliable

Continue to produce shafts and bushings internally; lease warehouse

Relevant costs are future( 未来 ) costs that differ across alternatives. A cost

must not only be a future cost but most also differ between alternatives.

* 短期经营决策的有关概念 相关收入——与特定方案相联系,在短期经营中予以考虑的方案 相关成本——与特定方案相联系,能对特定决策产生影响成本

相关成本

增量成本——某方案的单位变动成本与相关业务量乘积 机会成本——在经济决策中应由中选的最优方案负担的按所放弃次优方案潜在收益计算的那部分资源损失 专属成本——归属某特定方案的固定成本或混合成本 加工成本

可分成本

可避免成本

可延缓成本

1. Make or Buy 自制与外购

2. Keep or Drop 取舍

3. Special Order 特殊订单

4. Sell or Process Further 销售或进一步加工

5. Product Mix 产品组合

归纳为以下几种方法

战术的方

单位资源贡献边际法

贡献边际总额分析法

差别损益分析法

相关损益分析法

相关成本分析法

成本差别

1 单位资源贡献边际=单位贡献边际/单位产品 资源消耗定额 ——哪个指标大,哪个指标优

2 相关收入不为零、相关成本全部为变动成本、不涉及已承诺成本

3 两个相关排斥方案差别损益取舍

4 适用多方案差别损益分析

5 相关收入为零,哪个方案相关成最低、哪个方案最优

6 两方案相关固定成本 (FC) 与单位变动成本 (@VC) 相矛盾,成本无差别点业务 量 = 两 方 案 相 关 固 定 成 本 之 差 / 两 方 案 单 位 变 动 成 本 之 差    x0=(a1-a2)/(b2-b1)

17 -16 以 Cost Indifference Point 解决新产品决策 Background: ABC Co. decisides to produce Component A , with either Option B or C. In Option B, the fixed cost is to be $240000 , and the variable cost per unit is $80. In Option C, the relevant fixed cost is $16000 , variable cost per unit is $120Solution:Suppose alternative B’s FC=a1 , @FC=b1 ;Option C’s FC=a2 , VC per unit= b2

since , a1=240000>a2=160000; b1=80<b2=120 , which means they conflict each other to some extent. So we may apply the “Cost Indifference Point” method. CIP = (a1-a2)/(b1-b2) = (240000-160000) ÷(120-80) =2000 unitsTherefore : when the output of A is less then 2000units , Option C is preferrable ; when A’s requirement is larger than 2000 units , Option B is a good choice.

2. Target Costing and Pricing

Page 39: 17 -1 Tactical Decision Making 战术决策 ( 短期决策 ) CHAPTER6.

17 -39 定价决策 一、定价决策分析的范围及应当考虑因素

垄断价格:完全自由竞争价格和企业可控制价格定价时可考虑商品价性,成本的消耗水平,商品质量供求关系与竞争形,价格的弹性、所处周期等

二、以成本为导向 (cost-based)的定价方 法1、总成本定价法:价格=(预计总成本+目标利润)/预计

产销数量2、收益比率定价:  完全成本法:价格=单位产品成本/(1-销售毛利率)  变动成本法:价格=单位变动成本/(1-贡献边际率)3、成本加成 (markup) 定价法  价格=单位产品成本+加成额

三、以需求导向的定价方法边际收入=边际成本、边际利润=0

2. Target Costing and Pricing

Target costing is a method of determining the cost of a product or service based on the price (target price 目标价格 ) that customers are willing( 愿意 ) to pay.

This is referred to as price-driven costing.

Legal Aspects of PricingLegal Aspects of Pricing

Predatory pricing 掠夺性定价法 . The practice of setting prices below cost for the purpose of injuring or eliminating competitors.

Price discrimination 价格歧视 . Charging different prices to different customers for essentially the same product.

The Robinson-Patman Act( 法律 ) is the most potent weapon against price discrimination, but it doesn’t

cover services and intangibles.
