Finance and Accounts

Key Terms

Costs
• Fixed (Indirect/Overheads) – are not influenced
by the amount produced but can change in the long run
e.g., insurance costs, administration, rent, some types
of labour costs (salaries), some types of energy costs,
equipment and machinery, buildings, advertising
and promotion costs
• Variable (Direct) – vary directly with the amount
produced, e.g., raw material costs, some direct labour
costs, some direct energy costs
• Semi-fixed – where costs not directly attributable to
either of the above, for example, some types of energy
and labour costs

Costs
• Total Costs (TC) = Fixed Costs (FC)+
Variable Costs (VC)
• Average Costs = TC/Output (Q)
– AC (unit costs) show the amount it costs
to produce one unit of output on average
• Marginal Costs (MC) – the cost of
producing one extra or one fewer units
of production
– MC = TCn – TCn-1

Revenue
• Total Revenue – also known as turnover,
sales revenue or ‘sales’ = Price x Quantity Sold
• TR = P x Q
• Price – may be a variety of different prices
for different products in the portfolio
• Quantity – could be global sales

Profit
• Profit (Π) = TR – TC
• Normal Profit – the minimum amount
required to keep a business
in a particular line of production
• Abnormal/Supernormal Profit – the
amount over and above the amount
needed to keep a business
in its current line of production

Break Even

Break Even
• Occurs where Total Costs = Total
Revenue
– Start-up costs – fixed costs
– Running costs – variable costs
– Revenue stream depends on price charged
– ‘Low’ price – need to sell more to break-even
– ‘High’ price – lower level of sales required before
breaking even
Fixed Costs
• Break-Even Point = ---------------
Contribution

Purpose of Accounts

Purpose of Accounts
• Provide information for stakeholders –
customers, shareholders, suppliers, etc.
• Provides the opportunity for the
business to monitor its own activities
• Provides transparency to enable
the firm to attract investment
• Reduces the chance for fraud –
not 100% successful!!

Profit and Loss Account - Flow

Balance Sheet - Snapshot

Balance Sheet
• A snapshot of the firm’s position
at a point in time
• Shows what a company owns (assets)
and what it owes (liabilities)
• Balance Sheet shows what assets a
company has (use of funds) and where
the money came from to acquire those
assets (source of funds)

i.e. physical
items or
intangible – i.e.
brand name,
goodwill.
Current Assets:
assets that are used
up during
production and
which are likely to
yield cash in the

Subtracted
from the
assets are the
money the
company
owes to
creditors –
suppliers for
example
And to those
who are longer
term creditors
– loans,
mortgage on
property etc
This leaves us
with ‘Net
Assets’
The funds to
acquire these
assets must have
come from
somewhere – the
next section tells
us where it came
from.
It can come
from share
capital and
from retained
profit (profit
and loss
account)
The total
capital
employed must
be the same as
the sum of the
net assets –
hence the term
‘balance’ sheet!

Balance Sheet
• A guide to the structure of the assets
of a company
• A guide to the level of gearing –
the ratio of loan to share capital
• Gives a guide as to the degree of
working capital – the amount
the company has to be able to pay
its everyday debts (current assets –
current liabilities)
• Shows the total value of a firm
at that moment in time
