DecentralizationDecentralization
• Delegating decision-making authority• Why firms decentralize:
– Ease of gathering and using local information– Focusing on central management from detailed
operations to strategic planning– Training and motivating of segment managers to
prepare new high-level managers– Enhanced competition, exposing segments to market
forces, which allow each unit to act as an autonomous business unit
• Achieved by creating Divisions

DivisionsDivisions
• Differentiated by:– Type of product or service provided– Geographic lines
• Type of responsibility given to divisional manager– Responsibility centre is a segment of business
whose manager is accountable for specified sets of activities

Types of Responsibility CentresTypes of Responsibility Centres
• Cost centre– Manager is responsible only for costs
• Revenue centre– Manager is responsible only for sales
• Profit centre– Manager is responsible for revenues and costs
• Investment centre– Manager is responsible for revenues, costs,
and investments

Measuring the Performance of Profit centresMeasuring the Performance of Profit centres
• Preparation of segmented income statements– Two methods of computing income:
• Variable costing • Full or Absorption costing
– Methods often lead to different operating income figures

Margin and TurnoverMargin and Turnover
• Margin– Ratio of operating income to sales– Tells how many cents of operating income
result from each dollar of sales– Expresses portion of sales available for
interest, taxes, and profit
• Turnover– Divides sales by average operating assets– Tells how many dollars of sales result from
every dollar invested in operating assets

Advantages of ROIAdvantages of ROI
• Encourages managers to focus on– Relationship among:
• Sales• Expenses• Investment
– Cost efficiency– Operating asset efficiency
12-12
COPYRIGHT © 2012 Nelson Education Ltd.
Disadvantages of ROIDisadvantages of ROI
• Narrow focus on divisional profitability at expense of profitability for the overall firm
• Encourages managers to focus on short run at the expense of the long run

HOW TO Calculate Average Operating Assets, Margin, Turnover, and Return on Investment
Example: Cornerstone 12-1Example: Cornerstone 12-1
Information:SalesCost of goods sold
Gross marginSelling and admin. expense
$480,000222,000
Operating income $ 48,000
$258,000210,000
Operating Assets were $277,000 at the beginning of the year and $323,000 at the end of the year
Required:Calculate:Average operating assets, Margin, Turnover, ROI
12-14
COPYRIGHT © 2012 Nelson Education Ltd.
ExampleExample
Average operating
assets(Beginning assets + Ending assets)/2=
= ($277,000 + $323,000) / 2
= $300,000
12-15
COPYRIGHT © 2012 Nelson Education Ltd.
ExampleExample
Margin Operating Income / Sales=
= $48,000 / $480,000
= 0.10 or 10%
12-16
Turnover Sales / Average operating assets=
= $480,000 / $300,000
= 1.6
COPYRIGHT © 2012 Nelson Education Ltd.
ExampleExample
Return on Investment
(ROI)
Margin × Turnover=
= 0.10 × 1.6
= .16 or 16%
Alternatively:
Operating income / Average operating assets
= $48,000 / $300,000
= .16 or 16%

Residual IncomeResidual Income
Operating Income DMinimum rate of return ×
Average operating assets
If residual income is…
less than zero, the co. is earning less than minimum ROI
exactly zero, the co. is earning precisely minimum ROI
greater than zero, the co. is earning more than minimum ROI
Set by the company

Advantages & Disadvantages of Residual IncomeAdvantages & Disadvantages of Residual Income
• Advantages– Accept any project that earns above minimum rate
• Disadvantages– Short run orientation– Residual income is an absolute measure of
profitability• Direct comparison is difficult when level of investments
differ

Advantages of EVAAdvantages of EVA
• Encourages the right kind of behaviour• Relies on true cost of capital• Cost of capital is considered a corporate
expense and is passed along to overall income statement
• Makes investment seem free to the divisions so they want more

Transfer PricingTransfer Pricing
• Price charged for a component by the selling division to the buying division of the same company
• Sale is a revenue to the selling division• Sale is a cost to the buying division• Transfer Pricing policies:
– Market price– Cost-based transfer pricing– Negotiated transfer pricing
12-29

Example: Cornerstone 12-4Example: Cornerstone 12-4
• Alpha Division– Produces cb-117 model that is used by Delta
Division– Market price is $14– Full cost of the board is $9
• Delta Division– Heating and air-conditioning manufacturer
Information:Omni Inc. has a number of divisions
HOW TO Calculate Transfer Price
12-30
COPYRIGHT © 2012 Nelson Education Ltd.
ExampleExample
1. If Omni Inc. has a transfer pricing policy that requires transfer at full cost…
a. What will the transfer price be?
b. Do you suppose that Alpha and Delta divisions choose to transfer at that price?
2. If Omni Inc. has a transfer pricing policy that requires transfer at market price…
a. What would the transfer price be?
b. Do you suppose that Alpha and Delta divisions would choose to transfer at that price?

Advantages of EVAAdvantages of EVA
3. Now suppose that Omni Inc. allows negotiated transfer pricing and that Alpha Division can avoid $3 of selling expense by selling to Delta Division
a. Which division sets the minimum transfer price and what is it?
b. Which division sets the maximum transfer price, and what is it?
c. Do you suppose that Alpha and Delta divisions would choose to transfer somewhere in the bargaining range?
Required continued:
12-32
COPYRIGHT © 2012 Nelson Education Ltd.
ExampleExample
Transfer Pricing at Full Cost:
Full cost transfer price $9
Delta Division would like the price, but…
Alpha Division would refuse to transfer since $14 could be earned in the outside
market
12-33
COPYRIGHT © 2012 Nelson Education Ltd.
ExampleExample
Transfer Pricing at Market Price:
Market price is $14
Both Delta and Alpha divisions would be willing to transfer at that price (since neither
division would be worse off than if it bought/sold in the outside market)
12-34
COPYRIGHT © 2012 Nelson Education Ltd.
ExampleExample
Transfer Pricing at a Negotiated Transfer Price:
Minimum transfer price = $14 – $3 = $11
This price is set by Alpha division (the selling division)
Maximum transfer price = $14
This price is the market price and is set by Delta division (the buying division)
Alpha and Delta will negotiate a price somewhere between $11 and $14

Manufacturing Cycle EfficiencyManufacturing Cycle Efficiency
• Time-based operational measure• Measured as:
– Valued-added time divided by Total time• Included both value-added time and non-value
added time
• As MCE improves, cycle time decreases – Only way to improve MCE is to decrease waste and
thus reduce costs
