DEPARTMENTAL ACCOUNTING
DEPARTMENTAL ACCOUNTING -- EXPENSE ACCOUNTS -- DEPARTMENTS --
PURCHASES -- INVENTORIES -- STORE ACCOUNTS -- LABOR CHARGED TO
DEPARTMENTS AND SUB-DIVISIONS -- GENERAL PRINCIPLES.
=Why and How.=--The large packing houses are usually operated on a
departmental basis, so that monthly or yearly, a balance can be drawn
off showing the profit and loss of each department. There is a great
advantage in handling a large business in this manner, for it is
probable that while in the aggregate the house is making money, there
might be departments that are losing money continuously without being
detected unless each one is put on an individual basis.
Each department is made a separate business carrying its proportion
of the divisible expenses, buying the raw product and supplies going
into the manufacture and receiving credit for all sales effected in the
same manner as if owned by an individual and the business conducted at
some remote point. The raw material transferred from one department
to another is charged. At the end of each period, or weekly, those in
charge, put a price on all the different products transferred from one
department to another, generally using the market price which could be
obtained if sold outside.
This method of analysis frequently shows that the department has lost
money. It may develop that some other manufacturer has developed a
field wherein he can pay a price for the raw product in excess of its
value as used in the department and that it should be sold for cash
rather than to use it for manufacturing purposes.
=Expense Account.=--There are a number of expense accounts that
are borne upon an allocation, that is, apportioned among several
departments, perhaps by percentage of sales, units in use, tonnage or
other means devised by the ingenuity of the accountant, all with a view
to an equitable division. These embrace, for example, Steam-Expense,
which, as its name implies, is the cost of producing steam subdivided
into four general uses,--cooking, power, lighting and refrigerating.
Each made up of all items going into its cost. This provides a total of
four items.
Administrative or Executive Expenses embrace the cost of office,
telegraph, telephone, stationery, printing, advertising, insurance,
interest and all other items of general expense. There are also some
general plant expenses that are itemized for other purposes that may be
included in this ledger account, or divided upon some basis and charged
to the departmental ledger account.
=Department.=--The parent products are cattle, sheep and hogs. These
are subdivided into accounts about as follows:
_Cattle._ _Hogs._ _Sheep._
Beef Fresh Pork Mutton
Hides Sweet Pickle Skins
Oleo Dry Salt
Casings Lard Refining
Tallow Sausage
Fertilizer Smoke House
Bones
Tongue
Tripe and Pigs Feet
Beef Cutting
Beef Cellars
Veal
Where one subdivision, such as Tongue, embraces several kinds of
products, like sheep, beef and pork, it is operated as one department
and not further sub-divided. Usually the outside departments are
separated so that the departmental results are ascertainable. The
divisions are carried on indefinitely depending upon the size of the
business.
=Purchases.=--All purchases of every nature that can be charged
directly so are distributed from purchase vouchers. The departmental
manager and foreman have a direct interest in these and usually look
out for all supplies and like expense items.
=Inventories.=--An actual physical inventory is taken at the
terminating date of each month or period, making a record of the
items of every nature on hand that is a liquid asset and not usually
including interests which are charged off as an item of expense.
=Store Account.=--To avoid duplication of purchases of material used,
it is usual to have a general store in which these are carried and
dispersed to operating departments on order. This store account usually
includes the distribution of mechanical labor, such as pipe fitters,
carpenters, machinists and labor of similar classes, being charged out
to the department requiring their services.
=Labor.=--Plant labor is a large item of the expense of manufacture
and one that is controllable within measure by the management. There
are certain standards of divisions recognized by practice and for
such departments if the business be large it is well to have a weekly
analysis and a cost per unit developed. For a lesser business, monthly
will serve. This expense item keeps the departmental men on the alert
and serve as a basis of distribution of labor for departmental ledger
purposes.

Transcriber’s Notes
The language used in this e-text is that used in the source document.
Inconsistencies and unusual spelling and style have been retained.
Differences in wording between lists of subjects, the table of
contents and the text have not been rectified. Errors or unclear data
in calculations and (table) data have not been corrected except when
the source of the error was clear; such corrections are mentioned
under Changes made below.
Pages 118-125 and 267-272: the unusual use of quote marks has not
been standardised.
Page 224, table: the column “per cent” contains the decimal fraction,
not the percentage.
Page 241: reference letters A and B are not visible in the
illustration.
Page 289, “Shank cut off above the knee joint ...: the closing quote
mark is missing.
Page 419, Seasoning Formula: Saltpetre is mentioned twice (in
different quantities) in the source document.
Page 461 ff.: Deviations from the alphabetical order of entries have
not been corrected.
Changes made
Illustrations and tables have been moved out of text paragraphs.
Footnotes have been moved to directly underneath the paragraph to
which they refer.
Some obvious minor typographical and punctuation errors have been
corrected silently. In tables, the ditto-symbol has been replaced
with the dittoed text and some data have been re-aligned for
consistency and legibility. Some tables have been split or otherwise
re-arranged for legibility and to fit the available width.
Temperatures (°F and ° F) and densities (°B and ° B) have been
standardised to ° F and ° B, dimensions and multiplications to m × n,
salt petre and variants to saltpetre.
