Don’t be alarmed by how long the definitions on my flashcards are. I like to restate formulas in terms of abbreviations (e.g., NI = Net Income), just because it sticks in my head more. And for long-winded formulas and formulas with similar numerators and denominators like Dividend Payout Ratio, it’s easier to remember DPS / EPS than “Dividends per share divided by earnings per share.”

I recommend viewing the flashcards on Quizlet and testing yourself. Remember you can use the following shortcuts to navigate between the flashcards. Some may not be available if you’re not the editor or owner of the flashcard set:

I’m on Quizlet!

I started tinkering with Quizlet about a week ago and here’s what I’ve completed so far, in between working on homework assignments and quizzes that take me anywhere from three to six hours to complete. I’ve always had the account, but I never used it until now.

Quizlet has an awesome feature that allows me to bulk-import flashcards on an Excel spreadsheet or Word doc, but for now, I’m making these cards manually, as seeing them in a flashcard format on the screen somehow helps me better with memory retention than creating an enormous CSV file. I also noticed that, while I was creating the cards through a CSV file, the first impulse I had was to take the lazy (i.e. programmer’s) route, which is to CTRL + C and CTRL + V all my vocabulary terms into that sucker. Which totally defeats the purpose of mindful learning.

Yes, studying is a type of mindful meditation. Think about it–you have to sit in the same position for anywhere from half and hour to half a day, without moving much, and without allowing distractions to linger too long in your mind.

Fundamental Manufacturing Accounting Formulas

While it’s vital to understand concepts in managerial accounting, sometimes it’s hard to visualize an entire income statement in your head, especially when you have under 1.5 minutes to answer each question on the CMA exam.

Remember these quick and dirty formulas:

  1. Direct materials used = Beginning materials inventory + Purchases – Ending materials inventory
  2. Total manufacturing costs charged = Direct materials used + Direct labor + Factory overhead
  3. Cost of Goods Manufactured = Beginning work-in-process + Total manufacturing costs – Ending work-in-process
  4. Cost of goods sold = Cost of goods manufactured – Ending finished goods inventory

Mini-formulas:

    1. DMused = BIM + P – EIM
    2. TMCcharged = DMused + DL + OHFactory
    3. COGM = BWIP + TMC – EWIP
    4. COGS = COGM – EIFG
