COSTING & COST ACCOUNTING
COSTING
• Determination of cost.
• Executed with the use of simple techniques – arithmetic process,
memorandum statement etc.

• Comprises of the concepts, principles, methodologies, practices, formats,
statements etc.
COST ACCOUNTING
“The application of costing and cost accounting principles, methods and

ascertainment of profitability”
- CIMA, UK
“Cost accounting is the application of accounting and costing principles,

saving/or excess cost incurred as compared with previous experience or
with standards”.
- H.J. Wheldon
• Formal accounting mechanism by which the cost are identified.
• Include principles, conventions, techniques and systems.
• Helps to plan and control utilization of resources.
ADVANTAGES OF COST ACCOUNTING
1. Ascertainment of cost: Cost information is the basis for
determination of the price of product or service.
2. Cost control: Scientific judgment of the cost helps to have an
effective control over the expenses to be incurred by a business.
3. Cost reduction: Reduction of cost refers to permanent reduction
in the cost without compromising on the quality.
4. Assisting management: Decision making is a very important
process for the top-level management and its activities.
DISADVANTAGES OF COST ACCOUNTING
1. Lack of uniform procedures: Cost accounting lacks uniform
practices and processes and unified processes and practices.
2. Varies from industry to industry: Practices of cost accounting vary
from industry to industry.
3. Cost accounting practices are costly: Implementation of process,
procedures and methods are cost accounting is a costly affair for
the business.
4. Too many concepts and conventions: Has too many concepts and
conventions.
5. Data centric subject: Depends on the information.
COST CENTRE
“A production or service, function, activity or item of equipment whose
costs may be attributed to cost units. A cost center is the smallest
organizational sub-unit for which separate cost allocation is
attempted.”
- CIMA, UK
• Smallest segment of an organization/ department.
• Used for collection of cost.
• Improves reporting of cost.
• Helps in easier monitoring of cost.
• Increases accountability.
COST CENTRE
Two types of cost centers:
1. Production Cost Centers
• Cost centres directly involved in the manufacturing operations.
2. Service Cost Centers
• Service cost centres are incidental to the production process.
• Do not produce products directly.
• Any cost which is incurred or charged to service cost centres must
be reapportioned to production cost centres.
COST UNIT
• Refers to the unit of quantity of
product, service or time (or
combination of these) in relation to
which costs may be ascertained or
expressed.
• Refers to the final products
manufactured by the organization.
• The unit of output (or a unit of
service provided) which absorbs the
cost center’s overhead cost.
Product / Service Cost Unit
Shoes Pair
Cotton Bale
Steel Tonne
Crude oil Barrel
Hotel Room rent / day
Carpet Square foot
CLASSIFICATION BASED ON INDENTIFIABILITY
Based on traceability to the cost center/ process/ work job/ cost unit,
cost can be classified as DIRECT and INDIRECT COST.
• Direct cost is directly related to a cost unit/ process or
department. It is convenient to identify and specific to the
manufacturing or production process.
• Indirect Cost is incurred for the benefit of direct cost process /
departments. It cannot be traced or identified directly and benefits
several departments/ processes.
CLASSIFICATION BASED ON ACTIVITY
Based on changes in level of activity or volume of production cost
can be classified as FIXED COST, VARIABLE COST and SEMI VARIABLE
COST.
• Fixed Cost is the total cost remains the same irrespective of level
of production. For fixed cost, cost / unit reduces with increase in
level of output.
• Variable Cost is the cost that varies with the level of activity. For
variable Cost / unit remains the same, total cost will change with
output.
• Semi variable Cost is the cost includes both fixed and variable
CLASSIFICATION BASED ON CONTROL
Based on regulation of the cost, cost can be classified as
Controllable and Non-controllable Cost.
• Controllable Cost is cost that can be regulated by the
management authority.
• Non-controllable Cost is cost that cannot be influenced by the
management authority.
CLASSIFICATION BASED ON TIME
Based on the time of computation of the cost, it can be classified as
HISTORICAL COST and PREDETERMINED COST.
• Historical Cost is cost ascertained after occurrence. It is
determined based on the occurrence and can be verified based on
the records.
• Predetermined Cost is estimated costs are called as
predetermined cost and are computed in advance.
CLASSIFICATION BASED ON NORMALITY
Based on occurrence of the cost it can be classified as NORMAL
COST and ABNORMAL COST.
• Normal Cost is cost that are normal for a given level of output and
are routine part of production cost. It is charged to Trading
account.
• Abnormal cost is cost that are not usual to occur at a given level
of output and is not a part of the routine production cost. It is
charged to P/L Account
CLASSIFICATION OF COST

products.
• Each batch is a quantity of identical units.
• Applied when production is continuous.
• On completion, the total cost and number
of units in the batch is calculated.
• Then, the unit cost, selling price and
profitability of each unit is computed.
Example: Process food industry.
METHODS OF COSTING – PROCESS COSTING

group of products.
• Finished using more product-specific
procedures.
• Applicable to the more complex
manufacturing environments.
Example: Manufacture of variants of same model of
car.
METHODS OF COSTING – UNIT COSTING
• Also known as output or single output
costing.
• Followed in businesses which produces
a single product on large scale
continuously
• Products are having uniform
homogeneous character.

• Involves different or multiple methods of
costing.
Example: Plane manufacture
ELEMENTS OF COST
