| costing methods in accounting: Lies, Damned Lies, and Cost Accounting Reginald Tomas Lee, 2016-02-18 This book introduces capacity management, describes cash flow dynamics, and offers ideas about how to manage both Business leaders rely on accounting data such as profit and calculated costs as a guide to whether they are making money. Should they? Accounting was designed to report financial performance not model cash flow. Accruals can disconnect cash flow from the timing and extent to which it occurs. Statements of cash flow do not provide insight into what was bought and how efficiently it was used. Costs and profits are not absolute, they change based on the model you use to calculate them. To manage cash, you must manage what you buy and how effectively you use it. The largest expenditure for most companies is capacity; space, labor, materials, equipment, and technology. Unless you model and manage capacity effectively, you will not achieve the cash flow results you seek. This book introduces capacity management, describes cash flow dynamics, and offers ideas about how to manage both. After reading it, you be able to see, understand, and manage cash flow as never before. |

| costing methods in accounting: True Cost Accounting for Food Barbara Gemmill-Herren, Lauren E. Baker, Paula A. Daniels, 2021-06-22 This book explains how True Cost Accounting is an effective tool we can use to address the pervasive imbalance in our food system. Calls are coming from all quarters that the food system is broken and needs a radical transformation. A system that feeds many yet continues to create both extreme hunger and diet-related diseases, and one which has significant environmental impacts, is not serving the world adequately. This volume argues that True Cost Accounting in our food system can create a framework for a systemic shift. What sounds on the surface like a practice relegated to accountants is ultimately a call for a new lens on the valuation of food and a new relationship with the food we eat, starting with the reform of a system out of balance. From the true cost of corn, rice and water, to incentives for soil health, the chapters economically compare conventional and regenerative, more equitable farming practices in and food system structures, including taking an unflinching look at the true cost of cheap labour. Overall, this volume points towards the potential for our food system to be more human-centred than profit-centred and one that has a more respectful relationship to the planet. It sets forth a path forward based on True Cost Accounting for food. This path seeks to fix our current food metrics, in policy and in practice, by applying a holistic lens that evaluates the actual costs and benefits of different food systems, and the impacts and dependencies between natural systems, human systems, agriculture and food systems. This volume is essential reading for professionals and policymakers involved in developing and reforming the food system, as well as students and scholars working on food policy, food systems and sustainability. |

| costing methods in accounting: Cost and Management Accounting Fundamentals Ibrahim Ganiyu, 2018-01-19 Topics covered: uses of cost and management accounting information, Cost classification, overhead costs allocation and apportionment, Traditional costing methods (marginal and absorption costing methods), Activities based costing (ABC) method, Cost behaviour and statistical techniques (high-low method and regression analysis techniques), Accounting for materials (order levels, EOQ, EBQ, FIFO, LIFO WA), Accounting for labour, Job and batch costing, Process costing, joint-products and by-product costing, Short-term decision making: relevant costing technique, Short-term decision making: limiting factor (ranking method and linear programming), Cost-volume-analysis (CVP analysis), Pricing decision, Long-term decision-making techniques (payback methods, ARR, NPV and IRR), Budgeting, Standard costing and basic variance analysis. My experience as a university lecturer in multi-cultural environments (England) shows that most students always dread this area of their study before the classes' start, which actually surprises me because I found this area of study interesting during my study days and as a lecturer. But quite remarkably, at the end of the semester, with my systematic analysis, my students end up liking the course, and it becomes a favourite course to them in all institutions where I have worked. Hence I decided to publish my lecture notes in the form of a textbook. The ultimate aim of this book is to: Provide students with knowledge, skills and confidence required in understanding cost and management accounting for both accounting and non-accounting students at the university degree and professional examination levels. The primary focus is to discuss fundamentals of costing to form a solid foundation to management accounting courses at undergraduate, post-graduate and professional examination levels. The areas covered are presented in clear English language with clear and helpful layouts and formats on how to solve questions on a systematic and consistent basis. Accounting students hoping to progress to professional examinations after university often faced a daunting challenge. From my experience of delivering lectures on ACCA and CIMA professional studies, graduates do struggle with and are even afraid to start the professional exams. Some good and confident graduates that start their professional exam are often disappointed to know that they are short of knowledge required at that level and always have to do extra work. It is also the aim of this textbook to bridge the gap between academic and professional studies by explaining fundamental rules and principles in a more practical manner using professional examination questions to illustrate all the fundamental knowledge discussed, hereby exposing students to professional exams and linking their academic knowledge to the professional environment. I sincerely hope that this book will be of great help to undergraduate, post-graduate and professional exam students. |
