• Cost Accounting is the classification, recording and
appropriate allocation of expenditure for the
determination of the products or services, and the
suitable presentation of data for the purpose of
control and management.

Preparation of Cost Sheet
• It is a document that provides of the assembly of an
estimated detail cost in respect of cost center and cost
units.
• It may be prepared on the basis of actual data or on
the basis of estimated data.
• To find out the unit cost of the product, the statement
of cost place pivotal role in determining the cost of
production, cost of good sold, cost of sales and selling
price of the product at every stage.

Classification of Cost
1) Direct Cost Classification
>> Direct Material
>> Direct Labour
>> Direct Expenses
Direct Materials + Direct Labor + Direct Expenses = Prime cost
8
Direct Material
• Direct: traceable to one particular process, job or product
– identified with each unit of product
• Example: manufacturing an apparel
• Cloth, collar, buttons, cufflinks, thread
• Primary packing material (e.g., carton, wrapping,
cardboard, boxes, etc.)
• Fuel, lubricating oil etc for operating & maintenance of
machine
• Small tools
• Materials used for repairs & maintenance
9
Direct Labour
• Inspectors
• Supervisors
• Internal transport staff
• Storekeeper, maintenance staff
10
Direct Expense
• Expenses leading to a job or contract
• Traveling expenses for negotiation
• Special pattern, design
11
Indirect Cost Classification
Manufacturing Overhead (OH)
All of costs of manufacturing excluding direct materials and
direct labor
a. Indirect Materials (IM) – Materials, used in the
manufacturing of products, which are difficult to trace to
particular products in an economical way
• Glue, nails, cleaning supplies
b. Indirect Labor (IL) – Labor, used in the manufacturing of
products, which is difficult to trace to particular products
in an economical way
• Wages for maintenance workers, factory supervisor’s
salary, idle time
c. All other types of manufacturing overhead
• Depreciation on machinery, depreciation on factory
building, factory insurance, utilities for factory

Classification of cost
1) General Classification
2) Technical Classification
By function
By Variability
By controllability
By normality
By time
For Planning and control
For managerial decision 17
PRODUCT COSTS AND PERIOD COSTS
• Product cost is that cost which is regarded as asset when
incurred, but becomes a part of cost of goods sold when
the product is sold. For MUL, all manufacturing cost is
Product cost. (Raw material to WIP to Finished goods)
For a service sector unit, absence of inventory means all
are period costs.
18
Function
• Production Cost
• Administration Cost
• Selling Cost
• Distribution Cost
19
Normality
• Normal Cost
• Abnormal Cost
Variability
• Fixed Cost
• Variable Cost
• Semi Variable Cost
20
Controllability
• Controllable Cost
• Uncontrollable Cost
Time
• Historical Cost
• Pre determined Cost
21
For Planning an Control
• Standard Cost
• Budget Cost
• Marginal Cost
• Sunk Cost
22
Cost Ascertainment
• Product Centre
• Service Centre
• Profit Centre

Cost Classification for Predicting Cost
Behavior
• Volume index
• Cost Behaviors
Fixed costs
Variable costs
Mixed costs
• Average unit costs
27
Volume Index
• Def: The unit measure
used to define
“volume”
• Examples:
– Automobile – “miles”
driven
– Generating plant –
“kWh” produced
– Stamping machine –
“parts” stamped
28
Fixed Costs
• Def: The costs of
providing a company’s
basic operating
capacity
• Cost behavior: Remain
constant over the
relevant range
29
Variable Costs
• Def: Costs that vary
depending on the level
of production or sales
• Cost behavior:
Increase or decrease
proportionally
according to the level
of volume
30
Average Unit Cost
• Def: activity cost per
unit basis
• Cost Behaviors:
– Fixed cost per unit
varies with changes in
volume.
– Variable cost per unit
of volume is a
constant.
31
Differential (Incremental) Costs
• Def: Costs that
represent the
differences in total
costs, which results
from selecting one
alternative instead of
other
32
Opportunity Costs
• Def: The potential benefit
that is given up as you
seek an alternative course
of action
• Example: When you
decide to pursue a college
degree, your opportunity
cost would include the 4-
year’s potential earnings
foregone.
33
Sunk Costs
• Def:Cost that has already
been incurred by past
actions
• Economic Implications:
Not relevant to future
decisions
• Example: $500 spent to
replace tires last year—
not relevant in making
selling decision in the
future
