Study Notes

Cost Carriers: Concept and Classes

  • Cost carriers are the recipients of costs, used for the accumulation and allocation of costs in a company
  • Cost carriers accumulate all the consumption of material and intangible goods during the production process.
  • Full-Costing has one cost carrier, the production valued at total cost (full cost carrier)
  • Direct-Costing has multiple carriers: production valued at variable cost (variable cost carrier), and a carrier of the fixed cost
  • Full Costing Evolved has multiple carriers: production valued at intrinsic, or production cost, and the cost carrier to reintegrate.
  • Cost carriers include finished goods, semi-finished goods, production in progress, subproducts and waste.

Classes of Cost Carriers

  • Finished Production: Includes products produced by a company for sale
  • Semi-finished Production: Products that are still in the process of being made into a final product and aren't yet ready for sale.
  • Production in progress:Products are undergoing work but are not yet finished
  • Subproducts: Products created incidentally during the manufacture of a main product, often with some intrinsic value
  • Waste: Materials created as a byproduct of production which have no marketable value and may involve costs to be disposed of.

Methods of Calculating Costs: Division and Supplements

  • Splitting Method: Calculates a unit cost by dividing the total cost by the number of units. Can be globalized or differentiated
  • Pure Splitting Method: Used when a single product type is produced without any ongoing production during the accounting period.
  • Application Differential: Used in organic cost systems where one product treatment (or several with similar treatment) is performed. Unit cost is the sum of all the unit costs of all the centers in the company.

Methods of Calculating Costs: Joint Production

  • Joint Production: Occurs when several main products are created from the same resources.
  • Joint Production with Byproducts: Produces several main products plus secondary products with some value
  • Joint Production with Co-products: Produces multiple main products or major products.
  • By Product Sold on the Market (Subtraction Method): Byproduct costs are subtracted from the total cost to determine the cost of the main product.
  • By-Product Used as Factor (Recovery Method): The use of the by-product represents cost savings; the by-product cost equals the avoided costs of factors.
  • Production Co-products (Distribution Method): The costs of the main products are divided proportionally in relation to the revenues of both products.
