Build a clearer view of what it costs to make, deliver or sell your products and services. CorporateWalla provides cost accounting support covering cost sheets, product or job costing, overhead allocation, variance analysis and management reporting, based on your business model and available data.
Cost accounting focuses on identifying, classifying, allocating and analysing costs so management can understand product, project, service or business-unit profitability.
The right approach depends on the nature of operations, costing objective, accounting framework, data quality and level of operational detail required. CorporateWalla can support costing models, cost sheets, reconciliations, variance analysis and recurring cost reports.
Support can include raw-material consumption, labour, production overheads, work-in-progress and finished-goods costing, subject to the client's production process and costing policy. See manufacturing accounting.
Costing can be organised around projects, contracts, jobs or customers to compare accumulated costs with billing and management-defined profitability measures. See project accounting.
Cost models can track employee time, subcontractor costs, software and operating costs, project expenses and other relevant drivers.
Cost analysis can focus on landed cost, purchase-related costs, product margins, customer/channel profitability and inventory-related data, subject to the underlying transactions and accounting policy.
Depending on the engagement, outputs may include:
Cost accounting reports are management tools unless a specific statutory, contractual or regulatory requirement applies. A costing model does not by itself constitute a statutory audit, tax audit, valuation, certification or independent assurance opinion.
Cost allocation methods should be agreed with management and applied consistently for the intended purpose. Where financial reporting requires a particular accounting treatment, the relevant accounting framework and transaction facts should be considered separately.
Cost accounting also does not automatically include physical stock verification, engineering production studies, legal review, tax opinions or independent valuation.
Cost accounting can be useful for:
