Cost accounting
This system is designed for inhouse or internal managers and their decision making. Cost accounting information is not needed for comparison with other companies. This information is commonly used in financial accounting also, but it is primarily used by company managers for their decision making. It is important that cost accounting information is relevant for the decision making of the manager.
Cost variances
Cost variance is the difference between actual quantities (AQ) multiplied with actual price (AP) and standard quantities (SQ) multiplied with standard price (SP).
