Fundamental principles of costing

In this article you will read about the fundamental principles of costing 1.        Cost is related to its cause. A cost is related as closely as possible to its cause. Rent of the factory, for instance, cannot be charged to office expenses, repairing charges of a machine cannot be charged to some other machine, and in the same way, a foreman’s salary cannot be charged to one single unit, if many more units are produced in a department supervised by that foreman. The reason in all the above cases is that cost is related to its cause. 2.        Cost is charged after it is incurred. If a cost is not incurred either actually or notionally, it cannot be charged to a cost centre. For instance, a cost unit is not charged with selling costs while it is still under manufacture in the factory, as selling costs would occur only when the cost unit is finished in the factory and is sold.

PRODUCTION FUNCTION: RETURNS TO A FACTOR AND RETURNS TO SCALE

1.        Production requires use of certain inputs like land, labour, capital, raw materials, etc. these inputs are classified as: (i)                   Factor inputs and (ii)                 Non-factor inputs Factor inputs include factors of production such as land, labour, capital and enterprise, whereas non-factor inputs include raw material and fuels. These inputs are further classified as (i)                   Fixed inputs and (ii)                 Variable inputs A fixed input is one whose supply cannot be increased in the short run such as, land whereas a variable input is one whose supply can be increased in the short run, such as labour. 2.        A production function expresses the technical relationship between inputs and output of a firm. It tells the maximum quantity of output that can be produced with any given quantities of inputs. If there are two factor inputs : labour (l) and capital (k), then the production function can be written as
