b) It helps in the elimination of non-value adding activities. c) It helps in the planning and budgeting of each department separately.
The company uses another very good cost based measure which is the calculation of fixed and variable costs separately. Generally, the companies follow a simple approach of calculating unit cost for each activity, and then multiplying it by the total number of units to be produced to calculate the total cost of production. But, there are minor loopholes in this approach, which if left unnoticed, may emerge out as non-existent costs, which spoil the whole estimation. For e.g. if a company does outsourcing for one of the stages of production, then it does not have to incur fixed costs for that stage. But, it may go unnoticed by the companies which uses combined fixed and variable cost system.
Sub Micron Devices operates in semi-conductor industry wherein overhead costs are generally greater than direct material and direct labour costs. These overhead costs are calculated by assigning separate cost drivers to Fabrication and Assembly stages. The cost drivers are:
a. Fabrication - Number of moves b. Assembly - Direct labour costs
A move is defined as,”Any significant alteration done to a raw silicon wafer.” The Fabrication process consists of breaking a raw

Semicontronics realizes it must find a quality subcontractor with the capabilities to manufacture the Phoneson computer chips, including the enhanced memory requirements.
Cost accounting is a type of accounting process that aims to capture a company's costs of production by assessing the input costs of each step of production as well as fixed costs such as depreciation of capital equipment. Cost accounting will first measure and record these costs individually, then compare input results to output or actual results to aid company management in measuring financial performance (Cost Accounting, n.d.).

Would factory security and assembly activities be best classified at an appliance manufacturing plant as unit-level, batch-level, product-level, or organization-sustaining?
They also want to continue as the leader in transistor density. This implies the continued importance of process technology skills associated with "line width reduction".
The board of directors of the Cortez Beach Yacht Club (CBYC) is developing plans to acquire more equipment for lessons and rentals and to expand club facilities. The board plans to purchase about $50,000 of new equipment each year and wants to begin a fund to purchase a $600,000 piece of property for club expansion.
All the costs by a company can be broken into two categories, fixed costs and variable costs. Costs that are independent of output are called fixed costs. Fixed costs remain constant throughout the relevant range and are usually considered sunk for the relevant range. Buildings and machinery are included inputs that cannot be adjusted in the short term. They are only fixed in relation to the quantity of production for a certain time period. The cost of all inputs is variable, in the long run.

Several years ago, the company set out to create a “Cost Accounting Center of Excellence”. The initial development of the project was at the request of the Chief Financial Officer the executive sponsor. The main goals set for the team concentrated on harmonizing the ways of working for all manufacturing facilities in The United States, centralize the execution of the cost accounting function, and reduce administrative costs associated with performing the cost accounting function. The team structure included a Steering Committee comprised of the Chief Accountant, Director of Business Excellence, and a Business Group Controller (i.e. Stakeholder). The Steering Committee provided the oversight and guidance of the core team responsible for executing the vision set forth in the project charter. This structured design represented a formal group. A formal group is, by definition, formed by a manager to assist the organization to accomplish its goals [Kinicki & Fugate, p.227]. Due to the technical nature of the subject matter, the Steering Committee delegated significant latitude and a high level of autonomy to the core team in performing the tasks assigned. As a result, the team proceeded, in several respects, as a self-managed team given administrative oversight for the domain tasks [Kinicki & Fugate, p.240]. The core team consisted of cost accountants, technical accountants, IT specialists, and manufacturing personnel. This cross-functional team used the complementary skills to
