‘a level of
quality’
QUALITY
COSTING
‘the way the
entrepreneur
calculates or works
out how much each
individual product
(goods or service)
costs to produce or
sell’
standard
costing
- technique
- what a resource should
cost
- how long a process
should take
- compares with actual
happenings
comparison

- able to see how efficient


they are
- calculating variance
variance

- a difference between the


standard and what
actually happened
standards set
for:
- material costs
- amount of material that
should be used
- labour costs
- amount of time that a
process should take
standard
costing

- common in
manufacturing business
important uses:
1) control device
2) budget-setting
process
3) quoting for a job
4) targets and
motivation
5) decision-making
6) costs for inventory
types of
standard:
1. Ideal Standard

2. Attainable Standard

3. Basic Standard
1. Ideal Standard
- no breakdown of
machinery
- 100% efficiency
- no idle/waiting time
- no wastage
- ideal price will always
paid

:. usually unrealistic
2. Attainable Standard

- ideal conditions will not


exist
- wastage of materials
- not 100% efficient
- breakdown

:. realistic
3. Basic Standard

- standard is set
- never reviewed

:. standards should be
constantly reviewed and
amended
Calculating
standard unit
cost
setting standards:

- technical standards:
• how much material
should be used
• how much time should
be taken
setting standards:

- cost standards:
• price of materials
• labour rate
standard cost card
- one per product
- include:
• quantity and price of each
material to be used
• time and rate of each
grade of direct labour to
be used
• basis and amount of
overhead recovery

ADVANTAGES

- managers are able to


control the business more
effectively
- increased motivation of
staff having realistic and
achievable targets
- budgets and forecasts can
be prepared more easily
DISADVANTAGES

- standards must be
reviewed regularly and
amended
- time-consuming and costly
- standard costs are most
suitable for businesses
with established repetitive
process
Standard Hours
Standard hour
- measure of a quantity of
work undertaken in one
hour

- produce one product

- produce more than one

= total standard hours of
