Job Costing
Job costing is a product costing method adopted by an enterprise that provides limited quantities of unique products
This kind of enterprise produces tailor-made goods or services that conform to the specifications designed by customer
Costs can be determined separately for each job order
3
Costing under three different method Actual costing Normal costing Standard costing
4
Costing system Production cost
Actual costing Actual direct materials + Actual labour + Actual overhead
Normal costing Actual direct material + Actual direct labour + Applied overhead (I.e. Per-determined overhead rate * actual level of productivity)
Standard costing Standard direct material + standard direct labour + applied overhead
5
Which one better?
Normal product costing and standard costing are preferable
6
Reasons
Under actual costing, the product cost will be delayed until the end of the accounting period. However, the product cost should be obtained beforehand for setting selling price
Since monthly productivity may vary due to holiday periods and seasonal variation, actual overhead is fluctuating and cannot reflect normal production conditions
