Summary
Cost Accounting focuses on capturing, valuing, and analyzing the costs of manufacturing operations — standard cost setup and maintenance, variance analysis (PPV, work order, cost revaluation), inventory valuation and reconciliation, and cost of goods sold validation. Distinct from General/Financial Accounting (statutory close, consolidations), FP&A (forecasting/planning of enterprise results), and Tax — this focus owns the costing model, BOM/labor/overhead rate development, and production cost analysis used to drive operational and pricing decisions in a manufacturing environment.
