Justification

The Society of Cost Management has identified a great disparity between the average content of a Cost or Management Accounting

course and the level of competency the average professional should posess.

Textbook focus, whether they be Cost Accounting, Management Accounting, or Cost Management, tend to focus on the theoretical

and ignore the practical. For example, most textbooks focus on Activity Based Costing, but in reality very few businesses use ABC.

Although SCM encourages the use of advanced costing techniques, like ABC, the Cost Accountant must be able to come into a

business and be able to understand what is going on now, and in most cases that is standard costing. Standard costing is considered

obsolete by academicians and is often not presented at all or superficially.

The Society of Cost Management presents this Self-Study Guide as a means of brushing up or learning new skills. The topics are

presented from basic required skills through those required to take the profession to a new level.

Topic Presentation: Topics have been segregated into five categories, it explains why the topic is important and sources of

information that are freely available on the internet, or from the bookstore of the Society of Cost Management.

Prerequisites – These are non-Cost Management related areas that are significant to understanding how the economy works,

and a basic introduction of accounting and statistics.

Professional Competencies – Competencies which are critical to the Cost Management professional working in relation to other

disciplines; working in teams; and essential PC and data analysis skills

Proficiencies Needed To Achieve a Basic Level of Competence – Beginning with the history of Cost Accounting, and continuing

through other Management Accounting skills that any practitioner should be able to apply in their daily work, CVP and

differential analysis; Indirect Cost; Direct Cost; Activity Based Costing/Activity Based Management; Performance Management;

Inventory Management and Valuation; International Topics (Risk, Costing, International Measures, and Purchasing Power Parity);

Financial Mathematics; Capital Budgeting/Capital Investment Analysis; Revenue Recognition; Profit Planning; Michael Porter and

Value Chain Analysis, and; International Topics (Transfer Pricing).

Optional Areas of Proficiency – These are skills that are more specific in nature; Supply Chain Costing; Cost of Quality, Lean Cost

Management, and Throughput Accounting.

Proficiencies Needed To Take Us To the Next Level – These are the skills which should propel us to the next level of competency;

Value Cost Management; Capacity Management; Product Life Cycle Costing, and; Beyond Budgeting.

Proficiencies Needed To Achieve a Basic Level of Competence

History of Cost Accounting – Cost Accounting came to life in the early 1900’s from the works of industrial engineers interested in trying to figure out the cost of products they were manufacturing. As businesses and information have evolved, the writings of these early pioneers, such as Alexander Hamilton Church, gain even more relevance. Operations Cost Management – Costing concepts were developed due to the needs of manufacturing. Students of cost must have an understanding of how cost was developed, including Bill of Materials and Routes. Why would a business would use actual costing or standard costing and process or job costing? CVP Analysis/Contribution Margin/Marginal Costing - Contribution Margin and Contribution Margin Ratio, Contribution Ratio Income Statement. Differential Analysis - Make/buy decisions, optimizing sales mix, special order, etc. Indirect Cost (Full Absorption Costing/Variable Costing) - Full Absorption Costing is required under GAAP/Variable Costing is required under IFRS. Direct Cost (Standard Cost/Actual Cost) – In many of the texts, standard cost is no longer considered relevant and has been replaced by Activity Based Costing. In reality, standard cost (for direct cost) and ABC (indirect cost) have different purposes. Standard cost is still being used by approximately 80% of manufacturing businesses. Overhead allocation using one or a small number of cost pools. Includes allocating costs for shared services, joint costs and by-products. Activity Based Costing/Activity Based Management – Understand the basic principles and application of Activity Based Costing techniques Performance Management (includes Balanced Scorecard and Six Sigma) – In today’s business environment, the new paradigm of cost management professional requires a good understanding on the principles of the Balanced Scorecard, Six Sigma, and Activity Based Management. Inventory Management and Valuation – the responsibilities of cost accountants include accurate inventory valuation with all its implications. Managing the correct amount of physical inventory, includes cycle counting, taking physical inventories, book to physical reconciliation, maintaining reserves, safety stock calculation, inventory carrying costs (investments), ABC analysis or Pareto's Law and Inventory Management Models. Valueing inventory, lower of cost or market.

International Topics (Risk, Costing, International Measures, and Purchasing Power Parity) – many businesses today conduct business globally, and the impact of risk, costing, international measures. Financial Mathematics – The time value of money, foreign currency investments, cost of capital. Capital Budgeting/Capital Investment Analysis - Analyzing Capital Budgeting projects. Revenue Recognition - Understanding the principle of revenue recognition, that revenues are recognized when they are realized. Profit Planning (Budgeting/Pricing) - a financial plan and a list of all planned expenses and revenues Michael Porter and Value Chain Analysis - Applying Porter's five forces and value chain analysis to cost management. International Topics (Transfer Pricing)

Optional Areas of Proficiency

Quality Cost - How much does quality cost in waste, scrap, etc. Supply Chain Costing/Target Costing - Understanding and computing the costs associated with the supply chain, including suppliers, freight, and taxation. W. Edwards Deming/Lean Cost Management - Demings revolutionized quality and is the basis of the Toyota method. Theory of Constraints /Throughput Accounting - Based on Goldratts Theory of Constraints.

Proficiencies Needed To Take Us To the Next Level

Value Based Cost Management – The hottest topic in business today needs to be part of the cost management profile. Applying EVA to Cost Management Capacity Management – Capacity and its cost are essential to understanding the cost of a business. Cost Management is already headed this way. Product Life Cycle Costing – It is important to understand product cost from inception throughout the product life cycle. Beyond Budgeting - Budgeting techniques are no longer appropriate as a planning tool, learn the Beyond Budgeting techniques.
