Cost accountants role in a target costing environment:
• The cost accountant (c.a) should be able to provide the design team a series of cost estimates based on initial design sketch, activity based costing reviews of production processes, and ‘best guess” costing information from suppliers based on estimated production volumes.
*c.a should be responsible for any capital budgeting requests generated by design team since he has the knowledge of capital budgeting process.
*c.a should help understand a design team the nature of various costs and cost benefit trade-offs of using different design or cost operation.
Apr 11, 2023Apr 11, 2023 1414
Cont.. *c.a is responsible for bridging the gap between current cost and
target cost which is a design teams goal providing an itemisation where cost saving has already been and where it is yet to be done and where there is no sufficient degree of progress.
c.a must continue to compare a products actual cost after a design is completed and till the company sells the product .
Impact of target costing (t.c) on profitability:*profitability is affected depending on the commitment of management to its use ,constant involvement of a c.a in a product’s life cycle, and type of strategy the orgn. follows .

Profitability can be improved in two ways:
It places detailed continuing emphasis on product costs throughout the life cycle of every product.
Through precise targeting of correct prices at which company feels it can place a profitable product in the market place that will sell in a robust manner as against the earlier cost plus method.
