Abstract

In January, 1924, after years of study, the National Cost Laboratory decided upon an accounting system to tie up to the cost system and complete the total cost accounting system which was started in 1921. In order to present this accounting system and show its relationship to the cost system, it is necessary to publish a description thereof, together with instructions. It is the decision of the National Cost Laboratory that the National Cost Accounting System shall be displayed to our membership in every possible form in order that it can be thoroughly understood by all executives in our industry. With this object in view, we are publishing this Manual of Instruction and have endeavored to present in our language (not the language of the expert) this Cost and Accounting System as it operates in our factories. The fundamental system is displayed here. It is natural that from the foundation many branches can be developed and from time to time the Laboratory expects to publish supplements to this booklet explaining the various developments from these fundamentals.
