Costing as a tool for costs management
KALKUŠOVÁ, Renata
This work deals with the issues of the formation and use of costings within the corporate practice. The aim is to create final costings of a selected cost unit (one hour of work of a wheeled excavator) and to evaluate the cost effectiveness and its profitability for the company. The theoretical section of the work focuses on basic terminology and it treats the importance of costings, classification of costs, types of costings, the methods of evaluation of effectiveness and the possible role of the costings within the analysis of the break-even point. The actual costing was compiled in the form of absorption (full) and variable costs. The work is based on the billed items of the costs which were all transferred to the direct and indirect costs. For the allocation of general management and administration costs and the manufacturing costs, the natural allocation basis worked hours was chosen. The obtained data provided the basis for the evaluation of the profitability of the product and for the calculation of the profit in the absolute amount with regard to different prices for one hour of work. The main result of the research was that the amount charged for the product does not reach its complete output expenses. Using the analysis of break-event point, we specified the volumes of output and its prices needed so that the product could make a profit.
