Cost Accounting and other financial statements

 Costs are very important in the accounting process, since costs are the measure to calculate the money used for buying materials and the money that is payed for labor in the transformation and the cost allows setting prices for sale.

Also the costs allow making the best decision. Costs are divided in direct and indirect depending of what is going to be produced and how it will be distributed.

Other financial statements are very interesting, because for example the profit and loss accounts allow us to analyze the effects of costs in the utilities generated from the operations of companies

  2. In my opinion to determine the costs of manufacture of a product or service is important because it help us know what you need to invest in these, dependent on the amounts that I will make in order to offer a quality product at low cost

  4. The other financial statements are very important because a company needs to have enough information on hand to take its decisions. While an income statement can tell you whether a company made a profit, a cash flow statement can tell you whether the company generated cash.

    A cash flow statement is very interest becuase shows the net increase or decrease in cash for the period. Generally, cash flow statements are divided into three main parts. Each part reviews the cash flow from one of three types of activities: operating, investing, and financing
