Cost Sheet (or) Statement of Cost
ELEMENTS OF COST
Introduction
Elements of cost are necessary to have a proper classification and analysis of total cost. Thus,
elements of cost provide the management with necessary information for proper control and management
decisions. For this purpose, the total cost is analysed by the elements or nature of cost, i.e., material,
labour and overheads. The various elements of costs may be illustrated as below:

By grouping of the above elements of cost, the following divisions of cost are obtained:
(1) Prime Cost
(2) Works Cost (Factory)
= Direct Materials + Direct Labour + Direct Expenses
= Prime Cost + Factory Overhead

(3) Cost of Production
(4) Cost of Sales (or) Total Cost
(I) Materials Cost
= Factory Cost + Office and Administrative Overhead
= Cost of Production + Selling and
Distribution Overhead

Materials Costs refer to cost of materials which are the major substances used in production and are
converted into finished goods and semi-finished goods. Materials are grouped as direct materials and
indirect materials.
Direct Materials: Direct materials are those that form part of a product. Raw materials, semi-
finished products, and finished products which can be identified with production of a product are known
as direct materials. Sugar cane, cotton, oilseeds, woods etc. are examples of direct materials. The cost of
materials involves conversion of raw materials into finished products.
Indirect Materials: Material costs, other than direct material cost are known as indirect material
cost. Indirect materials cannot be identified with a particular unit of cost or product. Indirect materials are
indirectly used for producing the products. Lubricating oil, consumable stores, fuel, design, layout etc. are
examples of indirect material cost.
(II) Labour Cost
In actual production of the product, labour is the prime factor which is physically and mentally
involved. The payment of remuneration of wages is made for their effort. The labour costs are grouped
into (a) Direct Labour and (b) Indirect Labour.
(a) Direct Labour: Direct labour cost or direct wages refer to those specifically incurred for or can
be readily charged to or identified with a specific job, contract, work order or any other unit of cost are
termed as direct labour cost. Wages for supervision, wages for foremen, wages for labours who are actually
engaged in operation or process are examples of direct labour cost.
(b) Indirect Labour: Indirect labour is for work in general. The importance of the distinction lies in
the fact that whereas direct labour can be identified with and charged to the job, indirect labour cannot be
so charged and has therefore to be treated as part of the factory overheads to be included in the cost of
production. Examples are salaries and wages of supervisors, store keepers, maintenance labour etc.
(III) Expenses
All expenses are other than material and labour that are incurred for a particular product or process.
They are defined by ICMA as "The cost of service provided to an undertaking and the notional cost of the
use of owned assets." Expenses are further grouped into (a) Direct Expenses and (b) Indirect Expenses.
,(a) Direct Expenses: Direct expenses which are incurred directly and identified with a unit of
output or process are treated as direct expenses. Hire charges of special plant or tool, royalty on product,
cost of special pattern etc. are the examples of direct expenses.
(b) Indirect Expenses: Indirect expenses are expenses other than indirect materials and indirect
labour, which cannot be directly identified with a unit of output. Rent, power, lighting, repairs, telephone
etc. are examples of indirect expenses.
Overheads
All indirect material cost, indirect labour cost, and indirect expenses are termed as Overheads.
Overheads may also be classified into (a) Production or Factory Overhead (b) Office and Administrative
Overheads (c) Selling Overhead and (d) Distribution Overhead.
3. 312 A Textbook ofFinancial Cost and Management Accounting
(a) Production Overhead: Production Overhead is also termed as Factory Overhead. Factory
overhead includes indirect material, indirect labour and indirect wages which are incurred in the factory.
For example, rent of factory building, repairs, depreciation, wages of indirect workers, etc.
(b) Office and Administrative Overhead: Office and Administrative Overhead is the indirect
expenditure incurred in formulating the policies, establishment of objectives, planning, organizing and
controlling the operations of an undertaking. All office and administrative expenses like rent, staff salaries,
postage, telegram, general expenses etc. are examples.
(c) Selling Overhead: Selling Overhead is the indirect expenses which are incurred for promoting
sales, stimulating demand, securing orders and retaining customers. For example, advertisement, salesmen's
commission, salaries of salesmen etc.
(d) Distribution Overhead: These costs are incurred from the time the product is packed until it
reaches its destination. Cost of warehousing, cost of packing, transportation cost etc. are some of the
examples of distribution overhead.
COST SHEET
Meaning: Cost Sheet or a Cost Statement is "a document which provides for the assembly of the
estimated detailed elements of cost in respect of cost centre or a cost unit." The analysis for the different
elements of cost of the product is shown in the form of a statement called "Cost Sheet." The statement
summarises the cost of manufacturing a particular list of product and discloses for a particular period:
(I) Prime Cost;
(II) Works Cost (or) Factory Cost;
(III) Cost of Production;
(IV) Total Cost (or) Cost of Sales.
Importance of Cost Sheet
(1) It provides for the presentation of the total cost on the basis of the logical classification.
(2) Cost sheet helps in determination of cost per unit and total cost at different stages of production.
(3) Assists in fixing of selling price.
(4) It facilitates effective cost control and cost comparison.
(5) It discloses operational efficiency and inefficiency to the management for taking corrective actions.
(6) Enables the management in. the preparation of cost estimates to tenders and quotations.
