What does Reckoner Cost Accounting system aims at?
Answer. Reckoner Cost accounting system aims primarily to serve the information needs of management for planing, control and decision making. It is a system that accumulates costs, assigns them to cost objectives, i.e. products, jobs, processes, etc. and reports cost information. It helps in determination of product costs, facilitates planning and control of regular business activities and supplies information for short and long run decisions.Reckoner cost accounting system supports various methods of costing such as job costing, batch costing, process costing etc. Organizations may be able to choose the appropriate costing system, depending upon their type of industry and manufacturing process. This system allows definition of cost centers in a hierarchical structure. Users can allocate costs to these cost centers by using cost documents for different cost transactions. These cost documents are often automatically generated because of its tight integration with other Reckoner modules. This system also allows identification of costs under different cost heads such as direct materials, direct labour etc. Optionally costs can also be tracked for different activities to accommodate activity based costing.
How many Cost systems can be defined & allocated to a Company?
Answer. Multiple cost systems can be defined for the whole enterprise. They can be also allocated to a company, which signifies the usage of cost system in that company. However, only one cost system can be allocated to a company.
What do we define in Cost Center Group Definition?
Answer. This function allows definition of cost center groups. These groups are used for classification of cost centers and further help in summarization of costs. This function allows defining hierarchical structure for cost center classification.
What do we define in Cost Center Definition?
Answer. This function allows defining cost centers for a company. A cost center is defined as a location, person, or item of equipment (or group of these) for which costs may be ascertained and used for the purposes of cost control. A cost center is organization segment or area of activity for which it is desirable to accumulate costs. This module allows definition of cost centers, which are permanent in nature such as accounting department, Production process stage 1, Factory Lighting etc. However, in different periods there may be temporary cost centers such as Expansion project etc. A cost center cost may or may not be directly allocable to the products. If yes, this function also allows definition of allocation of costs to the products. For this purpose, the products must have already been defined in the sales module. In some cases exact costs can be traced to the products directly from the cost documents. However, this is possible only in cases of direct materials and labour cost. All the indirect costs must be allocated on percentage basis to different products.
How much Cost can be allocated to a Product?
Answer. Costs of cost centers can be allocated to one or many products; however, costs can not be allocated to products more than 100%. Less than 100% of costs can be alocated to the products.
What do we define in Cost Head Definition?
Answer. This function allows definition of cost heads, under which costs can be identified. The various cost heads can be defined such as direct material, direct labour, factory overheads etc. Other module posts the costs originating from their modules correctly to different cost heads. A material module allocates costs of goods issue as direct material cost if issue is against production order or a project. For other issues such as maintenance, consumption etc. allocation is done as indirect materials.
Can we allocate common expenses to multiple companies based on predefined percentage?
Answer. Since each company is treated as a different legal entity, the transaction within one legal entity will not directly affect the transactions in other legal entities. For costing purposes feasible by allocating to those cost centres and seeing a consolidated costing report for transactions in a single databse but units defined as different companies.
Can we generate cashflow forecasts?
Answer. Completely online on an actual cost basis.
