Manufacturing and Production Engineering Cost Analysis for Engineers Scientists

This textbook covers how to apply managerial accounting techniques to problems in areas such as cost estimation, cost control, product pricing, and business segment discontinuation. It also discusses how to assess and evaluate cost and profitability analysis of financial projects. This book helps apply managerial accounting techniques to problems in areas including that of cost estimation, cost control, product pricing, and business segment discontinuation. It is a valuable resource for short-term courses and seminars conducted to train professionals and practitioners in engineering and manufacturing cost analysis. Cost Analysis for Engineers and Scientists introduces the fundamentals accounting information systems and manufacturing costs. It also presents product costing and manufacturing cost allocation to individual as well as joint products. The concepts and applications of cost-volume-profit and breakeven analysis for single-product and multiple-products are also discussed. It is intended for engineers, managers, and scientists to apply cost analysis techniques for assessing engineering and financial projects. A solutions manual and PowerPoint slides are available for qualified textbook adoption.
