INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY

The economy which was one agriculture oriented is now largely into manufacturing our metaphosing into a more dynamic and diversified one. In essence, since the manufacturing industry is concerned with the production of finish goods, their absence is no exception as catalyst for the fast transformation of the country’s economy to manufacturing economy should be encourage for the tremendous contribution to the growth I can be give to the country. The growth of the costing started during the industries revolution in 1780AD and this was applied on the manufacturing activities of the small scale and medium scale business managed by individual shortly after, there was the need for the manufacturing industry to know their cost analysis involved in producing a particular goods or services to achieve the price at which the industry (manufacturing will sell it out to the consumer, thereby applying the costing principle necessary).

“Probably no single marketing tool is so critical from both economy and social stand point as price. Yet, as important as it is less is probably know about any other single market tool”.

(Buskirle 2001). Therefore should be a proper and effective method at arriving at actual expense should be a proper and effective method at arriving at actual expense (Direct Material Cost, Direct labour cost, overhead expenses and others indirect cost) on a production produced in an industry. The industry is bound to collapse, or continue to be run ineffectively if proper costing method is not that in place.
