Excerpt from Cost Finding, Vol. 10
It has been the aim of the author in writing this book to discuss in a direct and simple manner the fundamental principles that underlie all cost-finding systems. Abstruse and abstract arguments have been avoided and an effort has been made to make the work of practical use. Commercial data, diagrams and typical documents used in cost finding have been inserted only where needed to illustrate the discussion, and no attempt has been made to present complete cost systems, as is often done in treatises of this kind. Industrial conditions vary widely, and it is believed that if the fundamental principles of cost finding are thoroly understood and the peculiar conditions of the particular problem in hand are carefully studied, the making of blanks and forms should be a minor difficulty.
Care has been taken, also, to point out as far as possible the limitations of the theories and methods that have been discussed. Cost finding, at best, is a complex matter and is far from being an accurate science. The successful choice of a cost-finding system that will be suitable for a given set of conditions depends to a large degree on a knowledge of the limitations of the methods to be employed.
