Excerpt from The ABC of Cost Engineering
The fact that in normal pre-war times the life of the average manufacturing con cern was less than fifteen years, proves con elusively that there was, and is, something radically wrong with the business methods in common use.
Such conditions warrant the plainest language on the part of the author, and his statements deserve the most thoughtful consideration and investigation on the part of the reader, particularly if he is the managing executive of a factory.
Every statement proffered, no matter how exaggerated it may appear on its face.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is an impassioned defense of a new method for determining the cost of production in manufacturing. In the early 20th century, the author argues, American businesses were plagued by inaccurate and inconsistent cost accounting systems, leading to a widespread lack of understanding about the true expenses involved in making and selling products. The author criticizes traditional cost accounting approaches, particularly the use of ââ Å"overhead expenses,ââ  which he describes as a catch-all for items that accountants donââ â¢t know how to charge properly. He champions a new method, called ââ Å"Cost Engineering,ââ  which relies on detailed analysis and the accurate allocation of expenses to specific production processes. The author provides a clear and persuasive case for the use of Cost Engineering, highlighting its ability to eliminate guesswork and uncertainty from pricing decisions. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the evolution of business practices and the struggle to make cost accounting a more scientific discipline. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
