We study various analytical frameworks relating productivity change to change in the cost structure and cost efficiency of the firm. We begin by motivating a focus on the cost side, and not the revenue side, of the profit objective of the firm. We continue by relating the cost accounting tool of standard cost variance analysis to the economics tool of cost efficiency analysis. We focus on managerially controllable drivers of cost efficiency, including productivity change and its components. We conclude by noting some significant empirical applications of the analysis, by recommending cost efficiency analysis as a valuable tool for benchmarking against the best, and by suggesting some new directions for research.

Abstract— Competition in the business world requires companies to be able to manage their production cost effectively and efficiently. One of the method that can be use to controlling  production cost is a standard cost. This research aims to analyze the implementation of standard cost on controlling of production cost at PG Poerwodadie. The data collection technique are used by interview, documentation, and data triangulation. Data analysis in this research is done by setting the standard cost and analyzing using the two-way model  variance. The results of the research indicate that between the standard cost and actual cost incurred by PG Poerwodadie there is a favorable variance of Rp 2,667,683,61, which consist of raw material cost variance amounting to Rp 2.173.301.277 (favorable), direct labor cost variance amounting to Rp 539.403.640 (unfavourable), and factory overhead cost variance amounting to Rp 1.033.785.975 (favorable). Keywords—: standard cost; production cost; variance analysis.
