The main purpose of the industrial enterprise is to ensure its sustainable development. This can be achieved by constantly seeking and implementing measures to improve the economic efficiency of management. Cost is one of the indicators that affects the efficiency of economic activity of the enterprise and its structural units. It concentrates the main indicators of economic and production activities, namely: the efficiency of financial, material, labor and other resources, and hence the quality of employees and the enterprise as a whole, their advantages, achievements and losses and shortcomings. Cost directly affects the profitability, profit and financial result of economic activity. The main aim of the article is the analysis and generalization of approaches to interpretations of the concept of cost, the role and importance of the cost indicator in production management, its place in the economic mechanism of management. Theoretical general scientific research methods (analysis, abstraction, generalization, classification, etc.) have been used. The article emphasizes that the cost should be understood as the value of the cost of resources used in the production and sale of products. The study showed that the cost, as a generalizing economic indicator, reflects all aspects of the enterprise: the degree of technological equipment of production and development of technological processes, the level of organization of production and labor, the degree of capacity utilization, economy of material and labor resources and other conditions and factors that characterize production and economic activities. The practical significance of the obtained results is to clarify the meaning of the concept of cost as a generalizing economic indicator. The scientific novelty of the study is to determine the feasibility of taking into account in the formation of the cost indicator not only the cost of resources used in the process of achieving certain goals, but also the costs associated with the risky, innovative nature of entrepreneurship. Further research will be aimed at finding new methods and factors to reduce the cost of production of enterprises in Ukraine. Keywords: cost, cost of production, cost of production, cost accounting

This study aims to find a comparison of the calculation of the cost of goods manufactured in the CV. Mitra Setia Blitar uses the company's method and uses the Job Order Costing (JOC) method. The method used in this study is quantitative. The types of data used are quantitative and qualitative. Quantitative data is in the form of map production cost data while qualitative data is in the form of information about map production process. The result of calculating the cost of production of the map between the two methods results in a difference of Rp. 306. Calculation using the company method is more expensive than using the Job Order Costing method. Calculation of cost of goods manufactured using the company method is Rp. 2,205,000, - or Rp. 2,205, - each unit. While using the Job Order Costing (JOC) method is Rp. 1,899,000, - or Rp 1,899, - each unit. So that the right method used in calculating the cost of production is the Job Order Costing (JOC) method

This study aims to evaluate the calculation of cost of production. The accuracy of the calculation of cost of production is influenced by the suitability in the accumulation and calculation of production costs which includes the cost of raw materials, direct labor costs and other costs (factory overhead costs). This research was conducted at UKM UD. Usaha Baru which aims to determine the calculation of cost of production at UD. Usaha Baru and to find out whether the calculation of cost of production is in accordance with the full costing method. The technique (method) of data analysis used in this study is quantitative analysis. Data collection techniques use interview techniques directly to obtain information from the number of units of monthly production, raw material costs, direct labor costs, and factory overhead costs, as well as other information relating to the calculation of cost of production. Based on the evaluation results for the calculation of raw material costs and labor costs are in accordance with the full costing method. However, the calculation of factory overhead costs is not in accordance with the full costing method because there are costs that have not been included in the calculation of production costs.

Area and production of raw jute has decreased, though there is a high demand of raw jute in the country. In order to assess production constraints, a survey was carried out in 2005/06 in Jhapa, Morang and Sunsari districts. The study revealed that unstable or low price of raw jute, unavailability of quality jute seed, limited irrigation water at sowing period, diseases complex (wilt), labor shortage during peak season, weed problem, lack of retting water/retting pond were the main constraints in jute production and processing. The study indicates that the maximum production cost has involved in fiber extraction (16.9%) and weeding (16.33%). Jute productivity ranged from 1788 to 2260 kg per hectare. JRO-524 variety of jute has been widely grown across the region due to its wider adaptability, high yield potential and quality fiber. Jute area has been replaced by sugarcane due to its high yield potential and high profit margin. It is observed that the cost of production of jute is high as compared to other crops in the season. Average cost of production of fiber was estimated to be Rs.1563/quintal. For the promotion of jute cultivation in the eastern Terai, it would be better to provide subsidies on seeds and fertilizer to jute growers as practiced in neighboring countries thereby profit margin becomes high and will encourage growers in producing more raw jute within the country for the fulfillment of raw jute requirement of local jute industries. Cost effective technologies have to be developed in jute production and processing aspects for lowering the production cost and increasing the profit margin. Popular genotypes JRO- 524 which was widely adopted needs to be recommended officially for the general cultivation in this region. Being an eco-friendly crop, promotion is required to adapt climate change effect and maintaining the soil properties in jute growing areas.
