Abstract
objective of the research to develop a proposed model for the use of lean accounting and target cost in the Kufa cement plant to reduce costs as they are among the most important techniques of strategic cost management in the field of cost accounting and management accounting, The research was conducted on kufa cement factory data to show the effect of using lean accounting techniques and target costing to reduce costs.
The research was built on a main hypothesis that the use of lean accounting techniques and target costing leads to reducing costs in the kufa cement factory in manner that is commensurate with the requirements of the modern manufacturing environment.
The research reached a number of conclusions, the most important of which is that the techniques of lean accounting and target costing are among the important techniques that reduce costs in the life cycle of the product, from the planning stage to research and development, without compromising the quality of the product. The research reached came out with a number of recommendations, including the necessity of moving the kufa cement factory to the two techniques of lean accounting and target costing, due to the multiplicity of needs and desires of customers and change in benefits and from of products, as well as their role in reducing costs.
Abstract
This study aims to explain the cognitive foundations of green target costing, its role in reducing costs, and the extent of its contribution to environmental protection by reducing pollution and reducing consumption of resources and energy, in addition to improving quality and reducing the costs of environmental failure, that is, achieving a balance between environmental responsibility and reducing costs, as well as how to introduce aspects The environment in the target cost equation. In order to achieve this goal, the study used philosophical analysis of its variables, in addition to a review of the literature that searched for the traditional target cost all the way to the green one, as a sample of studies limited to the years 2004 - 2023 was taken. This study concluded the importance of the green target cost in Achieving a balance between product quality, cost and environmental responsibility, and how it can contribute to improving quality and reducing the costs of failure.
Abstract
This study aimed to explore the effect of using a sustainable balanced scorecard in the relationship between strategic cost management methods and strategic performance of Jordanian public shareholding industrial companies by shedding light on the most important modern administrative and accounting techniques used by advanced industrial companies in managing their costs and following up on the implementation of necessary corrective and preventive measures to enhance areas of strength and address areas of weakness in their strategic performance. The study population consisted of all employees in Jordanian public shareholding industrial companies. To achieve the objectives of the study, a questionnaire was developed and distributed to (205) individuals working in Jordanian public shareholding industrial companies. (158) questionnaires were retrieved, of which (146) were valid for analysis. To test the hypotheses, Structural Equation Model (PLS- SEM).
The study found that there is an effect of using a sustainable balanced scorecard in the relationship between total quality management method and strategic performance of Jordanian public shareholding industrial companies. However, the results of the study indicated no effect of using a sustainable balanced scorecard in the relationship between other strategic cost management methods (Target costing method, comparative measurement method) and the strategic performance of Jordanian public shareholding industrial companies. Based on the results of this study, the researchers reached several recommendations, The most important was: the necessity of Jordanian public shareholding industrial companies to enhance the implementation of strategic cost management methods, especially the target costing method, due to its positive effect on the use of a sustainable balanced scorecard. Moreover, it is essential to reconsider the application of comparative measurement method and work on its enhancement to be more effective in supporting the use of a sustainable balanced scorecard and improving strategic performance
