Control Standards

Trevor J. Bentley

Chapter 4 in Making Cost Control Work, 1978, pp 25-32 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The main problem with standard costs is that we can be absolutely certain that actual costs will vary. The causes of variation were discussed in chapter 3. All of these affect the comparison of actual with standard; some can be predicted, others cannot.
