1 Job Order Costing Job order costing assigns costs to each job. A job can be an order, a contract or a unit of production. e.g. If we want to accumulate the cost of repair of a machine this is done by collecting the cost of parts, direct labor and overhead costs (applied by using an overhead rate).

2 Therefore job order accounting system is a product system used in making one-of –a-kind or special order products. In such system direct materials, direct labor and overhead costs are assigned to specific jobs. In computing unit costs the total manufacturing costs for each job order are divided by the number of units produced for that order. Therefore job order accounting system is a product system used in making one-of –a-kind or special order products. In such system direct materials, direct labor and overhead costs are assigned to specific jobs. In computing unit costs the total manufacturing costs for each job order are divided by the number of units produced for that order.

4 Accounting for material in job order system Accounting for material in job order system Materials if they form an identifiable part of the end product they are classified as direct materials and if they are used in the manufacturing process; they are classified as indirect. Once material are there a material requisition form is made to record the material flow. Materials if they form an identifiable part of the end product they are classified as direct materials and if they are used in the manufacturing process; they are classified as indirect. Once material are there a material requisition form is made to record the material flow.

5 This is the basic source of document informing the cost accounting department that materials have been issued. (Internal control) other documents include material purchase request, purchase orders and receiving reports.
