CHAPTER 2
Accounting for Materials
Raw materials costs are not just a concern of manufacturers. An
article, ‘‘Restaurant Costs Harder to Stomach,’’ in the June 7,
2008 Cincinnati Enquirer, explained how rapidly food costs were
rising and how difficult it was to pass those costs on to diners in
a sluggish economy. Bob Conway Jr., vice president of Bistro
Group, which operates Friday’s, McAlister’s, and Karlo’s in the
Greater Cincinnati area, said that in the past six months, ‘‘Food
prices increased more than anyone in the industry thought they
would. Pasta went up 130 percent. Other big jumps have been
eggs up 73 percent and rice up 39 percent . . . flour jumped
87 percent in the first three months of 2008 and fats and oils
were up 49 percent.’’

materials employ to survive in such a difficult environment? This
chapter will discuss basic aspects of materials control, internal
control procedures for materials, and adoption of a lean production
manufacturing systemto maximize efficiency and minimize waste.

expenditures made for raw materials, direct labor, and its fair
share of factory overhead. The principles and procedures for
controlling and accounting for these cost elements are discussed in Chapters
2, 3, and 4, respectively. Each chapter examines the accounting
procedures and controls that apply to one of the cost elements. Certain
procedures and controls, however, pertain to all of the cost elements. The
major function of a cost control system is to keep expenditures within the
limits of a preconceived plan. The control system should also encourage
