predetermined unit costs b Agree Examples of governmental regulations that establish standards for a business are the Fair Labor Standards Act the Equal Employment Opportunity Act and a multitude of environmental laws a Standards and budgets are similar in that both are predetermined costs and both contribute significantly to management planning and control The two terms differ in that a standard is a unit amount and a budget is a total amount b There are important accounting differences between budgets and standards Except in the application of manufacturing overhead to jobs and processes budget data are not journalized in cost accounting systems In contrast standard costs may be incorporated into cost accounting systems It is possible for a company to report inventories at standard costs in its financial statements but it is not possible to report inventories at budgeted costs In addition to facilitating management planning standard costs offer the following advantages to an organization 1 They promote greater economy by making employees more cost conscious 2 They may be useful in setting selling prices 3 They contribute to management control by providing a basis for evaluating …
