This week we are introducing the topic of cost management and the different factors that cause it (cost drivers). Suppose you are a production manager and the internal auditor, controller, tells you that a new policy will require you to track all material wasted and discarded in the production process. Why do you think the internal auditor is requesting a written record of damaged or wasted material? What benefits can be obtained from tracking, calculated as a percentage of the cost per job order, the amount of material wasted and scrapped? Be sure to give examples.
