Cost accountants often lack the skills to build and validate cost accounting systems, leading to inherited, unexplained, and potentially incorrect cost data.

Existing cost accounting education and software focus on applying standard templates and reporting, but do not guide users in constructing a cost system from the actual manufacturing floor reality, nor in documenting the logic behind each cost allocation decision.
