Cost of Production Report The cost of production report provides the following production quantity and cost data: The units for which the department is accountable and the deposition of those units. The production costs incurred by the department and the allocation of those costs between completed and partially completed units. A cost of production report also is used to control costs.

JIT organizes work cells that perform several manufacturing steps. Workers are cross-trained to perform more than one task. This provides flexibility and worker pride and involvement in the final product. Because products have limited movement between departments, the nonvalue-added cost of transporting products and parts is reduced.
