Accounting Formula Cheat Sheet

This document provides a cheat sheet of key accounting formulas: Prime Cost = Direct material costs + Direct labour costs. Conversion Cost = Direct labour + Manufacturing overhead costs. Product costs = Cost of materials (if applicable) + Direct labour + Overheads. Overhead rate = Total overhead costs / Allocation base. Non-manufacturing overhead absorption rate = Estimated non-manufacturing overhead costs / Estimated allocation base. Cost per unit of output = Total actual output costs / Total units produced. Cost per unit of output (with scrap value) = Total actual output costs - Scrap value / Total units produced - Scrap units.
