Calculation methods for cost management in the construction industry

Abstract

Information on costs in the system of information on the activities of construction organizations plays a significant role in making managerial decisions, since the main indicators characterizing the activities of the organization are the volume of costs and the cost of production calculated on the basis of data on costs. The relevance of this article lies in the fact that the technology of construction production has a number of specific features that affect the organization of analytical and synthetic accounting of business entities. High competition, the search for reserves to reduce the cost of construction products and increase profitability require information on the real level of costs, rationality of use various resources. In the management system of a construction enterprise, an important place should be given to management of construction costs.The article also considers analytical tools and recommends a combined system for calculating the cost of construction products in the organization of management accounting, ensuring the adoption of effective management decisions of the construction company. When writing the article, general scientific methods of cognition (statistical, normative analysis, synthesis, analogy, generalization), empirical-theoretical (collecting, studying and comparing data), as well as methods of scientific cognition (historical and legal, systemic) were used. When processing and systematizing data, grouping and classification methods were used. The information-statistical base of the study was made up of data from official periodicals and information-analytical publications of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Optimizing Smart Factories: A Data-Driven Approach

“…Reliability analysis of the EMS2022 constructs was used to reveal internal consistency values. For reliable data, a partial technique across Industry 4.0 sectors established interpretable results (Bozgulova & Adambekova, 2023;Juariyah et al, 2020). Utilizing over 50 sub-items from the EMS22 survey represents a framework.…”

Scrutinizing Competitiveness of Construction Companies Based on an Integrated Multi-Criteria Decision Making Model

“…It was argued that transitioning towards greener finance requires green managerial decisions, and the assessment of green competitiveness paves the way for green managerial structure of the company. Bozgulova et al [33] reviewed the methods of cost management calculation in the construction industry. It was urged that an activity-based costing method needed to be applied alongside a traditional custom-made calculation method for more accurate cost accounting in construction.…”

Factors Influencing Cost Overruns in Construction Projects of International Contractors in Vietnam

“…They involve various items such as demolition costs, ground leveling costs, and costs for construction of works, work items, temporary works, and auxiliary ones. Costs are determined based on group quantities, types of construction work, structural units or construction parts, and the corresponding general construction price measured and calculated, and several other estimated relevant costs (Bozgulova et al, 2019;Luong, Tran, & Nguyen, 2018). The purposes of cost control are to monitor the formation of costs and expenditures during construction and provide solutions to ensure the construction costs are within the approved budget.…”
