Actual cost is the total amount of materials, labor costs, and any directly associated overhead costs that can be charged to a specific project. This is different from the standard cost, although both approaches are often used to evaluate the profitability of a given project.
As an item is built in the manufacturing process, the costs from components, conversion costs, and overhead conversion costs are accumulated in Work in Process (WIP). The end item's actual cost is the net cost in WIP for the production ID or production schedule. When the production ID is completed and closed for accounting and the items are put away into inventory, then the WIP costs are moved to finished goods. In other words, the net debit to WIP is the actual cost.
