Quality costing in articles published in Polish journals
Journal Title: Zeszyty Teoretyczne Rachunkowości - Year 2018, Vol 2018, Issue 98
Abstract
In the twentieth century, with the rapid changes in business practice, the importance of quality began to increase significantly, both from enterprises and customers perspective. The increased importance of quality and the emergence of new methods and tools supporting quality management has caused in- creased attention to quality costs and quality costing systems. The aim of the article is to present the state of scientific achievements in the field of quality costing as one of the solutions supporting modern cost management. To achieve the purpose of this article, it was necessary to conduct literature analysis on the basis of selected books dealing with management accounting and quality management, as well as selected Polish journals. The articles were chosen from journals registered in BazEkon. The study covered the years 1977–2017, however, due to the varied access to journals, the study period differs for individual periodicals. The research made it possible to identify a research gap which refers to the context of a wider application of quality costing as an integral part of modern strategic systems of management accounting. The analysis shows that the quality cost calculation has been popular in Poland since the 1990s. Issues discussed in both scientific and practical publications prove that interest in this solution is still strong. In many publications the concepts of quality, quality costs and model approaches to the calculation of quality costs, prepared by the greatest authorities (so-called Quality Gurus) dealing with this issue are presented. However, there are also publications presenting authors' concepts in this area. The transformation of quality management and creation of many new tools supporting quality management resulted in a change in the nature of quality costing, which is now an integral part of the management process.<br/><br/>
