周期成本處理 - LIFECYCLE COSTING

Within the context of environmental accounting， lifecycle costing is a technique which requires the full environmental consequences， and， therefore， costs， arising from production of a product to be taken account across its whole lifecycle， literally ‘from cradle to grave’

識別環境成本 - IDENTIFYING ENVIRONMENTAL COSTS

Much of the information that is needed to prepare environmental management accounts could actually be found in a business ‘general ledger. A close review of it should reveal the costs of materials， utilities and waste disposal， at the least. The main problem is, however, that most of the costs will have to be found within the category of ’general overheads ‘if they are to be accurately identified. Identifying them could be a lengthy process， particularly in a large organization. The fact that environmental costs are often ’hidden ‘in this way makes it difficult for management to identify opportunities to cut environmental costs and yet it is crucial that they do so in a world which is becoming increasingly regulated and where scarce resources are becoming scarcer.

It is equally important to allocate environmental costs to the processes or products, which give rise to them. Only by doing this can an organization make well-informed business decisions? For example， a pharmaceutical company may be deciding whether to continue with the production of one of its drugs. In order to incorporate environmental aspects into its decision， it needs to know exactly how many products are input into the process compared to its outputs; How much waste is created during the process; how much labor and fuel is used in making the drug; how much packaging the drug uses and what percentage of that is recyclable etc. Only by identifying these costs and allocating them to the product can an informed decision be made about the environmental effects of continued production.

In 2003，the UNDSD identified four management accounting techniques for the identification and allocation of environmental costs： input/outflow analysis，flow cost accounting， activity based costing and lifecycle costing. These are referred to later under ‘different methods of accounting for environmental costs’。
