The study looked at the effect of standard cost on the cost of production for some Nigerian manufacturing businesses. The investigation is conducted using a sample of 147 respondents from around 26 manufacturing companies. The replies of the respondents to various questions that concern the value relevance of standard cost in cost control in their originations are analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics approaches. First, the study's findings demonstrate that, in contrast to some claims that typical cost approaches are out of style, roughly 85% of the manufacturing companies selected continue to use these methods for cost control throughout their various organizations. Once more, the analysis demonstrates that these manufacturing organizations chose to keep using standard cost because it is beneficial in lowering both raw material costs and organizational overhead costs. However, it seems out of style to apply standard cost to staff costs. It is advised that manufacturing organizations follow the example of those businesses that are reducing their costs through the application of standard costs and find a way to effectively apply it to labor costs. The researcher concluded that standard costing is extensively utilized in Nigerian manufacturing organizations and that it improves effective planning, control, and decision-making processes in the business. The deletion of unprofitable items, the provision of costing information, and cost control are all made possible by this standard costing for manufacturing enterprises.
