Abstract

N the world practice there has been accumulated the significant positive experience on application of the target cost management system (target-costing) focused on developing the product cost, taking into account the industry average of the profit and market price. Russian companies also need to take advantages of the technology of managing the production cost of demanded goods and services at affordable prices. Target costs make a part of the organization's costs of product manufacturing, which must be adjusted without compromising quality, according to the price requirements and consumer preferences. The use of a targeted approach is possible not only for the cost management of the new, developed product, but also for traditionally produced, existing “old” product, for the purpose of its price actualization to the consumer needs. Russia's integration into the world system of distribution of goods and other material resources puts certain requirements to the state of the sea port economy and the port organizational and technical level, to the quality of stevedoring and other services. According to experts, commercial and transport vessels spend almost half of their operating time in Russian seaports, the efficiency of which depends on the volume and flexibility of cargo transportation. Tariffs and quality of services rendered are of great importance for carriers - consumers of stevedoring services. Application of the target costs system in the RF port economy is a very popular innovative management technology. The data on the Astrakhan sea port operation during 2014-2017 have been analyzed, which revealed the need to use target-costing in stevedore services management. Methodological and organizational approaches to the identification, assessment and optimization of target costs for stevedoring services are aimed at improving the efficiency of the seaport and at expanding the practice of using modern accounting management tools.
