Cumulative Average-Time Learning Model

Home » CMA Glossary Term » Cost Accounting » Cumulative Average-Time Learning Model

The Cumulative Average-Time Learning Model is a cost accounting method used to estimate labor costs by averaging the time taken to produce each unit cumulatively. As production experience increases, the cumulative average time per unit typically decreases, reflecting improved efficiency. This model helps in forecasting future costs and setting pricing strategies by analyzing the cumulative average of production times.
