摘要：Target system is one of the most important techniques which can help organizations to improve cost-based performances. In this method, the products' sale price is anticipated before production processes start, based on surveys in the market and manufacturers try to design and manufacture a product according to the predetermined cost to ensure the management's desirable profit. Meanwhile, it should have a desirable quality and benefit from a competitive status, in a way that absorbs customers' satisfaction in suitable manner. In this research, we will focus on studying the obstacles of applying a target costing system in firms accepted in Tehran Stock Exchange.
