Cost is one of the main criteria of the assessment activities of the company, hence the issue of control, ways to reduce and manage costs occupies an important place in the management of business entities and constitutes the focus of managers. The main aim of this paper was to determine the methods of costing used by the surveyed enterprises in the region of Warmia and Mazury. The paper also examines the methods of product pricing. The research, which is based on responses from 169 companies with at least 50 employees, confirms that the application of specific costing methods depends on the type of production, the volume of production, and the organisation of the business processes. The most widely used methods were simple division based costing (23.7% of surveyed companies) and equivalence number based costing (11.2%). The research also revealed that over 14% of the surveyed companies did not use any calculation of costs, whereas pricing decisions were usually (72.8%) based on a cost formula.
