Determining the cost of goods and services is a crucial aspect in managerial decision-making, especially in the service industry that has a diversity of activities and resource use, such as beauty salons. This study aims to apply the Time-Driven Activity-Based Costing (TDABC) method in calculating the cost of service products at the Chata Nailart Beauty Salon. The TDABC method was chosen because it is able to provide a more accurate measurement of costs through the calculation of the actual time consumed by each service activity. This study uses a quantitative descriptive approach with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation of operational activities. The results of the study show that the application of the TDABC method produces a more accurate calculation of the cost of services compared to the conventional method that has been used by salons, because it is able to identify time and resource consumption in detail. Academically, this research contributes by expanding the context of the application of the TDABC method in the small-scale service sector, especially the beauty salon industry, which was previously rarely the object of cost accounting studies. The practical implications of these findings suggest that TDABC can assist management in determining competitive selling prices, improving operational efficiency, and supporting data-driven decision-making of actual costs.
