does the trading department have separate management ? does it sell only the company's manufactured products, does it have distributors ...
which one is the profit center for the company ? both of them or only the manufacturing department ? however both costing and manufacturing accounting are important, you can't just have costing accounting for the whole company, however you need to track your cost for pricing and management purpose ...
so I think you need to have both (you can create more than one company in the accounting system then consolidate them, this way you will be able to know each department contribution in the profit)

For manufacturing unit need to follow cost accounting because after follow this you will be able to know the cost price per unit.
This cost price will be transfer for your trading unit & that will be the cost of trading unit.
This unit will trade by adding their mark-up and all others related expense.
Trading unit must have to follow financial accounting to know the business result.
