Activity Based Costing

by Ernest Glad, Hugh Becker

Accounting systems are undergoing fundamental changes in corporate managements' attempts to adjust to the rapidly changing technological and business environments. This is primarily reflected in the form of modern management accounting systems, such as activity-based costing and management systems. This book provides an overview of activity-based costing (ABC) concepts and principles. All relevant aspects of ABC are explained as well as the relationship with other systems such as quality management, productivity management and capacity management, which form the nucleus of an activity-based maangement (ABM) system.
