Managerial accounting section.

RATIONALE-WHAT LEADS TO NTEREST IN ABC?

There is a growing desire among organizations to understand their costs and the behavior of fac¬tors that drive these costs. Yet there is confusion over how to go about understanding costs and how to distinguish competing cost measurement methodologies (e.g., activity-based costing, standard costing, throughput accounting; project accounting, target costing, etc.). The result is that managers and employees are confused by mixed messages about which costs are the correct ones. Upon closer inspection, the var¬ious costing methodologies do not necessarily compete: they can coexist, be reconciled, and blended.

The principles contained in this SMA are applica-ble to any organization, regardless of size or industry. It provides those considering implementing an ABC system with information regarding:

1. The roles and responsibilities of management accountants in ABC projects;

The need for behavior change management when implementing an ABC system;
o How to design and implement an ABC system;
 How to plan an ABC project implementation; is How to ensure sustainability of an ABC systerni ands How to evaluate ABC software.

The information in this SMA will enable the read¬er to design and implement a sustainable ABC system that provides a greater understanding of product and customer costs, business process¬es, and work activities. This understanding pro¬vides an organization with the means for making better business decisions.

I want grade level research.
