Title
Competitive CostBased Pricing Systems for Modern Manufacturing,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
In an era of fierce international competition, manufacturing firms must have a thorough understanding of their cost structure and how that structure relates to pricing and product mix decisions. Two competing conceptual approaches to designing product cost systems that support decision making are Activitybased Costing and the Theory of Constraints. Rather than argue in favor of one to the exclusion of the other, Robert J. Campbell presents a new approach to cost system design that combines the strengths of each school of thought, thereby overcoming the significant limitations of each. The need to price the product mix in order to exploit constrained resources is advocated by the Theory of Constraints, while the need to examine resource consumption from activities, both value adding and nonvalue adding, to support the principles of JIT is advocated by Activitybased Costing.After examining the nature of a firm's cost structure as it relates to the activities performed by various functional areas, Campbell discusses the development of activitybased cost systems through an extensive example. Activitybased costing can lead to building excessively complex accounting systems that lack focus and provide confusion about shortrun versus longrun changes in the cost structure. After a chapter examining shortrun cost behavior and cost relationships, an indepth discussion of the Theory of Constraints and how it is contrasted to, and complemented by, activitybased costing follows. In these middle chapters the strengths of each methodology are identified and combined into a unified approach to product cost systems. Later chapters provide discussion on pricing strategies, customer profitability analysis, and providing cost measures that recognize either loss of learning or volumerelated efficiencies in machinepaced organizations. This book is an important resource for executives or consultants seeking to implement new cost management systems that lead to improved decision making, as well as for educators seeking to reconcile and understand Activitybased Costing and the Theory of Constraints.
