However, with ABC, businesses can now see dramatic improvements in both accu–racy and relevance when measuring product and process costs. Decisions based on this improved cost information will guide the business to an improved competitive position, both domestically and globally. If your company has between twenty and five hundred employees, it can greatly benefit from ABC without an overhaul of its current cost information systems.
Using an approach developed while solving problems for small and mid–sized companies, Douglas Hicks helps you sharpen your competitive edge while emphasizing the "total package" of cost information not just its com–putational aspects and steers you clear of the dangers encountered by measuring costs using generally accepted accounting principles. The result is a reader–accessible, comprehensive narrative covering every ABC element, including clearly defined instructions for building a cost accumulation and distribution model for any size business.
