V. Conclusion
This paper revealed that the model of activity based costing can be used in every type of
organization. It has been successfully implemented and used by many large companies like industries, institutions, or public sector. Based on the literature survey we found that:
• The activity-based costing implementation revealed numerous organizational changes, which resulted from the process of implementation, such as closer connection between management accounting and other operational functions. ABC and any other costing system are not static; it can be established,therefore, like organizations change and business conditions, ABC needs to be updated and maintained. Finally, in transferring its clear picture,ABC has ability to make champions of individuals of specific goods or services.
• Activity-Based Management methods have a broad range of uses, permitting the empowering utilization of ABC information for a wide variety of company functions and operations such as process analysis, strategy support and time-based accounting,monitoring wastage, as well as quality and productivity management.
• ABC provides information for strategic decisions,such as product mix and sourcing decisions that is consistent with the long-run nature of these decisions.
• ABC allows product designers to understand the impact of different designs on cost and flexibility and modify their designs accordingly.
• ABC supports the continuous improvement process by allowing management to gain new insights into activity performance, by focusing attention on the sources of demand for activities and by permitting management to create a behavioral incentive to improve one or more aspects of manufacturing.
• ABC is a tool for managing complexity in manufacturing. ABC provides activity-based information to help managers understand and eliminate complexity. It is also a communication tool between production and marketing and product design that helps minimize product changes which create unnecessary complexity.
• The ABC designer can use the rules of ABC design to simplify the system without sacrificing the accuracy of product cost. A well designed ABC system will also have no more detail than that required by the manufacturing environment.
