| description | A major concern of any business is its cost structure and management. To maintain competitiveness in any industry, a company's costing must be as accurate as possible. Changes in manufacturing environment such as the application of Advance Manufacturing Technology (AMT) and the global competitiveness in all industries also contribute to a drive towards more accurate costing. To address this, companies are looking more and more into Activity Based Costing (ABC) as a possible solution. This project gives an example of such a company in the aerospace manufacturing industry. |
