Case Study, cost accounting, management accounting, cost behavior, cost allocation, managementAbstract
This case provides a framework to discuss many of the concepts in cost or management accounting. Flexibility is available to limit the focus of the case to a review of cost behavior and cost allocation or to expand the discussion to include cost behavior, cost allocation, incremental decision making, performance evaluation, and transfer pricing. These opportunities are highlighted in the case teaching notes. This case can be used effectively as a capstone in a first-semester undergraduate or graduate cost management course or to review these concepts in an advanced (second-semester) cost or management accounting course.
