    If they are about ABC and to do a calc will this be in Q2,3,4 mainly?

    If so is being able to do a basic ABC calc sufficient?

    I would think it is more likely in Q1. Wherever it might come up, all that would be needed is a basic calculation.

    Perfect. So i know to.. identify the drivers.. get the total no of drivers for each activity..

    Then get a cost per drive value and apply to the no of activities each product undertakes to get a cost for each product based on activity usage of each activity..

    Any thing else?

    Thanks

    That’s it, but be able to explain the advantages of ABC: better understanding of costs, profits and strategies.
