Activity based costs

SShanna10y ago
Hi sir, I just wonder the reason why "Activity based costs are not the same as relevant costs for the purpose of short-run decision making ."

Relevant costs are when there are extra costs being incurred. Activity based costs are simply splitting the costs between various activities - it does not mean there are extra costs.
