Activity-based costing (ABC) is commonly used by manufacturers and contractors to learn which products and customers are profitable, identify and eliminate waste, and more accurately price products or bid jobs going forward. With ABC, you assign cost codes to each activity completed based on the resources consumed. Cost codes define the activity; the equipment, materials and labor used to complete it; and how long it takes to finish the task. This information can provide insight into real-time job performance, excessive spending and growth opportunities. Software solutions can help shorten the learning curve. Contact us to learn more about ABC.
Business owners: No matter how busy things get, don’t overlook the informative value of your financial statements. Assuming you follow U.S. GAAP or similar reporting standards, yours will have three major components: 1) The income statement, which shows revenue and expenses over the accounting period. 2) The balance sheet, which tallies assets, liabilities and net worth to take a snapshot of your financial position. 3) The statement of cash flows, which shows cash inflows and outflows from operating, financing and investing activities. Financial statements contain a wealth of data that can allow you to identify trends, both good and bad, affecting the business. Contact us for help.
