Discussion Post: Activity Bases Costing and Management
We will be focused on activity based costing and management. For your discussion board post this week I would like you to read about activity based costing in chapter five of our textbook. Then I would like you in your post to summarize what is meant by this concept. Read case 5-70 (attached) and answer the three questions.
o Is the controller, Erin Jackson, acting ethically?
o Is the production manager, Alan Tyler, acting ethically?
o What are Jackson's ethical obligations? To the president? To her friend?
The response should include a reference list. Using one-inch margins, Times New Roman 12 pnt font, double-space and APA style of writing and citations.
