Payroll: The Key to Activity Based Costing (ABC)

The ABECAS Insight Accounting Software system is a powerful “Activity-Based Costing” (ABC) System. It is an accounting solution that is easily mapped to your business processes.

If you want to know how your costs are structured and what opportunities exist for cost reduction, then Activity Based Costing (ABC) is the answer.

ABC allows you to understand your costs at an activity level and see a breakdown by type of expense for each activity (work phase or task). This breakdown is by a “production unit”, often referred to as a “cost center” (job or project). Hence, ABC is a three dimensional breakdown of costs by cost center, activity and account. This provides a level of detail that allows meaningful cost control decisions to be made.

Why is Payroll important as a source of ABC data?

There are many ways that a nursery can cut costs and increase revenue… some more creative than others!

Using ABECAS Insight from Argos Software is one way (from cost accounting, production management, to labor reduction processes) but there are many more. I wanted to share with you this 2-minute video from Greenhouse Management Online  about a fellow grower who has found a way to save the environment while increasing revenue!

It is really interesting – Alan, President of Argos Software.
