uses only volume-based measures will overcost its lowvolume products T ABC will be most useful in estimating fixed costs T Two major influences on costs are complexity and diversity T Volume-based measures will tend to overcost high volume products 45 F Activities that drive resource requirements are known as activity drivers F ABC is required for GAAP financial reporting F ABC will benefit a JIT operation more than a non-JIT operation F External failure costs are made up solely of opportunity costs F 10 The acceptable quality level is the point where internal failure costs are minimized
