Activity-Based Costing, ABC, is a strategic cost-allocation method that provides enterprises with better understanding of how cost flows through their organizations. This report analyzes the implementation of ABC within various enterprises. Through case study analysis, the difficulties that arise with the implementation of ABC are revealed. The enablers and barriers to implementation of ABC are also obtained. This analysis provides guidance to optimal ABC implementation strategies. These strategies are applicable, in general, to the United States defense aircraft industry.
