Abstract:
The objective of this industrial research is to apply the Activity-Based Costing, which is the cost allocation system from resources to activities and activities to products, in motorcycle part manufacturing factory. The steps of Activity-Based Costing system application begin with set the objective, analyze and identify value added level for these activities and their cost, then define cost drivers and cost driver rates to find the cost of activities, and finally the product cost is calculated. The research outcome reveals that to apply production cost system by using Activity-Based Costing would lead to the accurate product cost and also reflects the roots of cost, which are considered for cost reduction by cuttingor decreasing the non-value added activities. Since fully Activity-Based Costing system needs more resources including manpower, wasting time, and others, there for requires the appropriate consideration for each factory.
