MOMN074S6 ADVANCED MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING
Coursework 2014/2015
Traditional cost accounting has been based on allocating a subjective or calculated range of indirect expenses to direct costs. Activity Based Costing (ABC) offers an alternative approach. Much of the textbook work on ABC refers to examples from large-scale manufacturing, yet according to the UK government Statistics Office (Chamberlin, 2011) small and medium–sized enterprises (fewer than 250 employees) account for 99.9 per cent of all enterprises in the UK private sector, whilst representing 59.8 per cent of employment and 49.0 per cent of turnover. The UK services industries account for around 75% of total value–added in the UK and the Public Sector accounts for about 45% of total UK spending.
Required:
Discuss how a UK public sector organisation might use ABC to (a) produce product costs for services, and to (b) evaluate the internal efficiency, quality and profitability per product or service line. Both benefits and drawbacks must be considered.

World markets for petroleum and other liquid fuels have entered a period of dynamic change—in both supply and demand. Potential new supplies of oil from tight and shale resources have raised optimism for significant new sources of global liquids. The potential for growth in demand for liquid fuels is focused on the emerging economies of China, India, and the Middle East, while liquid fuels demand in the United States, Europe, and other regions with well-established oil markets seems to have peaked. After a long period of sustained high oil prices, improvements in conservation and efficiency have reduced or slowed the growth of liquid fuels use among mature oil consumers. The changes in the overall market environment have led the U.S. and Europe to reassess long-term trends in liquid fuels markets for the 2015.
