Equitable Cost
Allocation Practice
Your
Strategic Planning
Practice
Did somebody mention cost allocation?
Just kidding. This is actually pretty important.
If strategic planning is meant to secure your company’s future
viability, and …
… cost allocation is a measure of affordability, then …
… equitable cost allocation is a strategic imperative.
And yes … we call it “equitable” cost allocation for a reason.
Every business unit pays their share of operations and administrative cost ...
… in a manner that is fair, reasonable, and consistently
applied.
Without equitable cost allocation, your strategic plan
will be easy to write.
… because your business might be out of business.
