Abstract: Abstract An understanding of cost behaviour by the accounting function contributes to effective and reliable managerial decisions. Failure to do so leads to bad cost planning, bad price settings, bad cash management and bad allocation of resources, the cumulative results of which lead inevitably to the demise of the firm.
