Pricing and Indirect Cost Allocation — A Note

Pricing and Indirect Cost Allocation — A Note Abstract: Companies that use cost‐based pricing usually allocate indirect costs to their products. An inherent problem with this is that, while product prices are a function of the total cost, indirect cost allocation methods based on revenues depend on the product prices. This paper shows how to simultaneously determine unique product prices (with unequal markup rates) and cost allocations using the relative revenue method. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Accounting & Finance Wiley

Abstract: Companies that use cost‐based pricing usually allocate indirect costs to their products.

This paper shows how to simultaneously determine unique product prices (with unequal markup rates) and cost allocations using the relative revenue method.
