Cost models

Cost allocation models are one of the most effective, yet often underestimated, controlling tools. They are used not only as a source of accounting input, but also as tools to manage resources and processes, create optimal pricing policy, build cost optimisation plans, monitor effectiveness of investment and projects, design motivational schemes and provide data input for them, manage production, HR or IT costs and respond to changes in regulatory environment.
