Question:
Retrieve any report in the Starbucks organization that allocates common costs to a division, product, or service. Recast that report with unallocated costs and comment on the usefulness of that revised report.
If you cannot identify specific actual amounts, make a reasonable estimate and apply the tool as if the data were factual.
If you are unable to identify any report with allocated costs, create a report that you think may apply to your organization and treat the data as if it were factual.
Include:
- The activity and time period you used
- The inputs you used
- Your results
- Any implications from your results
