process efficiency etc)
• Profitability reporting
• Process analysis
• Learning & corrective actions
For example:
• Fully absorbed and incremental costing
• Adaptive operation & cost based
planning, budgeting & forecasting
• What-if analysis & planning
• Product, process, channel, & customer

• Enterprise optimization (e.g. make vs.
buy, outsource etc)

Resource Consumption Accounting
• RCA Inherits Core Principles from German Cost Management
– Grenzplankostenrechnung (GPK) Translated – Flexible Analytic Cost Planning & Control
– Well Established Standard Costing System
– Principles in Practice since late 1940’s
– Implemented by 3,000+ Companies
• RCA Integrates
– Activity-based Costing &Throughput Concepts
• RCA Creates an Integrated Economic Model of Operations for Decision Making
– Enterprise Optimization
– Principle Based
– Superior Marginal Analytics

RCA Information
• Cost Information
– The focus of RCA is ensuring costs reflect the
underlying resources and processes engaged to create
value for products, services, customers
– RCA retains the cause and effect relationships between
resources and their output to generate cost information
• Resource Capacity Costs
• Fixed Costs
• Proportional Costs
• Marginal Costs
• Clear Insights into Avoidable and Unavoidable Costs

RCA Information
• Segmentation of Information
– RCA’s approach to modeling the organization’s
operations at the resource level results in information
that can be viewed in many dimensions
• Product or Service Cost
• Customer Cost
• Distribution Channel cost
– Match cost information to revenue dimensions

The RCA Model
1. Identify the Resources
– Identify the organization’s highest level managerial objectives
– Identify the resources that produce those objectives
– Identify the support resources
– Capture any other organizational resources
– Resources are grouped into logical resource pools based on their
characteristics, output, and relationship to managerial objectives
2. Identify the Resource Relationships
– Map the cause and effect relationships between resources
– Map the flow of resources between resource pools to final
managerial objectives
• Track fixed and proportional relationships

The RCA Model
• At this point, you have created a cause and effect
based model of your operations.
– You can see resource capacity issues and
opportunities.
3.Apply Costs to the Model
– Resource costs are determined and applied to the
modeled relationships
You can now see the cost of operations and have
the operational, capacity, and cost information for
decisions and planning.

Plastic Film Extrusion
Pre-RCA Issues
Product costs fluctuated based on unrelated changes in volume
and mix
Products manufactured on newer machines receive greater cost
allocations even if the products were identical
Old machines were fully utilized and new machines underutilized
Sales reps lowered selling prices (non-strategically) to increase
volume in an effort to decrease allocated cost per unit and thus
‘improve’ their margin
RCA Results
Product cost is stable even if machine is replaced by a new one
Allocated fixed cost changes due to volume and mix resolved
Machine utilization issues resolved by cost depreciation
Margin manipulation eliminated; in fact, it was shown that
Standard Costing overstates fixed costs.

Semi-conductor Business
• Product Pricing
– Life cycle product pricing vs. short-term product pricing
– Because equipment is old (fully depreciated) RCA provided a
window on the long-term profitability of product decisions
• Cost Attribution
– Proper attribution of common fixed costs to market segments
e.g., machine excess/idle capacity to a product group
– The gross margin of the product group reduced by 63%
• Batch Sizes
– Understand the effect of smaller batch sizes on profitability
– Normal batch = 24; most often manufactured small batch
product had a 22% drop in gross margin at batch = 12
• Product Mix
– Understand factory bottlenecks for different volume and mix
– Know how the bottleneck moves for a given volume and mix
– Simulations pointed to two potential bottlenecks

Business Scenario
A green-field automotive original equipment manufacturer (OEM)
Acquired their way into the automotive business by buying the
rights to make and re-badge a model from another OEM
Large SAP implementation
The need to integrate highly automated support areas (e.g.,
automated storage and retrieval warehouse) into the costing
model
RCA Cost Model
Significant royalty costing at various levels in the BOM
The ability to run the cost model from resources through to
products and sales (i.e., typical costing) or to run the model
backwards from projected sales volumes to resource demand
Effective capacity management a primary objective also for
support areas
