Activity-based costing (ABC) is a costing methodology that identifies and assigns indirect costs to cost objects based on the activities that consume them. This differs from traditional costing methods, which assign indirect costs to cost objects based on volume-based allocation bases, such as direct labor hours or machine hours.<\/p>\n
