Applicectien of Activity-bades Costiug in the Value Chain Analysis

Inter-firm relationships introduce new challenges for management accounting. One such challenge is to provide the information for the coordination and optimization of activities across firms in a value chain. Value analysis is a method to meet this challenge. However, little empirical evidence currently exists on the use of this analysis in practice. This paper presents an introduction for a exploratory case study on the use of an activity-based costing model by the U.K. retail firm J. Sainsbury's and a group of 36 suppliers for supporting supply chain management practices. This cost model is based on the principles of value chain analysis, and integrates cost information of firms across the value chain. It is expected from this case study, we can get apocalypse for further studies on value chain accounting in China.
