This is an old saying that keeps on coming back to my mind every now and then. This is because there are discussions going on Activity Based Costing (ABC) lately. These discussions are happening in person, workshops, networking sites on the Internet. The talks are about the results that it provides and the requirement of data for creating and maintaining the ABC models. It is now well known to the people that having an ABC system would provide a better understanding of the costs and hence the profitability of the products or customers. But at the same time they are worried about the efforts that they have to put to collect the data. It is true that, this requires some efforts to create the ...

YES!! necessary but not sufficient! Key is to build and live up to a sustainable Multi Dimensional Activity Based Costing System which is linked with an easy to use semi automatic update process. It is important that all costs are linked and...

What Indian Business Education don’t provide for the Environment. Value generated and transacted in Business is the hallmark and pillar of the skill generated from a Business education. A business when it sell products in India, they don’t worry about the affordability of their wares by the masses let alone functionality which may be part of it. A business incurs around 40% of fixed cost component along with may be 30% variable cost and probably the rest as ‘conversion cost’. What Business education teach us and what is followed in  Efficient economies is they fix a breakeven point say 100 units of sale. These 100 units will provide the years cost incurred. After this point they will start ...

I was unaware of high corruption level in bangalore. It was till my collegues bike was lost and he went to the Police station to complain. And there it was, his bike was lying right there in the police station.. The Policemen told him to pay 10,000 or he would not get his bike back.. He was terrified but he told he will complain to higher authorities and the policemen laughed.. They said just one thing.. "Right now it is 10,00.. go to the higher authorities and the price will rise higher!!".. Shocked and surprised he went to the atm and brought the money and got his bike back.. Is this the situatuion everywhere?? I told my friend that too is responsible for this corruption.. To this he said, Don't think that you can fight these people who are backed up by even more powerful policticiains, or you might end up in terrible situations!!

Windows Live SkyDrive (previously Windows Live Folders) is part of Microsoft's Windows Live range of services. SkyDrive allow users to upload their files to the computing cloud, and then access them from a web browser. The SkyDrive service utilizes Windows Live ID to limit access to the files the user has uploaded, allowing them to keep the files private, share with contacts, or make the files public. Publicly-shared files do not require a Windows Live ID to access. Windows Live SkyDrive The service currently offers 5GB, with a maximum upload file size of 50MB. Up to five files can be uploaded each time. Optionally, an ActiveX tool can be installed to allow drag-and-drop uploading from Windows Explorer. On its launch, Windows Live Folders (as it was then) was provided as a limited managed beta and available only to a few testers in the United States. On August 1, 2007, the service was expanded to a wider audience. Shortly after on August 9, 2007 Windows Live Folders was renamed...

Hi Friends, I am sharing with the reviews of IBM on work culture, growth prospects salary, done by their employees. Please share your views. A Project Manager wrote: What I like about IBM: "IBM offers a very flexible working environment. In most cases, no one will ask you what time you come or go from office. Neither the logs of the swipe card will be analyzed to take some action against you in normal circumstances. In special circumstances, the company can even allow you to work from home. No blocking of internet or phones . All in all, you are "not" working in a jail. It has a wealth of knowledge..... " What I don't like about IBM: "Sometimes you feel that there are too many processes to follow. The company is so huge that it is a challenge to make people aware of existing processes. I have often seen it happening that sometimes small groups within IBM try to develop their own processes, often unaware that such a best practice already exists and can be leveraged. Ofcourses, Lou...

Saying no is perhaps the most important productivity tool that exists. Saying no is an art. It is also perhaps the most difficult thing to do for most people. I used to dread the occasions where I knew I will have to say no and I used to prepare for such situations for days. Now, I almost look forward to saying no to people and I actually enjoy the process! Find out how the change happened. 1. You are doing everyone a favour by saying no. Whenever you are saying NO to someone, remember that it is for their benefit! By saying no, you are • Giving the person an opportunity to look for someone who can do the job better. • Avoiding negative feelings about the person. 2. Visualize the alternative (to saying no) in vivid detail. • You will feel bad and will curse yourself for accepting the task. • You will do a bad job. • You will hate the person for putting this on to you. • The person will hate you for doing a bad job. • You should not have said yes, if you were not going to do a good...
