Abstract: | A comparison of German and Anglo-Saxon cost accounting shows that linkages in the area of life-cycle costing are possible and useful as it provides additional conceptual support for developing a life-cycle costing framework. The different approaches of life-cycle costing used in the Anglo-Saxon and German accounting disciplines can be mutually beneficial. The possibility of relating Anglo-Saxon life-cycle costing to German multiple-stage fixed cost accounting provides a new design for life-cycle cost accounting with practical relevance in the area of marketing cost management. |
