Why are cost drivers most important?

  • 1.  Why are cost drivers most important?

    Cost drivers directly influence product pricing, customer profitability and make vs buy decisions

    Example: If logistics cost is driven by number of deliveries but allocated on sales value, high-frequency customers look profitable when they are actually loss-making
