Traditional cost accounting systems are insuffıcient to provide accurate cost information and Activity Based Costing insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(ABC); is suggested by ntaıty academicians and accountants as a better cost accounting system. Additionally, high competition increased the marketing activities and consequently the marketing costs of the companies.
