Onassis Catering is a Greek company that provides passenger and
crew meals to airlines operating out of two international airports
in Athens and Corfu. The operations at the two airports are managed
separately, and top management believes that there may be benefits
to greater sharing of information between the two operations.
To better compare the two operations, an ABC system has been
designed with the active participation of the managers at both
airports. The ABC system is based on the following activity cost
pools and activity measures:
Activity Cost PoolActivity MeasureMeal preparationNumber of
mealsFlight-related activitiesNumber of flightsCustomer
serviceNumber of customersOther (costs of idle capacity and
organization-sustaining costs)NA
The operation at Athens International Airport (AIA) serves 1
million meals annually on 5,000 flights for 10 different airlines.
(Each airline is considered one customer.) The annual cost of
running the AIA airport operation, excluding only the costs of raw
materials for meals, totals €3,816,600. (Note: The
currency in Greece is the euro, denoted by €.)
To help determine the activity rates, employees were interviewed
and asked how they divided their time among the four major
activities. The results of employee interviews at AIA are displayed
below:
