KEY GUIDELINES
1. Cost-benefit approach
Should be used in order to spend resources if they
promote decision making that better achieves
organisational goals in relation to the costs
of those resources
2. Use of different costs for different purposes
A cost concept used for the external reporting purpose
need not be the appropriate concept for the purpose of
internal routine reporting to managers.
3. Full recognition to behavioural as well as technical
considerations
