American Bank
By: Robert S. Kaplan
Abstract
American Bank is developing a new system to compute product costs. The deregulated, more competitive environment for commercial banks has created both problems and opportunities for banking operations. In order to price existing products and assess the desirability of new product introduction, a system is needed to estimate the demands that each banking product places on the organization's resources.
