Para lo anterior, se estudiará y analizará la evolución del sistema de costos moderno en sus cuatro Fases según Kaplan y Cooper, adicionalmente, se realizará recolección de información primaria cómo; observación directa, aplicación de instrumentos y entrevistas para establecer la Fase de Costos en que se encuentra la empresa analizada y sus implicaciones en la toma de decisiones. El hallazgo de mayor significancia del estudio realizado se centra fundamentalmente en que pudo corroborarse la existencia de subsidio cruzado entre productos que se presenta en el costeo tradicional, como por ejemplo, la leche líquida pasterizada donde el tiempo de proceso es mayor en la medida que se reduce el tamaño de la bolsa y sin embargo el costeo tradicional calcula para todos una tasa de CIF equivalente.Palabras clave: Costeo basado en actividades, Inductor de costos, actividades primarias, centro de actividades, actividades de apoyo, centro de costos, parámetros de consumo, recursos.   Universidad de Cartagena 2010-01-01 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion application/pdf https://revistas.unicartagena.edu.co/index.php/panoramaeconomico/article/view/399 10.32997/2463-0470-vol.18-num.18-2010-399 Panorama Económico Journal; Vol. 18 (2010); 215-230 Panorama Económico; Vol. 18 (2010); 215-230 Panorama Económico; v. 18 (2010); 215-230 2463-0470 0122-8900 10.32997/2463-0470-vol.18-num.18-2010 spa https://revistas.unicartagena.edu.co/index.php/panoramaeconomico/article/view/399/350 /*ref*/Gerts F.
