Descriptions of the six business functions in the value chain are as follows:
1. Research and development: the creation and development of ideas related to new products, services,
or processes.
2. Design: the detailed development and engineering of products, services, or processes.
3. Production: the collection and assembly of resources to produce a product or deliver a service.
4. Marketing: the process that informs potential customers about the attributes of products or services, and
leads to the sale of those products or services.
5. Distribution: the process established to deliver products or services to customers.
6. Customer Service: product or service support activities provided to customers.
1–3.
Value-added activities are activities that customers perceive as adding utility to the goods or services they
purchase. Nonvalue-added activities do not add value to the goods or services.
1–4.
Differential costs are important for managerial decision making, but other cost data can provide
management with additional important information. For example, inventory values and costs of goods sold
are important for income tax and financial reporting purposes as well as for most bonus and cost-plus
contracting purposes. Costs for performance evaluation are not necessarily differential costs. Companies try
to recover all costs, hence some estimate of total costs is needed. (This could be an opportunity to discuss
short-run and long-run costs with students, noting that in the long run, all costs must be covered.)
