Allocation of indirect costs: a process to promote more significant performance conclusions to VdA
| Resumo: | Vieira de Almeida (VdA) is one of the most successful law firms in Portugal. VdA believes that, to remain competitive in its field, its budgetary process needed to be examined to identify inefficiencies in the current method. Thus, the purpose of this article is to identify the major gaps in the firm's annual budget so that the process could be improved. For each period, VdA closely monitors its costs, nevertheless, after having analysed their nature, it was concluded that the indirect costs were not being considered. Therefore, this section aims to suggest an allocation of those expenses. |
