As you can see, the north and south had different methods of living their lives, but eventually it led to conflict between one another. As said before, there
Article Review: Target Cost Management An article by Louise Ross puts target costing in effect with agricultural and the farming industry, explaining how this system may already be partially in use. Louise Ross provides evidence of the advantages and disadvantages of target costing within the food supply chain. According to Ross, participants in the food supply chain were already using some form of target cost management, but the system was not formalized into specific aspects. Ross (2008)
