ABC Methodology

Activity-based costing (ABC) is a process that fairly assigns operating costs to individual products based on how products "consume" costs throughout the supply chain.

ABC identifies work processes in the warehouse, during transportation, and at the store, and then allocates these costs to products based on their "fair share."

To gather the activity-based costs and calculate profitability in this study, Willard Bishop multiple sources:

Observations and Time Studies – Willard Bishop studied the department-level operation at each chain to fully understand and map department activities and calculate department space utilization.

Interviews – Willard Bishop interviewed key individuals at each retailer to collect several important pieces of information, including distribution center procedures as well as store operating and merchandising information.

Internal Reports – Willard Bishop collected operating reports to document several key warehouse and store-level costs, including wages, rent, taxes, utilities, insurance, etc.

Performance Data – Each retailer provided Willard Bishop with retail, cost, and movement data for each item in the study covering the entire 52-week period of 2012. Each retailer also provided vendor-specific payment terms and trade funds data for the same time period. The trade and terms funds data were used to calculate the adjusted gross profit contribution of each study SKU.

ABC Methodology

To support the SuperStudy™ analysis, Willard Bishop utilized a series of department-specific ABC models (Produce, Service Deli, Bakery, Fresh Meat, Seafood, Grocery, Frozen, Dairy, Package Deli, GM, HBC, etc.) to calculate retailer costs for all activities in each supply chain area.

The findings in this study represent the true profit results of each category after subtracting all retailer costs to handle the product in the category.

The Dairy Department Generates the Highest True Profits Per Space

Dairy’s moderate footprint (715 square feet, which is the seventh largest of the thirteen departments), provides strong performance per space. Departments, like Meat and Deli/Foodservice, which both have smaller footprints, don’t fair as well in terms of true profit/ SFF due to high ABCs. These departments are affected by their heavy labor requirements, which negatively impact profits.
