Answer / h.r. sreepada bhagi
As mentioned in some of the answers above ABC Analysis
refers to classification of inventory on the basis of volume
and value for better control and management.
In costing ABC also refers to Activity Based Costing as
mentioned in some answers above. But answer to this question
is inventory classification and not Activity Based Costing.

Answer / r.chandrasekaran
Activity Based Costing is called ABC analysis. Cost of each activity on a particular product will be maintained separately to know the cost of production of the particular product, when a company has multi product mix production. For example, sales and administration expenses will normally be maintained in general. If keep analysing the cost of each activity for each product, then the real cost of production will be known under this ABC analysis.

Answer / khemraj k
simply'
A-items are goods which annual consumption value is the highest. The top 70-80% of the annual consumption value of the company typically accounts for only 10-20% of total inventory items.
C-items are, on the contrary, items with the lowest consumption value. The lower 5% of the annual consumption value typically accounts for 50% of total inventory items.
B-items are the interclass items, with a medium consumption value. Those 15-25% of annual consumption value typically accounts for 30% of total inventory items.
