ACTG 3037 - Accounting Core II - Cost Management

Institution:

University of Denver

Subject:

Accounting

Description:

Management accounting is a field in transition, moving from a procedural focus to a strategic focus on the use of accounting information to facilitate the success of the enterprise - for manufacturing, service, governmental and not-for-profit organizations. A principal motivation for the change in management accounting is the changes in business processes and organizations in response to increased global and domestic competition. These changes include a renewed focus on the customer, aggressive cost reduction, outsourcing, downsizing and reengineering, total quality management, advanced manufacturing technologies, and increased use of information technologies. The management accountant is no longer just a reporter and analyzer of financial information, but a business partner - developing the financial and non-financial information the organization needs to be successful. As such, the management accountant plays a strategic role in the business, developing and presenting the information that is critical for the firm's success. Prerequisite: ACTG 3016, ACTG 3017, ACTG 3018, GBUS 3500.
