Description:

This course is concerned with the development and use of cost information to create, communicate, implement and control strategies.

Accordingly, this course is a problem-solving course, and as such requires you to gain familiarity with the topics by working on problems taken from practice. The topics covered include use of cost accounting in various internal decisions, transfer pricing, activity-based costing, customer profitability reporting, to name but a few. We will discuss both the benefits and limitations of accounting information in the context of various decisions and performance evaluation.
