ACCT 6205 - Managerial Accounting I

Credits: 2

Demonstrates techniques for maximizing shareholder value by correctly assessing the financial outcomes of commonly recurring types of operating decisions. Techniques for identifying alternatives, assessing relevant costs, and choosing a course of action are illustrated with case studies involving decisions on pricing (including special order and private label pricing), production alternatives (including make or buy), and allocation of care resources. Topics include cost behavior, cost-volume-profit relations, cost system design and interpretation (including the use of actual costs and standard costs), and identifying the costs and revenues relevant to decisions. The course will probably have a case orientation. Prerequisite: ACCT 6201 .
