Managerial accounting is concerned with the internal use of accounting information by managers to plan, control, and evaluate operations and personnel of the firm. The course covers two broad topics: (i) cost management systems and their use in decision making (these systems provide information about the costs of the goods and services sold by the firm, and decisions based on them include break-even analyses, pricing, and make/buy decisions); and (ii) management control systems and their use (control systems help the firm plan, execute, measure, and evaluate its operations). Topics covered include cost structures, costing systems, budgeting, variance analysis, performance measurement and evaluation, and transfer pricing.
