Cost Accounting for Managers
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers budgeting and variance analysis and working capital management from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because boards increasingly expect finance to explain the business, not only report on it, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with deferred tax, lease accounting and fraud detection in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Make a decision about deferred tax without waiting for a specialist, measured against GRAP for public entities
- Explain lease accounting to someone who does not do the work
- Review fraud detection and say plainly whether it is working
- Bring financial statement preparation into line with current good practice
