Spring. 2.5 credits. Letter grades only (no audit).

Enrollment limited to: MS in Healthcare Leadership/Executive MBA dual degree students. Offered in New York City at Cornell Tech.

D. Szpiro.

This course is designed for future managers who want to use accounting information within their organizations to improve decision-making. The class is divided into three units: costs and analysis, costing systems, and decision making. In the first unit, we learn about cost definitions, behavior, estimation, and cost-volume-profit analysis. In the second section, we discuss the pros and cons of costing systems with an emphasis on accounting for manufacturing. Finally, we explore internal planning and decision making topics, such as budgeting, performance measurement, and outsourcing decisions. Instruction is a mixture of lecture and case discussion. Grading is based on three exams, short quizzes, and class contribution.
