Does your organization have a cost accounting challenge you want to tackle? In this project, student-consultants working in teams will apply their knowledge of the concept and characteristics of cost with specific emphasis on decision-making situations that require working with accounting information toward the solution of an issue of your choice. They will explore the application of costs to process, job order and standard cost accounting systems. Concepts such as activity-based costing, just-in-time inventory systems and material requirements planning are also covered. The students will develop a written report and virtual presentation for your organization upon completion of the project.
