Course Description

Charts
Managerial accounting is not as widely used as other forms of accounting, nor is it as known. While companies concern themselves with financial accounting methods like audits, budgets and financial statements, they often completely ignore the forward-thinking methods of managerial accounting.

Managerial accounting is a form of accounting that deals not only with financial information, but information that is not always easy to quantify into numbers and reports. Things like employee performance, efficiency, product rates and customer satisfaction stats are all things that managerial accountants deal with. They take that information and put it into reports that are easy for managers to understand. By doing this, managerial accountants help managers make the important decisions to turn the company in a new direction, or help it continue on as a profitable and respected organization.

Financial accounting looks at the company as a whole. The net profit of the company, the revenue and expenses of the company and more. It does not look at the parts that make up the whole. This is what managerial accounting does. It takes the company and breaks it into parts that can be studied and analyzed. Maybe one department is bringing down the rest like a lead weight attached to a strong chain. If this is happening, the methods of managerial accounting will find it and that will help managers take the information and use it to make the company better and more efficient as a result.

Managerial accounting is not new, but it is revolutionary and despite originating over 100 years ago, companies are only now realizing the true power of this amazing form of company management.

Lesson One: What Is Managerial Accounting?

Accounting, like music, comes in many different forms. It is not a single entity that encompasses all needs, but a varied type of specialty that has the ability to help an organization in a variety of ways.

Lesson Two: Managerial Accounting in the Organization

Before the 1980's, management accountants were seen as something that was not needed in business because while business had changed greatly in the previous 60 years, managerial accounting had changed little.

Lesson Three: Specifics of Managerial Accountants

As we have mentioned previously, managerial accountants have a wide and varied series of skills and abilities that they bring to an organization.

Lesson Four: Traditional Managerial Accounting

Like anything, managerial accounting has changed over the years to keep up with the changing world. Companies work differently than they once did, and that means things like managerial accounting have had to adapt to stay alive.

Lesson Five: Looking at Policies and Company Components

Companies have set policies in place that dictate how they do things, how they make money and how they produce products and services through the help of the employees who make up their workforce.

Lesson Six: Activity Based Costing

Activity based costing is a type of costing model that identifies activities within an organization, and assigns the cost of each of those activities to all the products according to the actual consumption of each of them.

Lesson Seven: Balanced Scorecard

This last lesson looks at the balanced scorecard, which is a tool used for performance management.
