Caracteristici

For upper level undergraduate and MBA Management Accounting courses.
 
Atkinson is a managerially-oriented book that focuses on both quantitative and qualitative aspects of classical and contemporary managerial accounting
 
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 
Atkinson is a managerially-oriented book with aspects of both classical and contemporary managerial accounting. What would you consider to be contemporary topics in Managerial Accounting today?
 
While Atkinson maintains its classic managerial accounting focus on planning, and decision making about product mix, customer mix, and capacity, it also now includes new discussions relevant to some of the more modern topics in managerial accounting, including ethics, environmental issues,  and life cycle costing and approaches. 
 


  
How do you use cases in this course?  Would you be interested in using Harvard Business School cases if did not have to go through the steps to order them? 
 
Atkinson now includes several new case studies, including for the first time, Harvard Business School cases. These are "authors' choice" cases selected because they are shorter cases and easier to prepare for. Also included is the Sippican case which is a brand new, recently developed Harvard case study. The Harvard case studies are on time-driven Activity Based Costing linked to strategy and activity based budgeting, and on the Balanced Scorecard and include Harvard instructor case notes in  the instructors' resources. There is also a new Institute of Management Accounting case on how Mercedes-Benz used target costing to develop its new SUV, and another IMA case on improving processes in order entry, with linkages to value changing ideas.
 
New Harvard Cases:
Sippican
Midwest Office Products 
Chadwick--abridged
Domestic Auto Parts
   


 
How much emphasis do you place on activity-based costing in your course? Are you familiar with Robert Kaplan and his work on activity-based cost management and the Balanced Scorecard?
 
Robert S. Kaplan is considered the world's leading expert on activity-based costing and the Balanced Scorecard. For this edition, he has revised and reorganized Chapter 4, “Activity-Based Cost Systems”. In the 5th edition, Kaplan, co-creator of ABC, integrates the new time-driven ABC approach with the conventional ABC approach. Two new cases help students learn how to build their own ABC models.
 
Kaplan has also revised Chapter 9, “The Balanced Scorecard.” This is a comprehensive full chapter treatment of how to translate a strategy into a strategy map and Balanced Scorecard. Written by the co-creator of this concept as well,  the 5th edition also contains two new cases for students to gain experience with the topic.
 
 
What are the benefits to your students to study real company examples vs. fictional companies?
 
Every chapter in the new edition of Atkinson now includes an opening chapter vignette based on a real company which describes realistic business problems that can benefit from managerial accounting or analysis or approaches.
 
OTHER POINTS OF DIFFERENTIATION  
  • Improved organization and clarity based on feedback from adopters of 4/e.
  • New questions and problems that correspond to new material and additional new problems that correspond to revised material.
  • More detailed material on target costing and an extensive illustration on target costing for a coffee maker.
  • 12 Chapter Organization allows for efficient coverage regardless of course length.
