| Kursusindhold | |||||||||||||
| Microeconomic theory, management theory, accounting theory, organisation theory, systems theory, and information management serve as the main theoretical basis of the course. Aim is to derive analytical tools and structures as well as economic criteria for effective and efficient co-ordination of management functions and business processes. Furthermore the attempt is made to link contents of preceding courses in managerial economics to the development of solutions for practical problems in the business world and to evaluate prerequisites and limitations of their applicability. The course is also intended to provides a basis for further managerial and business economics subjects taught in higher semesters. The course addresses the following major subjects: - Financial Structure - Financial Performance - Valuation of Information - Cost Systems - Cost Allocation/Assignment - Competitive Strategies - Resource Based Strategic Analysis - Performance Measurement - Total Business Performance - Soft Systems Analysis - Principles of Controlling - Information and Management Systems - Incentive and Reward Systems On successful completion of the course students are able to understand functions and fundamental structures of controlling and its economic motivation as well as the importance of information and the economics of its use. They also learn to analyse (simplified) practical strategic and operative management tasks from a mmanagement accounting perspective and to apply the results to strategy processes, cost analysis, control activities, financial planning, evaluation of performance, and management structures. | |||||||||||||
