You are required to complete a course project that reveals mastery in application of the management accounting concepts and finance emphasised in the course. This involves reporting on a specific organisation within an industry and the management accounting and finance practices that affect the value of the chosen firm. This project should be a formal business report that provides both specific processes and strategies involving:-
1-budgeting
,2- costing,
3-capital decision making,
4-capital acquisition,
5-and cost of capital structure of the chosen firm (International Business Machine Corp (IBM)
. These processes and strategies are to be supported with management accounting concepts..
This week you will continue to work on your Final Project for this module. Prepare an annotated outline of your Final Project, briefly indicating the content you plan to include in each section of the report and the concepts and techniques you plan to apply for analysing any data and developing your argument. This is due to be handed in next week. The outline should not include detailed sections of the Final Project. Instead, it should be a specific and crisp overview of the contents that will comprise the final report, which will provide a detailed account of the five tasks listed below.
Remember that the tasks required for the Final Project are to:
- Assess the budgeting process and procedures for the organisation with regards to preparation techniques, uses for evaluation, differences between business units/divisions, etc.
- Analyse how the organisation collects, stores, and prepares management accounting information, particularly the use of a management accounting system (MAS) and how information is disseminated throughout the organisation.
- Evaluate the costing process and procedures of the organisation with respect to method or approach utilised.
- Assess the capital decision making process within the organisation with regards to what methods are utilised, how such methods are chosen, how projects are selected and managed, and what measures are employed to evaluate performance.
- Evaluate the criteria or mechanisms used by the organisation for deciding how best to acquire capital and analyse the capital structure of the company.
The annotated outline should address each of the tasks listed above. You need to briefly describe what information you will include in each section of the report that will satisfy these requirements. The work that will be carried out in the outline should represent a higher-level view than the contents of the Final Project. As such, you must remain at this level to avoid reusing the same wording in the final document.
here is feedback from my Professor about my proposal final project last week
Thank you for the proposal.
A few thoughts:
1. Where is the actual outline?
2. Where are the capital structure, capital acquisition, and capital budgeting?
3. Academic research needs to be strengthened.”
