BiB - Core Courses - (Anglophone) S2 - Cost management


Module Director: ALIA Hayyan

Pre-requisites: Accounting

Description: Key words: cost volume profit analysis; breakeven point and business decisions; cost allocation. Presentation of the costs accounting and oppose it to the financial accounting. The cost terms and purposes The cost objects and the relevant costs for making decision The Cost volume profit analysis The Break-even point The different purposes for allocating costs to costs objects The difference between direct allocations, step-down and reciprocal method The limits of the traditional costing systems and how can they provide misleading information for decision making

The purpose of this course is to provide a comprehensive survey of cost accounting and related techniques employed by manufacturing and non-manufacturing companies. Indeed, this course emphasizes the use of accounting information for internal planning and control purposes, and as a whole for decision making. Note that this focus contrasts with financial accounting where the orientation is on accounting disclosures and financial statements for parties external to the firm. This course is intended as an introduction for individuals willing to make business decisions. It will cover the vocabulary and mechanics of cost accounting, basic issues involved in the design of a managerial accounting system, and more particularly its role and how useful it is for resource allocation. We focus here on different issues: What are the traditional managerial accounting systems; its various unintended dysfunctional consequences and the other alternatives to resolve these problems?

BiB - Core Courses - (Anglophone) S2 - Geopolitics for Business


Module Director: DITTER Jean Guillaume

Pre-requisites: None

Description: Once upon a time businesses could pretend that 'the business of business is business' and that global problems were best left to politicians. Purely market-based parameters were held to be sufficient for corporate decision-making, and management education was monopolised by the notion of operational effectiveness, taught through the disciplines of finance, marketing and management. Today, such a 'hands off' approach is a liability. The past decade has profiled global threats in ever sharper relief: international terrorism, nuclear proliferation, environmental degradation, climate change, natural disasters, poverty and hunger, unmanaged migration, corruption, resource depletion, financial and economic crisis. Navigating this complex environment requires a sound understanding of the linkages between international politics and economics, and how they intersect with corporate business interests. Political entrepreneurship is therefore a 'must' in every manager's toolbox; it calls for a discipline that accommodates all aspects of the new global matrix of business: geopolitics. Traditionally, 'geopolitics' was used to describe how international relations and the foreign affairs and security of states are influenced by geography, politics, and economics. This definition is state-centred, with an emphasis on conflicts over territory and borders. In the business school context, the practice of 'geopolitics' refers to international risks and their impact on investment or distribution decisions, international marketing, reputation management, and ethical decision-making. A geopolitical mind-set encourages systemic thinking and reinforces decision-making capacity. It shows managers the way to grasp the 'bigger picture' and become good global citizens. Finally, the discipline's traditional focus on the nature, exercise, and sources of power in the international arena is an asset in determining corporate strategies. At the end of this module students should be capable of formulating coherent comprehensive and informed opinions with regard to the stakes of international politics. In addition, they should be able to apply this skill to the challenges faced by companies operating in an international environment, replete with risks and opportunities. Particular attention will be paid to power relationships and the relations between governments and states. New geopolitical phenomena linked to the rise to prominence of NGOs, media and international companies will be integrated.

Learning objectives: To be acquainted with the economic, legal and political environment of international business. To know how to communicate effectively, both orally and in writing. To be acquainted with the specific issues involved in conducting business operations on an international scale

Assessments:

Continuous individual assessment 50%

BiB – Core Courses - (Anglophone) S2 - Statistics & Data Processing


Module Director: SUTAN Angela

Pre-requisites: Basics in mathematics

Description: This course is relevant for managers because in their everyday work they are expected to properly and logically collect, present and describe information, to form conclusions about large populations based only on information acquired on limited samples, to obtain good forecasts and to know how to improve managerial processes. Therefore, the structure and the content of this course will be built in order to give them these tools. The learning methods will be based on understanding and interpreting concepts and tools, so the use of mathematics and calculations will be kept to a minimum by using the Microsoft Excel package. In addition, students will be familiarized with experimental techniques for data collection. The following issues will be covered in the course: Introduction to statistics for managers and to data collection: what is statistics, the Importance of properly collecting data, identifying sources of data, types of survey, the experimental method, evaluating survey worthiness. Presenting and organising data in tables and charts. Numerical descriptive measures, descriptive summaries, simple overall tools, tendencies and integrity in presenting data. Basic probability concepts. Some laws of distribution with a focus on normal distribution and approximations. All techniques and cases for confidence interval estimation. Fundamentals of hypothesis testing (the most important parametric, non-parametric, one sample and two sample tests) and relations with ethical issues, the power of a test, real and statistical differences. Simple linear regression, types, correlations, estimation, multiple regression, significance of the variables, simple model building. Decision Making, uncertainty, criteria, utility.

Case studies, teamwork projects.

Learning objectives: The course allows students to actively and passively make use of statistics and other quantitative methods in managerial decision making. Learning objectives: At the end of the course students should be able to: • Understand the main issues involved in conducting quantitative or technical research in management. • Collect clear data and avoid biased survey techniques and design a simple unbiased experiment in decision making. • Analyse and interpret data by using key quantitative tools. • Understand group differences and their implications for managerial decisions. • Use their complete academic skills (research, analysis, synthesis) when conducting a project in order to facilitate decision making or the management of uncertainty and always take into account the technical and quantitative part of a decision problem. • Critically analyse concepts, reports, and arguments. • Easily use simple technical and quantitative software. • Take a technical decision independently or cooperatively. • Communicate their results effectively by using reasoned arguments and facts in a logical way. • Let the data ethically and with integrity present the facts. • Formulate and conduct a complete management research project

GK45: To master the operational tools and methods to design, implement and evaluate a strategy. GK 51: To understand the importance of decision-making tools in management and to know how to use them when managing a project. GS 5: To be adaptable and capable of learning

Methodology: Teaching methods: The teaching hours will consist in a mixture of technical lectures, case study discussions, project work and field statistical work. The technical lectures will give students the opportunity to learn about statistical tools and to understand how and when they should be used by a manager. They will familiarize students with the technical thinking in order to make them able to select the appropriate technical tool when dealing with a decisional problem or to construct it. The case study discussions will help students to deeply understand the use of statistical tools and will form they critical eye in commenting results or managerial reports. The project work will give students the opportunity to put into practice all terms and tools they are learning in a decision problem and will give them the opportunity to exchange within a group and to peer evaluate their knowledge and skills. The field statistical work is closely related to the project work and will familiarize students with collecting data without biases, choosing the right method, interpreting data and formulate recommendations.
