Taking a much more strategic approach, the focus, of this book, is on the full range of cost drivers within the value chain rather than on just the distinctions between product/non-product costs and unit-variable/fixed costs.Specially designed for managerial accountants, this updated edition thoroughly integrates issues that have emerged during the past ten years.
