Special requirements
No special requirements
This subject introduces the rationale and basic approaches behind costing and feasibility analysis. Effective business managers determine whether changes or initiatives in business operations are financially feasible and justify their rationale. You will explore small scale changes involving existing operations, to larger scale investments involving capital expenditure. Case studies are used to illustrate the importance of being able to calculate costs and returns and make judgements about financial feasibility. You will undertake a process of appreciative inquiry using an industry scenario to analyse its costing and feasibility.
