Strategic Supply Chain Finance, Cost Analytics, and Value Creation (OPMT 4240)
In this course students will be introduced to the multiple financial concepts which are critical to supply chain management. Firstly, students will learn about different cost accounting items such as labour, material, and overhead costs. Students will then examine job cost and service statements, as well as cost accounting systems.
Through case analyses, applied problem-solving, and systems-based projects, students will develop integrated approaches to labour costing, overhead allocation, and job and service cost analysis. Students will critically assess alternative costing methodologies and accounting system structures, examining their implications for pricing, profitability, working capital management, and strategic decision-making. Emphasis is placed on aligning cost information with enterprise systems, financial performance, and supply chain strategy to support evidence-based managerial leadership
