Celebrity Accounting

In a bid to rebalance the somewhat negative bias of the last few entires, I'm going to write a bit about the course content. This term, it's excellent. Most (not all) courses are really engaging and taught really pretty well.

Interestingly, the widely recognised star performer is the Managerial Accounting professor. He's got an uncanny ability of commanding attention through a combination of fast paced humour (he has one of these brains that ticks over 10,000 times a second) and fascinating content. The primary point of the course is that measuring cost in a business is actually quite a difficult thing, and that when it comes to figuring out how much a particular unit costs you to make you can get into all sorts of trouble.
