Strategic Performance Management

.........................................................................................................................
Description
The book is specially conceived for Cost and Management Accountancy – Final Course for preparing to the paper ‘Strategic Performance Management’ Group-IV, Paper 17.
The subject coverage of the book is divided into three parts. The first part of the book covers chapters relating to ‘Strategic Performance Management’ and the second part of the book consists of chapters relating to ‘ MIS and Risk Management’.
The Theoretical aspects of the course syllabus are presented in a comprehensive manner covering the depth of the subject. Theoretical examination questions of CMA Final for past twenty years are given at the end of respective chapters.
Past fifteen years fully solved practical examination problems of CMA Final course are given at the end of respective chapters, with full working notes, easily understandable to the students.
Case Studies with Analysis are also given for understanding the conceptual importance of the subject.
Keeping in view the factors like size of the book, coverage of questions at the CMA Final examinations, some of the topics are incorporated in another book ‘Business Strategy and Strategic Cost management’ written by me for CMA Final course. Students are advised to study those aspects also for achieving the desired goal.
