Blocher/Stout/Juras/Cokins: Bringing a Strategic Focus for Your Students

Cost Management: A Strategic Emphasis by Blocher, Stout, Juras, and Cokins uses strategic focus to help students understand the role of cost management in helping an organization succeed. Unlike many books that aim to teach students about accounting, this text aims to show students how an important area of accounting, cost management, is used by managers to help organizations achieve their goals.  For every major topic covered in this text there is a larger issue, which is: "How does this organization compete? What type of cost-management information does it need?" The 6^th edition will help students see the relevance of cost management concepts and procedures, and demonstrate how they will use this information in the future.
