P2 ADVANCED MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING 


Syllabus structure 

The syllabus comprises the following topics and weightings: 

A. Managing the costs of creating value: Cost management and transformation are priorities for organisations facing intense competition. This section examines how to use cost management, quality and process management, and value management to transform the cost structures and drivers to provide organisations with cost advantage.

B. Capital investment decision-making: Organisations have to allocate resources and key strategic initiatives to ensure that their strategies are properly implemented. Capital investment decision-making is the primary means by which such resources are allocated between competing needs. This section covers the criteria, process and techniques that are used to decide which projects to undertake. Of particular interest is the financial appraisal of digital transformation projects.

C. Managing and controlling the performance of organisational units: The structure and strategies of organisations should align with each other to ensure effective strategy implementation. Responsibility centres are the organisational units that are allocated resources and charged with implementing organisational strategy. This section shows how to manage the performance of these organisational units to ensure that they achieve the strategic and other organisational objectives. Key concepts, techniques and issues are explored and examined.

D. Risk and control : Risk is inherent in the operations of all organisations. This section analyses risks and uncertainties that organisations face in the medium term. The risks are mainly operational in nature.
