Traditional managerial accounting has often been criticized as ineffective, and in some cases even misleading, leaving many line managers skeptical of the information it provides. Modern management accounting addresses these shortcomings by developing precise cost-per-unit metrics that support budgeting, cost analysis, and performance control. Activity-Based Costing (ABC) enhances accuracy by tracing costs through cause-and-effect relationships rather than relying on broad overhead allocations. This fact-based approach delivers clear visibility into true profit margins across products, service lines, sales channels, and customers. In addition, ABC empowers organizations to reduce costs and improve productivity by reporting unit costs that track trends and benchmark performance against competitors. By moving beyond outdated accounting methods, organizations can unlock significant strategic and financial advantages.

Should CPAs in public practice use Agentic AI? How? What should I not do? Join us to review how to use AI to assist in Assurance engagements, including testing internal controls. Agentic AI (‘Artificial Intelligence’) is rapidly being deployed by leading audit, compliance, and finance teams. While AI agents are not yet replacing all of today’s knowledge workers like auditors, accountants, and IT security professionals, the knowledge workers that effectively use Agentic AI may soon be replacing those knowledge workers who do not use these tools to drive high quality business growth and scale. AI is moving beyond automation to become a true teammate, especially in the governance, risk, and compliance processes. This session will show how supervised AI agents can work alongside accountants, auditors and IT security professionals to enhance efficiency, consistency, and assurance quality. Of critical importance is training and supervision so that the AI agents accomplish their testing to the intended quality standards. Attendees will leave with a practical view of how AI-powered testing can be applied to both internal and external assurance.

Properly identifying performance obligations is a critical step in the five-step revenue recognition model. It is a step that must be completed at the inception of the contract and prior to moving on to step three of the model. As discussed in segment one on performance obligations, there are many types and variations of obligations and as such, management will be required to utilize significant judgment when applying this step. However, it is important that the judgment be supported by considerations of the proper factors. The course further evaluates areas that impact performance obligations. We utilize multiple examples from various industries to illustrate the considerations that must be evaluated in line with both identifying performance obligations and allocating the transaction price appropriately.
