Quotes from this course:
“It was a good consolidation of the many aspects of production accounting. It both reinforced knowledge I already had while also opening up areas of production accounting I hadn't previously been exposed to. Susanna was invaluable for pulling together all the strands and constantly reminding us to think about budget implications.
