Seminar-No. 9.2
Here you can expand your detailed knowledge of controlling methods.

Holistic corporate management requires linking profitability and financial transparency. Finance, Accounting and Legal have a significant impact on the numbers and thus on the performance measurement. At the same time commercial law is changing significantly. In group controlling the IFRS Standards are the driving forces. Small and medium enterprises experience the same changes with a time delay with the HGB (= German commercial code). Here german federal laws like BilMoG and BilRUG have initiated the same process of change. The associated integration of accounting tools is accelerated by stronger capital market orientation – bank and stock exchange. That is why we begin with integrated profit and financial planning, i.e. the income statement, balance sheet, cash flow and financial ratios. Investments also have to be evaluated overall including their impact on enterprise value. Then we have comprehensive coverage of topics such as structure and fixed-cost controlling, pricing, customer value and sales controlling. Modern IT-instruments offer exciting new opportunities with all of these topics. We conclude with an understanding of the effect of internal charging and of (tax based) transfer pricing on key figures.
