/>This program has been designed to provide the participants with a broad view and understanding of financial budgeting for enterprises. A discussion of financial statements is a must when considering the creation or analysis of financial budgets. Also, an understanding of how costs behave and how they can be derived and allocated to the various aspects of the business units is also an important part of preparing budgets.<br
/>We will be discussing various budgeting methods that have been used and are still in use today in various enterprises. We will also be discussing the methods we can use to assess whether a budget is appropriate and should be approved, and in some cases, whether a project should be undertaken at all.<br
/>And finally, no discussion about budgets can be complete without assessing how well a company or sub-unit has actually performed in relation to their budget, and understanding why there are any differences, which there will usually always be.<p>Cost: 5670 USD</p><p>Duration: 5 Days</p>					]]>				  </description>				  <pubDate>Thu, 27 Feb 2020 11:20:36 +04</pubDate>				</item> 								<item><title><![CDATA[Masterclas in Financial Control  - LEORON Professional Development Institute , Saudi Arabia, UAE, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Riyadh, Jeddah, Muscat,Dubai,Muscat,Azerbaijan,Georgia,Kazakhstan,Oman,United Arab Emirates ]]></title><link>https://courses.laimoon.com/course/certificate-in-accounting-and-financial-control-leoron-professional-development-institute/online</link>				  <description>				  <![CDATA[						The MFC program is the "controlling" module of the masters series in administering business organizations. It focuses on the tools to management in directing and controlling the activities of a business to determine whether targets are being met within acceptable risk parameters.<br>This is a "nuts and bolts" course which begins with an examination of (short-term) working capital management covering how to right size and monitor working capital and tackling credit controls. We review the process of "managing the numbers", that is, the more traditional approach using the analysis of financial results and the use of ratios as a control tool.<br>The program then pushes into more pro-active managerial tools reflecting cutting edge organizations that are results orientated: standard costing, relevant costing and cost behavior are examined with a view to achieving the most effective budgetary planning and variance analysis processes. Activity-based costing and Beyond Budgeting are compelling examples of the more pragmatic and practical approach to planning and controlling.<br>A key part of the course is the focus on how successful companies focus on EVA (economic value added) and how to use EVA to practically assess the value that a business is creating of their business and how they design and implement appropriate KPI (key performance indicators) and OKR systems (objectives and key results). The course incorporates how to consider and implement more recent trends in the applications of using blockchain as an effective control tool.<br>The program concludes with an interactive case study and discussion of sound internal controls and the COSO framework. All of the above are key areas that a controller must be familiar with in order to effectively perform the controlling function, thereby safeguarding company assets and the bottom line from uncontrolled risks.<br>Read more&nbsp;<p>Cost: 5670 USD</p><p>Duration: 5 Days</p>					]]>				  </description>				  <pubDate>Wed, 26 Feb 2020 18:09:11 +04</pubDate>				</item> 								<item><title><![CDATA[Cost Accounting and Management  - LEORON Professional Development Institute , Dubai ]]></title><link>https://courses.laimoon.com/course/cost-accounting-and-management-leoron-professional-development-institute/online</link>				  <description>				  <![CDATA[<p>Managing costs is an important aspect of managing a company's profitability and efficiency.&nbsp;</p><p>During this course, we will review the various methods available to assign costs to products and services, as well as the more qualitative aspects of costing, namely quality costs and environmental costing.&nbsp;</p><p>We will also review how the control of costs can help management to make more efficient short-term business decisions and how we can analyse the efficiency of costing methods.

Historical accounting records are essential but are not enough for managers to make informed strategic operational and financial decisions. Management&#39;s pre-defined goals should be filtered down into budgets, forecasts and plans of action. Most of the mid-sized companies and almost the entire large corporates engage in some forms of budgeting, planning and forecasting.<br
/>However, many are characterized by being not dynamic or interactive which may negatively impact the decisions<br
/>made by top management. Making the right decision in such an atmosphere is easier when there is a clear view on what the future will bring. The future, however, may be predicted only from the moment when a good understanding of the past has been achieved; fast-changing business conditions call for agile planning, budgeting and forecasting.<br
/>This 5-days intensive event is targeting those responsible for the preparation of budgets, plans and forecasts and those<br
/>who are using them as well. The course will start with some exceptionally important advanced Excel tips that will be utilized during the course. All of these tips coming together will orchestrate professional models that are dynamic and interactive.<br
/>Very advanced tools like Monte Carlo simulation using Crystal Ball in Excel and PowerPivot (that is introduced recently in Excel) will be an inherent part of the program. When it comes to planning for the future in any organization, the biggest problem is how to account for uncertainty. Strictly (in financial terms), uncertainty is where there is more than one possible outcome to a course of action; the form of each possible outcome is known, but the probability of getting any one outcome is not known. It is a challenge to quantify uncertainty because it is on not an observable variable rather one that is deduced from others. However given a complete range of possible outcomes, one can make decisions that reduce this uncertainty. Monte Carlo simulation gives the power to solve a problem by directly simulating the underlying process and then calculating the possible results of the process with varying degrees of probability.<br
/>You will learn how to develop Power Pivots that can handle data of up to 200 million rows of data on a standard desktop or laptop computers knowing that normal pivot tables in Excel usually choke after about 30,000 rows of data or so. In addition, there are numerous other features in PowerPivot that will enrich the analysis of your data. For example, a powerpivot can read data from different ranges which is something a normal pivot table cannot accomplish. A professional case study will examine the interactions within a powerpivot example that will be a guide of something that can be implemented upon the completion of the course.<br
