ASSIGNMENT
PART 1: MIS
Question 1. Define MIS, Explain the characteristics of M.I.S. and critically evaluate,
Information as a tool for competitive advantage with suitable examples.
Answer 1. MIS- Management Information System is the system, which makes available the right
information to the right person, at the right place, at the right time, in the right form and at the right
cost.
According to DAVIS and OLSON:
MIS is an integrated user-machine system for providing information to support operations,
management and decision-making functions in an organization. The system utilizes computer
hardware and software, manual procedures/ models for analysis, planning, control, decision-making
and database.
KROBER AND WATSON:
They have defined MIS as an organized set of processes that provide information to managers to
support the operations and decision-making within an organization.
In short we can say that MIS is basically an integrated system which transforms the data (inputs)
into reports (outputs) for facilitating decision-making through processing and using various
components of the information system viz. Hardware, software, Database, Procedures and
Personnel.
Characteristics of MIS:
Management oriented/ Directed: MIS starts from an appraisal of management
needs and overall business objectives. It is possible that middle management or
operating management is focus of the system, so that their needs are the corner
stone on which system is built.
Business Driven/ Justified: MIS is driven by business and not the other way
around. The plans of MIS must be linked to overall business plans of the enterprise.
The strategies of the corporation must set the MIS priorities.

MIS \ MCS Page 2

Integrated: Integration of information subsystems provide more meaningful


management information. For Ex: In order to develop an effective production
scheduling system, we must balance such factors as: Set-up Costs
Work force
Overtime rates
Production Capacity
Inventory levels
Capital requirements
Customer Servi ces
Common Data flows: Because of the integration concepts of MIS, there is an
opportunity to avoid duplication and redundancy in data gathering, storage and
dissemination.
Heavy planning Element: Complex, enterprise-wide information systems do not
occur overnight, they take from three to five years to get fully established firmly
with a company.
Multi- Disciplinary Activity/Subject: MIS draws heavily upon various disciplines
like Management Accounting, Management science /Theory, Organization.
Behavior /theory, operations research, computer Science etc. As MIS cant be
developed without making use of the various theories, principles, formulae, So
MIS is viewed as Multi-Disciplinary Subject.
Federation of Sub Systems: MIS is viewed as a federation of sub-system,
developed, implemented as needed but conforming to an overall plan For Ex. Each
organization will consist of sub-systems like production, inventory, finance,
marketing etc. There could be functional sub systems as well as activity subsystems.
As an evolving subject:

MIS come to play a much larger role in the

organizational life, as compared to the 1950s. It has moved into managerial control
and further into influencing the core institutional activities.

Information as a tool for competitive advantage:


We can classify the uses of information as a tool for competitive advantage as follows:
Functional uses:
Information helps lower cost in any / all parts of value chain
Information helps transform the physical processing component of activities into
information component leading to value addition.
Information bestows organizations with speed and ability to move quickly into the
market.
It helps organization:
Meet benchmarking standards.
Improve customer service.
Improve quality and precision of design and product.
Information can help to simplify:
Products
Product processes
Production cycle time
Information and information system help in:
Facilitating product delivery
Adding value to quality
Improving product quality
Information helps organizations to enhance:
Quality of their operations
Quality of their products
Quality of their services
Strategic uses:
Information gives organizations new ways to out perform their rivals.
The new intensity of information makes it possible for more precise development of
strategies, planning, forecasting and monitoring.
Information facilitates availability of extensive data.
Information enables organizations to think globally act locally.
It yields strategic opportunities and enables change the rules of the competition very
fast.
It helps organizations become more flexible and responsive.
A firm can use four basic competitive strategies to deal with competitive forces:
Product differentiation
Focused differentiation
Developing right linkages to customers and suppliers
Becoming a low cost product
In short companies that anticipate/understand the power of information will be in control of event.
Companies that do not respond will be forced to accept changes that others initiate and will find
themselves at a competitive disadvantage.
But it must be remembered that lasting competitive advantage would be derived only from using
information in conjunction with business operational change to add value to a company.

Question 4. Define Network, Internet, and Extranet. Illustrate the Internet capabilities
and discuss the benefits of and problems with the Internet.
Answer 4.
Networ k:
Computer Network, according to the INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY ACT, 2002,
means interconnection of one or more computers through use of satellite, microwave, terrestrial
line or other communication media, and terminals or a complex consisting of two or more
interconnected computers, whether or not the inter-connection is continuously maintained.
Computer networking is the process of providing connectivity between/among two or more
computers/ computer systems to enable users to communicate with each other, share hardware/
software resources and not get constricted by the stand-alone systems.
A network is made possible/functional due to the following constituents: Node: - It is an end point in a computer network.
Access Path: - It is a connection between the two-end users that allows them to
communicate.
Protocol: - The rules established to govern the way that data are transmitted in
a computer network.
A network typically contains diverse hardware and software components that need to work together
to transmit/ receive information. Different components in a network can communicate by adhering
to a common set of rules that enable them to talk to each other. This set of rules and procedures
governing transmission between two points in a network is called P ROTOCOL. Each device in a
network must be able to interpret the other devices protocol.
I ntr anet:
Over the years, the Internet, which is basically networks, has also led to the development of
Intranet. The Intranet is not really the Internet, but the application of Internet technologies to the
internal corporate network. The TCP/IP Internet Protocols, as well as the standard systems of the
Internet such as FTP, e-mail, protocols and www systems are now increasingly being used with in
networks that are commonly referred to as
I NTRANETS
Thus, while the Internet is for public consumption, Intranets are for private use, mainly confined to
the users only, within a given/ specific organisation.
E xtr anet
While the Internet is public and intranet is private, an Extranet is essentially a hybrid of the two:
semi-private.
The contents of the extranet server are specially designed for a very selected group of
users/audience. The users/ audience could be a companys suppliers, customers or other business
associates.

I nter net
Internet is the global connection between computers that allows individuals/users to send e-mail,
make travel bookings, order books etc. between people and companies all around the world.
Internet is the worldwide network of computers holding vast quantities of data that the user can
access directly from a personal computer. Internet has emerged as the single largest,
I NFORMATION SUPERHIGHWAY in the world.

MIS \ MCS Page 5


Internet is commonly referred to as The network of the networks. The Internet (with capital I)
is a public resource. It means that any user or server on the Internet can connect to any other user or
server. No one owns the Internet, and this feature gives individual and corporate organizations
tremendous capabilities. Internet has proved to be powerful tool for corporate in particular as it
helps, inter alias, bring in customers, generate revenue and save money.

Question 6. Discuss any two of the following:

Prototyping

Case Tools

Object Oriented Systems

Answer 6. A) P ROTOTYPING:
A prototype is basically a scaled-down model or a working version of a product. It
could be the model of a house, one want to build or a Tata Indica or Fiet Sienna undergoing
tests of all aspects of the products functionality, before it is converted into the polished,
sleek product. Prototype is now also used in development of information systems to
facilitate rapid system development. The process of preparing prototype is referred to as
PROTOTYPING. It consists of building an experimental system rapidly and inexpensively
for the end-user to evaluate. Prototyping is also viewed as a strategy of experimental
applications to be achieved by an evolutionary design method.
Prototyping is fast emerging as the preferred Approach among the MIS and user
communities. Infact, prototyping is now becoming Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for
software development.
STEPS IN PROTOTYPING PROCESS:

MIS \ MCS Page 7

APPROACHES TO DEVELOPING PROTOTYPE SYSTEMS :


Prototype Systems could be developed in one of the following ways:

Non-Functional Prototype Systems

Partially Functional Prototype Systems

Fully Functional Prototype Systems

B) CASE TOOLS :
CASE is an acronym foe Computer Aided Software Engineering OR Computer Aided Systems
Engineering. Computer Aided Systems Engineering involves using software packages to
accomplish and automate many of the activities of the Information System Development including
software development or programming. Computer Aided Software Engineering is same as CASE
above, but the emphasis is more on software development.
CASE TOOLS are the software packages available in the area/activities of automating the Systems
Development Activities. Case Tools are also referred to as TOOLSETS and as stated by JAMES
O BREIN, the toolsets could be: THE PLANNING TOOLSETS: which help begin the development process with
information strategy planning from high level, business vantage
point.
THE ANALYSIS TOOLSET: which focuses on correctly capturing detailed
business requirements early in the development process.
THE DESIGN TOOLSET: which provides detailed specifications of the system
function.
THE INFORMATION INTEGRATOR: which integrates system specifications,
checks them for consistency and correctness and records in local or
central repositories.
THE CODE GENERATION TOOLSET: which produces a higher language
programme code based on system specifications.
THE DATABASE GENERATION TOOLSET: that generates system control
information needed for data storage and access.
THE PUBLIC INTERFACE: which provides for fill transfers and query
reporting.

According to ROCKART AND T REACY: -

EIS/ESS also helps in providing answers to questions like: -

What business the organization should be in?


What are the competitors doing?
What new acquisitions/ activities would protect the organization
from business cycles/ business swings?
Which units should the organization divert/ spin-off to raise cash
for further expansion/ diversification/ acquisition?

EIS/ESS encourages the development of a more open and active information recourses

that are at the disposal of the organization for working out both strategic and tactical
decisions.

MIS \ MCS Page 11

Question 8. Discuss the external and Internal Threats in respect of Information Security and
the desired remedial measures.
Answer 8.
The External Security Threats:
The external threats would be those emanating from outside the organization.
REMEDIAL MEASURES:
1) Internet Connections:
Normally in every organization there are relatively few identifiable Internet
connections. It is relatively easy to focus upon them and exercise control. The Internet
connection should be protected by a Firewall. Firewalls are hardware and software
combinations that guard the board between the corporate inter/ intranet (Private Access).
Firewalls can control who, if anyone, can surf the web, download files, etc. firewalls can
also hide the organizational networks identity from the rest of the world on the Internet,
as the corporate internal I.P. address is never used.
2) Remote Dial-in-Capabilities:
While the Internet connections are few and easy to control, the threats from dial-in
are real. There might be hundreds of dial-in threats most of which might be unknown to
the security administrator. Any uses in the organization with a phone line and a modem
attached to his PC can be an exposure for external access.
While controlling remote dial-in-capabilities, the following aspects
need to be given due considerations:
a) Remote Access
b) Remote Access Servers (RAS)
c) Servers I.D
d) The weak points of the system environment.
INTERNET SECURITY THREATS:
The internal threats would be those emanating from inside the organization. It is,
therefore, imperative that formal security policies/ measures are carefully designed and
scrupulously followed to ensure best protection and prevent security breaches.

MIS \ MCS Page 12

REMEDIAL MEASURES:
1. Passwords:
Passwords should be at least five characters in length. It should be neither the same
as the users i.d nor be a common word. It should expire/ change regularly and reuse of the
older password should not be permitted.
2. User Terminations:
When the user ceases to be an employee, intern, temporary associate or consultant/
contactor, the user security administrator must be informed forthwith, so that the users i.d
could be terminated.
3. Special Privilege I.Ds:
Certain functionaries like network/ system managers are allotted special I.Ds and
passwords called root, supervisor or administrator i.d/ password providing Carte Blanche
access to the system. These passwords too should be changed regularly and changed
immediately when someone who knows them leaves the organization.
4. Access Review:
There are generally numbers of users and hundred of thousands, if not million, of
files on computer network. Some type of user administrator review must be undertaken
twice or thrice a year to ensure that unauthorized users is not given access.
5. Authorization Levels:
The requests for authorization permitting access to relative database files are
received and issued in writing, usually via e-mail. The user could be assigned several forms
of authorization for access to parts of database. The authorization could be:
Read Authorization
Index Authorization
Insert Authorization
Resource Authorization
Update Authorization
Activation Authorization
Delete Authorization
Drop Authorization
6)

User Information:
The users should be made aware of the security issues.

7)

Routine Maintenance:
It should cover activities like:
a) I.Ds that have not been used in a predefined period of time should be
disabled.

MIS \ MCS Page 13


b) Logs giving details about unsuccessful log-in-attempts should be
reviewed and investigated.
c) Files that have not been accessed for quite some time should be
purged, to free up space.
8)

Software Updates:
Security administrator should regularly check with the software vendors to obtain
and apply the latest software updates or patches that help close security gaps/ holes.

9)

Virus Checking:
Viruses are any type of programming code that intentionally cause a system
disruption, shut down or loss of data. Some /major viruses are- Trojan Horses,
Worms, Code Red, Melisa, Chernobye. For protection from virus, installation of
anti-virus software is must and pattern files must be updated regularly. Some of the antivirus software products are Symantecs Norton anti virus, Network Associates,
Intels LANDesk, etc.
10)

Physical Considerations:

The physical access to the I.T area needs to be controlled. Access to the computers
room or data center should be limited on Need Basis.

MIS \ MCS Page 14


PART II: MCS
Question 1: Define Management Control and Management Control System. Discuss the
nature and characteristics of Management Control System.
Ans
MANGEMENT CONTROL
Management control is a continuous process of verifying whether the actions lead to the
result/ performance, which is within allowable and pre-determined limits and ensuring that
the desired objectives are being achieved effectively and efficiently.
It involves following three aspects:
1) It is a process consisting of certain inter-related and sequential steps.
2) It aims at effectiveness and efficiency in the acquisition and utilization of
resources.
3) It is designed to achieve further the objectives of the organization
DEFINITON BY KOONTZ AND O DONNEL:
Management control implies the measurement of accomplishments against the standard and the
correlation of deviations to assure attainment of objectives according to the plans.
MANAGEMENT CONTROL SYSTEM
Popularly it is known as M.C.S in short form. M.C.S integrates the managerial activities of
planning, organizing, directing, communicating, leading and controlling in a system where
the focus is on management, the criterion for judging management actions being
achievement of objectives effectively and efficiently.
M.C.S is made effective through two components:
1) MANAGEMENT CONTROL STRUCTURE
2) MANAGEMENT CONTROL PROCESS
NATURE OF M.C.S
M.C.S is by nature restrictive as well as regulative.
THE TRADITIONAL VIEW of M.C.S was to compare targets with the actual
performance and to take corrective measures where deviations occur. This view is
essentially restricted to short range to enable the management to initiate course corrective
action if/when any deviations occur.
THE MODERN VIEW is more comprehensive and realistic. It is designed not only to tell
how near the organizations to its targets but to evaluate the targets themselves in relation to
both the targets themselves in relation to both the constraints in the external environment
and the available resources. It also stresses self-control, wherein at each level people
themselves ensure about their activities. According to this view, management control
system is best aimed at results, not at people as such.

MIS \ MCS Page 15


CHARACTERISTICS OF M.C.S
1) ONGOING PROCESS
Management control is an ongoing/continuous process. It is constantly responding
to the ever-changing environment. M.C.S is a dynamic process consists of a set of actions
like programming, budgeting, analyzing, monitoring, evaluating, reporting, reviewing, etc.
2) GOAL CONGRUENCE:
Goal congruence implies integrating the personal goals with organizational goals or
at least minimizing the amount of conflict between varying goals. The M.C.S monitors goal
congruence to ensure that the decisions and actions taken by employees are not against the
interest of the organization
3) UNIVERSALITY
Control function is required at every level of management and is every part of the
organization
4) TOTAL SYSTEM
The M.C.S covers all aspects of the organizational operations. Hence, M.C.S has to
understand the inter-relationship and interdependencies of the sub-system elements.
5) COORDINATING AGENCY
M.C.S should be exercised by a control co-coordinating agency. While the line
managers are the focal points, the staff experts translate management judgments into the
format of control system
6) GOAL ORIENTATION
M.C.S is put in place to ensure that the organization accomplishes its
predetermined goals with minimum variance in the more effective and efficient manner.

7) FINANCIAL STRUCTURE
The organizational performance with few exceptions is judged by or expressed in
monetary impact/units. Hence, M.C.S is generally built around the financial structure
8) RYTHMIC
The M.C.S has a definite has a definite schedule and time span. There is a certain
sequence and chronological order. Hence M.C.S should be rhythmic.
9) RECIPROCITY
The reciprocal nature of exchange makes control effective. Hence, M.C.S must
have reciprocity
10) EXPANSILITY (FLEXIBILITY)
M.C.S should be able to adapt to the changes as and when they occur.

MIS \ MCS Page 16


Question 3: Critically evaluates the roles of the accounting system and information system in
M.C.S
Ans:
ROLE OF ACCOUNNTING SYSTEM
The accounting system plays a very crucial role in the organization when proper financial
information is not available at time. The accounting system alone can provide necessary
inputs for management decision-making and control. The ata as regards cash flows, funds
flow, capital budget, working capital, bills payable, bills receivable, expenses, costs,
performance reports etc. could be available only from the accounting system.
So the accounting system has to be designed in such a manner that:
1. It maintains proper records of the resources mobilize, utilized, deployed and consumed.
2. It gives the details about cost/ expenses incurred.
3. It gives details regarding production, sales so that using these accounting inputs, the
management can measure and analyze the performance vis--vis the budgets and take stock
of the situation and ascertain/ ensure optimum utilization/ performance by initiating
appropriate course- corrective actions.
Example:
The bills receivable data giving party wise, bill wise, data wise/ age wise brake up would enable the
management to devise suitable credit policy and limits for each client.
ROLE OF ACCOUNTING SYSTEM IN M.C.S
1. To ensure that the data are collected from all the input centers in time.
2. To see that data are processed speedily/ expeditiously for compiling/ preparing
performance repots.
3. To review reports at successive levels to identify gray areas for initiating course corrective
follow up actions
4. To analyze the reports with a view to identifying trends and highlighting the areas requiring
follow up actions
5. To assist in formulating corrective actions

ROLE OF INFORMATION SYSTEM:


As stated by Kenneth And Jane Loudon, three powerful worldwide changes have altered
the business environment given as follows:
1) GLOBALISATION:

Global work groups


Global delivery systems
Competition in world markets
Management and control in a global market place

MIS \ MCS Page 17

2) TRANFORMATION OF INDUSTRIAL ECONOMIES:

Knowledge and information based economies


Productivity
New product and services
Leadership
Time based competition
Shorter product life cycle
Limited employee knowledge base

3) TRANSFORMATIOM OF THE ENTERPRISES:

Flattering
Decentralization
Flexibility
Location Independence
Low Transaction and co-ordination costs
Empowerment
Collaboration work and time work

These changes, indeed transformations, are being facilitated by


the information system and information technology. I.T bringing about such changes,
which make the organization more dependent on the knowledge, learning and decision
making of individual employee.

ROLE OF INFORMATION SYSTEM IN M.C.S:


1. Operational level systems help operational managers keep track of the firms day- to day
activities.
2. Knowledge level systems help knowledge and data workers design products, distributive
information and cope with paper work.
3. Management level systems help middle managers monitor and control.
4. Strategic level systems help senior mangers with long term strategic planning.
So, information technology and information systems are now indispensable for any
organization from the management control point of view. Information system using I.T, support
decision- making, co-ordination and control in addition to making available requisite information
given as follows:

MIS \ MCS Page 18


Question 4 Explain the concept of responsibility centers and discuss in detail, the pros and
cons of Profit Center with suitable examples.
Ans:
RESPONSIBILTY CENTRE:
A responsibility center is an organization unit that is headed by the manager who is
responsible for its activities. A decentralization company is a collection of responsibility
centers. The management defines the objective of each of these centers. The managers
leading these centers are expected to deliver the desired output, for which they are held
responsible. For the board of directors, the entire company is a responsibility center.
The objective of a responsibility center is to help in implement the strategies adopted by
organization. If the corporate strategies are sound and if each responsibility center can
meet its objectives, then the organization as a whole can achieve its goals. Thus it can be
seen that responsibility center are the vital units to make the strategy of an organization
successful.
A responsibility center uses inputs, which could be materials, man-hours and other
services to create an output. The centers require working capital to accomplish this task.
The output can be tangible/ physical, when it is a product, or its output could be services,
which is an intangible output.
TYPES OF RESPONSIBILITY CENTER :
1.
2.
3.
4.

Revenue center
Profit center
Expense center
Investment center

PROFIT CENTERS:
Profit centers are independent units within the organization whose performance is
measured in terms of profit targets and the actual profits that are earned by them. This
performance is measured in terms of profit. Profit is not just revenue minus expenses.
Many non-financial aspects also influence a units ability t make profits. In this center,
the optimum relationship between inputs and outputs can be established. Pros and cons of
profit centers are as follows:
ADVANTAGES OF PROFIT CENTERS:
1. The speed of operating decisions can be increased, as many a decisions will now be
made at the level of responsibility centers without referring them to the corporate
office.
2. The quality of many decisions can be improved as the managers that are closest to the
point of decision make them. For example:- Public sectors in India. Board of these
PSUs doesnt have complete autonomy regarding decision-making and are dependent
on respective ministries to clear many of the financial outlay proposals.
3. Head quarters management may be relieved of day-to-day business decisions and can
therefore concentrate on broader issue. They have no time to control the profit center of
the organization.

MIS \ MCS Page 19

4. The profit consciousness can be enhanced. As profits are the main criterion of
performance measurement. Mangers will constantly try to improve the profitability.
5. Profitability is a much broader measure of performance. It can measure actions on both
revenues and expenses.
6. This provides an excellent training ground for managers. The profit centers are like
independent companies, the managers get trained in all aspects of management. These
centers are always under pressure to improve their competitive performance.
7. It provides top management the information on the profitability of the components of
company.
8. This allows organization to appoint specialist and experts to manage different types of
businesses.
DIFFICULTIES OF PROFIT CENTERS:
1. The top management has to rely more on reports received from these centers to
effectively control them.
2. At the beginning of decentralization, competent people with requisite experience may
not be available within the organization.
3. It is possible that organization units would start competing amongst themselves
disadvantageously.
4. There can be increased friction in business units especially on the issue of transfer
pricing mechanism.
5. The managers of the profit centers are likely to focus on short-term profitability at the
cost of long-term interest of the company.
6. There is no system that will guarantee that increase in profits of all profits centers will
automatically increase the profits of the organization as a whole.
7. If the profit centers manager for some reason does not have all relevant information, tat
may be available with headquarters, the quality of decision made ma y suffer.
8. Divisionalization leads to addition costs. This is because some work duplication is
inevitable.
9. For realizing the full potential of profit centers, it is imperative that the managers are as
autonomous as the CEOs of the company. In practice, so much autonomy is not
possible. A company can never be completely divided in independent units and the
powers that a CEO has cannot be given to the business unit managers.
10. Another problem arises when business units have to deal with one another. When the
production, procurement and marketing decisions for a single product line are
distributed among two or more units, separating the contribution of each unit becomes
different.
11. There are also three constraints that are placed by corporate management. These
constraints result from strategic considerations, those resulting from the need for
uniformity and those resulting from the economies of centralization.

Question 7. Define Cost Audit and discuss its characteristics, scope and objectives. Please
also give a comparative view of the various types of Audit, namely, Internal Audit, Financial
Audit, Cost Audit and Management Audit.

Answer:
The Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA), London, terminology defines
Cost Audit as the verification of cost records and accounts and a check on adherence to
the prescribed cost accounting procedures & their continuing relevance.
According to the Institute of Cost and Works Accountants of India (ICWAI) Cost Audit refers to
an audit of efficiency of minutes details of expenditure, while the work is in progress and not an
post-mortem examination. Financial Audit is a fait accompli. Cost Audit is mainly a preventive
measure, a guide for Management Policy and Decision, in addition to being a barometer of
performance.

OBJECTIVES
The Objectives of Cost Audit can be mentioned as follows:
A) GENERAL OBJECTIVES
1. To examine whether proper cost accounting records, as stipulated, under the
Companies Act, 1956, are being maintained or not
2. To ascertain whether the companys cost accounting records give true and fair view
of cost covered.
3. To verify cost accounts & other relevant data
4. To determine the value of Work-in-progress, Finished Goods/Stocks, as accurately
as possible
5. To compare actual cost and find out reasons, if any, for variances.
6. To ascertain whether cost records have been periodically reconciled with the
financial books as to ensure accuracy.
7. To inculcate the habit of cost consciousness in the minds of those who are
responsible for incurring cost.
B) SOCIAL OBJECTIVES
1. To help improve productivity thereby help proper allocation and utilization of
resources, accelerate development in National Income, Gross Domestic Product
and Economic Development.
2. To help in price fixation and price control mechanism
3. To help improve cost-consciousness
4. To help identify uneconomic product-line and work out appropriate product-mix
for ensuring optimum utilization of resources
5. To help in correct valuation of Work-in-progress and closing stock,leading to
correct profit & loss account
6. To guard against tax evasion efforts through incorrect valuation
7. To benefit consumers by ensuring reliable/competitive pricing

MIS \ MCS Page 21

SCOPE
1. The Cost Audit in India is conducted in accordance with Section 233-B read with subsection (1) (d) of Section 209 of Companies Act, 1956.Hence, although cost audit of
companies is not compulsory each year, Cost Accounts may be maintained by companies
falling under the purview of Cost Audit as per the legal provisions.
The Scope of Cost Audit may widen when/if the Central Government prescribes cost
accounting records rules to more industries and issues more number of cost audit orders.
2. Cost Audit has to be conducted keeping in view

Provisions of Companies Act, 1956


Cost Accounting Records Rules
Cost Accounting (Reports) Rules
Cost and Works Accountants Act, 1959

3. Cost Audit has to take cognizance of the findings of Internal Audit as well as Financial
Audit
4. Cost Audit should cover Efficiency and Proprietary Audit as well
5. Cost Audit should also cover Systems Audit of all procedures/system in vogue
6. Apart from checking the arithmetical accuracy, Cost Audit must ensure that:
Cost Accounting Principles and Practices are meticulously followed;
The Irregularities & lapses are reported & constructive suggestions for improvement in the
system & method for cost reduction are made.
7. As Cost Audit is going to enable organization to gain competitive edge in terms of Cost, it is
considered most crucial in the complementary Business Environment.

CHARACTERSTICS
1. Cost Audit is Efficiency Audit

Question 6. Explain the Concept of Balance Score Card and its usefulness for M.C.S with
reference to the Organization you are working with OR familiar with.
Answer. The Balance Score Card offers to the companies a framework that can translate a
company's vision and strategy into a coherent set of performance measure. A Balance Score Card
attempts to translate mission and strategy into objectives and measures, organized into four
different perspectives. These perspectives are
1. Financial, 2. Customer, 3. Internal Business processes, 4. Learning and Growth

FINANCIAL PERSPECTIVE
These measures indicate whether a company's strategy, implementation and execution are
contributing to the bottom line improvement. The financial objectives that are normally measured
can be growth in sales, increase in profit margins, Return on investments and Earning Per Share
(EPS). One more Important measure that is being used widely now, is Economic Value Addition.
While measuring financial performance following things need to be considered

Sales growth rate by percentage


Percentage revenue form new products, services and customers
Share of targeted customer and accounts
Cross-Selling
Percentage of Unprofitable customers
Revenue/Employee Ratio
Cost Reduction Rates
R&D
Working Capital Ratio
Asset Utilization Ratio
Return on Capital Employed
Payback of Investments

CUSTOMER PERSPECTIVE
In this managers identify the Customer and market segments in which the business unit will
complete. They also have to identify the measures of the business unit's performance in these
targeted segments. The outcome measures include:
Customer Satisfaction
Customer Retention
New Customer acquisition
Customer Profitability
Market Share in targeted Segments.

MIS \ MCS Page 25


In this perspective, the managers identify the critical internal processes in which the organization
must excel. This will enable the unit to achieve the following:
Deliver the value proposition that will attract and retain customers in targeted market segments
Safety shareholder expectations of excellent financial returns.

The BSC usually identifies entirely new processes at which the Organization must excel to meet
customer and financial objectives. It also incorporates innovation process, which is a departure
from the traditional approach. The innovation process is a powerful driver of future financial
performance. It also helps the organization to identify the infrastructure that they must build to
create long-term growth and improvement.
INTERNAL BUSINESS PROCESS PERSPECTIVE
All Companies have to attempt to improve quality, reduce cycle times, increase yields, maximizes
throughput, and lower costs for their business process. Unless one can outperform competitors on
all the above it may not be possible to be distinctive, with competitive advantages
In the process following steps are crucial:

Identify the market


Create the product/service
Build the product/service
Deliver the product/service
Service the customer

This will include two Questions:

What range of benefits will customers value in tomorrow's products


How might we, through innovation, pre-empt competitors in delivering those benefits to the
market places?

Information on market and customers provides the input for the actual product design and
development. The R&D can then concentrate on following activities:

Perform basic research to develop radically new products and services for delivering value
to customers.

Perform applied research to exploit existi ng technology for the next generation of products

Make focused developments efforts to bring new products to the market.

In this perspective the companies have to use following measures:

MIS \ MCS Page 26

Percentage of Sales from new products


Percentage of Sales from Proprietary products
New Product introduction versus competitors
Time to develop next generation of products

LEARNING AND GROWTH PERSPECTIVE


This perspective concentrates on development of objectives and measures, to drive organizational
learning and growth. The Earlier three perspectives identify where the organization must excel to
achieve breakthrough performance. The objectives here are to provide the infrastructure for
achieving the objectives. The infrastructure includes people, systems and procedures. This
perspective requires three categories for learning and growth viz
1. Employee Capabilities
2. Information system capabilities
3. Motivation, empowerment, and alignment
The Core employee measurement group would typically have three features
1. Employee satisfaction
2. Employee Retention
3. Employee Productivity
Employee Satisfaction objective recognizes that employee morale and overall job satisfaction are
now considered highly important by most companies. Employee morale is especially important for
service industries as many a time, employee at the lowest end interact directly with the customers.
The major element in the employee satisfaction survey should include:

Involvement with decisions


Recognition for doing a good job
Access to sufficient information to do the job well
Active encouragement to be creative and use initiatives
Support level from staff function
Overall satisfaction with company

MIS \ MCS Page 27


The Employee Retention captures an objective to retain those employees in whom the organization
has a long-term interest. Long term, loyal employees carry the values of the organization,
knowledge of organizational processes. Due to these factors company needs to retain such
employees.
In Employee productivity, it can be measured by calculating revenue or profit per Employee.
However there are some problems in this. At times the productivity per employee may increase but
the profit per employee may fall as a result of non-recovery of the incremental costs incurred for
higher revenue generation. When output is increased without adding to the number of employees, it
will result in better productivity ratio.
The importance of communication of the strategy while building a BSC is:

The Scorecard describes the organization's vision for the future to the entire organization.
This helps create shared understanding.

This allows all employees how they contribute to the success of the entire organization.
This is important because otherwise employees and departments will try to optimize their
performance without contributing to the achievement of the strategic objectives

The Scorecard helps in changing the level of efforts in favor of the organizational goals.

Re: [Symbiosis_Mumbai_DLP_2004] I NEED HELP WITH PGDIT- MIS & BCC
Hi
BC &EE, I read all the assignments as well as the chapters as some of the sentences are asked in fill ups and
selecting from the blank as it is written in the book. There are many assignmts uploaded which u can read.
Well, MIS was my first paper and it was very good.
Some pages which are a must from both the exam and assignments' point of view is given down.
Read the chapters in the sequence that I tell u so that u can finish more chapters fast
They are 1] in the order of their imp and less importance in exam and
2] in the order of the length of the chapters
FIRST: 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12
SECOND: 3, 2, 11
Some chapters like 7& 8 are dependent on 4 & 5 so dont skip the sequence. Just concentrate on the imp topics
written in all the chapters (down), you have gone thro' the whole!
where ever I have written "read", just read them, where ever it is "nicely" do it thoroughly. Some places I have
written byheart, which means byheart though if u cannot.
Chpt 1 and Chpt 2:
1] def are imp who said what in MIS
2] Pg 5 - Functional and Activities subsystem (They are asked as what is included in what)
3] Pg 15 to 18, just read it thoroughly
4] Cpt 2 is important but not tough only lengthy
5] Pg 28 - Genertaion of computers is very imp (who did what and what all introduced in that era)
6] Pg 34 - 38 (till utility programmes)just read it once as they are at times asked in true or false. also read
Application Software on page 39
7] pg 39 Data communication imp byheart the sequence on page 40
rest in the chapter needs only reading it as they can be answered easily.
Chpt 3:
1] definitions read them, pg 92 decision making models iimp, read figure 3.9 nicely.
2] Types of information on pg 97 onwards, Newell-Simon Model on pg 100,
3] Pg 106 'Asking questions' table byheart it, 3.4.3.3,4,5 just read them
Chpt 4:
Very imp chapter,
1] Learn all the types of systems properly,
2] what is control, 4.1.5.1.2 (that had come for me in the exam, 'Action is the basis of control? T/F'),
Read the lesson dont miss anything.
Chpt 5:
This is the base of this book (I mean all the lessons, I mean if u understand this chapter thoroughly, you can do
the read very easily)Also most of the questions come from this cpt.
1] def of system analysis and system design
2] 5.3.3 System development process very imp (learn the fig 5.9 and 5.10) (I was asked Q from fig5.10),
SDLCycle read nicely till page 134
3] def of prototyping, steps involved (I was asked 'there are FOUR steps involved in prototyping // its a fill up'),
limitations,
4] CASE tools, 5.4.3 is imp, read the advantages & the oop concepts.
Chpt 6:
1

1] Again an imp chapter. 6.1.1 just read, 6.1.2 read the points nicely, be thorough with all the boxes on page 152
& 153, components of dss (fig 6.1 simple see that), GDSS - components, configuration, features, factors all are
imp.
2]EIS/ESS imp, read the whole
3]Expert system,& pg 166, 167, def are imp
4]pg 169 what all are low and high for what!
5]rest pages just read them.
chpt 7:
1] Imp chapter
2] Read the whole please, it wont take long time as its short.
3] 7.1.4 NOT IMPORTANT OK SO RELAX
4] dbms advantages imp
Chpt 8:
1] This is a very important chapter, there are n no of questions in exam as well as in assignments.
2] 8.2.4 onwards just read not so imp
3] 8.2 and 8.3 are imp, Q are asked eg: The Metadate contains the_____ Ans Central detail data (Muptiple
choice and single answer)

Chpt 9:
1] 9.1.1, 9.1.2 just read nicely
2] 9.1.2.2 just read them (virus checking, audit trails and routine maintenance is imp)
Chpt 10:
1] pg 208 and 209 imp
2] pg 211, discipline triangle imp
3] 10.1.6 byheart all ISO nos and with what it is acknowledged.
4] CQM on pg 213
5] 'tick it' is imp and 10.2.2,3
Chpt 11:
First of all I didnt do this chapter till the last day as I didnt want to waste any minute over a chapter that I just
cannot understand, but I did in in train for 45 min before the exam, but that doesnt mean that Q from this lesson
isn't asked. In fact many Questions are asked.
This is my advice: DONT TOUCH THIS CHAPTER TILL U FINISH THE REST. If u canunderstand then its
fine.
1] read the case
2] functions in the case
3] then go for the transactions
4] reports are imp, see what all are asked in all the repprts and who has to sign them.
5] case 11.2 is imp also 11.3, 11.5 (very imp read their cases as well as their diagrams and flowcharts)
Chpt 12:
just read it as a leisure time reading
1] pg 256
2] (service vs product)
3] mis: service industry pg 264 and 265

All the best. Do go thro' the assignments as most of them also come. Read all the abbreviations and full forms,
e.g DSS, EIS; also the order of the steps involved in the process, the ones given in chps like data mining, sdlc
cycles etc.
