Description: Target Costing: The Next Frontier in Strategic Cost Management is the one-and-only reference of its kind, providing practical insights on using target costing to build a culture of excellence in your organization. Shahid Ansari, Jan Bell and the CAM-I Target Cost Core Group focus on the details and show how this strategic management process can provide your customers with the products they want, when they want them, at a price they can afford - and still earn your firm reasonable financial returns.

The CAM-I group realized target costing was critical for success in our global economy and collaborated on this landmark work. Relying on state-of-the-art practices drawn from over 80 Japanese works, global best practices and personal experience, Target Costing describes the scope, framework, process and tools for implementing a robust and integrated target costing system.
