Another Thursday is done....and still more assignments and what-nots to be completed.
However, Thursdays are a real climax for me.
Mondays start with two 3-hour lectures.
Tuesdays and Thursdays are really exhausting with 3 lectures from 1:30 pm to 8:50 pm.
Wednesday is a meek one...with just one course in the evening.
So, alike regular Thursday, this one had more advanced concepts in all the three courses.... more feeling of things piling up and more stress.
One good part was that the Prof for Strategic Cost Analysis helped me out with the Pass Fail form. I ran upstairs to get a copy from outside my advisor's office...but that lobby was locked and I could not get in. However, Prof helped me since she had keys.
Well, she reminds me of someone due to certain aspects.
-She had done her undergrad in Biology
-Later, into Accouting about 12 years ago along with MBA and CPA.
-Then, she was in project management for CEOs and CFOs (in form of consulting).
-Right now, wants to move near her sister's place since the drive would be tremendously shorter.
btw, Strategic Cost analysis class covered :
-Costing for Products and Services
-Short-term decision making
Explained...
-how sunk costs should not be considered while making decisions(bazaar equivalent of stop-loss and move on or "never marry a stock" decision making),
-how unitized fixed costs should not be used for decision making purposes,
-whether new offers from customers be accepted or not,
-whether capacity expansions be done or not, etc .
