Title: Questions About Manufacturing and Standard Costing
Hello everyone,
I noticed that the discussions on manufacturing and standard costing in this subreddit are a bit outdated, so I thought I’d start a new thread.
Is anyone here currently working with standard costing in a manufacturing environment?
Also, could anyone recommend websites that offer in-depth training on standard costing? I previously checked out Coursera, but I found their material to be quite brief. Thank you!
