What’s on the midterm

The midterm usually covers the first block — cost concepts and behaviour, CVP, and job-order costing (roughly the first several chapters). As with most managerial courses, CVP is where the marks concentrate and where worded questions catch students who only practised plug-and-chug.

How to pass ADM 2341

  1. Work full problems on Connect — don’t just skim.
  2. Identify the method before computing.
  3. Prioritize CVP & relevant-cost decisions.
