The course aims at giving the students an understanding about businesses, their role in society and how economic information can be developed and used in firms and organization. Furthermore, the course aims at integrating previous knowledge about food with economic aspects. The quantitative aspects of business economics are especially highlighted, i.e. managerial economics.
After successful completion of the course, students will be able to:
describe central concepts in business economics,
apply basic methods in financial control and follow-up,
critically review economic data for decision-making,
integrate business economics into previous knowledge about food, by describing managerial aspects of an aspect within the food supply chain.
Content
The course is conducted with lectures, manadatory seminars and mandatory project work.
The course starts with a review of basic concepts and methods for financial control and follow-up. Especially product and investment calculation, economic information in income statements and balance sheets and the benefits and limitations associated with economic information are highlighted. At the end of the course, the students work independently in small groups with a project work where business economic knowledge is integrated with students knowledge in food.
