3.0 out of 5 stars Decent, but very good, May 7, 2011
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Cases In Cost Management: A Strategic Emphasis (Paperback)
It gives you many thought-provoking hindsight, but it didn't provide any recommended solution. Not proper for self-study, you got to have someone help you out.
