Target Costing and Value Engineering
Robin Cooper, Regine Slagmulder
Business
A management-accounting study of how manufacturers design products backward from a target sales price using target costing and value engineering. Beck said he learned a lot from it about designing hardware to a price point, noting that making the cost-versus-value tradeoff explicit is similar to challenges he draws analogies to in software design.
