What a company does not generate in terms of earnings through pricing for a given sales volume can hardly be achieved through cost reductions. As controllers, we are not primarily responsible for pricing. We support the calculation, determine target contribution margins, and calculate the necessary target or minimum sales prices to cover costs and achieve a set profit target” – starts Klaus Eiselmayer his article on pricing. | | | | | | | | | | | Highlights of the WHU Controller Panel | | | | | In 2007, the WHU Controller Panel was formed through a collaboration between Prof. Dr. Utz Schäffer and Prof. Dr. Dr h. c. Jürgen Weber in cooperation with the ICV. Since then, it has offered well-founded scientific analyzes and practice-relevant benchmarks on various aspects of controlling. Under the direction of Prof. Dr. Marko Reimer and Prof. Dr. Utz Schäffer it regularly surveys around 1,000 CFOs and controllers to examine current developments and relevant long-term issues in the field of controlling. The highlights of the studies can also be found on the ICV website.
