Seems well-designed to test competency. However, didn't seem appropriate for those with absolutely no basic knowledge of accounting terms (e.g. what is "Gross Margin"?).

Great Course that gives you the basics of Costing and it's relevant in regular Business decisions. Well articulated to ensure that people new to the concepts also understand it clearly!
