ASSIGNMENT
PART – 1: MIS
Question 1. Define MIS, Explain the characteristics of M.I.S. and critically evaluate,
‘Information’ as a tool for competitive advantage with suitable examples.
Answer 1. MIS- Management Information System is the system, which makes available the right
information to the right person, at the right place, at the right time, in the right form and at the right
cost.
In short we can say that MIS is basically an integrated system which transforms the data (inputs)
into reports (outputs) for facilitating decision-making through processing and using various
components of the information system viz. Hardware, software, Database, Procedures and
Personnel.
Characteristics of MIS:
Business Driven/ Justified: MIS is driven by business and not the other way
around. The plans of MIS must be linked to overall business plans of the enterprise.
The strategies of the corporation must set the MIS priorities.
MIS \ MCS —Page 2
Set-up Costs
Work force
Overtime rates
Production Capacity
Inventory levels
Capital requirements
Customer Servi ces
We can classify the uses of information as a tool for competitive advantage as follows:
Functional uses:
Strategic uses:
In short companies that anticipate/understand the power of information will be in control of event.
Companies that do not respond will be forced to accept changes that others initiate and will find
themselves at a competitive disadvantage.
But it must be remembered that lasting competitive advantage would be derived only from using
information in conjunction with business operational change to add value to a company.
MIS \ MCS —Page 4
Question 4. Define ‘Network’, ‘Internet’, and ‘Extranet’. Illustrate the Internet capabilities
and discuss the benefits of and problems with the Internet.
Answer 4.
Networ k:
Computer Network, according to the INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY ACT, 2002,
means “interconnection of one or more computers through use of satellite, microwave, terrestrial
line or other communication media, and terminals or a complex consisting of two or more
interconnected computers, whether or not the inter-connection is continuously maintained.”
A network typically contains diverse hardware and software components that need to work together
to transmit/ receive information. Different components in a network can communicate by adhering
to a common set of rules that enable them to ‘talk’ to each other. This set of rules and procedures
governing transmission between two points in a network is called P ROTOCOL. Each device in a
network must be able to interpret the other device’s protocol.
I ntr anet:
Over the years, the Internet, which is basically networks, has also led to the development of
“Intranet”. The Intranet is not really the Internet, but the application of Internet technologies to the
internal corporate network. The TCP/IP Internet Protocols, as well as the standard systems of the
Internet such as FTP, e-mail, protocols and www systems are now increasingly being used with in
networks that are commonly referred to as
“I NTRANETS”
Thus, while the Internet is for public consumption, Intranets are for private use, mainly confined to
the users only, within a given/ specific organisation.
E xtr anet
While the Internet is public and intranet is private, an Extranet is essentially a hybrid of the two:
semi-private.
The contents of the extranet server are specially designed for a very selected group of
users/audience. The users/ audience could be a company’s suppliers, customers or other business
associates.
I nter net
Internet is the global connection between computers that allows individuals/users to send e-mail,
make travel bookings, order books etc. between people and companies all around the world.
Internet is the worldwide network of computers holding vast quantities of data that the user can
access directly from a personal computer. Internet has emerged as the single largest,
“I NFORMATION SUPERHIGHWAY” in the world.
MIS \ MCS —Page 5
Internet is commonly referred to as “The network of the networks”. The Internet (with capital “I”)
is a public resource. It means that any user or server on the Internet can connect to any other user or
server. No one “owns” the Internet, and this feature gives individual and corporate organizations
tremendous capabilities. Internet has proved to be powerful tool for corporate in particular as it
helps, inter alias, bring in customers, generate revenue and save money.
Internet Benefits:
Reducing communication costs
Enhancing
Accelerating
Improving
Facilitating
Internet Problems:
Security
Technology Problems
Lack of standards
Legal issues.
Internet Capabilities:
Following are the major Internet capabilities and functions, which they support.
In short, Internet is a rich source of tools and information and has enormous potential.

Answer 6. A) P ROTOTYPING:
A prototype is basically a scaled-down model or a working version of a product. It
could be the model of a house, one want to build or a Tata Indica or Fiet Sienna undergoing
tests of all aspects of the product’s functionality, before it is converted into the polished,
sleek product. Prototype is now also used in development of information systems to
facilitate rapid system development. The process of preparing prototype is referred to as
PROTOTYPING. It consists of building an experimental system rapidly and inexpensively
for the end-user to evaluate. Prototyping is also viewed as a “strategy of experimental
applications to be achieved by an evolutionary design method.”
Prototyping is fast emerging as the “preferred Approach” among the MIS and user
communities. Infact, prototyping is now becoming Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for
software development.

B) CASE TOOLS :
CASE is an acronym foe Computer Aided Software Engineering OR Computer Aided Systems
Engineering. Computer Aided Systems Engineering involves using software packages to
accomplish and automate many of the activities of the Information System Development including
software development or programming. Computer Aided Software Engineering is same as CASE
above, but the emphasis is more on software development.
CASE TOOLS are the software packages available in the area/activities of automating the Systems
Development Activities. Case Tools are also referred to as ‘TOOLSETS’ and as stated by JAMES
O’ BREIN, the toolsets could be: -
THE PLANNING TOOLSETS: which help begin the development process with
information strategy planning from high level, business vantage
point.
THE ANALYSIS TOOLSET: which focuses on correctly capturing detailed
business requirements early in the development process.
THE DESIGN TOOLSET: which provides detailed specifications of the system
function.
THE INFORMATION INTEGRATOR: which integrates system specifications,
checks them for consistency and correctness and records in local or
central repositories.
THE CODE GENERATION TOOLSET: which produces a higher language
programme code based on system specifications.
THE DATABASE GENERATION TOOLSET: that generates system control
information needed for data storage and access.
THE PUBLIC INTERFACE: which provides for fill transfers and query
reporting.

EIS/ESS encourages the development of a more open and active information recourses
that are at the disposal of the organization for working out both strategic and tactical
decisions.
MIS \ MCS —Page 11
Question 8. Discuss the external and Internal Threats in respect of Information Security and
the desired remedial measures.
Answer 8.
The External Security Threats:
The external threats would be those emanating from outside the organization.
REMEDIAL MEASURES:
1) Internet Connections:
2) Remote Dial-in-Capabilities:
While the Internet connections are few and easy to control, the threats from dial-in
are real. There might be hundreds of dial-in threats most of which might be unknown to
the security administrator. Any uses in the organization with a phone line and a modem
attached to his PC can be an exposure for external access.
While controlling remote dial-in-capabilities, the following aspects
need to be given due considerations:
a) Remote Access
b) Remote Access Servers (RAS)
c) Servers I.D
d) The weak points of the system environment.
The internal threats would be those emanating from inside the organization. It is,
therefore, imperative that formal security policies/ measures are carefully designed and
scrupulously followed to ensure best protection and prevent security breaches.
MIS \ MCS —Page 12
REMEDIAL MEASURES:
1. Passwords:
Passwords should be at least five characters in length. It should be neither the same
as the user’s i.d nor be a common word. It should expire/ change regularly and reuse of the
older password should not be permitted.
2. User Terminations:
Certain functionaries like network/ system managers are allotted special I.D’s and
passwords called root, supervisor or administrator i.d/ password providing ‘Carte Blanche’
access to the system. These passwords too should be changed regularly and changed
immediately when someone who knows them leaves the organization.
4. Access Review:
There are generally numbers of users and hundred of thousands, if not million, of
files on computer network. Some type of user administrator review must be undertaken
twice or thrice a year to ensure that unauthorized users is not given access.
5. Authorization Levels:
The requests for authorization permitting access to relative database files are
received and issued in writing, usually via e-mail. The user could be assigned several forms
of authorization for access to parts of database. The authorization could be:
Read Authorization
Index Authorization
Insert Authorization
Resource Authorization
Update Authorization
Activation Authorization
Delete Authorization
Drop Authorization
6) User Information:
7) Routine Maintenance:
a) I.D’s that have not been used in a predefined period of time should be
disabled.
MIS \ MCS —Page 13
8) Software Updates:
Security administrator should regularly check with the software vendors to obtain
and apply the latest software updates or patches that help close security gaps/ holes.
9) Virus Checking:
Viruses are any type of programming code that intentionally cause a system
disruption, shut down or loss of data. Some /major viruses are- “ Trojan Horses”, “
Worms”, “ Code Red”, “ Melisa”, “Chernobye”. For protection from virus, installation of
anti-virus software is must and pattern files must be updated regularly. Some of the anti-
virus software products are “Symantec’s Norton anti –virus”, “ Network Associates, “
Intel’s LANDesk”, etc.
The physical access to the I.T area needs to be controlled. Access to the computers
room or data center should be limited on Need Basis.
MIS \ MCS —Page 14
Question 1: Define ‘Management Control’ and ‘Management Control System’. Discuss the
nature and characteristics of Management Control System.
Ans
MANGEMENT CONTROL
Management control is a continuous process of verifying whether the actions lead to the
result/ performance, which is within allowable and pre-determined limits and ensuring that
the desired objectives are being achieved effectively and efficiently.
“ Management control implies the measurement of accomplishments against the standard and the
correlation of deviations to assure attainment of objectives according to the plans.”
Popularly it is known as M.C.S in short form. M.C.S integrates the managerial activities of
planning, organizing, directing, communicating, leading and controlling in a system where
the focus is on management, the criterion for judging management actions being
achievement of objectives effectively and efficiently.
NATURE OF M.C.S
THE TRADITIONAL VIEW of M.C.S was to compare targets with the actual
performance and to take corrective measures where deviations occur. This view is
essentially restricted to short range to enable the management to initiate course corrective
action if/when any deviations occur.
THE MODERN VIEW is more comprehensive and realistic. It is designed not only to tell
how near the organizations to its targets but to evaluate the targets themselves in relation to
both the targets themselves in relation to both the constraints in the external environment
and the available resources. It also stresses self-control, wherein at each level people
themselves ensure about their activities. According to this view, management control
system is best aimed at results, not at people as such.
MIS \ MCS —Page 15
CHARACTERISTICS OF M.C.S
1) ONGOING PROCESS
Management control is an ongoing/continuous process. It is constantly responding
to the ever-changing environment. M.C.S is a dynamic process consists of a set of actions
like programming, budgeting, analyzing, monitoring, evaluating, reporting, reviewing, etc.
2) GOAL CONGRUENCE:
Goal congruence implies integrating the personal goals with organizational goals or
at least minimizing the amount of conflict between varying goals. The M.C.S monitors goal
congruence to ensure that the decisions and actions taken by employees are not against the
interest of the organization
3) UNIVERSALITY
Control function is required at every level of management and is every part of the
organization
4) TOTAL SYSTEM
The M.C.S covers all aspects of the organizational operations. Hence, M.C.S has to
understand the inter-relationship and interdependencies of the sub-system elements.
5) COORDINATING AGENCY
M.C.S should be exercised by a control co-coordinating agency. While the line
managers are the focal points, the staff experts translate management judgments into the
format of control system
6) GOAL ORIENTATION
M.C.S is put in place to ensure that the organization accomplishes its
predetermined goals with minimum variance in the more effective and efficient manner.
7) FINANCIAL STRUCTURE
The organizational performance with few exceptions is judged by or expressed in
monetary impact/units. Hence, M.C.S is generally built around the financial structure
8) RYTHMIC
The M.C.S has a definite has a definite schedule and time span. There is a certain
sequence and chronological order. Hence M.C.S should be rhythmic.
9) RECIPROCITY
The reciprocal nature of exchange makes control effective. Hence, M.C.S must
have reciprocity
Question 3: Critically evaluates the roles of the accounting system and information system in
M.C.S
Ans:
The accounting system plays a very crucial role in the organization when proper financial
information is not available at time. The accounting system alone can provide necessary
inputs for management decision-making and control. The ata as regards cash flows, funds
flow, capital budget, working capital, bills payable, bills receivable, expenses, costs,
performance reports etc. could be available only from the accounting system.
So the accounting system has to be designed in such a manner that:
1. It maintains proper records of the resources mobilize, utilized, deployed and consumed.
2. It gives the details about cost/ expenses incurred.
3. It gives details regarding production, sales so that using these accounting inputs, the
management can measure and analyze the performance vis-à-vis the budgets and take stock
of the situation and ascertain/ ensure optimum utilization/ performance by initiating
appropriate course- corrective actions.
Example:
The bills receivable data giving party wise, bill wise, data wise/ age wise brake up would enable the
management to devise suitable credit policy and limits for each client.
1. To ensure that the data are collected from all the input centers in time.
2. To see that data are processed speedily/ expeditiously for compiling/ preparing
performance repots.
3. To review reports at successive levels to identify gray areas for initiating course corrective
follow up actions
4. To analyze the reports with a view to identifying trends and highlighting the areas requiring
follow up actions
5. To assist in formulating corrective actions
As stated by Kenneth And Jane Loudon, three powerful worldwide changes have altered
the business environment given as follows:
1) GLOBALISATION:
Flattering
Decentralization
Flexibility
Location Independence
Low Transaction and co-ordination costs
Empowerment
Collaboration work and time work
1. Operational level systems help operational managers keep track of the firm’s day- to –day
activities.
2. Knowledge level systems help knowledge and data workers design products, distributive
information and cope with paper work.
3. Management level systems help middle managers monitor and control.
4. Strategic level systems help senior mangers with long term strategic planning.
So, information technology and information systems are now indispensable for any
organization from the management control point of view. Information system using I.T, support
decision- making, co-ordination and control in addition to making available requisite information
given as follows:
MIS \ MCS —Page 18
Question 4 Explain the concept of responsibility centers and discuss in detail, the pros and
cons of ‘Profit Center’ with suitable examples.
Ans:
RESPONSIBILTY CENTRE:
A responsibility center uses inputs, which could be materials, man-hours and other
services to create an output. The centers require working capital to accomplish this task.
The output can be tangible/ physical, when it is a product, or its output could be services,
which is an intangible output.
1. Revenue center
2. Profit center
3. Expense center
4. Investment center
PROFIT CENTERS:
Profit centers are independent units within the organization whose performance is
measured in terms of profit targets and the actual profits that are earned by them. This
performance is measured in terms of profit. Profit is not just revenue minus expenses.
Many non-financial aspects also influence a unit’s ability t make profits. In this center,
the optimum relationship between inputs and outputs can be established. Pros and cons of
profit centers are as follows:
1. The speed of operating decisions can be increased, as many a decisions will now be
made at the level of responsibility centers without referring them to the corporate
office.
2. The quality of many decisions can be improved as the managers that are closest to the
point of decision make them. For example:- Public sectors in India. Board of these
PSU’s doesn’t have complete autonomy regarding decision-making and are dependent
on respective ministries to clear many of the financial outlay proposals.
3. Head quarter’s management may be relieved of day-to-day business decisions and can
therefore concentrate on broader issue. They have no time to control the profit center of
the organization.
MIS \ MCS —Page 19
4. The profit consciousness can be enhanced. As profits are the main criterion of
performance measurement. Mangers will constantly try to improve the profitability.
5. Profitability is a much broader measure of performance. It can measure actions on both
revenues and expenses.
6. This provides an excellent training ground for managers. The profit centers are like
independent companies, the managers get trained in all aspects of management. These
centers are always under pressure to improve their competitive performance.
7. It provides top management the information on the profitability of the components of
company.
8. This allows organization to appoint specialist and experts to manage different types of
businesses.
1. The top management has to rely more on reports received from these centers to
effectively control them.
2. At the beginning of decentralization, competent people with requisite experience may
not be available within the organization.
3. It is possible that organization units would start competing amongst themselves
disadvantageously.
4. There can be increased friction in business units especially on the issue of transfer
pricing mechanism.
5. The managers of the profit centers are likely to focus on short-term profitability at the
cost of long-term interest of the company.
6. There is no system that will guarantee that increase in profits of all profits centers will
automatically increase the profits of the organization as a whole.
7. If the profit centers manager for some reason does not have all relevant information, tat
may be available with headquarters, the quality of decision made ma y suffer.
8. Divisionalization leads to addition costs. This is because some work duplication is
inevitable.
9. For realizing the full potential of profit centers, it is imperative that the managers are as
autonomous as the CEO’s of the company. In practice, so much autonomy is not
possible. A company can never be completely divided in independent units and the
powers that a CEO has cannot be given to the business unit managers.
10. Another problem arises when business units have to deal with one another. When the
production, procurement and marketing decisions for a single product line are
distributed among two or more units, separating the contribution of each unit becomes
different.
11. There are also three constraints that are placed by corporate management. These
constraints result from strategic considerations, those resulting from the need for
uniformity and those resulting from the economies of centralization.

Question 7. Define ‘Cost Audit’ and discuss its characteristics, scope and objectives. Please
also give a comparative view of the various types of Audit, namely, Internal Audit, Financial
Audit, Cost Audit and Management Audit.
Answer:
The Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA), London, terminology defines
Cost Audit as “the verification of cost records and accounts and a check on adherence to
the prescribed cost accounting procedures & their continuing relevance.”
According to the Institute of Cost and Works Accountants of India (ICWAI) Cost Audit refers to “
an audit of efficiency of minutes details of expenditure, while the work is in progress and not an
post-mortem examination. Financial Audit is a fait accompli.” Cost Audit is mainly a preventive
measure, a guide for Management Policy and Decision, in addition to being a barometer of
performance.
OBJECTIVES
A) GENERAL OBJECTIVES
B) SOCIAL OBJECTIVES
SCOPE
1. The Cost Audit in India is conducted in accordance with Section 233-B read with sub-
section (1) (d) of Section 209 of Companies Act, 1956.Hence, although cost audit of
companies is not compulsory each year, Cost Accounts may be maintained by companies
falling under the purview of Cost Audit as per the legal provisions.
The Scope of Cost Audit may widen when/if the Central Government prescribes cost
accounting records rules to more industries and issues more number of cost audit orders.
3. Cost Audit has to take cognizance of the findings of Internal Audit as well as Financial
Audit
4. Cost Audit should cover Efficiency and Proprietary Audit as well
5. Cost Audit should also cover Systems Audit of all procedures/system in vogue
6. Apart from checking the arithmetical accuracy, Cost Audit must ensure that:
7. As Cost Audit is going to enable organization to gain competitive edge in terms of Cost, it is
considered most crucial in the complementary Business Environment.
CHARACTERSTICS
Question 6. Explain the Concept of Balance Score Card and its usefulness for M.C.S with
reference to the Organization you are working with OR familiar with.
Answer. The Balance Score Card offers to the companies a framework that can translate a
company's vision and strategy into a coherent set of performance measure. A Balance Score Card
attempts to translate mission and strategy into objectives and measures, organized into four
different perspectives. These perspectives are
INTERNAL BUSSINESS
CUSTOMER PRESPECTIVE PERSPECTIVE
Pricing Index Tier II Hours With Customers
Customers Tender Success Rate
Customer Ranking Survey Rework
Customer Satisfaction Safety Incidence Index
Index Project Performance Index
Market Share Project Close Out Cycle
FINANCIAL PERSPECTIVE
These measures indicate whether a company's strategy, implementation and execution are
contributing to the bottom line improvement. The financial objectives that are normally measured
can be growth in sales, increase in profit margins, Return on investments and Earning Per Share
(EPS). One more Important measure that is being used widely now, is Economic Value Addition.
CUSTOMER PERSPECTIVE
In this managers identify the Customer and market segments in which the business unit will
complete. They also have to identify the measures of the business unit's performance in these
targeted segments. The outcome measures include:
Customer Satisfaction
Customer Retention
Customer Profitability
In this perspective, the managers identify the critical internal processes in which the organization
must excel. This will enable the unit to achieve the following:
Deliver the value proposition that will attract and retain customers in targeted market segments
Safety shareholder expectations of excellent financial returns.
The BSC usually identifies entirely new processes at which the Organization must excel to meet
customer and financial objectives. It also incorporates innovation process, which is a departure
from the traditional approach. The innovation process is a powerful driver of future financial
performance. It also helps the organization to identify the infrastructure that they must build to
create long-term growth and improvement.
All Companies have to attempt to improve quality, reduce cycle times, increase yields, maximizes
throughput, and lower costs for their business process. Unless one can outperform competitors on
all the above it may not be possible to be distinctive, with competitive advantages
Information on market and customers provides the input for the actual product design and
development. The R&D can then concentrate on following activities:
Perform basic research to develop radically new products and services for delivering value
to customers.
Perform applied research to exploit existi ng technology for the next generation of products
Make focused developments efforts to bring new products to the market.
1. Employee Capabilities
The Core employee measurement group would typically have three features
1. Employee satisfaction
2. Employee Retention
3. Employee Productivity
Employee Satisfaction objective recognizes that employee morale and overall job satisfaction are
now considered highly important by most companies. Employee morale is especially important for
service industries as many a time, employee at the lowest end interact directly with the customers.
The Employee Retention captures an objective to retain those employees in whom the organization
has a long-term interest. Long term, loyal employees carry the values of the organization,
knowledge of organizational processes. Due to these factors company needs to retain such
employees.
The Scorecard describes the organization's vision for the future to the entire organization.
This helps create shared understanding.
This allows all employees how they contribute to the success of the entire organization.
This is important because otherwise employees and departments will try to optimize their
performance without contributing to the achievement of the strategic objectives
The Scorecard helps in changing the level of efforts in favor of the organizational goals.

MIS - TIPS
Some pages, which are a must from both, the exam and assignments' point of view is given down.
Read the chapters in the sequence that I tell u so that u can finish more chapters fast
They are 1] in the order of their imp and less importance in exam and
2] in the order of the length of the chapters
FIRST: 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12
SECOND: 3, 2, 11
Some chapters like 7& 8 are dependent on 4 & 5 so dont skip the sequence. Just concentrate on the imp
topics written in all the chapters (down), you have gone thro' the whole!
where ever I have written "read", just read them, where ever it is "nicely" do it thoroughly. Some places I
have written byheart, which means byheart though if u cannot.
