Gain the information you need to ensure your company is compliant under CAS 406, 407, and 408.
The Cost Accounting Standards (CAS) are the foundation for government contracting accounting. Many contractors find out they have not been following the CAS requirements on at an audit or review. Failing to follow CAS requirements can result in the loss of contract awards, retroactive cost/price adjustments with or without interest, and potential criminal implications (in the case of fraud). The most important defense against any of those undesired outcomes is knowledge. This topic will give you the information you need to ensure your company is compliant under CAS 406, 407, and 408.

- You will be able to identify Cost Accounting Standard (CAS) overview.
- You will be able to recognize the purpose of each CAS.
- You will be able to identify the requirements of various Cost Accounting Standards.
