CPE: 2 Field of Study: Finance Discussion Leader: Brian Maturi, MBA, FCA Date: Friday, November 7, 11:00 am Description: Customers demand quality. We expect quality in what we do and in what we consume. In 1985, Philip Crosby told us that quality is free. We will examine Crosby's statement and look at the four aspects of the cost of quality - prevention, appraisal, internal failure, and external failure. What are the true costs associated with each of these elements? How can we determine how each aspect can be measured? We will test the adage that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure to see if this 16:1 relationship holds true. Quality matters, and we need to know how to evaluate the true cost of quality and what the value is. Week 2: CFO Series: Recognizing Lies: How to Detect and Prevent?
