Summary
Management accounting involves designing and using systems to help managers make decisions. It covers topics such as ethical pressures, performance measurement, budgeting and cost analysis.
Ethical pressures and goals
Ethical pressures on managers come from various sources. Managers must align their goals and employees' goals with organizational goals. This is known as goal congruence.
Performance measurement systems
Performance measurement systems help managers with resource allocation. They motivate employees to achieve strategic objectives. The Balanced Scorecard is a tool that measures different types of objectives.
Budgeting and cost analysis
Budgeting involves planning for future periods. This includes participative budgeting and continuous budgeting. Cost analysis involves looking at variances and making investment decisions.
