Download or read book Accounting Innovation and Inter Organisational Relationships written by Martin Carlsson-Wall and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-11 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Successful innovation is a true challenge and especially when today’s companies are intertwined in close inter-organisational relationships and networks with e.g. customers and suppliers. Research has indicated that accounting can play important roles in such innovation processes, but there is little in-depth systematic knowledge about this issue. Accounting, Innovation and Inter-Organisational Relationships gathers leading researchers from all around the world to argue for the importance of more systematic knowledge about accounting, innovation and inter-organisational relationships. Accounting, Innovation and Inter-Organisational Relationships thus becomes an important source for researchers and practitioners interested in accounting and inter-organisational relationships as well as the related disciplines of management, marketing, innovation and strategy.

This book was released on 2022-10-31 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world's economy has suffered like never before first by COVID-19 and then by the Russia-Ukraine war. In such a difficult time, the role of Management Accounting and Performance Measurement Systems increases because the organizations have to quest for alternative cost management practices in order to reduce and control costs and improve profitability. Organizations in the 21st century have been witnessing rapid changes in expanded regulatory requirements and technological advances. These changes also impact accounting, it is essential to understand how Management Accounting and Performance Evaluation Systems are transforming locally and globally in order to reap proper opportunities. Environmental factors and organizational factors are believed to be an underpinning theory for challenges faced by management accountants in the 21st century. Needless to state that the role of Management Accounting and Performance Measurement Systems has been transforming the structure and processes of organizations and its acceptability has increased among internal stakeholders in improving the organizations’ decision-making processes and performance. This important subject has been embracing new avenues taking place both in theory and practice in view of emerging technologies. The usage of data analytics by accountants to support value creation is increasing. As a part of ethical practices and corporate social responsibility (CSR), organizations are obliged to report on incurring their environmental costs for mitigating the effects of pollution, climatic change, waste disposal, energy, and fuel consumption. Transformation in management accounting and control practices, adoption of innovative techniques such as activity-based costing and management, target costing, performance measurement systems, etc. particularly in the context of developing countries need to be researched in the twenty-first century in order to enhance our knowledge base in the context of competitive advantages of Management Accounting. Value-based management (VBM) helps in making decisions that are helpful for the long-term financial performance. Target Costing (TC) enforces the management to transform their ways of thinking regarding the relation between product cost, selling price, and profitability in the organizations. Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) is to prepare a firm-wide strategy to identify and manage overall risks in all operational areas. Justifying investments with the capital budgeting process is of high importance for future growth and profitability for any organization. In this context, the cognitive heuristics and attendant biases that are likely to colour judgments pertaining to the selection and post-audit stages of investment decisions need to be considered.
Download or read book Adoption of Management Accounting Innovations written by Christian Ax and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the introduction of a number of successful management accounting innovations over the past few decades has generated a vast amount of research, we have limited knowledge about how the diffusion of innovations is affected by the interplay between characteristics of adopters and characteristics of innovations. The study presented in this paper contributes to the literature that examines the adoption of innovations at the firm level of analysis. We develop and test an adoption model which draws on two recently introduced ideas about innovation adoption - the notion of compatibility between organisational culture and the values and beliefs embedded in innovations, and the perspective that early and late adopters might both be motivated to adopt based on expected economic and social gains and losses. In synthesising these models, we assume that a diffusing innovation that is compatible with a firm's values and beliefs is adopted early if it is perceived as delivering adequate gains while the innovation is rejected if it is not perceived as doing so, and that a diffusing innovation that is incompatible with a firm's values and beliefs is adopted late if it is perceived as reducing the likelihood of incurring losses while the innovation is rejected if it is perceived as not doing so. Hypotheses are generated and tested using data provided by a web-based survey of Swedish manufacturing firms on the diffusion of the balanced scorecard across those firms. In most respects, the pattern of results this study finds supports our model and assumptions.

Download or read book Beyond Budgeting written by Jeremy Hope and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The annual budgeting process is a trap. Pressured by fixed targets and performance incentives, managers focus on making the numbers instead of making a difference, meeting set goals instead of maximizing potential. With their compensation at stake, managers often resort to deceitful-even unethical-behavior. In the end, everybody loses-the employee, the company, and ultimately the customer. Now, finance experts Jeremy Hope and Robin Fraser reveal the results of an intensive study aimed at fixing the broken budgeting process. They argue that companies must abandon traditional budgeting contracts in favor of a radical new model that links performance measurement to evolving competitive benchmarks-and shifts the firm's focus from controlling employee behavior to delivering customer value. The Beyond Budgeting model is built on the best practices of companies that have successfully revised their centralized planning and budgeting processes. It combines a leadership vision that devolves more authority to operating managers and a finance vision that enables fast decision making through appropriate tools and accessible information. Through vivid examples, Hope and Fraser illustrate how companies can implement these shared visions-and the long-term benefits that accrue from embracing them. Offering a compelling case for breaking free from the budgeting trap, this book paves the way toward making organizations better places to work for, invest in, and do business with.
