Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2002 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 64% (England = B+), University of the West of England, Bristol (Bristol Business School - Bachelors Degree Business Administration), language: English, abstract: Accounting is an important aspect of management control. Budgets are unarguably the most obvious form of utilising accounting data to monitor and punish or reward strategic business units and consequently employees, regardless of whether they are managers or workers on the shop floor, according to their performance in relation to budgeted targets. “The budget is a financial plan for implementing the various decisions that management has made” (Drury 1997, p. 8). Participation in the formation process of budgets by those ultimately affected is practised in companies with the aim to generate a better-performing workforce. Empirical evidence on the effects of participative budgeting is ambiguous and the literature is fragmented. In this paper, I shall mainly review research on participative budgeting as well as other issues in budgeting and some critical perspectives on budgeting as a means of management control.

Download or read book Organizational Determinants of Budgetary Influence and Involvement written by Noah P. Barsky and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-11 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on network theory from the organizational sociology literature, this book examines issues related to which organizational factors determine how employees influence the budgeting process. Data were collected from managers who participate in the budgeting process at a major apparel manufacturer. Social network analysis was employed to measure how the structure of the network of managers affects the budgeting process. The results show that budgetary influence is structurally determined and resides with managers holding central positions in the organizational network. Thus, while formal procedures determine which employees are involved in budgeting activities, only centrally positioned managers actually influence budgetary outcomes. The findings indicate that influence, not involvement, is the key to empowerment in the budgeting process. This research suggests that researchers and practitioners should be aware of an organization's social structure when examining a participative budgeting process. The difference between formal designs and actual influence is indicative of a "rhetoric-reality gap" which can impair the effectiveness of management control systems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twenty-second volume of Advances in Accounting continues to provide an important forum for discourse among and between academic and practicing accountants on issues of significance to the future of the discipline. Emphasis continues to be placed on original commentary, critical analysis and creative research – research that promises to substantively advance our understanding of financial markets, behavioral phenomenon and regulatory policy. Technology and aggressive global competition have propelled tremendous changes over the two decades since AIA was founded. A wide array of unsolved questions continues to plague a profession under fire in the aftermath of one financial debacle after another and grabbling with the advent of international accounting standards. This volume of Advances in Accounting not surprisingly includes several articles reflective on auditor independence, auditor tenure, auditor rotation and non-audit service fees. This volume also looks at challenges facing the academic community with respect to pressures placed on faculty to publish; a data driven commentary is provided by the in-coming editor of the European Accounting Review. Other papers examine the use of financial data to estimate risk premiums, and measure the operating efficiency of firms; and re-examine market reaction to quarterly earnings. AIA continues its commitment to the global arena by publishing several papers with an international perspective. As never before the accounting profession is seeking ways to reinvent itself and recapture relevance and credibility. AIA likewise continues to champion forward thinking research.*Addresses the role of the auditor*Investigates how financial data is represented, used, and received*Scope of content is international

This book was released on 2019-09-23 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academic Paper from the year 2019 in the subject Leadership and Human Resource Management - Miscellaneous, grade: Post Graduate, University of Gondar, language: English, abstract: This paper investigated the effect of budget participation on job performance in one of the public sectors the Amhara National Regional State (ANRS) HIV/AIDS Prevention Control and Co-ordinations Office (HAPCCO). While studying the relationship between budget participation and job performance the following variables are used as mediating variables: role ambiguity, organizational trust, organizational commitment and budget adequacy. The study is significant for HAPCCO management and regional policy makers on how to improve the office’s performance by considering different variables and other researchers who wish to use the same method and sector/s. Quantitative research design is used. Primary data are collected using structured questionnaire from a sample of 54 employees of HAPCCO selected using stratified random sampling. For data analysis descriptive statistics, correlation, regression and path analysis techniques are employed. The result of the study indicated that budget participation has a direct but insignificant effect on job performance. Besides, budget participation has an indirect positive and significant effect on job performance through mediating variable. Mediating variables have a positive and significant relationship with budget participation with the exception of organizational commitment.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Meaningful Work written by Ruth Yeoman and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-01-03 with total page 533 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of Meaningful Work examines the concept, practices and effects of meaningful work in organizations and beyond. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, this volume reflects diverse scholarly contributions to understanding meaningful work from philosophy, political theory, psychology, sociology, organizational studies, and economics. In philosophy and political theory, treatments of meaningful work have been influenced by debates concerning the tensions between work as unavoidable and necessary, and work as a source of self-realization and human flourishing. This tension has come into renewed focus as work is reshaped by technology, globalization, and new forms of organization. In management studies, much empirical work has focused on meaningful work from the perspective of positive psychology, but more recent research has considered meaningful work as a complex phenomenon, socially constructed from interactive processes between individuals, and between individuals, organizations, and society. This Handbook examines meaningful work in the context of moral and pragmatic concerns such as human flourishing, dignity, alienation, freedom, and organizational ethics. The collection illuminates the relationship of meaningful work to organizational constructs of identity, belonging, callings, self-transcendence, culture, and occupations. Representing some of the most up to date academic research, the editors aim to inspire and equip researchers by identifying new directions and methods with which to deepen scholarly inquiry into a topic of growing importance.
