Management Accounting: Information for Managing Resources and Creating Value Management Accounting: Cost Terms and Concepts 39 The first part of this book introduces management accounting, its purpose and basic concepts. In Chapter 1 management accounting is defined as processes and techniques that are focused on the effective use of organisational...
After completing this chapter, you should be able to: describe the changes that have taken place in the business environment in recent years; define management accounting in terms of value creation; describe the major differences between management accounting and financial accounting information; explain where management accountants are located in ...
We all deal with many different types of organisations as part of our daily lives. Manufacturers, retailers, service providers, not-for-profit organisations and government enterprises provide us with a vast array of goods and services. These organisations seem very different, but they have three things in common. First, every organisation should ha...
refers to the processes and techniques that focus on the effective and efficient use of organisational resources, to support managers in their tasks of enhancing both customer value and shareholder value. Let’s look more closely at this definition. Value creation is a central focus for contemporary managers and can refer to both customer value and ...
A management accounting system is an information system that produces the information required by managers to manage resources and to create value. It forms part of an organisation’s wider man-agement information systems. Management accounting information can be provided on a regular basis and can include estimates of the costs of producing goods a...
It should be clear from the above discussions that the orientation of management accounting is quite different to the external reporting focus of financial accounting. Exhibit 1.1 contrasts manage-ment accounting and financial accounting information. Financial accounting is concerned with preparing and reporting accounting information for parties o...
To appreciate the management accountant’s role in an organisation, we need to understand how
organisations are structured and where the accounting staff may be located. However, the struc-tures of organisations vary considerably and frequently change. Many large South African businesses are structured with a corporate head office and a series of operating divisions. These div-isions may relate to different geographical locations of the com...

So far in this chapter we have explained that management accounting is focused on the effective management of resources to support managers in their quest for improved customer value and shareholder value. But what are the processes and techniques that management accounting uses to
achieve this? Management accounting: supports the organisation’s formulation and implementation of strategy; ■ contributes to improving the organisation’s competitive advantage in terms of quality, delivery, time, flexibility, innovation and cost, through modern process improvement and cost management techniques; Introduction to Management Accounti...

To create shareholder value a business must develop and manage its sources of competitive advan-tage. A well-known model for thinking about competitive advantage was developed by Michael Porter of Harvard University. Competitive advantage refers to advantages that a business may have over another, which are difficult to imitate. Porter suggests tha...
Management accountants should tailor information to support the formulation and implementation of their organisation’s strategies.
Strategic planning is the term given to long-term planning, usually undertaken by senior managers, with a three- to five-year timeframe. Strategic planning involves making corporate strategy decisions about the types of businesses and markets in which the organisation operates, and business (or Introduction to Management Accounting competitive) str...
Once strategies have been formulated, managers at all levels of the organisation share the responsi-bility for implementing them. Management accountants can play an important role in this process using the planning and control systems described below. Long-term plans need to be linked to the budgeting system, to produce annual budgets that support ...
Well-managed organisations focus their objectives and strategies on building and maintaining sources of competitive advantage. To be an effective contributor to strategy, the management accounting information should be shaped around the organisation’s sources of competitive advantage. If a firm competes primarily on the basis of low cost, its manag...
Planning and control systems are a vital element of management accounting. As part of strategy implementation, organisations need to put in place plans to set the direction of the organisation, and control systems to ensure that operations are proceeding according to plan. Planning and control systems provide the framework for effective resource ma...
Planning is a broad concept that is concerned with formulating the direction for future operations. Plans are necessary so an organisation can consider and specify all of the resources that will be needed in the future—whether financial or non-financial. Planning activities occur at many levels within an organisation. As described above, many organ...
Almost every organisation has some sort of plans, whether detailed budgets or something less formal, and managers are responsible for implementing these plans (and sometimes for adapting them to take account of unplanned circumstances). Planning, implementing plans and controlling requires managers to make many decisions; and to make decisions, man...
Effective resource management must also include systems for control. Control involves putting in place mechanisms to ensure that operations proceed according to plan and that objectives are achieved. There is sometimes confusion between the terms ‘planning’ and ‘control’, probably because of their interdependence. Plans will not be effective unless...
Estimates of the cost of producing goods and services are often needed to support a range of oper- ational and strategic decisions that confront managers. In manufacturing firms, and in some service firms, routine systems are established to estimate the cost of goods and services. Sometimes this forms a part of the financial accounting system. Howe...
Several important considerations influence the choice and design of management accounting systems. We will introduce these issues briefly here, and they will be considered further throughout the text.
When designing and implementing management accounting systems, we need to be conscious of the ways in which information impacts on individual behaviour. There may be expected and unex-pected outcomes of management accounting systems. The reactions of both individuals and groups of individuals to management accounting information will significantly ...
We have seen that organisations have objectives or goals. However, organisations are made up of people who have goals of their own. The goals of individuals are diverse, and they do not always match those of the organisation. A key purpose of the management accounting system is to moti-vate managers and other employees to direct their efforts towar...
Asurvey of North American managers examined the type of information that managers used in their day-to-day activities and for performance evaluation. Accounting information was found useful for performance evaluation, but inadequate for the management and control of oper-ational tasks. Many managers had given up using accounting reports and had dev...
