Management Accounting is a textbook for business management study programmes. It strictly follows a case study-based approach. All methods are discussed by easily understandable cases. The calculations demonstrate how to apply management accounting step by step.
In the first chapters, the case study PENOR PLC about a British windows/doors manufacturer explains the differences between financial accounting (IFRSs) and management accounting. In the next following sections, the textbook covers two points of view: (1) a controlling view, with budgeting, cost-volume-profit analysis, degree of operating leverage, investment appraisal, mergers and cross-border acquisitions and risk valuation (MonteCarloSimulation); (2) a cost accounting view that covers management accounting systems, flexible budgeting, cost allocation methods, performance measurement, monitoring, reporting, product calculation, manufacturing accounting (job order and process costing), activity-based costing, target costing and contribution margin accounting.
